The Naitch Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Shiels would be a good appointment but don't see him being keen on dropping down a level. "To be the man, you gotta beat the man" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Wouldn't surprise me if Dougie has someone lined up already. When McInally was fired, Rae moved swiftly to bring in Irons and Collins, suggesting that he had them lined up beforehand, so I wouldn't be surprised to see the same thing. Kenny Shiels is the outstanding out-of-work candidate for me, worked wonders with that Killie team and won them a cup. Of those in work, Paul Hartley or Ian Murray would be good, but both will be looking higher up the food chain than us at the moment I would imagine.

Colkitto Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Both have done well with part-time teams... oh wait... wasn't that why we hired Allan Moore? I've never rated Moore. I rate both Hartley & Murray Don't blame me I voted Yes!!!! - We tried to tell you !!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EanieMeany Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Reid has to be the stand-out candidate. I'd like Colin Cameron to be in the mix, he's done a brilliant job at Cowdenbeath. They're always extremely well organised both defensively and attacking-wise. They're punching well above their weight too, Cameron's definitely getting the best out of his players and is getting more than the sum of their parts from them.

Problem with Hartley and Murray is, as ThornTON just said, they would come with the same reputation Moore came with. IMO appointing from within, Hoppy/Marko/Warren etc, wouldn't change anything quickly. Surely it has to be someone with experience of this division, which Shiels hasn't. So for me, Reid fits the bill. McPherson also fits the bill but Reid would be my choice. <span style='font-size: 14px;'><em class='bbc'>"That LinwoodTon's a c*nt, eh?"</em></span> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cawston Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Wouldn't surprise me if Dougie has someone lined up already. I'd be amazed. Anyway, Hartley for me. Along the track the train came puffin, Morton 1 Celtic nuffin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunning1874 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Kenny Shiels is my preference, if not him then Billy Reid. There's absolutely no chance of Hartley or Murray coming to Morton. Unfortunately I think Rae'll go for Hopkin, but I can't see that working out well at all.

The Bewilderedbeast Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Davie Irons. Remember the day he was appointed after a defeat at Dens Park, Lazy Arsed Student and I were in the boardroom as guests of Davie McKinnon, in walks Crawford and Dougie just as Iros appointment was announced on TV, L.A.S. and I both go FURFUXAKE in almost synchronisation. Dougie was fucking raging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think any of the support is advocating it should be Hoppy, but its likely to be Dougies choice because it will be the cheapest option and there will be no compensation to pay.

I don't think people are suggesting him for the job long term. The fact he is already on the books and is a coach, probably means if a caretaker is required, it will be him. <span style='font-size: 14px;'><em class='bbc'>"That LinwoodTon's a c*nt, eh?"</em></span> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
