I often see him in the Ferry Road Morrisons. Milk sales in Dingwall are about to go through the roof. I’ve never seen so much variety of milk types as well as quantity in one person’s trolley. It shouldn’t be a surprise, though, that he likes the white stuff :wink:

Without knowing any details of project brave, seems to me like there’s been an increase in the number of really good Scottish youngsters breaking through in the last few years. There’s also been quite a few joining some of the top clubs in Europe with a couple at Bayern I think?
If not directly associated with project brave, could any of this improvement be associated to the job he’s done? I’m sure project brave wasn’t his only responsibility during his time at the SFA?

The performance schools were around before him. They were the idea of Mark Wotte, based on the recommendations from the Mcleish report back in 2010. There is no doubt that giving kids an extra 9 hrs of football a week will improve them, and we are seeing that more in the last few years. Brave was much more about reorganising pro youth football across scotland and imo its been the biggest white elephant from the SFA yet! Project Brave has realised the square root of nowt, so much so that they have just announced yet another report which also appears to propose absolutely nothing of substance. He's done nothing since Cardiff.

I’ve had dinner with him, know people who know him very well and have worked with him a lot. I respect them and they trust and respect him..He’s a guy , got caught making hateful comments..learned a lot from it ..I’ve no doubt about that ....

He just got a pay off from his previous club, Boro was it? He didn’t play for free, he’d just had his wages paid in advance from his previous club.
Regardless, not really the point, he could have scored a hat trick in the final and played his whole career for free for Hibs, I still think he comes across as a fanny now when I hear him talking.

I never really bought the whole played for free thing.
He just got a pay off from his previous club, Boro was it? He didn’t play for free, he’d just had his wages paid in advance from his previous club.
Regardless, not really the point, he could have scored a hat trick in the final and played his whole career for free for Hibs, I still think he comes across as a fanny now when I hear him talking. I don’t know the man, he might be a great guy, I’m just making a judgement based purely on hearing him talk about football on TV and from what I see on social media.
If he signed for any other club he would have got a wage, payoff or not. He played for us for free and has my up most respect in doing so.

They’re going to struggle for someone decent now. They’ve got 2 very tough CL qualifiers before the league gets going and are going to need to bring in something like 10 first team players. There’s a good chance of getting a doing in Europe and then the manager will already be under extreme pressure

I think they’ll go for that former Dortmund manager, Lucien Favre.
The Australian boy that’s currently favourite seems a bit unlikely. I like the sound of him but too big a gamble for where Celtic are at just now, wouldn’t really tick any boxes for them I don’t think, surprised he’s favourite.

The link is down to the director of football Celtic are getting in. One of his jobs at Man City was to oversee the sort of network of clubs the Man City owners had, the Australian/Greek boy was manager of Melbourne City who are part of that group, his current team in Japan might be as well but I may have read that wrong.

No idea if Ange will get the Celtic job, or if he'll do well if he does, but having seen his teams play here in Oz, I'd have loved him to get the Hibs job the last couple of times we've been looking. His Brisbane team were a joy to watch - Barca on a budget :greengrin . He's had success at a couple of A league clubs and managed the national team. No idea how he's got on since he left Australia though.
The criticism that could be levelled at him would be similar to Hughes and Stubbs Hibs teams - lovely passing and movement, lots of possession, but sometimes a lack of cutting edge - think Falkirk semi-final. With a budget that would allow him strikers and creative midfielders of the type Celtic can sign compared to the rest of the SPL, I doubt that would be an issue for them.

He will have to quarantine for 2 weeks too. Crazy situation for Celtic to get into it.

Can't for the life of me understand why they are bringing in somebody with no knowledge whatsoever of football here.
I know it's unfashionable and would be met with fury but I would get Callum Davidson if I was them.
He definitely has something about him.

I think after what happened with Howe they feel under pressure to go for someone either left field or a big name. A big name would cost a lot more money than this guy. (Yes I know his name is also big)
FWIW I think he sounds decent for a Hibs/Hearts/Aberdeen, Im quite jealous in some ways but I’m not sure he’s a sensible appointment for where Celtic are at just now.

I heard somewhere that Rangers chose Caixinha over him when they appointed him.

We have a good, young manager who deserves time. I hope he gets it.
The one thing we know this new Celtic guy won't be getting is time.

Aye, if we keep progressing and use last season as foundations for a successful team going forward you won’t find me complaining.
If we don’t then I hope we go for a mad foreigner who most of us haven’t heard of and plays an attacking high tempo and high energy style of football.

He was there with McCann until the end of the season, so maybe they thought he did a good job
Gets him off Sportsound as well

McCann has got a job with some agency called Stormsportsx.
Saw him got a mention from Dikes the other day, was doing a training session for him!
Presume he’s doing this with combining his TV work

Surprised his enormous ego didn't mean he would try being coach thought he would have stayed on at Inverness. Not sure about Dodds big difference being number two to top man don't think he is the sharpest tool in the box.

Speculation earlier today was that if Carlo Ancelloti was going to Real Madrid,Eddie Howe was in the line for the Everton job.
If this become fact,how could you. Eddie.How could you fillet up one of the “greates clubs in the world” like an absolute kipper.Doubt he’ll have any trouble convincing his coaching staff to come to Liverpool.
Pantomine season started early this year.

From what I've read Eddie gets a nose bleed if he goes north of Watford, so can't see that ending well.

According to report I read earlier today,Eddie Howe was the bookies favourite to take over at Everton.
He claims they were his boyhood heroes.
Last I saw Jonathan Woodgate is still manager at Bournemouth.)

Don't think Levein will get another managers job anywhere so unless the Queen can sneak him back in through the back door to assist her then we will all be giving Sportsound a miss for a while yet

Is Tom Courts no longer a candidate for the Dundee United job.
If they’re even considering Levein makes you wonder what sort of gash the other candidates are.

Celtic having an absolute howler this last year.
Wonder who their back up plan for this role is and I wonder if it’ll effect their move for the Greek/Australian boy as he was Harkins man.

I didn't see that one coming; it must have all happened quickly. You can't blame him for jumping at another chance at Real Madrid, but it's back to square one for Everton. They pulled of a coup with Ancelotti and should think big again: go for Conte.

There will be, their home form was pretty poor under him and my blue mates were forever criticising his team selections, they thought originally he was the one to lead them back into the glory years, 10th place was very poor considering their start.
