lichtie23 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 McIntyre is one of the many names Iv heard. Think in total Iv heard 8 or 9. All just rumours tho with no concrete evidence 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit of a McIntyre fan boy really after he won us the title, I think he's quite harshly viewed in terms of how he's done as a manager, as a whole. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokerson Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Calum Davidson is the man for me. McIntyre I am not so sure about, seems to have done fairly well though so maybe wouldn't be the worst. We are where we are, it will be the dogfight of all dogfights with not one team isolated so it will be tough job and the new many will have a short period to get at least 3 or4 players in next month. Our current squad would probably be in the bottom 2 especially with the bad luck with injuries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically do you think he will have even thought twice about even taking this on? He turned down a chance to take over a much bigger newly promoted Premiership side in Dundee where he had an opportunity to do a total rebuild with how many of them were out of contract just 6 month ago. Can’t see why he’d have any interest in moving to a part time club at the bottom of the Championship. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlichtie Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 McIntyre has a good record apart from Dundee and seems a bit unfortunate to have been fired by Cove apparently to make way for Hartley. Good contacts in the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicesterlichtie Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Would imagine an appointment announcement would maybe coincide alongside a training session, so a video interview may take place, even though formalities and photos done at Gayfield beforehand. Of most of the common names being touted on here, majority seem to similar win percentages to DC, so results could be similar, but hopefully the football on the park might be more pleasing on the eye. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DD11 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Jim McInally at Gayfield just now apparently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Not overly keen on the thought of McInally - not a fan of listening to him talk and seems too similar to DC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tattie36 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) Jim McIntyre wouldn’t be my first choice but he does have a pretty good track record. I’m 100% certain he would have kept Cove up last season and they looked decent in the games I saw them play when he was in charge. A concern is that he’s never managed a part time team so it that would be new for him. Sorry I’m talking bollocks - Cove were part time we he was there.

par-adise Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Think you could do worse than McIntyre tbh. Although he only has one way of playing (hope you have the personnel for 4-4-2?). Any news on McKenna's injury he picked up at EEP? I would think he would be very important for your chances of staying up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still probably be out for another month to six weeks I’d guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Had a feeling it would be him. Met him in Glasgow after we got pumped 2-0 by Partick Thistle towards the end of last season and he was a thoroughly decent bloke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
