    If he goes, who next??

    If he goes, who next??

    I ain't a fan of csaba never have been been. But who will come in for the second part of the season before we move on to someone else for 19/20 campaign.

    I like McCall but I think the answer is under our noses already Ellis and Easton with sturrock available to advise if need be.

    Who do you think??

    Ellis temporarily until we get the right man in, don't think he is the answer beyond caretaker


    Tommy Wright is my choice but would also be happy with the other obvious ones

    Robbie Neilson
    David Hopkin
    Stuart McCall
    Sir Peter Houston

    Ellis or McCall for me.

    I want a manager that will get us attacking because I'm fed up of this negative let's not lose the game pish our previous 2 managers have tried.

    This for me . Virtually anyone would see a big improvement I think.

    Thought Hopkin had taken a job in Engurland however looks like he is not working ?

    Laszlo is a disaster we cannot afford to keep him any longer plenty options to replace him

    Just been asked by a Dundee fan if I could forgive Jackie Mac enough to see him back in the dugout and watch attractive football again.

    My reply was forgive him for what, he said selling players to line his pockets. Now I know some fans think he was to blame and what not but, he never write his contract or gave himself a percentage that was ST. These clauses happen all over Europe and let's be honest chairman in Scotland sell players managers don't get a choice.

    Just wondered would anyone else see Jackie back.

    Easton is totally untested in management and by all accounts has been making a name for himself and learning his trade working with the youth teams, he should be allowed to continue with that.

    Ellis did a good job when he came in, but given his background he would struggle presumably from one of the big problems that seems to have afflicted our last few managers i.e. recruitment, I can't imagine he has an extensive or wide range of contacts. Our targets these days seem to be drawn from an extremely narrow pool of championship/relegated players who happen to be available. Any scouting systems put in place are unlikely to bear fruit in the short term. Therefore if Ellis was given the role, I think it would be with a view to backing him for a couple of years, until hopefully the systems in and around him are successfully producing youngsters/signing targets.

    If fans could actually see the club moving forward/progressing and building a squad that might not just get up but even consolidate then I think they would get behind the project, rather than see us repeatedly waste money on fire fighting transfers

    Alternatively you get a tried and tested badass with extensive experience and who has build up his own networks like Tommy Wright to come in with his focus purely on the first team while the club develops its own scouting systems.

    Agreeing with other comments on this charlatan but his biggest crime ( with his drinking buddies ) was removing Steve Campbell from post .

    After the raging success he’s been at York ....we probably couldn’t afford his drinks tab anyway fortunately.
