Who do we all want?

Danny Lennon for me.

Robbo and Rice I reckon!!!

Do me.always liked Robbo, but maybe without rice.

Massively underwhelmed if it is Robertson.

Alistair Fraser tweeting that it's Robertson.

Got us promoted first time round, should be able to attract some decent names, where's the issue?

Underwhelmed is surely synonymous with Sheerin.

Given the most likely candidates named over the last week or so: Danny Lennon and Paul Sheerin then I'd be happy with Robertson over them

Hopefully we've got him on a month-to-month contract.  

Really? when was Robbo last in charge of a  club ? 2012 with East Fife? 

 

nah underwhelmed is an understatment 

This is just utterly deflating.  Waiting around for weeks and we appoint someone who was good fourteen years ago, who hasn't had a job in five years, someone who hasn't had any success in football since leaving us.  Do the board not have any contact numbers for anyone other than former players or people they've heard of before?

John Hughes got us into Europe lets get him back and all. Robertson hasn't been in charge of a team in years and possibly hasn't worked at a full time club in over ten years. He's had zero success since he left us.

Some of the names banded about recently have been brutal. A bunch of ex ICT players and managers for seemingly no other reason than they used to play for or manage us.

If we go back up with him in charge fantastic but I can't help but feel that this is an absolute minter of an appointment.

ETA: This, apparently, won't be the last of the 'rewinds' that we will see at the club.

Just when you thought the ICT board couldnt make a bigger mess of it all we get this. 

Its the gift that just keeps giving

Robbo, based on one good season in his managerial career 15 years ago. utter car crash since then. Do the board actually care about what the fans think on anything. Robbo would be near the top of nearly no-ones list. Backward/small time mentality as usual. 

This was the chance to start afresh and take the club in a new direction. Just such an uninspired choice.

Maybe we`re getting Robbo and Sheerin

Oh well, let's just all make him a failure before he get's his chance. I seem to remember a Mr Foran was a welcome and mostly popular choice before the start of last season. That went well. 

Anyway, it's reassuring to know that we have so many experts on the forum able to make these judgements.

Come on Manny, its hardly an inspired appointment is it? What exactly has he done since he left us? Last club East Fife in 2012. 

underwhelmed

Surely he's coming in as DoF no?

I've no idea, but he was able to get us motivated enough before. Better than wasting any spare cash luring Sheerin here. 

Football has moved on significantly since he was last here, does he have the contacts? Is Donald Park coming back with him? 

why dont we just go the whole hog and get Pele back as DoF

We've had to pay compensation for Robertson, according to the reports.  He is a development coach at Hearts, under 17s though rather than under 20s for Sheerin.  

when i first heard Robbo mentioned today i thought "Robbo as DoF, Lennon as Manager, thats not bad"

lets wait and see what transpires.

better yet, why not take someone completely random, that doesn't cost anything in compo and maybe isn't an ex-player?  spread the net a little wider?  exciting and different doesn't need to mean expensive.we keep shopping in the reduced section of the Co-Op, even taking stuff we've already returned.  Why not take a look at Aldi or Lidl?

Maybe we're getting neither !! Maybe it's Butcher ?

 

Looking forward to hearing the logic behind this from the board, should be amusing.

With Robbo allegedly coming back does this signal a change in the power balance at boardroom level?  Is it not true that he had a big fall out with Mr Sutherland and is very much Mr Savage's man?

Surely he's back as DoF and not manager. Surely...
