Dougie Freedman

I would much rather Jackett or Howe. Freedman has struggled at Bolton.

Thank you for your valuable contribution to this discussion.

Ok, he's a terrible manager, His teams are pish and he's achieved nothing, Throw in that he has the worst lisp in history and thus any comments he makes are embarrassing to listen too. Not for me thanks. Also, he won't take any kind of salary cut at this time in his year to come to Scotland.

You'd include a speech impediment among your reasons not to give someone a job. You seem like a top bloke.

[mitre_mouldmaster 21,509]

The board request he resigns with some of his dignity intact. If he refuses, the board announces to the press McCoist is refusing to resign, and by doing so, he is only damaging the club by remaining in post.

And how do we pay the constructive dismissal costs on top of paying out his contract?

[alukotheblackmessi 22]

You'd take Walter Smith over Mourinho, Simeone, Jogi Low, Van Gaal, Wenger etc?

Christ almighty.

Right at this minute yes i would

[Kai_Johansen 978]

I think Ian Murry is a great shout, would be pretty easy to get him and he would improve the style of play. Not sure that Ally's for moving though!

[Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133]

Not the worst idea but the next question how to get rid of Ally

Lose the league and he will be gone, until then he's going nowhere.

[jcb 1,167]

Have said Eddie Howe for a couple of years now, need to at least try and attract the more promising young managers before any premiership team show an interest.

Iain Murray is another worth keeping an eye on imo.

[Robespierre 589]

Ian Murray's probably a more realistic target to be fair.

[ciderman 39]

Neil McCann is maybe worth consideration.

[simplythebest 11,453]

Did well at Crystal Palace but been pretty shite at Bolton, would be an improvement on what we have but not the best choice for me

[jcb 1,167]

Neil McCann is maybe worth consideration.

Zero experience is a no-no imo.

Would be worth getting him involved at a younger level first to see how he develops.

[WATP-FOREVER 5,231]

Stuart McCall or Derek McInnes

[alukotheblackmessi 22]

if McCoist did go then it would be somebody out of work, Gary McAllister might be worth a shout

Alex Ferguson couldn't pronounce his R's properly but he did alright,if our new Manager spoke like Elmer Fudd i couldn't care less as long as it wasn't Ally.

[alukotheblackmessi 22]

Stuart McCall or Derek McInnes

McInnes would be my first choice, he is on a fairly long contract at Aberdeen so i don't think we could afford the compensation

[MasterD 7,435]

Naw.

[MasterD 7,435]

There's a whole world out there and there will be plenty of better options than ex players and Rangers men. Open applications and get the best available that ticks the right boxes.

[dalton 1,192]

I think the problem being is we have had many rangers men in the hot seat

(except for le guen ) which of course didnt work out .

But we possibly have to take that chance again

someone that is fresh but is aware what they are taking on.

I would like to see someone like a michael laudrup

or similar type of guy .

[natsdad 8]

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh I am from Bolton and this guy is fucking clueless.

[jcb 1,167]

if McCoist did go then it would be somebody out of work, Gary McAllister might be worth a shout

Why?

Because he's Scottish ?

Because he's a bear ?

Because he sounds reasonably intelligent on BT Sports ?

Because he has a track record in management ?

Just curious.

[Darkhorse78 4]

I don't get his "he's a bear, wages won't be an issue" thing. Ally is a bear and he's by far the highest paid manager in Scotland.

Ally makes out he's a bear .. All he's interested in is himself and money . He knocked us back twice and signed on the third time of asking . Money grabber that's ally .

[DAVIE8CH 296]

for the money ally and his backroom staff are on can we not get the 2 laudrups to do the job

[alukotheblackmessi 22]

I'm not saying he would be my choice but for me he is a better option than a lot of suggestions on here, always talks well on BT, has managed and coached around some big clubs in England, knows the Scottish game and the fact he is a bear is an added bonus..... but lets be honest this is all irrelevant anyway as McCoist is going now where .

[natsdad 8]

when freedman left palace,one of there supporters came on talksport and said I can understand why freedmans left palace for Bolton I cant understand why Bolton would want him,hes done nowt.he was right.
