    He didn't say. John Kennedy is staying that is all I know.

    Think he seemed a bit shell-shocked compared to interviews i've seen in the past. Can't wait for him to get started - only wish he we didn't have to wait until mid-June for him to see the squad. If only they'd all agree to come back early in light of the qualifiers and the new manager needing a look at them!

    Think silly season is heading for the stratosphere

    Said he has staff in mind but nothing has been finalised, what I was expecting really.

    The squad has 31 players and 9 out on loan so a lot of exits on the cards. Quality over quantity. I was waiting for " how long do you think you will be here Brendan?" from the laptop loyal.

    Plan's to get the stadium full every week by playing attacking football and scoring goals..
    Prefers to not have 2 player's for every position, and use the kid's for the rest, really interesting point that was. The academy kid's must be buzzing..
    Pretty much said he's lined up his staff and that it doesn't have to be a Celtic connection. Think that means it won't be anyone like Clark..
    Singled out Broony as a player he's always admired..
    Aiming to hit the ground running and sort out what we've got pretty quickly and what we need to identify..
    All have said we haven't discussed the budget and pushing the boat out, which I find hard to believe. I take it from that that he's being backed with what he wants regardless..

    In amongst all that was his obvious affinity for us etc etc..

    Sound's all good to me..

    Dominate Scottish football and compete in Europe. Mentioned developing guy's like Sterling and selling him for 49 mill. Said for all we know we could already have 10 million pound player's in the academy. He's right, if we don't try, they'll never be another Tierney..

    Decent press conference, press asking some stupid questions as usual.

    He seems a bit shell shocked and knackered, understandably. :56:

    Few points I've taken from that though:

    - He's clearly honoured to be here
    - Wants a smaller, tight knit squad - IDEAL
    - He clearly has a decent budget IMO, going by what he said regarding support from DD.
    - Expect more youth to come through

    The whole point in Lennoxtown was to get the very best out our team and youngsters there will be gems there if not now then they will come along, Kieran Tierney is one classic example of a manager ( Ronny ) willing to develop young players give them time and attention and more importantly a chance and look at how well he has done.

    He said that he felt comfortable with the budget that would be made available to him and that when a player became available that was affordable he would be able to make a move for him. That suggested to me that there will be slightly more leeway in the transfer market. Don't think we'll be breaking the bank or anything but it should be refreshing after the miserable sums we've spent the last couple of years.

    Also mentioned a few times that we won't just be aiming for young players with resale value. Said you need a bit of both. Think Lawwell hinted at similar.

    All very encouraging in my opinion.

    I think Liam Henderson will be a big player for us next season.
