McIntyre gone?

[Dombie]

Jim McIntyre punted by the pars?

BBC Scotland understands #Dunfermline have parted company with manager Jim McIntyre.

[TowerHibs]

Yeah what I'm reading

[Col2]

Let's hope they don't get someone in who turns them around very quickly. Jumbo Jim anyone?

[Jim44]

You can see where they're coming from, trying to cash in on the boost of a new manager but I suspect they've left it a tad late and are clutching at straws.

Jimmy Calderwood

[Northernhibee]

Please let it be Fat Jim. Would love to see the fat *******s wee greeting face when they get relegated :greengrin

I doubt Jeffries would take a job where it's looking increasingly likely that he'd have to add "manager of a relegated club" to his CV.

At this stage of his career, I'm pretty sure he's not desperate to manage in the first division. Then again, he might love the opportunity to turn the Pars around and pump US into the first division, thus becoming Sir Jumbo to the Gorgie Loyal...

Jimmy Calderwood

Only repeating what I heard on Clyde 1

Shame, he's actually a really nice guy I meet him quite a lot in town and through work, still giving him it tight about "it was never a penalty", he's always happy to chat about football.

[Onion]

Strange time to fire the manager - desperation. Jumbo Jim favourite but without the ability to get new bods in would be a poisoned challis.

In saying that, JJ owes us one last farewell laugh at his expense :greengrin

And so the merry-go-round cranks into action once again. Jimmy Calderwood anyone?

Say what? I've got both halves of the argument covered for goodness sake!

Well Yogi is out of the running :greengrin

If Jimmy Calderwood got the job back, that might mean that Jimmy Nichol could leave Killie to team up again. I wouldn't blame him for wanting to get away from Kenny Shiels. He was on the tele earlier being asked about the League Cup final and started to talk about squirrels with nasty diseases.

Both Neil Lennon and squirrels are ginger.

Did he not manage that with Falkirk?

Even more reason to win tomorrow, get 7 points ahead before the new man can make any difference.

Did he not manage that with Falkirk?

Before my time following Scottish Football:

Jefferies left Berwick (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berwick_Rangers_F.C.) in 1983 to become a manager (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manager_(football)) at East of Scotland Football League (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_of_Scotland_Football_League) club Gala Fairydean (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gala_Fairydean_F.C.), but returned to the club to begin his senior managerial career in September 1988. Despite a great deal of financial turmoil during that time, he turned the struggling team around to the extent that they set a club record of 21 games unbeaten in the league during season 1988–89. In the 1990 close season Jefferies took over at Falkirk (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falkirk_F.C.), guiding them to the Scottish First Division (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Football_League_First_Division) title (and promotion to the Scottish Premier Division (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Premier_Division)) in 1991 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1990-91_in_Scottish_football) and1994 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1993-94_in_Scottish_football). Falkirk also won the Scottish Challenge Cup (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Challenge_Cup) in 1993 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Challenge_Cup_1993-94).

I hope not for our sake. If we can keep on improving, fine, we should be ok. But Calderwood did very well at Dunfermline the last time, so lets hope if he does get the job he doesn't start turning them round till next season.
