It's been a while since I've even seen a Pars fan use it. Everyone nibbling away like mad these past couple of days. Although if my team was deciding between Dick Campbell and Gary Bollan as our next manager, I'd be on the edge too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I'm feeling a bit like a broken record here, but I wouldn't want Bollan. Hate to be that person, but my sources who's worked alongside in him in the past said he's completely arrogant in a similar way to Hughes came across. Spoke down to his players whenever he could. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhereman Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Good luck if you can find a professional footballer working a 40 hour week. They probably mostly work a third of that at most. Twelve/ thirteen hours, seriously? Given they ll work about four hours on a match day that means they are only working eight or nine hours for the other six days. It's hardly surprising we have slipped so far behind other European nations if those sort of hours are standard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzle Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Pars fans are terrible for realising they've been bested then throwing out a "what a state to get your self in" to look like some genius troll. Every time its reeking as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely not what we are after. That was the reason given by the board but was total bollocks, he brought through McNulty and Scougall who both went on to move to Sheffield United for a fee. Took us from the 3rd Division to the mid table 1st Division and you'll struggle to find a Livi fan who wasn't surprised at him going. His name briefly comes up whenever we sack a manager though.

It's hardly surprising we have slipped so far behind other European nations if those sort of hours are standard That would almost make sense. These guys are only training 2 hours per day tops and will likely have about 2 days off per week as well. The fact that we're debating minimum wages and how many hours a FT player will actually work, shows just how long a summer it's going to be. I have heard stories about when Lambert went to Dortmund that he couldn't believe they did 2 sessions in a day on some training days. The more young talented players we can send abroad to learn the better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specky Ginger Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I would prefer neither. Wasn't Bollan sacked at Livi for not giving youth players a chance? Surely not what we are after. That was the Livingston board's excuse, at the time, for sacking him. I might be wrong, but I think he was replaced by Brian Welsh (clown who tried to pick a fight with Marv at Starks Park when he was Cowden manager), who happened to be the son in law of a Livi director (Gordon McDougall, ex Cowden owner). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically, there's been quite a few of the former Hibs players who've came out and said that while it got them performing better, they hated the double sessions he introduced at Hibs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
