williebraveheart Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 (edited) In many ways I am not entirely surprised that Coyle is "going". Most managers whose teams performed as we did over the last ten games or so would be on a shoogly peg. With a small squad he was perhaps limited in choice but he seemed devoid of any fresh ideas or tactics throughout this period. His chopping and changing gave nobody a chance to dig in and develop. His critics before he joined suggested that his achilles heel was spotting replacement talent. Eze, McPake, Henderson, Kenny are testament to that. When Murray went the 4-2-3-1 should have gone with it, but no he persisted with people who were not suited to that system. I have been loathe to criticise before now but I have felt for some time that Coyle was one dimensional in his thinking. I have enjoyed the season immensely if not the final chapter but with Beuker on board I am confident a decent replacement will be found, perhaps not from UK. As for B team in pyramid - forget it. It all makes following the Spiders that bit more interesting. Edited May 15, 2023 by williebraveheart 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially, but it is the Daily Ranger, so tempted to hang-fire, that said.... Five loanees, including Boateng, Oakley and Shields, the rumour that Fox had signed a pre-contract elsewhere, Savoury out injured long-term and a back line that needed major surgery all in addition to his Thistle post-match mentioning about lack of squad depth, maybe he's just thought the job next year is too large or too much of a struggle. Maybe the budget isn't as big as everyone thinks it is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith Against The Machine Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Maybe Owen Coyle would've gotten on slightly better if he knew the name of the division he was trying to reach. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I am legitimately over the moon that Coyle’s last act as Queen’s Park manager was getting fucking pumped by us. Get it right up the sad Airdrie b*****d. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pens_Dark Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Can't be many times in footballing history that two managers who battled out a title deciding game leave so quickly after. Scottish football is madness. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t speak for your man, but that statement from Coyle has “if you want your money, walk away and take the hit” all over it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm sure MB's good and all that, but where's he going to find someone to annoy, Dundee, Greenock, Ayr, Airdrie and anyone else's fans in equal measure? NB, edited, sorry, missed out Thistle.

an86 Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 No stadium, no manager, no leadership. Embarrassing. The B teams can get directly into the bin. These people don’t give a shit about our supporters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Beuker’s done his scouting job well there should be a list ready, or at least partially pending the manager’s input, and they need to be on the phone now. As we know, the club has bounced a couple of coaches recently when it comes time to get the cheque book out. Probably not van Gaal but a young Dutchmen wouldn’t surprise me at all. Or a Spaniard or Italian. Beuker was talking about having Atletici Madrid people over recently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Radiohead summed it up nicely; 'you do it to yourself, you do and that's what really hurts, you do it to yourself, just you, you and no-one else' 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
