dipped flake Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I've stopped going to Scotland games so it shouldn't really bother me but people willing to forget Smith running out from the job the last time just beggars belief. He was a dinosaur years ago when he retired and is the very last person who should be considered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not have Gemmill working alongside him for a campaign? Jesus. He's not what we need right now, he's another dinosaur that is out of the game for a reason. And as for having Gemmill working alongside side him, just look at how that worked out for far Sally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A CEO who predicts "social unrest" if a team isn't parachuted in to the top division is heading in a positive direction? A CEO who continually talks down our game is heading in a positive direction? You've got me baffled as to this positive direction we were heading in with those two failures in senior positions. I was being sarcastic.

Probably just them trying to throw an olive branch out to the Huns who have left their country because of the way the “SFA treated them”. He gets appointed I’m done.

er yir macaroon Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 The appointment of Smith would rid the Scitland support of some of its more poisonous element and attract some fair minded Rangers. fans (there are some). Uniting Scottish football whilst filtering out the bile at either extreme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I would take Clarke but the scenario I mentioned is possible. And no I wouldn't want a shite manager hence my protests when Allardyce, Dickov.and Mackay have been linked with the job.

Would be another terrible appointment for numerous reasons already mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And again how do u define Scottish English or whatever? Fact is Allaydyce has two Scottish parents, four Scottish grandparents. So qualified to play for Scotland six times over. Zero English blood in his body (and his siblings could ONLY have played for Scotland). But i wouldnt want him as manager.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it will be pretty but Walter is best in the business at getting best out of a limited squad. 5-4-1.... big physical midfield.. sit deep and hit on the break.

King Of Paisley Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Got to love the media. On Sunday we have the Sunday Mail crying out for progressiveness by way of a Scottish Football Federation. 24 hours later we have Keith Jackson trumpeting an absolute dinosaur for the job. We honestly deserve all we get as being pilloried as a football laughing stock if we are touting the likes of him and McLeish as serious candidates.

Brummie Hibs Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Rangers play Thistle tomorrow, so expect rumours of Alan Archibald to be Scotland manager will be leaked. If Rangers win, then there will be no Scotland manager news on Wednesday. If Thistle win, then Stuart McCall will be rumoured to be next Scotland manager. By the weekend Ian McCall will be the next.
