    Congratulations to Yogi...

    ...on winning the Manager Of The Year award.


    There must have been a lot of pressure to give the award to Deila but, IMO, Yogi deserves it a lot more.

    Tbh getting ICT to the SC Final is undoubtedly an achievement.

    However 5 points from 30 and no wins since 14 February is hardly outstanding. In fact it's reminiscent of the run he had Hibs on when it started to go badly downhill.

    i know, but it's an award for the season as a whole. In all likelihood, they're going to finish third and win the Scottish Cup. No mean achievement considering the resources and Fan base.

    Yeah but we're 2nd so that a better achievement. Which league is irrelevant, just ask hertz, they've celebrated the division 1 title like a champions league win.

    Can't wait to hear them tell us about their special relationship with Celtic, Chelsea etc, and how Aberdeen are a wee team for finishing 2nd.

    Yogi deserves it.
    He operates on a tiny budget for a team that gets crowds of 3-4000 in a town that still sees more buses set off for Parkhead and Ibrox than actually watch matches at the Caledonian Stadium. That same club never posts losses and cuts their cloth accordingly. He has taken Inverness to third in the table and the Scottish Cup final. and will take Inverness into Europe for the first time.
    Why would anyone else come into the reckoning?

    Delia has ten to fifteen times the budget of every other club and didn't win the treble and frankly was an embarrassment in Europe. McInnes consolidated so well done to him but his budget dwarfs Yogi's. Neilson has done well in the second tier but it is the second division and I'm not having the MOTY being awarded for consistently putting teams of tradesmen away.

    When Hughes was at Hibs, his team were third but it was not good enough for some.

    We've got a long way to go to reach those dizzy heights, please god Stubbs can get us back there and into Europe again through our league position.

    Well done Yogi, i just wish you'd received this award with us.

    Well done Yogi and all the best in the final will be backing ICT and hope the team wins it for you.

    So who would you have given it to?

    Hughes has overachieved the most on limited resources which makes him the deserving winner.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    Very pleased for Yogi - I hope he can win the Scottish Cup too. As others have said it would be a huge achievement. Good for him

    Hardly.

    Inverness are one of the smallest clubs in the Premiership and will probably have one of the smallest budgets in the league as well.

    Despite that, they are third in the Premiership and are favourites to lift the Scottish Cup in a few weeks' time. I would hardly describe that as rewarding mediocrity.

    I agree with these comments. Well done Yogi now go lift the Cup.

    Surely now those who thought he wasn't deserving of the Manager of the Season award have changed their minds?

    They must have, for a club with an average support of just over 2000 to finish 3rd in the Premiership and win the Scottish cup is a tremendous achievement. Well done to Yogi and Latapy!

    Puts to bed the whole "Butcher overachieved at Caley" myth too.


    Do you think your security can keep you in purity, you will not shake us off above or below. Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

    Well done to Yogi and proud I had you as a neighbour for a while in Leith. Just a pity I hadn't known Latapy, Yorke and Lara were downstairs one evening...
