Your Club's Manager, as a Player

What if we include assistant managers?

I think Raith probably win that one with Colin Cameron. 

Dave Bowman is on the staff at Dundee United but not sure if he’s actually assistant manager or not. His peak was a wee bit before my time though.

Bump!

 

How would you rate them now? For me it is as follows:

1. Duncan Ferguson

2. Lee Bullen

3. Ian Murray

4. Jim McIntyre

5. James McPake

6. Kris Doolan

7. Jim Goodwin

8. Rhys McCabe

9. Dougie Imrie

10. Vacant

 

You could make a pretty decent team from the managers in the Championship (when they were in their prime).

Who would be the keeper? Hoping Tommy Wright fills the vacant position?

McCabe was excellent but ravaged by injuries. He's top 5. Easily.

I'm not sure, I've always had him as a league one midfielder tbh.

James McPake above Doolan is a wild shout. Would have Doolan above him and McIntyre.

The only issue I'd have with that list is that Doolan is too high tbh, let's be brutally honest here, if he was better he'd have had a move to a bigger side through his career. 

Good player, great servant for Partick, but he's only above McCabe imo.

Pish. He had opportunities to move to bigger clubs in Scottish Premiership, but was happy at Thistle.

Ooft, imagine thinking that Dougie Imrie had a better career as a player than Kris Doolan.

Imrie and McCabe can fight it out for tenth. McCabe probably could’ve had a decent career if it wasn’t for injuries. I’m amazed he’s actually still playing regularly for Airdrie given he wasn’t that great at QoS a few years back.

Doolan was one of those strikers where if he’d played for one of the big clubs in Scotland he’d have scored double the amount of goals he did. Far better player than Imrie for me.

He was a player I always wanted us to sign. 

Unfortunately he was past his best when we did actually sign him.

McCall absolutely knew what he was doing by signing Doolan. Ended up contributing to Caldwell being sacked and the job opening up for him.

At their peaks? If you're offering me Imrie or Doolan I'm absolutely taking Imrie. 

Yes, at their peaks. I’ll take the guy who scored double figures worth of goals 8 seasons in a row (5 of them while Thistle were in the top flight).

Didn’t even realise this was a players at their ‘peak’ discussion, makes your Imrie over Doolan shout seem even more ridiculous then IMO.
