I might be totally making this up, but was he not linked with the Hibs job at some point? Rumoured to actually have spoken to us I think.Quote:

Maybe posted elsewhere but Michael ONeill bask as Norn Ireland boss

Just came on to this thread to post the same thing.Quote:

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.Quote:

Of course there’s still a chance we could win the derby, if he does that he’ll get the January transfer window to improve things.
Aberdeen have home matches v Ross County and St Johnstone before LC semi on 14th / 15th so if league results go badly for them , defeat in semi will put a lot of pressure on Goodwin . If we get rid of LJ in January , I hope we have a caretaker manager till summer and go for a special appointment for next season .Quote:

No, he's actually a decent manager, still young, who will get more out of those talented Portuguese players than Santos did.Quote:

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.Quote:

Belgium might've won something with a different manager, but the one before Martinez certainly wasn't doing better than he did.
Livingston have appointed Christophe Berra as Bartley's replacement .
Another reason to hate Livingston :greengrinQuote:

No chance Klopp gets sacked. Many people at Liverpool should be shown the door way before Klopp! Been let down massively from the owners. So obvious the squad needs invested in.Quote:

What was the severence clause he reportedly wanted from us? 9 months or thereabouts I think, which is seemingly a lot more than usual. If he's got something like that then maybe it affected the owner's thinking.Quote:

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.Quote:

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?
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.Quote:
