Hope it's not him - the SPL can ill afford to lose such great comedy-talent so soon after Cathro - a position Pedro has more than filled adequately !!. Did you catch his performance when telling his story of how he bravely faced up to Broony - sheer hilarious quality !!

Process of elimination;

Brendan Rodgers - No
Neil Lennon - No
Steve Robinson - No
Tommy Wright - No
Derek McInnes - No
Craig Levein - No
Martin Canning - Unlikely
Pedro Caixinha - Possible but don't think so

That then just leaves Jim McIntyre, Neil McCann, Lee McCulloch and Alan Archibald.

The last two are the most likely since neither of them have got a win yet in the league.

I'll say it's Archibald.

This seems bonkers - I mean I know they have not had a stellar start, but if they had beaten us they would only have been 2 points behind us.

I kinda understand the Houston one as he had made noises of discontent but McIntyre always seemed a good manager.

The chat has always been that the owner was really supportive and put a lot of cash in - wonder whats changed??

I know a couple of County fans and they didn't like him.

Playing players out of position, too direct a style (that didn't suit the players) etc etc.

If there was a feeling that he'd lost the fans, I suppose this was inevitable.


I think they're just struggling to replace Boyce's goals. How often do you see a team lose the guy who scores the vast majority of their goals go on to struggle badly shortly after?

Always respected him after that.

He did a good job at Dunfermline too, even there he was a bit under-appreciated.

IIRC a lot of the senior players at Dunfermline had rebelled and made it impossible for Steven Kenny to work there. McIntyre had been a senior player there and had to weed out all of his troublemaking pals to get the club back on track - not easy, but he did a decent job of it.

Sergio sledge
25-09-2017, 10:22 AM
Since their opening day victory over Dundee they have lost 5 and drawn 1 of their last 6 games which on the face of it seems like poor form. However they've played 5 of the current top 6 in those games. Their 4 points have come against the only teams they've played that are outside the top 6. Seems like a crazy decision to me when their next 3 games are against bottom 6 teams and a couple of wins would put them back in contention for top 6.

Big_Franck
25-09-2017, 10:23 AM
This is madness by Ross County and I hope they go down now as a result. Sacking a man that has won them a major trophy and kept them in the league with what is probably the smallest budget is very poor IMO.

They aren't even in the relegation places and they've played Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen and Hibs in their first 7 games.

Crazy decision.

The season that he arrived they had lost their opening seven league games, and by the start of February had lost 16 out of 24 - after the transfer window, his first chance to change anything, they won 10 of their last 14 games. We know that they won the league cup and finished 6th the following season, and then 7th last year. No wonder managers jump ship given half a chance.

Wouldn't be surprised if he walks right into the Falkirk job. He worked with McInnes at Bristol City too, so maybe a job at The Dons.

Diclonius

That's mental. McIntyre's been a fantastic manager for them.

They also sacked Adams who also did very well there.

It was a guess but Roy Magregor, who is almost solely responsible for County being where they are, is also pretty ruthless and doesn't mess about if he thinks a change is necessary. From the outside it seems very harsh:offski:

NAE NOOKIE
25-09-2017, 12:15 PM
It seems like a real knee jerk reaction ..... for a kick off the guy who scored nearly half their goals last season was sold and like most clubs that's a hard thing to replace. Then just look at their fixtures since the season started, they beat Dundee away on day one, but they haven't exactly been dealt an easy hand since then.

Aberdeen ( home ) lost ....... that's currently 2nd placed unbeaten in the league Aberdeen
Motherwell ( away ) lost ....... currently not exactly the easiest away fixture for any club
The Rangers ( home ) lost .... how many times in their entire league history home or away have Ross County even drawn with Sevco?
Partick Thistle ( home ) draw ... a game County would hope to win, but they didn't lose it
Celtic ( away ) lost .......... I mean c'mon !
Hibs ( home ) lost ..... a game they would hope to win at times, but Hibs are unbeaten away from home and they only lost narrowly

Yes they are only 2 points off the bottom, but they are also only 6 points from the top 6 ........ It seems a bit mental for a club whose only realistic ambitions are a top 6 finish and a cup win to be sacking the manager who has done both in the last few seasons so quickly.

I had a nice time at Ross County a few years ago and got on well with their fans ...... I hope for their sake Peter Houston isn't in the frame.

For a comparatively tiny club like County to win the League Cup was a phenomenal achievement. Sacking the guy that managed them to that success little more than a year ago is mind-boggling.

25-09-2017, 01:13 PM
Not knowing what goes on at TC behind the scenes it does seem to be a right dull yin for JMc who's arguably had them over-achieving this last few seasons. A victim of his own (relative) success.

patlowe
25-09-2017, 01:51 PM
It does seem incredibly rash but playing devil's advocate - if a manager is on a downward spiral, does keeping faith with them tend to work? I'm not so sure, barring the classic example in Manchester, but perhaps that's the exception that proves the rule. There must be some stats/research out there on this.

The logic might be that, if the situation is chronic, a new manager could come in and make a difference for those crucial fixtures they have coming up, whereas the situation with McIntyre may be so terminal that it risks dooming their season.

This isn't how I feel BTW, just trying to work out why a chairman would come to such a seemingly baffling decision.

Roy certainly isn't the soft touch that some in football seem to think he is. A very shrewd businessman with his finger firmly on the pulse. There will be more comes out in the wash, that's for sure. Just because County are a small town Highland Club, never underestimate them. As Jimmy Bone found out when he out the bullet from his job.......

They went into this in the "Why England lose" book.

You get a bounce and an improvement over the next 6 fixtures, but long-term nothing changes, if anything they normally get a bit worse.

Ah the Sauzee defence :rolleyes: as has been said already, you can't predict future events so you have no way of knowing how Ranieri would have got on given a few months longer. Leaving natural justice, loyalty and the 2015 title to one side I'd be willing to bet he'll continue to be a better manager than Craig sheakspeare. Ranieri already has Nantes fighting above their weight in ligue 1.

I'd be very surprised if they got Coyle in, he usually comes with an entourage and isnt cheap.

The one thing we have seen over the last few years is that the rangers will manipulate the media any way they want to suit whatever their agenda is at the time.

maybe this is the first steps to allow them to justify punting Pedro

I'd be astonished if Jim Traynor hadn't supplied this story. It's the standard Sevco pattern when they want to sack the manager. Suddenly everything switches from rosy Hun-friendly PR to this. They'll try and ramp up pressure on him to resign to save themselves the compo. Same thing happened with Fanny-Hat and the Fat Gardener.

Pretty much the exact same story is (coincidentally) in the Sun and as we know, Jabba has total control over the Red Tops' Hun output.

I've heard it from a few different sources now. No smoke without fire.

A few years ago Coyle practically scoffed at the idea of returning to manage in Scotland when Celtic were linked with him.

Scottish football is fine to him now though eh. Can't stand the club or him.

Hope they go down.

You get even more smoke when the fire has a big log in it as well.

Me too. Was he busy helping Bolton Wanderers, a famous club with a fine history, to the brink of extinction at the time?

Yup.

Remember hearing him being interviewed when Celtic were looking for a manger before they got Deila when he totally dismissed the idea then again just before they got Rodgers when he was practically begging for the job. Clown.

As as for Ross Co, I've never liked them. Way too many reasons to list here!

Good point. And when the Daily Record do appropriate a set of balls and run the story they now have an excellent headline ready made... 'Pedro's Log Flume Shame'.
