Don't think it was ever confirmed (and doubt it ever will) but it was well known that Tony McInally was on his way out at Darvel and Mick Oliver was coming in several weeks prior to Tony being sacked and there was certainly no love lost between Tony and Mick Kennedy over comments made so I dont think it takes a lot of mental gymnastics to get to that the above potentially being the case!

Darvel legend Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 23 minutes ago, Westy1 said: Oliver is out his depth here. Just watched his interview, Lose 3 games and the excuses around losing players and other teams budgets come out again. Absolute no responsibility taken, his recruitment has not been good enough. What I didn’t get was him and his back room team having a Blether for a good 5 minutes at half time after getting a complete doing in the first half whilst the players were in dressing room 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Knowledge of the level. I think he’s out his depth. Zero responsibility from him or Broadfoot. I think you have to question their morals as well. There was a lot went on behind the scenes that Ashfield never knew about and McInally wasn’t meant to know about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must be surely trying to sign 2 central defenders or he is out of his depth but the guy might be trying to and hitting a brick wall , word doesn’t take long to get around as players talk and when u lose 14 players from last season its plain to see it’s no a bed of roses doon the brae , that team have no chance of staying up even this early on in the season unfortunately 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanner Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Not that I'm losing sleep over I but I'm genuinely surprised at Darvel being where they are right now. Are they a better side than the start suggests or are they going to be in the relegation fight? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanner as it stands with no new signings that team won’t be in a relegation fight , they are going down 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the outside it's not really looking like the controlled descent to a manageable and stable way of running the club that was promised. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy1 Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 I heard it being said on one of the podcast shows last week they may struggle and laughed it off, but this is relegation form after 10% of games. Oliver has surprisingly just made Jordan Allan club captain, so I would be surprised if he was looking to replace him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parkranger Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 (edited) Mick's a good young manager just took the wrong option in going to a basket case of a club. Should have took an interest in clubs up his way prime example KRR or waited for an opportunity instead of diving into this shitshow.

I think he probably he is and doesn’t need me to tell him what’s needed but I just wonder how much of the 18k we got for Syme he has been given for new players , according to club social media he was getting it to strengthen the squad , as of yet we have brought no one in 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's that good a manager 1 why would u take the job knows what's coming that everyone knew eas going to happen 2 why would he take the job the way he got the job and 3 why Darvel surely he knew they didn't have money 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy1 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I think he looks like a decent young coach with good ideas. time will tell on the management side, but 0 from 9pts So far in the premier. Full of excuses and budget talk when things not going his way and the way he got where he is? Not for me. definitely a downgrade on McInally 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
