Or he's been told his own replacement is inbound? Probably all bollocks anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very strange when you look at the state of the Falkirk squad at the moment. McKinnon has put together a pretty good set of players at Morton. Opens the door for Hopkins at Cappielow though... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine most of them wish he wasnt sacked now tbh. Not sure why I am even replying to you though Olaf What a load of shite! The football on display under McKinnon was the worst iv'e ever witnessed at Tannadice and his away record was an absolute joke. Really hope this is true... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestfieldBairn Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I’d be happy with McKinnon. Completely out the blue although someone on here did say they seen him at the stadium the other day. Morton fans on Twitter are gutted. He’ll kick a few arses I’m sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the situation we're in and the fact we've been turned down by our first 2 choices, I'm not sure we could do much better. He'll have my full support if we appoint him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really hope this is true...I dont believe it was worse than under Laszlo, but anyway, your club is a laughing stock level shambles so I am happy to gauge McKinnon on how he was able to have his Raith side play just as much as I am willing to heed what he did with your rabble 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbornbairn Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I saw him coming out of TFS as I was going in to get shirts for the kids but I presumed he was in about something else, not the manager's job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Ah'll tell ye this..... Given some of the names being banded about and following rejection from 2 credible targets I was fearing the worst. If we turn it round to having McKinnon in place today, thats a fucking result by any sensible measure. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Suffering Bairn Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 McKinnon = underwhelmed. But underwhelmed is a great improvement on depressed and gutted I guess. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 A little underwhelming but not as much as Jim Duffy would’ve been. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
