McAllister is a better option than some of the other names being bandied about (e.g. Hughes), but I'd be hoping for somebody with a better track record than McGhee or McAllister. I'm not sure we'll get one though...

Great, another Darren Mackie thread!

Didn't seem to bother him when he fucked off to Metz.

Is Eric Black no longer an option?

Would have him instead of Hughes or Levein every day of the week.

What was wrong with getting Dutch trialists in?

Paul Sturrock wouldn't be that bad would he? Record is no worse than McGhee's.

I'm stuck offshore with limited acces to t'internet. Is McGhee a shoe-in now?

Non starter for me, not even as an assistant manager. Top bloke though.

Has Stoney never heard of Rinus Michels?

Surely you can't be serious?

...was as far as I got.

When will folk... 3) Stop greeting like bairns about folk greeting like bairns about folk wanting rid of JC/wanting JC to stay?

Mini-skirts. Total SPL points over last 5 seasons. Celtic 438 Rangers 410 Hearts 292 Aberdeen 286 Hibernian 265 Motherwell 243 Kilmarnock 243 Inverness CT 228 Dundee Utd 216 Falkirk 170 St Mirren 114 Dunfermline 99 Livingston 53 Hamilton 41 Dundee 33 Gretna 23 Dundee Utd's is terrible!

Facts have no place on football forums. Close the door behind you!

If Levein gets the job then I hope they are able to refund season tickets. Can't stand the cunt or his style of football.

Who was the dozy bird claiming Fergie has had a lot of luck? (note: I'm not referring to Archie MacPherson).

Alain.

It wasn't bad, some decent interviews with Hewitt and McGhee. I presume Strachan and Leighton were busy. Strange fairly pointless half hour programme though, seemed like an ITV filler to me. Always good to see the clip of Keegan wheeled out though!

I think he'll stay. I hope he does.

Keep him on the same wages. Strip him of the captaincy. It's not rocket science.

Probably still quicker than Big Lee though.

Anybody think Willie should be on the blower to Strachan? Far far far more money in the EPL versus European football and the opportunity to get it right up the Infirm once more?
