Malky still favourite and jt 2nd mcclaren and wright. I really cant see mcclaren coming to tannadice tbh but lets see. At least we are doing right things and talking to a few.
Odds still very short on Wright (don’t think that is happening), Mackay at odds on and McClaren (my preferred choice out of the 3).
Can see how bookies make money
This thing is chopping and changing by the minute but thinking longer term, on reflection I still see Tommy Wright as the best candidate as was the case as soon as Nielson went.
I feel that if things go south at the start under MacKay, he’ll be under huge pressure as the press AND some of the fans start to dredge up his ‘baggage’ while under McClaren, you just know that the Scottish (well West Coast) press will be itching to report on an ex England manager failing in Scotland, so stand by for the Wally with the Brolly getting dragged up at the soonest opportunity. Next season is going to be tough, no question, so avoiding a bit of a managerial ‘media circus’ may be no bad thing.
For those reason Wright, who is well known and respected in the Scottish game, is likely to be given much more latitude and time to get things up and running even with a few bumps in the road you would feel, while the Club gets used to being back up where it should never have left. So still TW for me.
Wright for me too, mclaren’s recent managerial record is poor.
McClarens win percentage in the last 7 years in the Eredivisie, English Premiership & English Championship is 40%. Exactly what Tommy Wright's is in the mighty Scottish Premiership and he's hailed as some kind of messiah. Would love to see how Tommy fared in the same situations McClaren has been in. Neilson failed, McInnes failed, Lennon failed, Levein failed, Ross most recently failed in League One ffs, yet here we are, knocking someone whose made a career out of doing what no other Scottish manager has been able to do.
A former England national team, Eredivisie winning, Uefa Cup runner up, English Premiership manager and some guys don't want him. Wowzers.
