New manager

[pieandbovrilman]

His overall stats at PNE
Played 191, won 73, drew 46, lost 72 win to game ratio of just over 37% nae good enough in my opinion.
There are far better options out there than him

I agree those stats are nae great but what I will say is that league is a lot more competitive than ours , also he’s guided a team into the premiership via the play offs in Scotland and England which would suggest he might be decent in cup competitions up here ?
He’s only 39 too so he’s still a young manager who has already had a vast amount of experience in my opinion having managed in the English premier league.
I’d certainly be having a look at him if I was Davie C.

Also PNE haven't got the financial clout of others in the division.

If it’s a straight choice between Neil and Glass I’d go with Neil

Is that Neil Lennon you are referring to pal

I’m a bit worried by the delay, I would have expected some sort of unveiling today.

It’s going to be Glass but I’m really worried that the delay means we are trying to get Scott Brown as assistant.
I sincerely hope we aren’t in a McGhee type wait for that a’rsehole to make up his mind.

Leave the c’unt at Parkhead.

Aye DD I tend to be of the same opinion as you, I am currently on the anybody but glass boat, and I might consider jumping aff that fcukin boat if it Glass and the lego muncher broon, thats just fkn wrang

With the international break and the commitment to getting our man before the season's end, you'd imagine this week will be unveiling time.

[donsdaft]

Ah bloody hell.
Nae yet another international break.
What the f'uck for this time?

There's nothing left to play for this season really - even if a new manager comes in now, we're not getting anywhere near winning the Scottish cup with that bunch of players. We'll be in a fight to hold on to 4th place but I can't see Livi getting enough points to overtake us. The new manager won't need many games to work out how terrible most of the squad is, so the only real advantage of getting someone in sooner rather than later is that they can start making a list of signing targets. You'd imagine the guys who are applying for the job will have a fair idea of that already anyway.

The disadvantage of bringing someone in right now is they have to work with these awful players, most of whom won't be here next season, and probably start their managerial tenure with a few defeats. A new manager would probably rather just hang on til the last couple of games in the season before taking over I would've thought. That might be on Cormack's mind too. If the new guy comes in and loses his first 6 games in charge because the players are hopeless it doesnt inspire confidence in the fans for the new season.
