Seems everyone and his dog have had their say on this thread. Except me, so i wiil join the debate.
Here we are nine weeks after Pedro left, with Murty still managing the team. With no sign of a
manager on the horizon, despite you would think having interviewed some candidates. In London
seemingly. Is it not strange there is no manager in place when the league is still up for grabs?
Surely there must have been at least one candidate who could take the heat of Murty.
Somebody we could afford.
And after our Mcinness statement, there is now more questions than answers.
Is it simply a case of the board bottling it, knowing they will putting their jobs and the club on the line
if they get this one wrong after the 2 previous shambles they appointed.
Or is it because there is no money to pay for a manager, his backroom staff, and a transfer kitty.
The question must be asked....
How much money do we have for those things, who knows.
Transparency was a keyword used by King, on several occasions. But it has dissapeared
into the void along with the 10 Million pound that Pedro spunked away. On players some of whom
despite their huge cost to us, have played little or no part in the team this season.
Or is it a combination of the two. No bottle No Money.
The question that must be asked is. "Were they really looking for a manager"?.
Or were they looking for a scapegoat to save their necks?
I mean we will always be in their debt for saving the club, and they done a fantastic job in doing it.
But running a Football club is another matter.
Here at last is my scenerio.
After Pedro was sacked we waited 8 wks or so until we heard something from the board.
This is after the 2 Aberdoom games. Now basically the statement from the board was
a hatchet job on one of our former players.
And tagged on at the end of the statement was the line about Murty being given the job
AT LEAST till the end of the yr.
Now we know that within an Hour or so of Mcinness becoming our manager he had a change of heart, for some reason.
What happened could have went like this...
The board had to make it look as if they were doing something. So they contacted Mcinnes soon after Pedro left,
knowing there was know way he was getting the job.
Mcinness is up for it and they work out a contract between them etc, and he agrees to join us.
Then after the sheep games then get a toady journalist to put up a story that we had the money to pay
the £800K and we were willing to pay.
At this time the board were either skint, or they were in complete dissagreement about him as manager.
So they did what they have done all season. Nothing.
How many times have our club been messed about in the last cpl yrs.
Players attacked, all the media lies etc etc....
And they done nothing about it. Doing nothing is the safe option for them it seems.
So to stop Mcinness becoming manager,for one of the above reasons, they simply e-mailed him his contract.
Which was prolly different from the one they had discussed.
IE Your wages are now mince, you are not allowed to sign players,
and don't bring your backroom staff and also there is no money for players.
They knew Mcinnes couldn't do anything about it.
Is this the reason for the last minute about turn from Mcinness?
Job done when Mcinness turns the job down. The board go on a backslapping binge and sing
a few choruses of Follow, Follow.
So they have sneakily changed the focus from their own inadequacy, to Mcinness.
They continue on as if it had nothing to do with them, that they "played it by the book".
In the hope our support buy it, and we should be thankfull to them for saving us from the BOTTLER.
And some did buy it.
They can now say they are still working on it, and then they put the noose around
Murties neck to save their own once again.
Did we actually interview anyone?
I mean if we had money we would have a manager by now surely to fu8k.
They are hiding something from us for sure......
I mean they are Rangers men, surely they want us to improve, so what is the problem
