I can’t pretend to know any more about Jimmy Thelin than I’ve read these last few weeks. But from a position of relative ignorance, on the face of it, it feels like the kind of appointment we should be making. Not the usual merry go round of uninspiring SPFL managers; has a track record of improving teams; ditto developing players; is ambitious; not afraid to take on the ‘big’ teams on his turf, etc.

Also pleased to see he’s keeping Leven on - having someone who understands Scottish football makes sense, and Leven’s proved sensible so far.

All in all, I’m relatively happy. Let’s see what his first interview is like and then his summer recruitment/release of those he doesn’t want.

Fingers crossed he’s in the job for more than 12 months
