How come your average man in the stands knows exactly what type of player someone is, yet a football manager who is paid thousands of pounds a week to know that, doesn't? Hearts fans told us exactly what we were getting with Hamilton and that's what we got. County and Partick fans told us what we were getting with Woods and they were spot on. County fans and dabs told us what we were getting with the non-scoring headless chicken that is Craig Curran and it pains me to say they were right. It's almost as if Jim McIntyre didn't know what he was doing and f**k knows what McCann was smoking when he signed Hamilton. The first prerequisite for the managers job should be that they are avid readers of Pie & Bovril. It's the same everywhere. IMO, non-footballers, the every man if you like, are more intelligent, observant and capable of objectivity and abstract thought. Footballers and ex-footballers who become managers. are blinded by loyalty to certain individuals, and cannot and will not drop them/change formation and are generally fairly stupid. I'd read a fan's opinion on a team or individual every day over a pro's. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listening to the likes of Boyd, Rae, Commons etc offer next to nothing of interest, equally there are some very good ex players are are excellent, but they are few and far between. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Literally our only consistently decent player last season and he's offski on a free despite being under contract I'm not even surprised. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Robertson has applied for the job presumably, Nelms has then went to ICT and asked permission to speak to him. He can't be background researching everyone who puts a CV in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but a simple conversation with one or two people that actually supports the club would be a start.

What did he actually say? Where did he say it? I was speaking more generally Harry. Nelms claims he “spoke to loads of people” before appointing McIntyre. Who were these people? Presumably none of them were fans. Who did Nelms speak to that thought McIntyre and Dodds would be given a warm welcome and there would be no issues with Dodds being appointed?

Need a new manager in to make that call but hopefully he stays put, certainly he's been free to sign a pre-contract since Jan so who knows 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Cammy would be better going somewhere he'd get a game rather than Perth. Sitting in the reserves won't do him much good. Nelms said he spoke to loads of people before he appointed McIntyre? That's good. He's openly said these are just preliminary interviews, so there's still loads of time for looking at his history. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One minute with one Dundee fan would have highlighted the Dodds situation. If Nelms did speak to any Dundee minded person did he just choose to ignore them?
