AlbionMan Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 (edited) 11 hours ago, ??? said: Heard a rumour Darren Barr may be interested. Decent career spent at a high level, probably curtailed due to injuries. Recently been doing youth work at Morton then Airdrie. Thoughts? Played for us for 6 months, became Interim manager when Dave McKay left, moved on when Kevin Rutkiewicz appointed. They swapped jobs he took over as assistant manager at Annan from KR, he left them 3 years ago. Doesn’t seem likely, but that may depend on the job and man profile and if a senior figure was to be brought in as a mentor.

Like others, I would rather not a rookie appointment. Does jim jeffries want it Have we a few pakora pies we could bribe him with 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the Albion board's version of cutting off their nose to spite their face? They don't appear to be doing much to please/appease the Albion fans. Such a shame for a good wee club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are people who thought our wee club was so attractive to experienced managers that it would be so easy peasy to find one. They were never off our former chairman's back about getting nothing but applications from rookies to choose from. Well now they're getting a taste of reality mate and trust me they've got it coming. Sadly, the supporters deserve better. Most of them anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure if he was given the reins there would be whiplash to go with the backlash At least we got some correspondence today...our fixtures for the Premier sports cup...special exemption for a 5 a side team...ref can stop the game after it gets to 6-0 against us... Spenny signs for the Shire Banner signs for Stenny Scouse for Stranraer Pabs for Cowdenbeath BC for Cumnock Never thought I'd see the day this happened Manager, Asst Manager, Doc, physio, kitman gone Leitch, Weir, Dunsy gone What a mess 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Looks like it is official https://kilwinningrangers.com/club-update-chris-aitken-resigns-from-kilwinning-rangers/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3eRTG-GV6GLAyDSzd4RB8oOItcpCfvH5ojE3L9KMBWrSJBPKN6gRCAcZE_aem_AasyODvE1K8B3rsu_ywVz47_854osvX95UpcKmEeESu0Q4aqWCqwqKlPOjMP3X5ePzd6vh20AU7Ewy10x8KGDT_B Probably best not to read the Kilwinning thread in the West of Scotland forum. Alot of their fans wanted him punted before this news 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not even managed in SPFL. Wasn't his biggest fan but to go from DY to this, if true, is a shocker. The board couldn't have done worse in the last month.

Quentin Taranbino Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 I think his managerial record at Kilwinning is: Won 18 Drawn 7 Lost 24 Relegated last season from Tier 6 (after coming into the club in Feb) Finished 7th this season in Tier 7 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unitedbino Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 Aitken is a hugely underwhelming appointment. I was willing to give the benefit of the doubt over sacking DY until we knew what the plan was. It's clear now there was no plan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
