Im_Rodger Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Oran Kearney would be my 1st choice.Coleraine flying.Gamble but he looks like he can stop St Mirren from sinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenburn bud Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Oran Kearney would be my choice, or Jim Goodwin. I expect the board Will most likely go for experience and appoint McIntyre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impressed the board at his last interview apparently. As did Alan Stubbs.... I think they need to amend their points criteria this time round.

But "He’s been places and done things". Imagine the chairman of the managers and coaches association backing managers and coaches without any other consideration....

Take it Goodwin has ruled him self out. I would be worried Kearney has no experience of Scottish football. Big gamble at this time we need steady hands at this time.

All of these managers from the usual merry-go-round, with their knowledge of Scottish Football, have all failed in jobs before. Some more than once. Give it to the best person for the job.

Spot on,Scottish football constantly fails because of desperation for experience and a so called safe pair of hands.Jack Ross was seen as a huge gamble and he got rid of experience and replaced it with talent which he then filled with confidence.Worked out pretty well for St Mirren.Hartley took Alloa up two divisions in his first managerial gig.Colin Cameron took Cowdenbeath back to the championship after Jimmy Nicholl had relegated them with a team full of old experienced players.After Stubbs winning the Scottish with Hibs he would have been seen as a safe pair of hands for a club who would be looking at staying up in their first season back.Careful what you wish for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkmenbashi Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Yeah, I don't understand all this clamouring for experience. I think it's overrated at this level given anyone who is actually known to be decent is not available to us. I see many of the usual options being just as risky as giving some left field or young manager the job. There is a reason why they are available right now. I reckon Kearney would be just as likely to be a success or failure as going for someone like McIntyre. Each comes with a different set of risks.
