    Ok i had no idea that happened. But he did take on a strong winning team as well. i think the point you make that it needs to be a team effort is true - strong leadership required regardless

    If you look at Hearts and Hibs you can see that it's precisely about management. Sound boards making good decisions and appointing the right managers (exc the Cathro experiment obv) You could add Celtic and Sevco (Gerrard) into that although it muddied the waters slightly.

    It's no coincidence that our best years were delivered by excellent Board of Directors making the right managerial appointments. So yes, it IS about management. Other things have to click too though.
