That said, it remains seriously strange behaviour, for a manager/coach, and that context doesn't explain it, far less excuse it. So I was right when I said "none of the above". 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we wonder why we can't progress as a club. Maybe we should give Barry the gig. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we wonder why we can't progress as a club. Maybe we should give Barry the gig. I think that it was odd behaviour. I am not sure that I have seen the likes before. It reads like he has some regard for the fhilth. The photograph would come back to haunt him, and us, nothing is surer. I am also concerned about appointing a manager/coach with little or no understanding of the physical nature and requirements of the SPL. Clement -and even GvB who had previous playing experience with us- never came to terms with that reality. (To say nothing of the eccentricities of officialdom in this country.) BF has, to all intents and purposes, failed his audition. Perhaps you haven't noticed. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Marc O'Rose?) -He will do anything for a photo opportunity? -He has been a sellikman since the very minute of his conception? -He is a green brigadier manque? Do contextualise the snap.

I'll keep my "snippets' to myself in future. Don't do that. We want to reserve the right to take the p*ss. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are legitimate reasons for questioning his appointment, wearing Celtic scarf for a few minutes after a game isn't. If you are wanting a manger who understands Scottish Football and who'd be successful, that's a very limited pool - Big Bad Ange, Derek McInnes and Calum Davidson. All pie in the sky anyway as at this moment in time it's simply a rumour. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CammyF 9,381 Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago With Heart & Hand tweeting about the type of players we'd need to fit Rose's playing style, does the rumour have some substance? If it hadn't I'd have expected H&H to come out and rubbish the rumour. But hey, what do I know. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure that I have seen the likes before. It reads like he has some regard for the fhilth. The photograph would come back to haunt him, and us, nothing is surer. Herr Rose would have to go some to live it down - not impossible, I concede. To do so, he would need (have to recruit) a battery of players who are fit, fast, physically strong, possessed of basic skills, which they are able to apply, tactically astute and flexible, are 'professional' on and off the pitch, who do not feel that they are slumming it, and who will refuse to be bullied. (The same would apply, no matter the appointment, of course.) If he can do that, and win, then the unfortunate photograph might, just might, be consigned to the dustbin of history. Much might depend upon nothing adverse emerging as to quite why he chose to behave in such a peculiar manner. Was it an empty gesture, or something more, em, sinister? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
