IMO this is a fucking terrible appointment and i genuinely cannot see him lasting more than a season before he is hunted. I agree but without the sweary words. (i'm a lady) I would like to know who put his name forward? Why are we looking abroad when there's English managers with better cv's, that we could sign for the same amount of money being offered to Pedro? I'm beginning to wonder if we're being snubbed by managers because of the statement the English football managers association gave on behalf of Warbs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KWBear 1,640 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 None of what has been promised has been delivered. A proven winner. High calibre. We are getting Pedro Caixinha. Report in the Evening Times has quotes from a Qatar sports correspondent who works for BeIN sports, who mentions that his current club attracts an average home gate of 400. “He will have had to change his philosophy of when the players eat and come in and how they train. He will have had to leave them plenty of time to pray. If he’s in charge over Ramadan you need to take that into account as it can clash with games. Some players will fast and some will be unable to play. “It’s just whether or not the style of Scottish football suits him. It’s much more physical than what he is used to based on his last few jobs, particularly Garafah." Sounds like a perfect fit. Wait, there's more! "One of the problems of managing out here is you are restricted due to local quotas. It’s not like you are able to go out into the transfer market and bring in more than a few players. We haven’t really seen what you would say is his influence or firepower in the transfer market due to local quotas. It’ll be interesting when he gets to a club like Rangers and he can bring in who he likes to see who he exactly wants to sign. “He’s in full control, theoretically, of the infrastructure. He is the manager. But one of the problems is that even though there is no director of football, you are very much bound by the locals in Doha whether they are Sheikhs or Royalty or influential figures behind the club. Al Thani will effectively, as the President, have final say on everything. If he likes the manager, it could be the case Pedro will say ‘I want X amount and be left to it’ but there are scenarios where the owner, and President Al Thani in particular, will tell him who to play". Fantastic stuff. I'm just absolutely baffled that we apparently had over 60 applicants, yet we end up with a no mark who is managing (badly) in Qatar. This fucking stinks.

saltire266 502 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 What decent Professional Manager/ DOF is going to look at us when we are being run at the top by unprofessional people and a chairman who is a convicted criminal. After the Warburton fiasco any slim chance we had has gone. I am sure all the English managers are well aware of Warburton's side of the story about King etc. and wouldn't touch us with a barge pole currently.
