Insaintee Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 I always thought Hartley was a decent manager (but not a decent person). All managers have ups and downs. Surely he would have got a win against both Kilmarnock and Motherwell and kept you up. Do none of you think you let him go to early, or does the fact that he's a c**t mean that no well rid 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnydun Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 McCann has maybe came to some arrangement to work for both Sky and us, like he was before? Although he has maybe heard that BT now has the rights to more games and his job at Sky is now fucked? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dd23 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 The board have made a right c**t of this. Seconded. However it ends up we're looking like a right bunch of fannies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravabelli Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Be ready for more disappointments, very small pond Scottish fitba and I'm sure they'll all know what's there to work with! Doubt very much also that there's really much of a budget or a massively tempting salary so be prepared for one of the out of work usual suspects currently waiting their turn on the merry-go-round 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have been punted before the transfer window opened in January, or at the end of last season. There are numerous things I didn't like about him, particularly his lack of width in tactics, lack of plan B after McPake got crocked, and his loan signings. Only one of them was any good and he got crocked and had to be sent back to his parent club, the rest all sat on the bench gathering dust as if they were still at their parent club. I'm skeptical about how he dealt with Harkins as well but I'm not sure anyone knows what went on there. and Don't even get me started on his lack of passion in interviews, want to punch him every time I watched an interview.

Dee Man Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Neil McCann probably walked back into the Sky offices, took one look at David Tanner's stupid face and thought "f**k this" and was straight on the phone to Nelms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely he's drifting as folk will have been seeing Jack Ross at 7/1 earlier and backing it, hence him coming back into 5s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The manager market isn't the busiest but it can be lively at times and very fluid based on tips/insider info. It's also cracking for backing and laying if you get any tips. As an example, you could have laid off Jack Ross being Dundee manager on Betfair at any point in the last two days and then backed him tonight on SkyBet when he's drifted so much and you'd have made a killing regardless of the outcome. I got one in work a couple of years ago when Mark McGhee went back to Motherwell (didn't realise at the time the guy's boy was a Motherwell player) and had a look on McBookie to stick maybe a tenner on it, saw he was 16/1 and thought there was no chance so left it alone. 20 mins later he'd dropped to 1/10, and within an hour he was appointed and I was raging about it.
