jimbobton Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Yeh Jim McIntyre or Hopkin for me.Mentioned him a few weeks ago and received the typical VT responseWould be an improvement on Duffy and would ensure Wake didn't get the job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madton Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 No he wouldn't - he left Queen of the South as a failure; why you'd expect him to do much better at a club with similar resources is baffling. There is only one candidate who does not know the meaning of the term 'league defeat' as he currently romps through the Swedish leagues. One who would literally walk on the surface of the North Sea to manage The Famous. This is Wake's time, and woe betide a board that passes up on that brief opportunity to appoint some proven mediocrity from Scottish football's managerial merrygoround instead. How did he leave Queens a failure, he left because a Premiership team came in for him and continued to do well by winning a national cup and getting County into the top 6. Would prob be the best we could get. He is a much much better prospect than your wankbank hero! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Toon Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 The first statement I want to hear is that we are staying full-time. After that I hope we appoint a youngish ambitious manager. I wouldn't be disappointed with David Hopkin given his recent managerial success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 How did he leave Queens a failure, he left because a Premiership team came in for him and continued to do well by winning a national cup and getting County into the top 6. No, he took over a side that had recently made the playoffs and dragged them down to midtable mediocrity. Which is why Queens fans were not bothered at all by his departure. And Ross County fans felt the same way about his departure earlier this season. If we're basing appointments on winning a national trophy before stinking the place out then you'd be as well touting John Hughes. These jobbers shouldn't darken the door of this once-proud club when there is a club legend and management prodigy available across the sea instead. The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away.

TRVMP Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Full-time management jobs in the UK get literally dozens of applicants. I'd be very interested to know the names of those who apply. There could be some left-field choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than 'being a frothing mess about getting constantly owned on the Internet' of course.

Jamie_M Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Mentioned him a few weeks ago and received the typical VT response Would be an improvement on Duffy and would ensure Wake didn't get the job Merely 'An improvement on Duffy' is not close enough to being what we require. Managerless over the past 12 weeks would have been an improvement on Duffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRVMP Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 There's a guy on P&B who seems somewhat ITK saying that Derek Anderson is in the running. I'm always skeptical of youth bosses moving into senior management because it's a different skillset in many ways but he seems to be a bright and hard-working guy.

He took them to the playoffs in his only full season with them! Queens didnt want to lose him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Jim McIntyre would be a great appointment. Won this league before and has relative success in the Premiership with Ross County along with a League Cup win. We could do a lot worse. I hope we get it sorted quickly however. Would hate for us to get to June and not have anyone in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunning1874 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Queens were newly promoted when McIntyre took over. He's not a manager who'll get a club massively overachieving like Livingston this year but he's a solid manager who'll consistently take a mid-table side into the playoffs.
