BlueSuedeSambas 54,578 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I actually think McLeish will come back a far better manager than the one who left. I know it's a lazy and easy comparison to make but Walter only had two jobs, plus the stint with Man Utd, after he left us but I think those experiences meant that he came back as an even better manager than the one who left. Since leaving us Eck has managed internationally, in England and abroad and altbough he's had mixed success I would like to think that those experiences will mean he also comes back a better, and more shrewd, manager than the one who left too.

I just think our next move could win us or lose us the title next year and another 'interim' solution is chucking in the towel. Maybe I'm wrong, Rodgers has done it over there in a short space of time. I really hate to say this mate but unless we get a major investment very soon I think nxt year will be just to soon for us to be challenging the tims. We need a new team and a better manager. Because of Warburton were no further forward we need to start again by the looks of it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I think I read someone else saying 'We'll appoint McLeish interim, then speculate about who it will be come next season, season tickets will be sold with dreams of De Boer and McLeish will sign a 2 year deal' And that's exactly what will happen! Some of McLeish's signings were abysmal. I'm not sure imagination is what we need right now. Le Guen was imaginative, Walter was not. Warburton was imaginative, McLeish is not...

An international manager that has experience in Europe and the English game with a lot to prove is worth a shot. Rangers fan to boot. I hope Mcleish is giving it long term if im being honest.

Blue_Devil 350 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 McLeish has always been a good coach. He goes in and lifts players and performance (Hibs, Rangers, Scotland etc..). In the longer term, his signings have not always worked out and his teams go backwards after an initial spike. Perhaps he would do well under a DoF that was a recruitment specialist. That said, Ndidi went to Leicester for £15 million. I am fairly sure McLeish gave him his big break, but not sure who found him in Africa.

Just need a bit of stability I'm fed up of all these gambles were taking going wrong. It's worth taking a gamble when ure clubs in a strong position but sadly were not this now. We can't afford to keep losing what little money we have on bad gambles. We will get bck to being in a strong position eventually as were to big a club not to! Removing fat ash will be the next step in getting there! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel exactly the same..If however Eck decides that he doesn't want the job just where will that leave us..And surely it will tell us just how much of a basket case we are. That is my main Fear..

Free, Rangers man, gave us success last time round. If we want to look to take a different approach (DoF) in the summer then fair enough but right now, McLeish is probably the best of what's available. Can't disagree not a big McLeish fan first time round because of how he fucked it in the end but I'm same as you in that he's perfect for rest of season to tighten this shower of shite up and on the assumption we have a top candidate in mind come June or July Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NixonRFC 1,474 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 it has to be McLeish for me, he's a leader, a genuine leader, something we lack in all aspects of the club, he'll lift everyone in the place IMO. I'm a bit of a dinosaur in that I believe we need Rangers men at the helm, not any old Rangers man but if there is one available that is on equal footing with another target I'll always go for the Rangers man, we need someone who knows Rangers and Scottish football inside out, we need someone whos won it all as a player and manager too, someone the players and fans will instantly respect. I'm not sure if big Eck is the man long term but for the here and now, to give us out best chance of instant improvement and give us a good chance of winning the Scottish and for me a guarantee of finishing 2nd then he's the man for right now and maybe next Season too. McLeish might not be the man who can win us the Title but he could be the man than can close the gap considerably which will make the next mans job a lot easier.

dummiesoot 16,121 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Here's where I am at, big Eck, steady hand at the tiller until the summer. Billy Davies? Nah sounds like the type of sex partner Brendan likes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbarrosa 124 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 If we appoint an interim manager I think it might indicate that DK doesn't plan to be around long term. Just get through the season and let somebody else sort it. I feel the same way about the so called "resignations" obviously I don't have all the details but I think all 3 could have a good case for compensation. If so, whilst the current regime are saving a few bob in wages, at some point it could come back to bite us. I'm not sure I'd trust King with the next lot of season ticket money.
