St Johnstone's Next Permanent Manager

[Ludo*1]

Usual list of no hopers and realistic targets apply.

I know some clubs like to go outwith the managerial merry go round, but personally I can’t see St Johnstone appointing a referee as manager.

[MazzyStar]

Callum Davidson won two trophies in one season. He has to be in with a shout. 

[PauloPerth]

Feels so weird seeing a St Johnstone new manager thread. 

[Center half]

Get Steve Lomas back!  Entertaining as f**k (allegedly)!

 

[mizfit]

I suspect it’ll be Liam Craig.

[jagfox]

Staunch Tommy, to get the Saints, right back on track!

[PauloPerth]

Shame Jody Morris took the Swinton job in January this year. Can’t see us being prepared to buy out a 2 1/2 year contract.

Horrific run of results since he was appointed !

[The Saintee]

I'd like to wait and see who applies.

[Miguel Sanchez]

Guid honest laddies need sum confidunce.

Yes, it's not going well at all there. Already rumours kicking around. He'll no see that contract out.

Tommy Wright until the Summer pls.

Not a fan of going backwards and wouldnt be a fan of it long term again, but if we want someone to come in, give the squad confidence, and get the whole club going again (fans included) he seems such an obvious candidate.

Keep us up then the new owners can make their choice in the Summer.

[tree house tam]

Kevin Thomson out of that list for me. I don't particularly like him as a person but f**k it, we need someone young and different. 

[Empty It]

Wonder what Robbie Neilson is up to.

IF Tommy Wright came in, & kept you up, do you not think he’d get it long-term?

Why go back to that dinosaur? 

[Lofarl]

Jack Ross.  Knows how to beat Hibs with a St Johnstone side.  Actually do think he has a chance at getting the gig.

If the stories are true we might have new owners soon, so i think theyd potentially want to make their own decision. I personally wouldnt want him long term as i think the whole club has grown stale and he would just continue that, it needs jump started in the Summer.

As for why i want him now, we have a good squad who need confidence. Hes a motivator and would also get fans right behind him too. We arent far away from safety so a couple of results swing it for us and hes definitely capable of giving us a bounce. Hes more likely to accept a short term deal than a Neilson type too, which is handy as i want the new owners in this Summer hiring someone fresh and new. Neilson is just a continuation of Davidsons turgid, rigid, pish.

Hes not interested in being a manager again, currently behind the scenes with Newcastles development sides.

Doubt he'd want it. Got a nice wee earner at Newcastle that probably gives hom a lot more stability.
