Is there? He played in the Premier League for a few seasons and then several seasons more for big clubs in the Championship. Considering the finances of English football, he’d have to have been incredibly stupid with his money if he’s in a position where he can’t take a few weeks/months out of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Rae2 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 There’s a lot of rumours and people seem adamant that the striker will be Pops coming back Judging by his instagram he’s still in Slovenia. I can’t see him coming back tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shooter McGavin Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 3 hours ago, Michael W said: Oh yeah, now you tell us. Did alright for Airdrie though.... He did indeed. To an extent. Ultimately he failed to get us promoted even with the best squad of players we have had in many years. Sadly the issues described on this thread seem very familiar. His post match interviews are exactly the same stuff he spouted when we lost or had a shabby draw. Just don't expect miracles. He is very much unproven at any level above L1 and his failure in the playoffs last season when he shat the bed big time tactically will be his legacy with us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree to an extent but to be fair he did an excellent job at Dumbarton at this level. It’s perhaps a different challenge but he almost took them to the promotion play-offs. I don’t think he had many falling outs at Airdrie last season, admittedly with a squad that was fully his for the first time. The squad seemed incredibly close and that was probably a big factor in us scoring so many late goals. He did seem to have his issues with some players when he first came in but given they were a bunch of plodding, overpaid jobbers I can’t blame him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been going too long Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 We are clearly not just a team but a club in transition just now , think we will just tread water this season and next year have a decent go at the playoffs/promotion. We are used to things done Mcglynn’s way and it’s been an adjustment getting used to Murray to say the least , hopefully the bodies are signed but just not announced and Wednesday is players/managers day off so maybe tomorrow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basher brash Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Season tickets sales up from the same point last season , Home top selling out rapid , Fantastic turnout for the open day New manager with new ideas but after the latest announcement regarding Berra leaving I feel we are back to square one , Come on the Rovers board support the new manager or if it’s a lack of resources be honest and upfront , I appreciate recruitment is difficult but Partick have not struggled along with Caley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did seem to have his issues with some players when he first came in but given they were a bunch of plodding, overpaid jobbers I can’t blame him. There probably is a few parallels happening here. Especially after McGlynn's tenure (who was VERY well backed financially, the most I can remember in my time following Raith), there was definitely a couple of inflated wages we needed to shift. I've absolutely no issue with Murray putting his stamp on the team and booting out the dead wood (sorry Bene) left over, and creating a squad that's in line with his philosophies. I did suspect that this season was maybe a step too far for Berra - when he put in the challenge at the end of the Aberdeen game he had a look on his face that said "urgh, f**k this". Despite the awful timing, I suspect the parting is amicable and Christophe has a gig lined up elsewhere, as well as Murray having plans of what to do with his wages. It just better happen quickly or my happy clapper exterior is gonna give way to the existential dread that I'm feeling within 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were both in for someone, say Danny Mullen, then I’d expect we can offer them a higher wage than you can - that’s obviously not the only factor in a players decision, but it helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
