Need to get behind whoever is appointed 6 and a half weeks til our first competitve game, never mind friendly. We have a skeleton of a squad and no backroom staff - definitely needs sorting ASAP. Also, I presume the "reserve" / U20 team we are building will be ready by next season, if we're planning on entering a league? Or is it solely friendlies they'll play? A power of work to do in the next 30 days or so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbrbairn Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Getting a team of players who try to play football and put the effort in is probably more important than who the coach is 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm giving until the start of September then turning my back on this, if we're treated to the same shite as previous years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A power of work to do in the next 30 days or so. It'll be friendlies according to Holt and Fegus' interview when Fergus was first appointed. CC letting the cat out the bag that Holt has signed a few on pre contracts already means as soon as the managers announced I'd imagine we'll see a few signings announced as well. Assuming Sheerin may get the final say on which ones he wants. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Although I'd prefer Petrie or Yogi, Sheerin is probably better than virtually every other name we've been linked with so far I'll be getting behind him if he is appointed and renew my season ticket 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vision for the future, players on the radar, working relationship with Holt are just 3 of the topics that’ll come to the fore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairney The Dinosaur Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 If it is indeed Sheerin it'll be interesting to see who he brings in as his assistant etc.Would be good if he could bring his assistant from Arbroath days... Maybe even on a part time contract [emoji102] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stainrod Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Niall McGinni and Shay Logan are likely to be released and at 33 they could both do a job in league 1 in that role 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea and Busquets Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Kettlewell did win the championship the season we went down but he did in fairness have a budget big enough to sink the titanic. Didn’t do to well in the Premiership. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AL-FFC Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 You just know we have f**ked this up Sheerin resigns from job at Aberdeen expecting to be unveiled as our new head coach only to find interviews carrying on and someone else gets announced leaving ffc with egg on its face again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea and Busquets Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Heard Yogi might have a job at Celtic lined up. Was being linked to managing their Colts team in the Lowland league 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
