According to Southends official site he had his contract terminated by mutual consent today with a view to returning to Scotland. I'm hoping thats us nabbed him then. P&J said he would be joining us if he agreed a release.
-
He handles the media very well, listened to his press conference when he signed and he was really good i thought. I like what he's doing so far and he appears to be motivating the players and hopefully it will bring some results(hopefully on Sunday).
-
Again Butcher continues to pursue decent players. Steven Smith would be an excellent signing and Jim Paterson equally. Surely Lionel must go now. If we get Smith thats us with 4 left backs which we don't need, i don't know why they don't just pay off Lionel, like they did with Rory. If we got these guys plus Foran and Kerr then hats off to a good set of players for Mr Butcher.
-
May try and get a couple of loan moves. But Kerr and Foran have more chance of being successful here than any of Brewsters signings. No point is using the money to keep the out of contract trio anymore....cause there all leaving! Cash dosen't come by often for us to spend so i say spend as much of it now at a time when we really need too.
-
Both were decent people to meet but were incredibly difficult to work with....so i'm told.
-
Say Nak if your taking Cowie any chance of us getting Jobi McAnuff in exchange??? I watched him playing on Sky Sports a wee while back and he looked immense. what you say?
-
Would imagine that this would mean going with Richie Byrne at left-back i reckon, if he's match fit. Keep Black and Cowie on and play Vigurs just behind the striker.
-
He could be no worse than Barrowman surely. At least in this case we will hopefully be getting a striker with a proven record in the SPL. Terry Butcher so far has good ideas for players imo.
-
When Brewster was first here home form was poor. when he returned it slowly got even worse. New manager means new things will happen, i agree. I can see a real turnaround in our home form coming.
-
The most inevitable signing we could make. 3 Scotland caps and a previous Newcastle Utd apprentice is hardly a bad record though. Would quite like to see him here. He could certainly provide competition for Duncan or he is a replacement for Black.
-
Indeed it is a new era, 2 years too late but it is a new era. Butcher certainly show's alot more personality than Brewster ever did in interviews and i have to admit that i didn't disagree with a word he said last night. Lets just hope results come now.
-
Chris Iwelumo's finishing...
-
I would have to agree there. If Brewster was still here i think Cowie may already have made other plans but now that Butcher is in i think we may keep him, at least until the end of the season.
-
He was the best possible canditate who we could get and i'm fairly confident he can guide us away from relegation. Only one answer...yes.
-
If any other club but Hearts had tried to prize Robbo away 4 seasons ago i'm convinced he would still be our manager now. I agree that if Butcher fails then bringing him back would be a sensible soloution but i'am positive about Butcher.
-
didnt he come from elgin??? He did, but strictly speaking when he joined he was drafted into our under 19 system as i recall therefore he did technically progress through our youth system.
-
He was an international quality defender in his days though. Who know's, perhaps he can mould the misfits mentioned above into decent players although i wouldn't hold my breath
-
I bet Brian Kerr will be one of our new signings now given he is on a free and was good player under Butcher at Motherwell. He defnitely needs to bring in a striker though, i wonder if Barry is the one allegedly returning??
-
Esson Tokely, Munro, Mihadjuks, Hastings Morais, Cowie, Black, Imrie Vigurs Rooney bench. Fraser, McGuire, Byrne, Gathuessi, Duncan, Wood, Barrowman
-
He looked a changed man on Saturday. He was outstanding.
-
One of the brightest talents to emerge from our youth system in years. I disagree with the lack of going in for 50-50s. When he played against Rangers i recall him successfully disposessing Broadfoot and Steven Davis in challenges that some players wouldn't go in for. He carries a sweet left foot shot and cross and his set pieces are fairly impressive(apart from free-kicks )
-
According to BBC Butcher has dropped the media commitments. I for one don't think we could have got any better as i think Terry Butcher was the best manager to select out of all who applied and all this talk of commitment to keeping us up is sad. What manager wouldn't do all within his power to get his team of the bottom??? I think all we can really do now is back the new coaching staff, get right behind the team and turn up in numbers on Sunday to try and put one over on our old foes from Parkhead.
-
I certainly won't miss him for the next few games. He is well past his best now and has shown it the last couple of games and what he did on Saturday was just plain stupid. The only game he has played well in was the Partick game which i think highlights McBain is ready for lower league football.
-
He will go to either Hibs or Falkirk imo. Hibs will pack of Ma-Kalamby so it will be Brown and Szamotulski or theirs Falkirk who only have one permanent keeper in Robert Olegnik. I reckon we should may'be try and get Graham Smith from Rangers or mayb'e that Trinidad guy Kelvin Jack. Both are avaiable i think.
-
I had read that Grassa and whoever else conducted interviews questioned applicants commitment to the cause of keeping ICT in the spl. If Terry Butchers juggling between his international duty then he is not the man for ICT if thats the case. Knox is the man of my choice.
