Bristol is a good night out. I like his thinking. 
 

That accent though. 

[Kempes]

I just hope the last Rovers manager is not heading to Perth.  Barton’s last visit north of the border was short, but still too long for my liking.

Feeling very,very sorry for the Bristol Rovers fans right now.

Sure seems like Leveins the one theyve picked.

Not as sorry as people will feel for Saints fans when they appoint Avril

I imagine that would be a bit misplaced. Regardless of his ability, we’ll be seeing an instant improvement in results with an actual football manager in charge of our club for the first time since 2020.  It wouldn’t take anything too special to get this talented squad of players up the league.

Not too sure! I did hear he was acting as an adviser in the process?

It is a bit "Duck arse tight" any leaking information though.

I hope thats all it is, he fails the "vibe test" badly for me.

Wonder if we'll get white smoke from the kirk today. 

Brechin is well known for its Cathedral...

He might be the best of "Not a Lot" so what can you do?

Mabey be a Steve Clark moment like what he did at Kilmarnock.

Aye, id rather Levein than Brown or Mulgrew etc.

[The Real Saints]

From the most recent names mentioned, I would be satisfied with Craig Levein or Tam Courts. The Robbie Neilson links seem to have gone quiet.

So, if the assistant rumours are true, Brechin may be hunting for a new manager.

I'm not ITK whatsoever but I think that's exactly what Kyle was implying with his Kirk reference just took me 5 hours to get it. 

Heard the rumour too and did wonder whether he'd want to bring anyone from Brechin to work with him... So makes sense. 

[RandomGuy.]

Presumably would mean we've told him Kirk is taking charge after this season too.

[SJFCtheTeamForMe]

Surely that's insane?

Aye. Hiring someone whos barely managed in the last decade then replacing him with someone whos never managed above the Highland League.

But I'd be amazed if Levein agrees to the job without picking his successor, as he seems obsessed with that, and I'd be surprised if Kirk gave up a managers job thats seeing him winning leagues and likely to get a promotion soon to be our assistant for 6 months before being punted when a new man wants a new assistant.

Is Kirk part time at Brechin 

[The Real Saints]

Alternatively, we’re about to hire a former Scotland manager who has a decent enough record in the top league and a wide knowledge of Scottish football despite being absent from the managerial merry-go-round in recent years. By all accounts, he’ll be bringing Andy Kirk along as his assistant, which makes sense because he knows him well and he appears to be a talented young-ish manager who would naturally jump at the chance to make the significant step up from Highland League manager to Scottish Premiership assistant.

Just trying to balance out Random’s post here because it sucked the life out of me.
