raging blue 1972 894 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I say give him a chance and if he gets us up then ye give him a 2 year deal. We know he can manage cause he done wonders at motherwell not only with no budget but with his best players been sold year on year and having to rebuild with no money, He also made law look a good player at a higher level and seem to recall got the best out of average players like higdon so why not, lets get behind him and see what he can do.Oh I, loved him as a player and his attitude and if he can get that across to that lazy bunch of wasters then we might just do this.I'd imagine he'll also say to them its a clean slate and you are all fighting for a new contract so get your fucking finger out (or words to that effect lol) Band of Brothers 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is there are far, far, far better options out there to do it.If 'they've never done it' is a problem, how do you explain your support for Cathro, who has never managed a professional football club? Besides, what they have 'done', factually speaking, is take Motherwell to second in the SPL. Mr RFC and Bobby Hume 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, what they have 'done', factually speaking, is take Motherwell to second in the SPL.From what he says, and what he has done, he is the perfect fit for the job in my opinion and capable of turning the footballing side around for us. I'm more than happy for us to take the gamble on him.They did do well with Motherwell, I'm not doubting that. I'm happy he is here short term. He is an OK manager. But he still isn't good enough for us long term. Nor is he capable of what we need, like I mentioned above. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cathro would've been a terrific appointment immediately after demotion, given a prolonged opportunity to apply his unorthodox methodology, but in the top division we'll need a certain amount of experience and pragmatism. That said, I really do wish we'd been more ambitious and adventurous earlier on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalton 1,192 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Stuart mc call will give 100% so a great appointment for the club.My only concern is that what he has to work with our up front to score goals our weakest area - forwards.daly ,miller, boyd & clark none of them could be trusted if picked to produce the goods.He has to be brave and bring in gallagher and look to other youngsters to come init might not happen first game but he needs to be brave give the young lads a chancewho havent had the opportunity.

We Will Follow Rangers 12,917 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I reckon he was the only sensible choice, will know our opponents inside out and knows us.whether he is capable of getting a performance out of our collection of wasters remains to be seen.Good luck to him.

nachothelegend 1,932 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Good appointment and I hope to God he can turn performance of this Team around.Extra training and more technique is required and I'm sure he can provide improvements from most of them.

MonTheGers 207 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Welcome back to The Greatest Club in the World Stuart. Absolutely delighted with this. I was hoping it would happen for the remainder of the season for a long time now. Let's see how it goes but I have no doubt he will be chomping at the bit to get these underachievers sorted out. I can see a number of changes come Saturday. Don't understand some of the negativity from some fans but that's just my opinion. He deserves a chance and to be honest let's judge this time next month, not next game. We have won one game in seven and we need to be realistic, not many managers would be capable of making an impact on a side so devoid of urgency, enthusiasm, ideas, creativity, pride, energy, skill, cohesion, I could go on...I would love nothing more than McCall to succeed long term. But short term you have my full support and I wish you all the best in this monster of a task. Gerwelly 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddiqi_drinker 14,635 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Win us promotion and earn yourself a new contract. Fail to win promotion then it was never meant to be, find a new job. Hope he succeeds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
