St Johnstone's Next Permanent Manager - 24/25 Edition

[Theyellowbox]

Doubt saints will be going for McGlynn regardless, but if we wanted to, we could easily just go and get him. I dare say at his age and given how precarious football management can be and has been for him, he might take the view of better the devil you know. But if you have a straight choice between managing a potential championship winning side vs a potential relegation candidate based on where each club sits in September, then on paper it is a no brainer. Falkirk will not run away with this league in the way Utd and Dundee have done in recent years. 

Aside from the standard 3 year deals we give to every manager it seems, he would be stepping into a club who is going through a bit of a revamp top to bottom and I'd imagine any manager would back themselves to keep us up.

Can argue the toss about what an extra 1k fans might bring or not, but the finances at Saints have and will have, piss all over Falkirks even if in the same league.

Irrelevant though as he won't be the next saints manager anyway.

Is Andy Kirk still in the running?

Good to see our fans mixing with the big boys St Johnstone fans and not Kelty fans these days.

Morecambe are rooted at the bottom of League 1 with one point. Would be a good time to poach Derek Adams. 

It's even better than that, they rock bottom of League 2!

Now Scott Gardiner seems to be out of being a Chief Executive it seems like a good time for him to transition into a new career, as a football manager.

Unless he really doesn’t want it, surely Alex Cleland must be in with a shout?   Not the most glamorous appointment, but one which causes the least possible upheaval.

Surely Martin Canning's experience of winning tough relegation battles makes him the ideal candidate?

He's said before he doesn't want to be a manager.

Hang on Falkirk fans are bad enough, but why the f**k are we being subjected to even bigger "no mark" Ayr fans right now!?

McBookie has Paul Sheerin as third favourite for you guys. 

[Girth]

Lord Bryan of Rice?

[Irosshed and I was wrong]

Hope it's Ian Murray because he's a good charver.

Also hope it's John McGlynn because it would be some laugh.

Yeah, I like McBookie but the early odds are generally just names he can think of.
