There has been some media talk about this. Mc Stay has managed at Sligo Rovers (where he won domestic honours) and Ujpest Doza (Hungary). He has spent 15 years in between coaching Celtic reserves and youth teams. McParland has extensive coaching experience (Notts Forest, Ipswich) and managed Notts County for two years.

Not sure as to the link between the two?

Both McParland and Mcstay are friends. I do know they have both applied separately for the job.

Time will tell and may be wrong, just passing on information.

For what its worth i would prefer Steve Clarke.

See post 270.

McParland also co-managed Forest with Franks Barlow for a time in 2006. Went on a near record run of six straight wins.

Says he is interested and has a proven track record of working with youngsters. Could be a good appointment

Williamson brought through Riordan,Brown,Thompson,O`Conner and Whittaker. If bringing on young players is the only criteria for the job, maybe we should ask him to give up on Uganda and come back.....!!!! :rolleyes: Paul Harts managerial record in England is abysmal and that should be the only consideration.

Do you have a list of those who definitely have applied?

He said: "As soon as he walked through the door at Barnsley he got the utmost respect of all the players.

"He's a really strict manager but a nice guy as well. He had an unlucky time at Barnsley but I really rate him."

If he sez so it`s a done deal then.....wait a minute..who the **** is Scott Flinders?..!!!!!

Thoughts?

Interesting to note that when McStay managed in Hungary, he was assisted by our very own Joe McBride....oh no, not another ex-player connection?!

I'm sure we're the only team he's wanted to manage, Mrs Johnston.

He used to spend a lot of time in Edinburgh when at Rangers, as he was not welcome in Glasgow.

Also was an ex Hearts player.

I'd say there are 2 chances none & no effin. :greengrin

Saw the thread title and the opportunity to post these exact words.
If yer no fast yer last and aw that ! :grr:
:greengrin
He'd maybe not be too bad a shout, he's done well over in the states. But I think he'd be mental to uproot and come back home for our job.

Not had time to read through the whole of this thread, but just in case, the Evening News today is giving Kevin McDonald a mention as a possible choice.

Saw this reported elsewhere. No danger we'll pay Villa the required compo for a reserve/youth team coach from the Premiership, so a non-starter unless he walks or is allowed to walk having been overlooked for the top job.

My thoughts too, still he'd be quite a good choice if it were to happen. He seems to focus on young upcoming players. But as you say, money would be a big problem in this case.

:agree: MacDonald for me, good record with youth; good knowledge of up and coming players from premiership- dont know if compensation would come into it though- will he not be an employee of club(salaried) and not on a contract like main managers?

No way to Mo Johnstone. He is gash as a Manager and evaluator of talent. He was in charge of Toronto FC for 3 seasons and our support is the best in the MLS but the team is rubbish.

think you will find that a certain frank sauzee gave deeks his debut:wink:

Still think that Stevie Nicol would be a good shout...

Don't know why, it just seems that any random manager seems to be getting touted.

I've got a wee sneaky feeling that Billy Reid is one of the front runners and he could well end up as our new Ayatollah.

John Robertson - No not the fat Yam...

The boy who was number 2 to Martin O'Neill (I think), surprised his interest has not been noted. No source or anything but I have a sneaky feeling he could be in with a very good shout.:agree:

One of my mates mentioned this too me the other day, he had no evidence, so he might have been pulling my leg, not sure:grr:

While Williamson certainly gave them their debut's he had little to do with their development. Lest we forget the Blobmeister tried to swap Riordan and Whittaker to ICT in return for Bobby Mann. An eye for a bargain displayed by Blobby.

He won't be back at Hibs. And who can blame him.

lets just keep the good memories of jc as a legend on the field and bringing the cis cup home.

How much influence does the manager even have over the Youth Teams? As far as I can tell only once they graduate from the under 19s.

So I don't think all the credit for Deeks, Brown, O'Connor and the rest should be laid solely at any managers door, there's the managers that gave them their debut's sure, but it's the coaches that worked with them for years prior to that that deserve the majority of that credit if you ask me.

Not a rumour, but what about Paul Dickov? He has the lowest budget in the 1st division and has brought up Oldham to 5th. I've no bias but he learnt his football off my gable end.:thumbsup:

If he DID get the job, I would remind him off what he called me every time I complained and would expect compo tickets every game. Yes Paul Dickov for the job and I'll change my user name to what he used to called me .... Mrs Mangell
