Bear cub1 292 Posted June 7, 2015 Author Share Posted June 7, 2015 Thread title states that Periera is favourite, as far as I'm aware he hasn't been favourite at any stage.He was favorite when I started this thread and he was still favorite when you posted saying I was talking shite, I said in the first post that Pereira was 6/4 Warburton was 11/4 and mcleish, mcinnes and mccall were all 6/1, do you think I just fckn made all that up ?

onefootwillie 1,518 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Got to say Periera, Wharburton and Cathro show that the board have been thinking out the norm and all appear to have a good footballing philosophy If it's any one of them then it's a decent attempt to move away from the old ex Rangers men / traditional Scottish style Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem was back then that if we lost and Celtic won then it was a disaster. Would be a different story now he would have been afforded a bit more time. He came 10 years too early I think. In my opinion I think he would have done well eventually but the way we were then didn't allow for someone not to hit the ground running.

WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Most people will probably disagree with me but I think PLG would have succeeded if given more time.I used to agree with this, but with hindsight, Paul le Guen made an arse of his six months here.He over-reacted with Ricksen, recruited some awful players, failed to adapt to our opponents' game plans, disposed of Bardsley (One of our only shining lights during that period) for tackling in training, banned tackling in training(!), was delusional in post-match interviews and Ferguson aside, how on earth did Gavin Rae end up with the captain's armband? He hadn't featured remotely regularly.Anyone interested in le Guen's transfer activity during the summer of 2006 should read 'Paul le Guen: Enigma' by Mark Guidi. Truly astonishing.

He hasnt though. He has been fecking brutal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly astonishing.To be honest mate I think it's not to dissimilar to what's going on across the city at the tattie dome just now. Foreigner comes in, makes some stupid decisions, rattling a few cages and not getting to grips with the culture. Deila has kind of adapted his methods to suit everybody now because he got a little bit more time to learn. PLG wasn't given the chance to learn, he was out the door at basically the first sign of trouble. Deila has obviously had the comfort of not having us in the division to mount a serious challenge which was a luxury PLG never had Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without Celtic, I have no doubt le Guen would have been a success of sorts.Deila has it easy. Yet, the guy genuinely believes he's achieving something at Parkhead. That fist thing he does at full-time infuriates me, as he's the messiah who has brought glory days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

harlands plater 16,989 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I remember watching some games under PLG and being bored rigid. It's not as if he had us playing the way Advocaat did, even allowing for the obvious gulf in spending power. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallus 11 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Don't like the sound of Jonny foreigner coming into our situation-they won't get it and hit the ground running. It will be all "projects" and "philosophies". Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a supporter of Cathro , still am , but as we find out more about Warburton and Periera , I'd be quite confident of any of those three , should they get it.
