Pride_of_the_Clyde Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 As if. Why on Earth would Bollan leave a fairly historic club with terrific facilities, some support, a track record with young players and within Greater Glasgow to go to, respectfully, a village side who for almost their entire history have been in the bottom or next-to-bottom division in Scotland, albeit they have a good colour scheme.

theSilverFox Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 We have been in the play offs almost every year......some names were Malpas...Cooper-Anderson....MurrayDanny Lennon? He would have been a step in the right direction. Will give Bollan a chance but not at all inspired by this appointment, as I already said, not better than the previous manager or yesterday's temp.

He's from and lives in Dundee, why would he want to continue to travel to the land of the unwashed is what you should be asking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theoriginalhedge Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 I remember similar stories about Bollan being favourite for the Brechin job before Ray McKinnon was appointed. He even convinced himself that he had the job and handed in his resignation at his day job. Would have loved to be his boss when he asked for the resignation to be withdrawn.

Tulloch Gorum Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Colin Paterson, who writes for the Airdrie and Coatbridge advertiser, and is generally pretty spot-on, has just posted this on Twitter:Gary Bollan has left Airdrieonians to become Forfar Athletic's new manager. Club statement from the Diamonds expected shortly. Colin doesn't post nonsense and rumours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
