I'm not defending him as a manager. It was a shambles and he was too driven by tactics domestically, setting up games against St Mirren or Motherwell as if it was Barcelona or Real Madrid. But in his first two seasons he seemed to be able to set us up going into games in Europe, especially away. The results he got there back that up. They weren't undeserved flukes. But his domestic record was shit. Losing to Partick three days after PSV says it all.
I reckon he got lucky. Away from home tells us a different story.
His second season (79/80) in charge was abominable.
As for the rest...
I do not want to be on here battering heroes.
But I won't be on here defending what was never acceptable, should never be acceptable, ever.
