The next manager 100% will be someone who is wanting to play 'the thistle way' of past, the same philosophy that got the club into the top 6. The board weren't happy with Archie's style of play for the last 12 months. Gerry coming from his youth academy background wouldn't let someone come in who would dingy the academy. There is no chance Robbie Neilson will take it though
Good luck to Gerry and Scott though. Scott Allison is a terrific coach and motivator, which this group of players need.
