one55 1,510 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 i think it would be a bit unfair to let him go if he doesn't get us promoted. of course i want us to go up but i think he should get a shot at next season too no matter what league we're in.

Logan_RFC 57 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I personally can't wait for McCall to get started. Looking forward to seeing what he can do. He did a great job at Motherwell with poor resources.Roll on Saturday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smile 26,592 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 i think it would be a bit unfair to let him go if he doesn't get us promoted. of course i want us to go up but i think he should get a shot at next season too no matter what league we're in.Its hard to judge a manager when he's not had a chance to bring in his own players.I still think McCall could get this squad of lazy bastards up but will be hard.

Gooseman 889 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 We need to get behind him, he's got a mountain to climb and the management team before him have knicked all the climbing gear... Joking aside I think he knows what needs to change and I think that he will get the team back to being hard to beat with a touch of creativity going forward as well....
