New Assistant Manager

[ictchris]

Who will be our new assistant manager?  Who do you want and who do youthink we will get?

Candidates could be Malky Thomson, although Chester will doubtless have a bit of cash and he might not want to pack it in down there.  Maybe get Charlie back involved, that would be an interesting one  :015:  Also, Kevin MacDonald just left the Republic of Ireland job but is still involved at Aston Villa as reserve coach.  Would he leave that job to come to the SPL as an assistant?

Personally I am sure it will be Hagi.  IHE said it and he only speaks the truth.

[Scotty]

Based on comments here over the last few months the shortlist will be .....

Malky

Shearer

Hagi

IHE's Shearer comment continues to haunt me though as that is one name that would be a slap in the face for most ICT fans after his gloating on TV when he went to Aberdeen .............

[Guest TinCanFan]

Personally, I think Hagi is a bit too well known to come to ICT.

[RiG]

Erm, Hagi would go onto astronomical wages if he did come.

Maybe trimming the budget by say Brewstard's wages for example would help. :023:

[Pele_Is_God]

Hagi was a wind-up, Shearer would be a good appointment but I dont think he would be welcomed by the majority of the support. It will be Malky so not really much point discussing it.

[Scotty]

I agree about Hagi - I didnt say he would come, just that he would be on the shortlist of names trotted out a la Warnock ..... (but this time not necessarily by the club).

The name in the frame will be Shearer, and i predict a lot of fans will be very uneasy about this, which will make it all the easier for Malky to step back in at the last minute ......

[Guest CaleyJaggy]

I was obviously in a coma, but what did shearer do/say again cause I don't really remember much after him and pele left tbh.

[Pele_Is_God]

He was on Offside with Tam Cowan and I think something was said, I can't remember exactly what though. Scotty will be able to fill you in.

How about, feck the assistant manager post and replace the manager with Billy Davies.

Good shout Alex  :022: If only!!!

The last thing we need is for Brewster to get appointed a "yes" man like Thomson. That's part of the reason I liked Parkie being assistant as he wouldn't just do what Brewster said.

I wonder if Barry Wilson might be given the job  :024:

[Pele_Is_God]

I think Brewster needs someone with experience by his side. Wilson's day will come.

[Johnboy]

I wouldn't mind seeing CC back in that capacity...

There are quite a few I can think of who have proved to be much more effective at Number 2 than Number 1...

At the end of the day it's got to be Brewster's decision...

[+CaleyD]

I think our biggest problems lie further up the pecking order than Brewster and unless changes are made to personnel and attitudes at a higher level then it will matter not a jot who we have as manager/assistant manager.

Thats perceptive of you

[caleyblue]

i would like to malky back him and brewster did well first time round and can do again

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Hagi was a wind up - Shearer is 100% cert.  :001:

At the beginning of the season when Brew came Buckie would not allow Shearer to move and ICT would have had to ask DP to move which would have caused uproar. Buckie wanted Shearer to stay and stabilise their club and take them on a profitable Scottish Cup run.

Where are Buckie in the league ? - have the foundations been laid ? - is it not strange that DP leaves on the weekend Buckie are put out of the cup!!  :018:

[Guest birdog]

Maybe the manager and board will stick with the tried and tested "buy soon-to-be retired player get member of coaching staff free approach" Lee Bullen.

[caleyblue]

i for one would hate to see shearer back he left with a smugness that made me sick

[Johnboy]

Or Steven Pressley..?  :014:

[CELTIC1CALEY3]

The Lee Bullen theory has appeal. Brew discovers St Mirren plan to sign him so offers him Donalds job. Lee says 'I could n't do that' but......

[Strathman]

Two categories. An experienced player who is good enough to get in the side like Lee Bullen or possibly Jackie McNamara and wants their first step on the ladder. Or you could have someone like Davie Hay, knows the game well, has a good eye for a player and would not be after Brewster's job. Someone who will give good advice.

[Guest macgint71]

Watch this space

Lee Bullen

[Guest Arab4Ever]

Derek McInnes maybe?

everyone you have named will not want to move to sneck,it will be barry wilson,hes the easiest and cheapest option
