He’s never won fvck all and I find it hard to believe that many people watch a lot of Swedish football so it seems to me they wanting this guy because they don’t want the usual Scottish merry go round manager.

Maybe he is worth a punt but he’s going to need serious financial backing if it’s going to work.
Somebody posted on the hat about him a couple of weeks backand stated he is a good manager.

The guy was from the UK, but lived in Sweden and follows the game over their.

No idea on Thelin myself, but he does have a decent record in Sweden.

The amount of clubs in Scotland, outwith the cheeks, who have been successful with foreign managers is fairly slim, but then again most of us haven't had much success with Scottish or home nations managers either.
