    Craig Brown. Not exciting but would get team organised.

    Could be a decent choice for just now, maybe not long term though

    Don't really know but not Tony Mowbray or Chris Coleman , we need someone who can instill a real team spirit at ER.

    Too right, Pa Broon! The guy, I think,is exactly what we need. Think of all his experinance. He may not be the most dynamic out there but he knows how to organise a team!

    who the other is, is the question imo,
    Knowing Hibs Gus McPherson would be a the choice as he would be free so to speak.

    but someone who defo has no ties to Hibs, can train a team to play and be fit. not a lot to ask......is it?

    What Brown would do is look at the playing staff available and then get them to play to their strengths, starting with a basic concept of being hard to beat. Not have an idea of how the game should be played and then fake about for players who may or may not be able to do it. Last season when we were on fire we were fantastic, but when the wheels came off and plan a was not working, we then found out that plan b was to plug away with plan a even though it is not working.

    Don't know really. Voted other. Brown seems a decent shout. Always respected him as Scotland manager when I was wee. Feel he still has something to offer football. Not liked anhy of the Scotland managers much since (I liked Smith and McLeish, but lost all respect for them when they jumped at the first opportunity to manage a club).

    You don't half haver. If we're living in fantasy-ville, I think I'd have O'Neill first then, failing that, McInnes.

    For me, on terra firma, Paw Broon would be my choice.

    I think Billy Brown would be worth a punt.

    That fat ugly bafoon that grunts cannot be the tactical genius over there.

    I remember a Jambo I used to work with when I lived in Edinburgh said Fat Jim was the motivator BB planned the training tactics and organisation.

    Explain...It was clearly a fantasy the O'Neill comment but i think McInnes would be worth one...For now i'll stand by hughes

    Interesting that so many want Pa Broon, yet so few seem to want Calderwood, because I believe they both would give us the same thing, namely organisation. Apart from one Cup Tie replay at Easter Road, we always seemed to find the way Aberdeen were set up under Calderwood very difficult to beat. I'm not saying he would be my number one choice, but I would certainly take an organiser like Calderwood before a few names mentioned on this thread, Craig Brown has done very well with the squad at his disposal, McInnes looks a prospect but carried a wee bit luck last season, just like our current incumbent, will be intresting to see how he fares after a poor start this time round for St. Johnstone. McPherson, please god no, Coleman your having a laugh. At present we appear to be football equivalent of headless chickens, we have got to get someone in who first and foremost can make us more difficult to score against, the flair stuff can come later, or we are going to in serious doo doo. Hughes time is over, everyone knows it, the wheel is still turning but the hamster died months ago.

He it would also get right up celtic...For the first time in our lives we've really-Kind of- stole him from them instead of the other way..

    Im not sure we were ever on fire mate. We were pretty lucky at the beginning of last season, apart from the game against Motherwell and perhaps a handful of other games did we play anywhere near to our potential imho????

    As much as his post match interviews sent me to sleep, I'd go for someone who'd steady the ship, use tactics effectively and as a bonus, want to get one over Romanov.......Csaba Laszlo gets my vote! Controversial I know but he done extremely well over the road considering!

    Gordon Strachan will, I'm sure, be universally accepted by all netters.

    He always said he'd like to be Hibs manager one day and the way things are going for him at Boro', he could be available very shortly.

    The ex-Championship managers being mentioned are unrealistic,
    both in terms of what we'll pay and who we can attract.
    It's funny that lots of people are raving about Brown,
    cos I'd guarantee if we'd appointed him two years ago there
    would have been uproar and outrage on here about a lack of ambition.
    I merely hope our board show the same balls and vision as Motherwell's to think
    outside the box a wee bit.

    None of the above.
