Mate I don't keep a notebook of every game of football I've watched like I'm sure your statto pal @Rangers_no1does.

But I've seen enough of them over the years under Dyche to know he didn't play expansive attacking attractive football at any point.

Not that we'd get him but Kompany would be a better shout.

 

Obsessed.

So when you said they played absolutely horrendous football in the championship when they had the best players in the league you had no idea and were lying to try and back up your point. Sound.

Last part is looooooool.

You are such an awkward little dweeb.

People watch football over a number of years and are left with an impression with how a team play, I've seen Burnley in the championship, probably mainly through the highlights shows.

Yeh. We also have a midfield of Scott Arfield and Steven Davis.

Quote

Bielsa wants to control every aspect of a football club including spending a fortune on stuff tailored exclusively to his need.

In return, you're expected to treat him like a demi God, never question his methods which included running his players into the ground and walk around him on eggshells in the hope he simply just doesn't up sticks and fúck off elsewhere if the mood suits him that day

4-6-0 formation for league games at Ibrox 

Probably.  But no more ineffective than we are now.

A manager having complete control of the club sounds exactly what we need. 

Bielsa was supposedly on about £8m a year at Leeds so wouldn’t spend too much time thinking about him. 

There isn’t a huge amount of obvious candidates out there 

[SeparateEntityMyArse 55,498]

Knutsen with Duncan Ferguson his no2?

Or Gattuso and a Kev Thomson type assistant?

Hunners of options.  Just get the imposter out the door ASAP.

If we don't make the change I agree, I was replying to his point about the league being done already. Make the change now and we still have a chance.

Gattuso with Muscat as assistant imo

I want Gattuso last season but zero chance of him now he is at Valencia.

In Scotland you don’t need a DOF. I don’t care what new age fancy stats pish points to it being good you simply don’t need it. 
 

Them over the city didn’t even have a DOF when their manager came in and he made at least 4 extremely successful signings himself which ultimately won them the league because he had control of the club. 
 

We’re hamstrung by a cunt with no football knowledge who bases his player signings on statistics. He needs to go as well, or whoever comes in will be equally as fucked, although the football might no be pish

Rebrov seems a good choice to me, though he’s probably on a decent chunk at the club he’s at in the UAE right now.

Seoane was my other ideal candidate, he’s without a club at the moment but like Bielsa, he was probably earning quite a lot while at Leverkusen.

I don't think big Dunc would want anything to do with working in an SFA league. Could be wrong, mind you.

Thomson and McCann should be assistants at the club no matter who comes in.

If you force assistants onto any incoming manager you're seriously limiting your options

[eskbankloyal 19,446]

Knutsen gets a lot of attention but up until the last couple of years at Bodo his career has been mediocre at best. 

 

[esquire8 45,399]

Thomson would be my choice as caretaker until the board was sorted out. 

We as a support should not be giving Wilson any ideas like last time.

We're a mediocre club so a perfect fit.

I've honestly barely given thought to a replacement. Haven't even been on this thread til 20 mins ago.

There's hundreds of options, fuck knows who'd be a good fit.  Fuck, I wanted Gio so I should probably just remove myself from the thread with no further comment 😂

Big Dunc listened to what scumdee had to say not too long ago before turning it down as I understand it, he'd take the job if offered imo, probably have some sort historic ban in place from the SFA knowing they wankers though.

I hope you are right. We need some Scottish, no-nonsense, passionate blood back in the team.
