rex manning Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 They're also claiming McKinnon will be announced by us today. I want a pretentious signature too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneCornetto Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Bit of a kick in the baws re: Hoppy if true. I can understand if he wanted to stay with livi but why any Morton supporter nevermind shareholder would join the manky mob I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Hate Manpower Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 If it's McKinnon then it's just typical Morton......" Right chaps, I've called this board meeting to discuss who the next manager should be, now word of mouth is that the fans really don't want McKinnon so I suggest we do a curveball and hire McKinnon anyway, like we always do, go against the fans wishes, who's in? Right that's sorted, McKinnon it is" Morons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneCornetto Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Where did you hear that Morton fans really don't want Mckinnon? I'd be ok with him coming in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Hate Manpower Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Yes OneCornetto let's hire a manager who is no better than what we had, really shows cracking ambition, great stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Hate Manpower Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Also to add, if you actually had the ability to read and understand it's quite clear the majority of fans based on here and P&B are not keen on McKinnon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpoonTon Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 What has McKinnon ever achieved in management that would make him a better option than Duffy? He would be a distinctly sideways choice. It would also entirely undermine our whole change of direction statement. McKinnon isn't someone that fans would get excited about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El gofer Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 If not Hopkin then who? Not sure why so many are against McKinnon as opposed to other options? 20.1.09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Hate Manpower Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 What excactly has McKinnon done that makes him a better manager than Duffy, maybe I'm missing something here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Hate Manpower Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 McIntyre is clearly the strongest candidate out of all availabale managers at this moment in time, McKinnon doesn't even come close, ridiculous people think otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 There's hardly an outstanding choice of managers available. Out of Hoppy, McKinnon and McIntyre I'd have been happy enough with any of them tbh. Was beginning to get quite positive about Hopkin given his record after 2 full seasons in management. McIntyre was my preferred choice at the start but McKinnon did well at Raith but not so good at Dundee Utd. They are a basket case of a club though.

Clydeview Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 I think McKinnon is probably considered a boring/predictable option (along with most of the other names mentioned) that doesn't have any history which suggests he'd be any improvement on Duffy. A really ambitious/interesting appointment would probably tip the scales for me to buy a season ticket. McKinnon/McIntyre/McCulloch are as predictable as they come...

SpoonTon Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Appointing McKinnon would feel like the a repeat of the Scotland manager situation. McKinnon would be our McLeish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're a moron if you don't in any case. £200 (£11 a game) is stupid value. Tbh, your continuous "look at me, i'm no gawn to the fitbaw" is boring as fuck. TIME FOR CHANGE!

HamCam Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 While I think Morton has a recent history of keeping faith with the manager are we really that attractive an opportunity to entice a 'top' candidate? I would have thought our appeal would have been to someone starting out as a manager or someone who has been out of a job for a period. Realistically someone like Hopkin is likely to have 'better' options including staying put, bottom-feeders in the Premiership and the lower leagues in England. Personally, I would prefer a left-field appointment than McKinnon but I suspect the Board will play it safe with a Duffy Mark II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
