hk blues Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 22 minutes ago, kennysmassiveego said: I was thinking more along the lines of a stellar coach , eg Steve McLaren/Bruce etc an out of work manager with a pedigree in the EPL or championship who wishes to refresh his resume . IMO SSC has shown what a decent coach can do and I fully expect him to manage again in England after what he’s done up here . Obviously the board have to be prepared to invest the money but surely relegation is worse ? No way a decent and out of work EPL or championship manager is coming up to Scotland to manage Dundee or the likes t.b.h. Have you seen the calibre of candidates whenever a position up here becomes vacant? McLaren and Bruce and the likes are simply not realistic options - even if the board were willing to get the wallet out. Would you have been able to attract a guy of the quality of Steve Clarke without the local connection? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Airdrie and Dumbarton another 2 Scottish clubs bulleting their manager. McCann will be the longest serving manager in Scotland at this rate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you have been able to attract a guy of the quality of Steve Clarke without the local connection? Was just thinking that. Steve Clarke managing Killie is an anomaly due to the fact that he knows the chairman or is related to him or something. Edit - He's literally doing it for his mate/relative, whatever the relationship is. And he's admitted as much.

Ludo*1 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Did we ever make a Chief of Academy appointment? I know Boyle and McPake are the go to guys in our youth set-up but I remember Ian Murray was linked with a role as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that not before the club decided against opting for a high role of project brave? I thought that was a part of that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember the club issued a really assuring statement about how with both administrations being in living memory that we were not going to throw money at something that did not guarantee results or make financial sense. I'll try find it for you.

About 18 months over due on site clearance and two months over due on an update. DCC planning application portal hasn't been updated on the project since October 2017 and a community feedback verdict due to be delivered January this year also came to pass. Fat load of f**k all to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fully expect some cheaply built, LEGOLAND comments etc about McDiarmid but it just seems to be dragging on for you boys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m more concerned about staying in the top league tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still miss Muirton park tbh but needs must, that was the catalyst for us becoming Taysides undisputed top team, taken a wee while but we got there in the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when the multis get built on Dens you can go up the closey, step over a few wasted junkies and reminisce about the Derry toilets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
