Prso's headband 35,428 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 The board have taken to much time with this now, from FDB and Pardew to a guy slumming it out in the Qatari league. We are going to get slaughtered next week and it could be yet more unwanted records broken by this shambles of a team. I don't know why but I'd hope a new manager would have got a reaction from them in time for next week but I doubt it'll happen now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll know a lot more than me, and you being worried is worrying me Honestly mate theres not one thing about him that makes me think he might be OK. 1 year at U.D Leria before being sacked. 1 year at Nacional before being sacked 3 years at Santos Laguna where he done OK I guess. (1 league 2 cups in 7 half seasons). Now in Qatar at a 5th placed side. The only thing giving me any hope is that he seems to be Wilsons choice and I trust he has done extensive research/knows him from Southampton looking at him.

The Specky Forum Organiser 64,530 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Rangers are hopeful of announcing Pedro Caixinha as their new boss next week ahead of the clash with Celtic away on 12 March. The Portuguese coach is the front-runner to succeed Mark Warburton but could cost £300,000 in compensation. He is currently in charge of Al-Gharafa in Qatar. (The Sun) Speechless if this is the case.

Shuggy 1,308 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Two important games coming up and still no manager. How do you balance getting a quick fix in and taking your time to get it right? I would rather get McLeish in keep looking for the long term solution (like we did with McCall) .. assuming McLeish is not holding out for a permament post.

So now he's good enough to be main man? I just don't feel like taking risks after MW. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 53,775 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I always expected us to appoint a British manager but if we were going down the path of a foreign manager there are a lot of guys who have worked extensively in Germany that are out of work who I was hoping we would go for. Guys like Thomas Schaff, Huub Stevens, Armin Veh. Yes, they have some blips on their CV's (most managers do) but they have a lot of experience managing in a really good legaue and most of them have taken teams into European competition on multiple occasions too.

TMB 14,167 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I hope Park joins in some capacity. He has the ability to identify players and we badly need someone who can do that for us. Especially is the foreign markets. Gaffbear and 6superbarry6 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These chancing fucks are practically handing the tarriers 10. "ILL INVEST 30 MILLION". Invested £3million 2 years into his 3 year plan. A crook and an embarrassment.

The Specky Forum Organiser 64,530 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 If this is Wilson's choice this says to me he doesn't get it either. It's all well and good taking risks like this at Southampton where your aim is mid table and having a long term plan. Doesn't work like that here I'm afraid.
