SFA board to approach Walter Smith

[BegbieHSC]

Seen in a few papers that he's up for it too.

He's been retired for 7 years. What a terribly backwards thinking appointment.

[Michael]

SFA is a shambles.

[Oscar T Grouch]

As CEO or manager? According to Chick Dung yesterday on Sportsound his wife winnae allow him to unretire.

[Ozyhibby]

If this is true, it’s a good indication of how much change Petrie and Co have in mind at the SFA.

I'd hope that in itself shows why Leeanne should avoid like the plague, though it also shows why they need her.

Manager - it's oor Rod, and the rest of the board with this bright idea apparently.

Friend sent me this when he was touted to replaced Pedro, applies to this as well though.

Yestwrday the papers were saying Petrie wanted McLeish. It's like we've went back 12 years

Why would the SFA still be interested in LD this week? The game against the Thes was on Saturday.

Valid point, plus we had the audacity to win so automatically puts a black mark against her name.

Lets wait and see the details. If the cardigan is working with a younger coach like Scott Gemmil then it may be something that could work.
Experienced man nurturing the younger coach to eventually take on the job.

[StevieCowan]

Petrie and MacRae in charge of appointing the national manager 😂😂

[green day]

I sometimes wish there was a subforum on here with threads which didn't turn anti Hibs within minutes.

If it's not Lennon for being a crap manager, it's Dempster for some reason, then we get the full bingo by including Petrie as a SFA lackey FFS!

Some people seem unhappy unless they are whining about something..... anything.

He has been the most successful manager in their history so I'm not sure what the argument is.....

[Bostonhibby]

What's Alfred Ramsey doing? Got to be in with a shout now that we know what the criteria is and mortality shouldn't be a barrier.

Well Said! This post should be a sticky.

Who do people think should get the Scotland job?

A sign of ambition would be nice.

Ireland appointed Trappatoni back in 2008. A manager of a similar pedigree, outside the SFA establishment old boys would inspire the fans and the players.

Walter Smith is not the answer.

[Velma Dinkley]

How much was he paid through the illegal EBTs?

and?

McCoist was a rookie and remained one when he walked into a firestorm at Ibrox.

Scott Gemmill has ran the U16s, U19s and U21s at National level. He knows the ins and outs of the SFA. More importantly he is the go to guy when SPFL managers want information on a young Scottish player as he knows most of them at elite level.

And it's a ***** idea.managers should be there on merit after proving themselves at the highest level. Not rookie youth team managers.

Think if Hearts finish bottom six Potter might become available. Can the national team wait that long though.

That make any difference to his ability as a football manager?
