Hi to all, first post here. Very interesting and entertaining forum, If I can call it that? Are there any other autistic bears on the site? So many names being bandied about it is hard to keep up. I appreciate the people wanting Walter, Ferguson, Allerdyce etc, surely a manager with a proven European track record as well as domestic would be the soundest option. I like McInnes, but he has no real record in Europe, Moyes has but I am unsure. I know a lot of fellow fans would like a Scottish manager, but to succeed in future CL, Europa looking farther afield may be the best option. Though they are somewhat thin on the ground.

100% treefinger! Everyone on the McInnes bandwagon fails to mention his record in Europe is poor and Has been found wanting against fairly mediocre European sides in the Europa qualifiers over the past 3/ 4 seasons that they’ve been in them. If the board want him then I’ll back him 100% but I’d rather go elsewhere to be honest

My thoughts are on a new manager yes we need someone who understands the demands of Scottish football but we need someone who can harness a few flair players to. compete in Europe because if we can't compete then what are we.

Absolutely @Wee_Bear. No disrespect toward DM. I saw a post regarding Homme, the ex Belgian Goalkeeper, IMO, it makes pretty good reading, his CV. Of course everyone has and is completely entitled to their opinion. I also fully understand the concerns regarding foreign managers/ coaches. Looking over the years almost every manager from a certain country that moves to another always recruit players from where they came. PC, DA, were no different. I do find that the Portuguese and similar countries clearly do produce talented footballers but also lazy hotheads too.

The new manager is staring you in the face, he was in charge today. Get a good advisor to work with him.
