Emery had a decent first season but he was woeful after that. Was nothing surprising about him getting punted. He never had them playing at the level Arteta has this season.

He's a good manager, though, done well elsewhere, far better than Gerrard ever will be.

My money is on Roberto Martinez replacing him after the World Cup.

He's a good manager, though, done well elsewhere, far better than Gerrard ever will be. I think Gerrard dropped lucky getting the Rangers job. Honestly can't see him being successful anywhere else. Well, maybe Celtic where you don't have to be a good manager. Being able to sign better players makes you look good.

He was due a return to club management, he will do alright there, they need investment in January tho because of all the injuries.

Michael Beale deserves a lot of credit then because he did an outstanding job at Sevco. To stop 10 in a row, win silverware and regain respectability in Europe was no mean feat.

Aye agree he's a dead man walking there now , I think Gerard's inflated ego of himself would probably decide for him to take the job if he was offered it which would be no bad thing as it looked like Beale was the brains behind everything anyhow . Betfair were giving odds on what year GVB would leave Huns 2022=4/1..2023=4/7 and 2024 or later =9/4 . Wouldn't imagine they are giving 4/1 now though ?

[HoboHarry]

Gerrard won't come back knowing there is no budget, or t least he'd be daft if he did. They will struggle badly to attract a top class manager. The zombie fans will be expecting Pottechino or equal.

Speaking to a Bonnyrigg Rose supporter who told me that Robbie Horne’s coat is on a very shuggly nail.

If results go against the Rosy Posy this weekend they could end up bottom of League 2.

The mutter in the gutter is that as Horne is going out the exit door,Gary Naysmith is coming in the entrance.

Surprised that James McDonaugh is never mentioned as a possible managerial candidate at this level.Thought he did a good job at Edinburgh City in building the foundations that enabled them to move forward.

Not sure whether he has a current post in football,but he may be happy where he is and doesn’t want the hassles of the manager / head coaches job.

They certainly made some serious errors in there time from Whelan's era up to now ,think Whelan was there 20 years or so and also seem to recall he was charged by the FA. for some sort of racist remarks anyhow giving a manager a 3 deal and sacking him to weeks later seems to be a strange decision and doesn't look good on the people running Wigan football club

Coming up to the January window, do you let a manager who they want rid of spend the money or do they spend a chunk of it getting rid so the new man has even less to spend with the possibility of spending even more of it on compo for the new boss?

I agree. His negative comments on ability to compete in europe compared with others was the beginning of the end. And then the league form dipped again too.

Hopefully this all results in some sort of continuing disarray by the time we go there for the first game after the break.

[Wheat Hound]

Hope their new managers first game goes the same way as GVB's (the first game after he was announced anyway).

[GreenCastle]

Huns have more issues than new manager as need to bring in new players as several out of contract.

Not sure if SG will return - again Beale was the brains and you saw what happened when he left SG alone at Villa!

SG needs to be careful with his next job though to get credit in the bank as manager.

Agree with others Gio seemed a decent bloke - maybe why they didn’t take to him!

Dyche would be an interesting one. Obviously did a good job at Burnley for a number of years. But totally different demands would be on him at Rangers. If he won 1 in ever 3 or 4 at Burnley everyone was happy. Any defeat or draw up here would be treated like a disaster.

[Donegal Hibby]

I don't think Michael Beale's conduct hasn't been great on supposedly getting the rangers job , firstly = he turns down wolves and states it wouldn't be right of him to leave QPR when he's asking others to stay . Secondly= he turns up at Ibrox for a game when GVB is under pressure, afterwards he declares his love for rangers and states it's like home to him.Didnt really show much respect to a fellow manager imo , look's like he was already lined up before GVB was away which would suggest to me there was a bit of back stabbing going on . Not nice on GVB or QPR if this is the case but then again nothing really surprises me with that mob anymore.

