  1. The team finishing 11th has had 36 points more than once. We need at least 40 to be safe I reckon.
  2. If the club had only sent out a statement they'd have been accused of hiding by some. Fronting up to be interviewed, albeit to the club's own channel, was decent. I don't have any issues with Burrows. Dave offered him a good opportunity and he took it. He sees football the way a fan sees it because that's what he is, a football fan. He isn't from a business background and he's never played the game. He doesn't come across as a man with an agenda, a massive ego, or any axe to grind in the way that some ex-players/coaches or owners/business people do. But hey, I've only ever really seen him in TV interviews, I've never met or spoken to him in person. Maybe folk who have might have a different opinion.
  3. It looks like it's been filmed somewhere else and the background is superimposed.
  4. With all these goings on the only appropriate candidate is Tommy Brown.
  5. I think that's possibly one of the biggest problems in the running of the club. Cormack is a fan with a software business Milne is a fan with a (failed) construction business Burrows is a Motherwell fan who got a job in football Gunn is a fan who started out making the tea & coffee Garner was Fergie's assistant 40 years ago and had the ignominy of scoring two own goals on his Celtic debut Only one of them has ever played the game and that was decades ago in a different era. There's not enough football knowledge to make informed decisions or gain the respect of football people. At a minimum, Cormack needs to take a step back and we need a DoF who is capable and actually respected in the game. Gunn can go back to making tea, preferably at another club.
  6. I think the important word there is legacy. Dave's ego isn't content with owning the club, he wants to be spoken about in the same breath as the likes of Dick Donald, Fergie, and Willie Miller. He wants to be a club legend.
  7. That's what I reckon - we've tried to attract someone from outside of the Scottish game with a bit of rep/experience and they've all knocked us back so now we're having to look at the usual SPFL managerial merry-go-round and sifting through the pile of crank applications that were destined for the shredder.
  8. I reckon it's Gunn. He's allowed 10 minutes on the internet after he's made Dave's tea.
  9. Are the candidates being interviewed familiar names from the merry-go-round and are they currently not in a management position?
  10. If that's the case then I would suppose we've approached and been rejected by all the people we actually wanted and now we're reduced to considering all the no-hopers and retards like Yogi and Lennon who applied for the job.
  11. Northern Ireland are playing 5-3-2 tonight. Just sayin'
  12. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0hlxghd BBC's Scottish Football Podcast from today. Skip to 16:00 to avoid the chatter about the game tonight and they spend 5 minutes on our manager hunt and the possibility of it being Michael O'Neil. One of the guests is an NI journo so it's interesting to hear his perspective on it.
