Otis Blue Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Kevin Thomson's the obvious target for Rovers, next step up etc ... of course the fact that this might weaken Kelty next season does not colour my judgement here ... not in any way ... absolutely not ... never crossed my mind ... etc, etc ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair it’s him or preferably Ian Murray for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RosscoRiot Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 2 hours ago, Been going too long said: Why mcpake ? Seriously what qualities do you think he/you have to carry us forward? 1. Play attractive attacking football? 2. attract young prospects and develop them to be sold on? 3. Link well with local community ( mostly) Or sign some big name players and stumble over the line in play offs? Haha the stumble over the line is the play offs I'd take. He's tried and tested in the championship but fair enough lacked the nous in the Premiership. However I feel that the job would be too soon for someone like Kevin Thompson. But if we could get someone in that will promote youth, play a decent style of football and not sign alleged rapist that would be a promising start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That last bit is right up thomsons street according to Kelty fans, he plays attractive football, plays youth, Can get strikers firing and probably wouldn’t sign a Grade A C**t in DG 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me mcpake is too similar to Gary Locke , passionate football guy but ultimately failed in his last job, can he improve as a coach definitely but he is part of that sport scene lot and I don’t really want any of them as even if he fails it won’t be his fault. I don’t see him developing young players to sell on I really don’t 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We definitely need a coach/manager that will develop youth and punt on eg Bowie and Tait as thats how we keep the club running 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 That last bit is right up thomsons street according to Kelty fans, he plays attractive football, plays youth, Can get strikers firing and probably wouldn’t sign a Grade A C**t in DG I'm sure most managers would be able to achieve such a thing when their budget dwarfed everyone elses. Allan Johnston did the same thing with us in League 1 and Pepe Guardiola has made a career from it. I think Raith would be a proper challenge for Thomson and one might not fancy taking on as a result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite something to be condescending about Johnston, Thomson and Pep all in the same post, but hats off to you, you made it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Replays Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Can’t see it being Danny Lennon. Certainly not impossible but he signed a new deal at Clyde a fortnight ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
