Who would be your replacement for Ronny?

The one thing every fan needs to remember. The overarching mindset when it comes to selecting any new manger is; are they value for money? Are they cheap enough?.

This board has proved time & again with its recruitment that the cheaper option is the more acceptable option.

Stubbs will be on that list & the biggest thing going for him is his affordability. Out of all the other bigger names the only one that might consider us would be Moyes. The guy has made a load of money & for sentimentality reasons I think he would be willing to do a couple of years up here for the package we could offer him.

 

How? We have some really good players in our team and some extremely poor players that woudnt get a game at hibs. We are level at the top of the premiership with Aberdeen in Feburary. I don't think anyone could do a worse job than Deila.

 

I didn't say better. I said he's doing quite well and Ronny's struggling with us.

Do you think either statement is untrue?

 

RD had won 2 trophies as a manager prior to arriving here :smiley-laughing002:

Wouldn't want Stubbs either. Want a manager who's worked at a club with similar expectations of winning week in, week out. Who that is, I don't know. There's a guy who earns £1m a year that should be able to find the right guy.

 

2 games? Really?

So we didn't get pumped out the qualifiers and never won a game in Europe? 2 losses my hole, even you can't believe that.


Just a straight answer, as it stands right now is Stubbs doing well with Hibs and is Ronny struggling at us?

 

You love playing Devils advocate. See when it's clear everyone is thinking one thing you take a different tact just for the sake of it. Think it's in your nature :smiley-laughing002:

 

And then we were soundly trounced in the Europa. If you're pretending it's only 2 losses that are the problem then I don't know what else to say to you except raise your expectations for us because they are seriously low at the moment.

I have never once said he'd be a better option. Just that he is currently doing a good job and currently Ronny isn't. He will be on any list of potential candidates.

I don't think he'll be far up but he will be on the list.

 

I don't want Stubbs at all, think he'd be another disaster.

Wouldn't say he's overachieving with that Hibs squad, it's just about expected but he has done well to get them to the League Cup Final. It's certainly the 2nd strongest squad in the League, possibly the best but I haven't seen enough of them or Sevco to give an opinion.

 

not sure who will get the job or who would actually want it under these circumstances but one thing is for sure we need a manager who will toughen us up , to many times when it comes down to a battle of who wants it the most, we get bullied and players don't look up for the fight

 

Moyes would jump at the chance to come here.

He has had a HUGE pay-off from Man Ushited, and a pay off from Real SoSoBad - he isn't short of cash, and we would offer him a decent wage.

In fact, the more I think about it Moyes would be a dream appointment.

 

I don't think money would the biggest issue for Moyes, it would be the conditions he would need to work under. We know with Keane's book that the board put a * of a lot of stipulations in the managers contract, something that seems to be backed up by the fact Ronny hasn't got his own men in.

 

Ronny has had way more time to get things right than any previous manager would have got purely for the reason the huns werent here to hammer us into the ground. And the fact that they were gone should really have made it easier for him to build a strong team without the pressure in the league. But his results in europe and the cups have really been abysmal. Where is this pressing, high tempo, attacking football he promised? All i see is side to side slow build up, predictable football. The way i see it now, anyone, and i mean anyone would do a better job. Unfortunately the board know this and will be happy to give us another cheap option.

 

No he wouldn't.
Moyes would be an utter disaster. He has failed in his last two jobs.
He is on a downwards spiral.
Alan Stubbs is on the up and up.

 

You weesht to *!

 

I haven't read Keane's book, nor do I know of any stipulations he claims were part of the contract, so I couldn't possibly comment on that.

All I do know, os that Celtic is still a big draw for any manager - particularly one with a point to prove, ala Moyes.

 

He didn't go into detail, just that there was a lot of clauses that weren't the norm.

I think the idea of being a Celtic manager is still a big draw, the reality may not live up to that though.
