Superhursty7 Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 (edited) I would get it if it was Aberdeen or Hibs and no disrespect to St Johnstone but this seems at best a sideways step not a step up looking at the current circumstances at both clubs Edited September 25 by Superhursty7 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Problemo Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Embarrassing stuff from Brown. To leave a squad you have just put together in the lurch so early into the season is so poor, fair enough if it was Hibs etc. I don’t think it makes much sense from anyone’s perspective tbh. He has had a few decent games at the start of this season, so I’m not entirely sure what St Johnstone are actually looking at. Ian Murray is probably the best fit for us - decent style of play but not entirely wedded to it and happy to go direct in moments. He’ll also be incredibly motivated after the Raith situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizzo Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Sore one for Ayr if Brown leaves. Wonder how much Dowds injury and Falkirks form may sway him. I don't see St Johnstone as a step up if ayr could genuinely challenge. That's a potential play off final between the two clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Are the club not going to be commenting on this like they didn't with the Raith job. Is this made an approach bit been leaked to prepare us for the big news. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rb123 Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Wouldn't be surprised tbh if in his contract is a clause about if a Premiership club comes calling we won't stand in your way... Wonder if Whittaker may want to hang around because as long as he stays in Brown's shadow he's forever going to be ignored for the work he does. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callum-ayr Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Should be a clause that if he goes he has to take 2 of the f**king shite goalkeepers with him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rb123 Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Just now, UpInTheAyr said: Are the club not going to be commenting on this like they didn't with the Raith job. Is this made an approach bit been leaked to prepare us for the big news. Not exactly leaked VOR has confirmed an official approach has been made to the club. Would imagine just now a hastly arranged board meeting will be taking place involving Brown and his agents 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super_carson Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 A huge gamble for Brown. Already has a sacking from Fleetwood on his CV so needs to be absolutely sure that St. Johnstone would work out for him, otherwise it leaves question marks about whether or not he can manage at higher levels. At Ayr he's likely to have more leeway if there's a poor run of form. Also, he gets a lot of backing from Smith and it would look really poor that he just ups and leaves. Would he enjoy the same level of relative support and freedom at St Johnstone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superhursty7 Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 Any one think there should be a transfer window for managers as well as players, you can only appoint a manager from a club in a job in the summer and winter windows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 I mean it is only an approach, if we get an in talks then it's likely done and dusted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 I don't think he'll go. With the backing and team he has been building, giving Ayr another 12-18 months could see him walk in to a much bigger job than St Johnstone. 12-18 months at St Johnstone might lead to a top 6 finish in the premier. He's not saving much travelling time, he's not short of money and Smith will presumably be doing everything to keep him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
