rb123! Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Brian Rice is certainly still desperate to get back in to management so i'm pretty sure he'll want our job, wouldn't rule him out since the water may have cooled a bit on Bartley with him on the bench for Livi today https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/brian-rice-believes-should-vehicle-25781455 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go away, sonny Apologies for the upset, and I know that Bergkamp might be a wee bit expensive considering, but how about Donald John MacNeil for your next manager as he's turned Mallaig Rangers around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The talk for us is he's Bartley's replacement if he leaves.

He seems to overthink things as a relatively inexperienced manager and I'm not sure Bartley has the experience to know it's wrong either. Could honestly see either of Rice/Miller end up at either club. Even at that, I feel we could throw in a late temptation to Bartley and offer him the job at the end of the season to stay with us It's Martindale's ultimate destiny to end up in a Director of Football position with us and Bartley would be a natural heir. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anyone else working at Livi that you could see Bartley having as part of a backroom staff? I'd be hoping he has scope to bring in 1 or 2 of his own guys to work with him and help him out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North British Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 I wonder if recently removed Morecambe assistant coach John McMahon would be a person of interest in our hunt for and experienced no2 ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have much experience in the backroom and we're apparently looking to bring more in right now. Most of the other background staff have been at the club 10+ years and probably wouldn't move (physio etc). I would've said possibly Imrie as assistant but he's off to the big job at Morton so even that's gone. Marvin does have decent contacts though, he got Efe to sign with us, same for Omeonga. I can possibly see him bringing someone older from Hibs with him someone like Darren McGregor maybe? If he's even looking to get into the management side of things anyway. I'd imagine David Gray would be looking for a managers job so maybe not him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's tricky because with the vast majority of managers on the merry go round up here you can make an educated guess as to who they will bring in to work alongside them. However with Bartley he's a complete unknown and he's only played for 2 clubs up here. Could maybe see him bringing in someone he played with in England or maybe Mathie will be able to bring someone in that he thinks can work with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
