Hard graft and phsyciality is first and foremost in this league though. That’s the thing.He wouldn’t change and paid with his job.

Our best managers have always been Scots. McInnes is probably the only one that springs to mind unless Davie Moyes was interested but I would imagine finances would rule him out Either us or the papes haven't had a scottish manager since mccoist chucked it for us (im not counting mccall) Fuck me they hired an aussie who'd never been to the west of the world by the looks of it and he absolutely bitch slapped scottish football over two years We can continue to blame managers all we like, but lets face it, when your squad is littered with high wage, low value, absolute shite, any manager will struggle J-Maestro and RogerMellie 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I'm wrong too, because 1. it would mean Clement has had a disaster and 2. It'd be a clear sign that we don't have the money to match the ambition of the fanbase. But I think that is where we are at the minute and if the worst case scenario does happen, I think they'll look to him to work with a relative shoe-string budget much the same as we asked Big Eck to after Advocaat.

Somemightsay7 3,090 Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 6 minutes ago, Ivybank said: Moyes and his family were massive bluenoses before he joined the scum No he wasn't. He's talked about how he was a boyhood celtic fan and how his father is too. This is directly from an Interview on the West Ham website. While he may have been away from home, the 58-year-old’s love affair with his boyhood club has endured, while his father David Sr., who was his coach at Drumchapel and is also a lifelong supporter, still lives in Glasgow and will be at celtic Park to watch his team take on the Irons on Saturday afternoon. https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2021/july/23-july/david-moyes-his-return-glasgow-and-taking-his-father-saturdays-pre Even if he did happen to support them as a child, we would be hiring him now, not 50 years ago, when he is vocally a celtic fan.

It's not like there's anyone obvious sitting in the wings ready to take over and improve things. No prospective buyers either. We badly need a figure head at the club right now, someone who can galvanise everyone. I'm not saying him per se, but a Souness type would be great to have as a Chief Exec or some other position. Totally agree with this, but i don't think there is anyone who could actually do that now. Things are looking grim. Things can change fast in football tho, so we can only keep going, and No Surrender LegendofCoop 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His brother sits in Ibrox every week, he isn’t rabid and frankly, if he was good enough for Walter he’s good enough for me. My issue is with hiring the likes of the bitter cunts who call us huns and are often seen in their ground (e.g. O’Halloran).

Let's be honest - we lucked out with Gerrard as he had the pulling power to attract ambitious young players - and sellick dipped massively by appointing Lennon. A similar scenario won't be happening any time soon. There is absolutely zero evidence that the current Board have the wherewithal to bridge the gap - and there is no prospect of any knights in shining armour waiting in the wings. Another defeat or 2 will pile pressure on the Board - and we know the likely outcome there. All things considered, it's feeling very close to rock bottom.
