To then be rejected by said coach 53 days before their European campaign starts because they couldnt agree terms with some FM regen coaches. You could extend this back to 2012. 'One of the biggest clubs in the world' being given a free hit at building themselves an advantage to stand for at least a generation but completely failing to modernise the infrastructure of their club because they were obsessed with winning titles that they couldn't lose, and ultimately ending up trophyless and weeks from a Champions League qualifier with nobody steering the ship. Tinpot in the extreme. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody suggesting the top clubs are being held back by the small ones is insane and is a worrying part of the Scottish football landscape.

Again, I may have misinterpreted but did he say ‘top teams are being held back’ or did he say ‘some of the top teams feel they’re being held back by lower league clubs’. It’s quite a big difference and I interpreted it as the latter and it’s undoubtedly true. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wealthy man with a very good reputation turning down the biggest job in Scotland because the board of said biggest club couldnt get their arse in gear. The notion that Howe is somehow in the wrong not taking the job given the circumstances is wild 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If either of the arse cheeks had came with this pish we would all be slaughtering them. Disappointing to see any Dundee fans here or on theor thread defending him. Absolute arsehole comments and wildly out of place.

The Old First Division was worth £69,500 to the winners in 2012-13, it's now worth nearly £700,000 in 2020-21. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safe to say our owner and chairman from that time aren’t exactly popular with pars fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't care for either Celtic of Howe, but I still feel this was a missed opportunity for him. I wouldn't say he was "wrong" to turn down the job but, to me, he has shat the bed when he had one of the best chances of gaining honours and European experience. If he's decided against it because some of his backroom staff were not keen to move North, then all that suggests to me is that he not confident in his own ability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
