    Steve Clarke would certainly not be a backward step and is doing a remarkable job at Kilmarnock with a very little budget. Neil Lennon wouldn’t lie down to Celtic when up against them so I would certainly take him as stated previously. I don’t particularly like him but believe he is no coward against Celtic and Sevco so that itself would be a plus. There is plenty managers out there....we need someone who fears no one. Don’t expect Milne to pick someone different very soon as he is happy we just played Celtic never mind the thought of actually having a real go at them.

    Already covered Lennon above.
    Steve Clarke is a decent shout, but is it realistic?
    He certainly has Kilmarnock punching above their weight, but he has an affinity at Kilmarnock, he would not have at Aberdeen.could he be enticed up north from Killie? I’m not convinced.
    Who else is there from the “plenty of managers out there” category.

    On the back of 4 straight wins we faced the league champions and were beaten 4-3, there is absolutely no way we would have conceded all those goals if we had Devlin,Lowe or indeed Reynolds fit......never mind, a few on here......well the same “experts” rise above the parapets.....have not checked the timing of some posts, hopefully unlike previous match threads they kept their angst at least till full time!!

    Ach weel, Livi away on Saturday.....hopefully bounce back and then get the golf clubs out in Dubai.

    I’m not over there, not my cup of tea, however I have many chums out there and Mrs Jarvis is a regular visitor to soak up the rays etc. anyway, unfortunately I’ll just hone my golf skills in the sun elsewhere later as I’ve got to go with my father to Gartnavel Hospital tomorrow and don’t want to be too far away at the moment.......I’ll make the short trip to Livi on Saturday.......no suntan lotion required there.

    Mike Loggie will have the golf day again and I’m sure there will be a low-key knockabout with another side.

    Livi is not my favourite ground but I’m sure the boys will be up for it.

    I hear thon boy Jose Mourinho is looking for a job and we might pick him up on the cheap as he has just been punted along with a few million smackeroos in his hipper, so he might not be bothered about the cash side of things

    OK OK OK, i'll get ma coat.
    But i can see the best selling fridge magnet ever of Mourinho with dandies scarf above the heed shot

    Nae idea really, Lennon or Clarke are both good shouts.

    But there is no disputing the fact McInnes cannot take us any further

    Maybe, but I refer you to the Don’s point.

    The question isn't simply, has McInnes taken us as far as he can... the question is two-fold - has McInnes taken us as high as he can and is there a realistic replacement who could take us further? The answer to the first part may be "yes", but if the answer to the second part is "no" we should stick with him.

    So we sacrifice consistency and finishing second to a team with a budget about 30 times ours so you can have a go at Celtic.

    You really are an utter bawbag.
