    I don't understand how he got the gig in the first place......

    Never finished top 6 with Dundee utd

    Total disaster at Leicester

    Average job at hearts while spending more than rivals.

    Imo his reputation has always been far better than it should be based on his successes as manager.

    Plus he's a jambo cock

    Harry Redknapp but like all the other suggestions, it just won't happen.

    Potter is here to stay and we can only hope that the hawrts job will become vacant before long and he might be swayed to go back into Club management.

    I think it's time we went down the route of bringing in a foreign manager. Just because it didn't work with Bertie does not mean we should not try it again.
    We need to change our whole style of play. Our ball retention last night was shocking as well as the the way we let Wales dictate the shape and pace of the game.
    There are good Scottish managers out there, unfortunately they price themselves out of the job.

    After years of being pish I don't expect a lot from Scotland but I do at least expect to be going into the last couple of qualifiers with a chance, three games in and we're not going to qualify. Fact. It will be at least 2018 before we reach another world cup 20 years after the last one a whole generation of scots will have never seen Scotland at a world cup. Disgrace. Levein. Out. Now.

    Captain Mainwaring would be my first choice, I was going to say Basil Fawlty but I don't think we will ever be able to command a big name leader any more - which is a shame as it would have kept some consistency going on the press conference and team selection front.

    Another guy who could step into Potters shoes in the media and man management area would be Spike Milligan and I don't think being dead would necessarily put Spike at a disadvantage.

    Yogi would be better manager than Potter
    And think of all the current and ex Falkirk players who would get Scotland caps - nae worries about dubious heritage there.

    Could deliberately not choose any Yams and trot out excuses about lack of experience etc with impunity...loving it already.

    If Yogi has a chance then Calderwood could be in with a shout as well, we could move the national stadium to the Midlands to accomodate him.

    Whilst the SFA still consider how you dress in the morning, football and chances of Scotland progressing, will not change. I have all but given up on Scotland for a variety of reason: P!sh, *****, Portugal 5-0 game with mainly Rankers players, no vision, unable to see potential or pick players who are performing, institutional bias, potter, brown ... etc.

    Whilst we are free of the hunstitution, all should be changed in Scottish football to enable a proper Scottish team to be built.

    Look at the positives. Fletcher is back in the team having won the war with Potter, had a good game and a ridiculously disallowed goal. Potter will be sacked in the morning.
    Potter will probably be given till after Tuesdays defeat then he will either resign ( but dont think he has the balls to do that ) or sacked on Wednesday, Potter has been a dissaster right from the start and was a very very bad choice.

    Very few good Scottish managers out there who could be seriously tempted. David Moyes just wouldn't be interested. Perhaps we'll need to look beyond a Scot for the job, dare I say, even an Englishman.

    Harry Redknapp would be great, though I doubt he'd want it.

    I would love it to be a big name that will show a signal of intent by the sfa. But really can't see it. They will obviously pick a guy on par with the current idiot in charge of our national side. So the folk that are saying coyle, arry, moyesy etc. don't expect it even tough they will be wonderful appointments. It will be another useless appointment by those nobs in the sfa.

    If Leveen does get the bullet , I think Mark Wotte will be put in temporary charge until they find a permanent replacement.

    My concern would be that Redknapp would just see the job as a stop gap until the England job became available.

    The national team job shouldn't be seen as a stepping stone to another role somewhere else, it's a long term job that also needs short term results (if that makes sense).

    I wouldn't mind someone like Houllier to get the top job with a passionate Scotsman like Joe Jordan or John Collins as his assistant.

    We've no chance of qualifying now but we need to improve our results towards the end of the campaign so we don't drop down another seeding for the next qualifiers

    imo It's because English football is so over hyped as soon as there's a Scotsman playing or managing there people assume he must be the dugs baws.

    What was the name of the German guy that won the euro's with Greece? Would he be a realistic target just now?

    How old was Hertha? Just cos he pulled a bird at that age we shouldn't hold that against him.

    True. It can't be too long before we are mixing it with Malta, Cyprus and Latvia.

    Smith would do a good job, there's no doubting that but the way he bumped us at the first opportunity after we rescued his career leaves a sour taste in the mouth so struggle to find enthusiasm for appointing him again.

    saying that a couple of wins and i'm sure i'd soon forget about him bumping us in the past.

    Another Craig Levein that appears to be growing a reputation as a good manager without actually achieving anything.

    Talks a good game but so far only been able to relegate a team and then unable to even get them to finish in the top two in the first division.

    he's been the best we have had in a long time even though he wasnt in charge for that long, mcleish bumped us too but i would much rather see smith back in charge as he isnt getting younger and may be more likely to bump any approach from another club.

    i know what you mean though mate it left a bitter taste in my mouth too, we need someone who will fire the players up to holding onto 1-0 leads against teams like wales, and fire us up at half time when drawing 0-0 at home to serbia, potter just doesnt do that, he stood there like a pleb when we went 1-0 up last night.

    thats why i would be in favour of someone like souness or strachan.
