He's blue he's white

Really hope we come out the traps fast, high pressing and aggressive in our attitude and play. Can't see anything but a win for us.

Correct mate, he's laying the foundations to leave - one way or another he will be off I reckon.

Having Wilkins around our club in some capacity would be a good thing. Would love this to happen.

DOF.

Quality footballer...If you don't follow football I'd swear youd mistake him as an alkie

Too much.

No way £7500! That's completely bonkers

What sort of salary would this post attract do folk think?

As a player he always inspired me, seeing him cope with some of the best midfielders in Europe and beyond that, bossed the spl for years and tore into the scum on the pitch at every opportunity - a fantastic captain and servant to the club. However, jumped ship to chase the £'s and didn't look back until he wanted back, was greeting and using his influence to return to the club. He then played out his remaining years with the club displaying the ultimate in loyalty. You have to look at what he has done since hanging up the boots... 1. Taking pops against 'his' club in the public forum. 2. Failed down south, so returned to the low leagues of Scotland to 'learn his trade' 3. Failed in the low leagues of scotland and ultimately resigned before sacked as Clyde went from promotion contenders to relegation fighters. 4. Questioned the appointment of Pedro in his paper, for all public to see. 5. "Lifting the cup with birmingham was the biggest and best achievement in footbal." One thing that doesn't seem to have changed along the way is the man's character, he appears to be ego-centric, single minded and selfish. Just can't see how this would work, it would require the most amount of effort from Barry to be a team player and that's what's worrying, as its akways 'his baw' if however; he gets the gig I'll support him and truly hope he proves me wrong.

He does know what it takes to succeed at our club, no doubt about that. I just think he doesn't have all the required skills and attributes.

Ok big Al, we have our own opinions. Mine is based on Ferguson's lack of successful managerial/coaching stints and also I believe that he lacks that wealth of knowledge pedro is looking for regarding our opponents in the spl.

Managed clyde and failed there at a fourth teir team and set up = not qualified. Managed clyde and failed there at a fourth teir team and set up = not experienced enough.

And when it back fires, I'll remind you of this gimp boy.

I'm as much in the know as the other 99% of fans who use this site, and it's certainly more than putting out cones; distributing bibs and getting the lads stretching.

And that's what Pedro wants is it? Fuck I've missed an opportunity here...

Thoughts with all his family and friends.

Ferguson is no where near good enough for this job. Why anyone would want him back at our club is beyond me...He doesn't have the qualities, experience or skills. But he was a good rangers captain...

I agree, he's looking for someone first and foremostfrom scotland and understand the culture, city and expectations. He wants someone who has a wealth of knowledge of Scottish opponents and ideal someone who understands our club. Is their a better candidate than McCann based on the selection and recruitment criteria?

Kinda is.

The Scottish Joey Barton.

Love the scarfs mate

Pedro appears to a strong minded confident professional...Happy to but heads if he's not 100% happy. I just hope he has full autonomy in this instance; if he does McCann would be the perfect candidate.

It's been said already but he's done really well and I'm sure he's a better coach for that experience. He showed more tactical knowhow in the 5/6 games he managed than Warburton done in his final 10mnths or so. He aproached the opportunity like a pro and grabbed it with two hands. I'm stuck in the middle with his role - he is clearly a talented coach and undecided if that's best to utilise that for the first team or continue the 20's which arguablyis/should be supplying the first team with players. Either way we done Mr murty...Your efforts are appreciated.

and Rossiter and poss Dodoo. Side note ... I think garner will thrive under Pedro.
