    I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're attempting to be funny.

    In all seriousness though, do you have a couple names from that list you'd take and why?

      Must be loads of managers out there crying out for a 6 month steady the ship contract.

        I would happily take Alex Neil,McInnes or Lennon from that list because they would have us winning games on a regular basis.

        I would say if I had to choose out of the three then Alex Neil would be the best choice.

          I'd be OK with Alex Neill TBH. A few fails on his CV but he's done well at some decent sized clubs.
          Actually got a tune out of the basket-case "sleeping giant" that is Sunderland.

            Colin W@nker would be a good shout, especially since we don’t keep managers more than a year anyway these days.

              Speaking in November, Neil Warnock discusses his ambition to manage in Scotland and reveals that Aberdeen once rejected him!

                    I'd like to see Alex Neil come in too - think he'd do fine but I seriously doubt he'd come - plenty of Championship teams willing to take punts on managers like him and you only have to wait a month or two in that league for a job to come up. Steve Clarke was in a very similar position before he came up to Killie

                    Lennon - nope - he did fine when he had the biggest budget and infrastructure in the league but struggled at all his other jobs and seems on a downwards trajectory

                    Either we go for a young manager who knows the league and plays good football with his current team so we know what we'll look like (this is where I was surprised with Goodwin's appointment - St Mirren weren't exactly playing beautiful football, or even very good football) or you get an experienced head from abroad who has a history of doing well in a similar league i.e. northern europe and no fear of the filth

                    The recruitment department seems to do more work now rather than depending on Russ Richardsons little black book so I would like to think a non-Scottish manager coming in will be simply telling them what type of player he needs rather than who - on that note we're also looking for a head of recruitment/ scouting aren't we? Two important appointments to get right

                      Going against the grain here but I’d like us to appoint a foreign manager who has decent track record and knowledge of different markets to the English diddy leagues we always dip into.
                      Worked well for the victims and no reason we shouldn’t try the same.
                      I have no clue with regards to names but must be some good coaches abroad who could improve our players and unearth some gems.

                        I am used to getting dogs abuse on here.
                        was very vocal on my dislike for donkey cosgrove and took an amount of sh1t for that.
                        Have also been vocal from the day we binned McInnes that we should have been talking to Neil Lennon (took sh1t for that as well) but I stand by it.
                        If we had taken Lennon in instead of Glass then we would not be in the sh1t show predicament that we currently find ourselves in, but now I do not think Lennon would take the job, I would have McInnes back but for sure 100% he wont come back
                        So third choice Alex Neil, would he want to risk his already stuttering reputation coming to us I doubt it.
                        Seriously I have no fkn idea who would come, we need someone in for the long run not just a few months for ship steadying, that is not the answer.
                        But who is the million dollar question

                          Just for a laugh, if you HAD to choose one out of Tony Doc and Derek McInnes to be next permanent manager who would folk prefer?

                          Aye I Ken, most will say none blah blah but just wondering, both doing well enough on their own after being a duo for a long time.

                            Tony Doc for me.

                            I thought Dundee looked decent on Wednesday, albeit we were honking.

                            DM would steady us, but the old issues would rear their head again.

                                Yeah Same, Doc for me.

                                People calling for Deek back? He'd definitely stabilise us and with time get us back into fairly consistent 3rd places and the odd cup final but then we're just back to where we started. We wanted change and however painful it is we have to keep trying to get a team and manager who can deliver more than that. Impressive though what he's done with Killie - a team littered with Don's cast-offs, shows how far decent coaching can take you

                                I'm pleased for Doc with the Dee, made some interesting signings too. Could definitely see him get established as a decent league manager
