McExpat Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Who's Next ? Across the bookies the following candidates are mostly listed as the favourites, David Moyes Malkay Mackay Alex McLeish Paul Lambert Derek McInnes Scot Gemmill with some terrifying & ridiculous wild card suggestions coming in the form of Allardyce, Coyle, Lennon etc Who do you think will be the next Scotland manager ? Who would you like to be the next Scotland manager ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 To mamy fans fisappointment it seems the SFA are not keen at all on a foreign option. That being the case I would go for Derek McInnes. If they want am older hand I would take McLeish over Moyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Rubble Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Who do I think? McKay or Moyes. Who would I like? Kenny Dalglish or Sir Alex, but they've got more sense and don't need the hassle. So a tandem of Steve Clarke and Scott Gemmill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlesgaArab Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 If they appointment Mackay, will not be renewing SSC membership for first time in 15 years. Its bad enough having him as performance director, he shouldn’t be anywhere near the managers job. what sort of message does that send out.

Malcolm Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Mcleish or mcinnes.... don't think mcinnes would take it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringo Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I think Steve Clark would be a good option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McExpat Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 From that lot I think I'd go with wanting the SFA to give Moyes a go at the job. A part of me wouldn't mind seeing McLeish get it but the other part of me wouldn't be happy with rewarding him again after he walked out on us last time. McInnes is tempting but I feel it's not the right time for him. MacKay - Please No! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manno Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I didn't have faith in the SFA to sack him/not renew his contract, and am pleasantly surprised they have decided to change, but I have little faith in them getting it right - whatever that means. I think they will appoint Moyes. i would prefer that we appointed one of the following ridiculous scenarios: 1) Northern Ireland and/or the Republic of Ireland go out in the play offs and either Michael or Martin O'Neill become available. I'm not advocating their philosophy/style of play, but they get the best out of their 'limited resources' and know how to organise a team, something Strachan has failed to do. Some of the Irish results away from home are envious - Hungary, Greece (NI) Germany, Austria, Wales (RoI). 2) A 'godfather' of Scottish football type appointment - Sir Alex, Walter Smith, Kenny Dalglish - with a younger former international as assistant - John Collins, Gary McAllister, David Weir, even Ally McCoist. 3) A 'godfather' of Scottish football type appointment as above, but with a younger Scottish manager/coach as assistant to be mentored for the role in a few years - Derek McInnes the obvious choice, Neill McCann, Steven Pressley etc. 4) Go foreign. Hiddink, Van Gaal, De Boer, Blanc all available, Advocaat and Laagerback should be consulted. Lars Olsen has been mentioned on other posts. All of the above would of course be dependent on the SFAs actual willingness to change and progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan Chris Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I honestly think McLeish will get another crack at it. He wants the job, no club to have to pay compo, his results were pretty good last time so if he could repeat that in a much weaker group than 2007 there would be a good chance of qualfiying and his dour, defensive play (I had a year of watching it) is perfectly suited to International football.

Tom English said tonight on Radio Scotland tonight that he'd be suprised if he gets it. SFA had a job justifying him for performance director never mind the managers role. Said they also cant be seen to be hiring again for performance director. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

girvanTA Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 The sfa are not going to be looking to pay any compensation unless its pennies. They'll have drawn up a shortlist of 5 managers who are Scottish. I really dont think that they want a foreign coach but if they do, I'd imagine it will be a pretty swift appointment and given a friendly game in November. Moyes, Lambert, McLeish Clarke and Jim Duffy (min comp) Foreign Hiddink, poss Van Gaal might be interested but both would command a hefty wage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
