Burley on his way

[Dr Jimmy]

Sky sports News saying it is increasingly unlikely George Burley to remain in charge of scotland. SFA to meet in the next couple of days to discuss his future.............Gid rid now!!

[IWasThere2016]

I'd go for Levein. Arabs will be selling shortly IMHO - and this might tempt Levein to leave.

Stumbling block is his poor relationship with Gorgeous Gordon Smith

Could do a helluva lot worse. Personally though would love to see Souness get the job. Also time for Gordon Smith to go.

[iwasthere1972]

Voted for him to keep his job on a recent poll on this board but after very poor performances in the Far East and Cardiff he's got to go. There's no way that we will improve with him in charge. Smith and Peat should also be picking up their P45 as they are equally responsible for this shambles.

Anyone know how his managerial stats in the Scotland job compare to Berti Vogts?

[HIBERNIAN 1875]

Great news that Burley might be away.

My vote goes to John Collins.

[Scotthibs1875]

What about Ally Mccoist?

Even Joan Collins would have more success than Burley.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he gets the Huns job when Smith leaves or gets sacked.

[Winston Ingram]

Souness

[Elephant Stone]

Hopefully the abhorrent Smith goes with him aswell.

I think Levein should be first choice to replace Burley. Would he take it though? He's taken Dundee United from being down the bottom of the SPL to being a very respectable team, i'm not sure if he'd be overly keen to walk away.

There are appears to be constant rumours that it is not what it was with Levein and D Utd since Thompson jr took over. Therefore may be a chance of getting him. He is a top class manager and would get the team sorted.

John Collins was a good manager that wanted the players to toughen up and get as fit as possible.

It was the players attitudes that were the problem.

I'd be thrilled if he got the Scotland job.

Then he could show off that six pack of his again... and go "Right boys... This is what you're aiming for".

No. He is arrogant, self opinionated, hard as nails - exactly what we need to get stuck into the players and SFA. Should have got it ahead of Burley.

That may all be true, but he is an arse. It would be a Hun fest! You can't tell me you want that!

Not a question of him being a Hun, surely it is about getting pride restored in national team. Our national team is Scotland, not England and not Ireland. If 8 Huns playing in Scottish team and it was winning and qualifying for EC and WC would you support it?

Could you envisage a Scotland team with 8 huns which is capable of that? I'm pretty sure that most of the country is sick of underperforming OF players consistently getting in the team simply because they are OF players. It's time for a manager who would put an end to this and start playing players when they are good enough and not simply if/when they join the OF. I think Levein is possibly the man to do this.

think his point is it doesnt matter who they play club football for.

[erin go bragh]

collins is a great shout but to be honest that hun fluck smith should be emptied too[anyone else see him laughing when the camera picked him out in the stand[we were getting pumped 3 nil at the time]

[Pedantic_Hibee]

John Collins.

Scotland doesn't just need a manager, it needs someone with the skill, knowledge and foresight to take our footballing nation, root and branch, and systematically change it from top to bottom.

None of this nonsense with 8 year old laddies running about on a full-size pitch, start them properly from an early age and teach them well.

Teach them like, well, like the French.

Collins is the man for the job in my eyes. And if he doesn't get the head coach role, he should be shoe-horned into any role possible which gives him carte blanche to drag our sorry nation off it's erse and coach the kids properly.

[bingo70]

Not convinced about Levein, don't think he could be considered a great success wherever he's been, i know he's improved Utd but if he was as good as his reputation suggests he would have qualified for europe last season, it was the worst SPL i can remember and he only just managed to finish above us and we were terrible. He's also got very limited experience with european football.

I don't think there's any outstanding Scottish candidate so i'd like us to appoint a foreign coach, i know Vogts was a disaster, however that doesn't mean every foreign manager would be a failure.

[YehButNoBut]

BBC News Channel reporting that Burley will be sacked this week.

Souness would be the ideal replacement.

[Greenblood70]

Anyone but Souness...tactically he is a nightmare, he's hardly been an unqualified success everywhere he's been (don't even start quoting me Rangers 9 in a row when everyone else in the league was near enough bankrupt). I also don't think his personality is suited to the role, to concerned wi his own image rather than advancing the team imo.

[Sergey]

Ferguson for me (Darren....not Sir Alex)

Probably on a hiding to nothing, but he could start tomorrow!

[PaulSmith]

I wouldn't mind Alex Miller being the new mans number 2.

[Beefster]

The SFA are a complete shambles. They defend him earlier today and say he's under no pressure. Hours later, they seem to be about to sack him (rightly by the way).