I also think it's a very bad time possibly to go to rangers as I feel Celtic are away ahead of them squad wise and would doubt he will get a massive budget either which I think they would need to catch Celtic now. Would have thought the wolves job or staying at QPR would have been the wiser choices

Michael Beale has said sorry to the QPR fans - but insisted he was being honest with them at the time when he turned down the wolves job when he stated " Integrity is a real big thing for me and loyalty , you don't give it to receive it back , but if those are the things you live by then at times when you are put in a position you have to be strong and stand by them. 🤔 . He has also came out and said that he wanted to support Rangers and Gio at his visit at Aberdeen game , not undermine him . To me he knew GVB was trying to save his job and by attending he broke a unwritten rule of football management , he was accompanied by his QPR coach 'Harry Watling " who has joined him at Rangers . He has stated his love for Rangers and his plans for winning a 56 title ( sorry to tell you old Ranger's died 😁) . I didn't actually mind GVB thought he was a decent enough guy but this one talks so much s***e and imo hasn't conducted himself well at all that I've taken a total dislike to him , wonder what the rest of you think about him?

Sevco, along with Celtic, hugely and negatively impact Hibs. They are the love children of the Scottish game and there is a wide spread belief that the Scottish game wouldn't survive without them. Everything that happens in Scottish football is geared towards that pair moving forward at the expense of every other club. Hell mend them both.

Arnie has his detractors, but there is no doubt he galvanised a team of lesser known players into a formidable side in the World Cup finals.

He obviously has an appreciation of the value of the Scottish game, given the number of players in the squad with SPFL connections.

He was. Well he spoke to the media saying he wanted the job (or his agent did, it made the evening news)

Before LJ was appointed, he was my left field choice. Was probably unrealistic with the World Cup coming up and probably less realistic now after his success in this World Cup but I think he would have been a good appointment. Knows Scottish football well as he spoke about it on a podcast I listened to.

I think he could just about survive a derby defeat. But a heavy derby defeat and he’s done IMO. I don’t think any manager could really complain about losing a job when the run is in to the territory that he’s in now.

Respectfully disagree. Done OK at Wigan, Everton fans think hes awful, considering the players he had at Belgium they should have at the least played better football, arguably won something. Hes a severely overrated manager because of a decent spell at Wigan.

Everton finished 5th with 72 points under him. Clearly struggled after that a bit, but never awful.

Done well with Wigan. They've came nowhere near the things he achieved since.

Belgium might've won something with a different manager, but the one before Martinez certainly wasn't doing better than he did.

He definitely doesn’t travel with the team trust me 👍

At the last home game against them he parked his car behind the West Stand then sauntered across to the main entrance. The team bus was nowhere on sight.
I thought that a little odd at the time.

Or maybe they are all delighted that they don't have to look at his sourpuss face back and forth from Aberdeen 😂

He maybe suffers from travel sickness.

I would have thought most managers would have travelled with the team and would be surprised if Goodwin didn't as well though he always came across as a arrogant type of character. Don't really think any of the names here are that great to takeover from him either but that's just my opinion though .

I’d have thought Callum Davidson would be in the frame for both Dons and Hibs jobs. Is there something I don’t know ?

Yes, he's won 26 league games out of 96. Dreadful manager.

Think since they lost mccart , kerr , Rooney and the boy in midfield who's name I can't remember 🤔 , they haven't been good and his stock mighten be as high as it was .

Ally McCann there is no doubt he has lost his best players after the double winnng season.

Keeps St Johnston is the SPL and is a double cup winning manager - he is brilliant. The lack of respect football supporters show to the high achievers is really poor. He has had a fantastic career both as a player and a manager. No wonder players and managers think so little of the keyboard warriors.

Mate, your opinion is worth no more or less than mine, so you can ram the keyboard warrior patter.

He had a good first season, aided by levels of luck in tight games that will never be seen again.

Relegation playoff a year later. Currently on a dreadful run. Keeping st Johnstone up really isn't some big achievement in this league. If he is so brilliant, why has no one come in for him like they did McInnes and even Lomas?

[JimBHibees]

The reason he doesn’t have long ‘with the boys’ before a game is because he never travels with the team - makes his own way to games. I found that astonishing when I heard it.

Is that every game? Would have thought he may bring his car to games for example if his family is down central belt and he goes home to see them however not every game you wouldn't have thought seems a little odd and exposes his other staff members if they are in the bus.

Firstly you have called the league by the wrong name, secondly I don't think many St Johnstone fans (who watch every week) would agree with your assessment.

Lampard must get emptied soon surely??

Wondering if Everton have the money to sack him?
Also wondering who would take the job at this moment.

Sam allardyce would 😂

Should have replaced him in the summer, he obviously wasn't the right man for the job. Give it to Dyche and roll the dice one last time I reckon.
