#Gary Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 It's rarely a surprise when a manager gets sacked in football but this is not something I expected to read today... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It absolutely screams Mark Kerr to me. I spoke to him on one occasion during his spell at Ayr and he was a really nice guy and despite not being a starter for us it sounded like he enjoyed being at the club but nice guys rarely make great managers. I don’t expect him to be the next permanent Thistle manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Jag Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Some amount of pant-wetting on social media but it’s the correct decision even if the timing is unexpected. Two league seasons virtually written-off by clear underachievement. I’m gutted it didn’t work out for him and he’s at least restored some credibility to our club, but he’s clearly taken us as far as he can. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midlife Crisis Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Regardless of the timing, it’s the right decision. The last couple of league games have been dreadful. Looking forward to having a management team who just don’t ship in Old Firm youngsters on loan every window and give contracts to duffers like Smith and Mullen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems incredibly bizarre since that’s arguably one of your best performances of the season when you consider the opposition. Makes next Saturday very interesting. Surely he would have been sacked alone and not the 2 assistants if that was the case though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely scenario is they decided to punt him after last week but decided to stay for the cup game as planning had already started on it and board scared of a pumping today. Was convinced he'd be away at the end of the season so fair enough its done now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossBFaeDundee Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 (edited) Baffled at that one, especially after a very creditable performance today in the cup. I suppose though that when you take into account the previous results against Accies and Cove, the board might've made their minds up during the week and thinking a tanking by Rangers would be a good enough final nail in the coffin, only for that to not happen, but they just pulled the trigger anyway. As @K.T noted in our thread, very McPake-esque when he was sacked after a win at Tynecastle and in the cup. At the end of the day it was the right decision, but in the short-term it was an awful, awful decision. Mark McGhee in for the Partick job, please.
