Raith Rovers' Next Permanent Manager

[Scary Bear]

I’m don’t want to tempt fate by voting Yogi.

Absolutely none of those, fed up with the Scottish managerial merry go round. What's Paquito doing these days?

Have went Hughes in lieu of there being no "McGlynn 2: The revenge" option.

It would be McGlynn 3: The reckoning.

Can't believe Robin Veldman isn't on the list

On a serious note I'll be jumping for joy if yous pick up Ian McCall, purely because of the inconvenience for his current club

Agreed. When you look at what he's done with Airdrie it's a no-brainer. I'm guessing that the way Raith have been piling out the wads (in a totally unsustainable manner I'd add) they'll make him a ludicrous offer.

Whenever we sign anyone from Airdrie it goes bad. Don’t do it. We should ban ourselves from ever signing any player or manager from Airdrie. It always goes wrong and we never learn our lesson. From Kenny McDonald onwards. Our record signing was from Airdrie and he was a disaster.

Wtf was that all about?  Losing to Airdrie is bad but it’s hardly a sackable offence.

Should get Marvin Bartley in btw

Rhys McCabe would jump at the chance of the Raith job if offered. Much bigger club and pay rise.

Much bigger? Hardly!

If we’re being honest, we shat the bed after we beat Dundee Utd in February

[Ian Mcleod]

Out of that list Bowyer, Imrie and Thompson are probably the best options Raith won't get McCabe imagine he'll get a good premiership job or a job down south if he was to leave Airdrie. Would be a good laugh if they end up with a Hughes, Hartley or a Ferguson though.

Craig Levein has unfinished business with Raith, and supports them. No brainer for the board.

Nae Stuart Baxter?

Was that a certain Paul Bonar

He was another poor purchase but it was Paul Harvey who is our record signing. Think we spunked £200k on him.

We also signed Kenny McDonald for £80k in 1989. He was another shadow of the player he was at Airdrie.

McCabe is the only one on that list I'd happily take, however don't think he'll be tempted to leave Airdrie

Wow, never saw this one coming.

Not sure McCabe would take that risk when he's clearly got things going his way at Airdrie just now.  Plus, the recent precedent of leaving Airdrie for Raith isn't good ... tends to lead to the sack.

For the record Kenny MacDonald was one of my favourites ever players and was gutted when he left,   we won a watch when you bought Bonar and especially Harvey he dined out on that Scottish cup performance at Starks the rest of his career.

Callum Fordyce as player manager?

It wasn’t just that Scottish Cup performance. Harvey was outstanding in every game against us. I thought he’d be brilliant. Then he got to Kirkcaldy and it all went wrong.

Dylan Easton has been pretty good signing.

Rhys McCabe is who Raith will want. Kevin Thomson or Tam Courts is who they will get.
