    For the love of god, why would we sack our manager ten days before two of the biggest games in our history?

    I don't think you're grasping the concept of a contract. Neither Lennon or Locke have been sacked.

    Lennon wasn't sacked by the way, nor was Locke. Just to clarify.

    Suggesting sacking Butcher at this point is madness. Stability is called for, both now and going forward. Let's deal with the play off and then worry about rebuilding subsequent to that.

    Because sacking him is THE only chance we have of winning.

    Because he cant get this group of players to win a match. We will go down with him in charge. With someone else, it's a gamble but at least it would give us a wee chance of winning the playoff.

    I don't know how much it would be to sack him. But if he were to walk away today I would be more than content with that.

    Can there be any stability with Butcher and Malpas here though? Currently they've shown zero stability.

    It will be anybodies guess what the team and formation will be for these 2 games, as it's been chopped and changed that many times.

    Even with them here, there's no stability.

    I don't think either were actually sacked. They are just not having their contracts renewed and that is the difference. It costs Hearts and St Mirren nothing to not offer them new contracts. If we terminate the contracts of our management team then that probably takes up a fair bit of our budget for next season.

    Is there any chance we could get another manager** in, just for the next 2 weeks, then allow Tel back to do his re-building job?









    ** Gary Locke maybe

    The rumours about Ian Murray getting the St Mirren job may be correct then?

    I mean stability as in not constantly sacking managers every 1-2 years. In the event we lose the playoff, I'll reconsider my feelings on the matter. For now, it would be absolute lunacy

    The only chance?

    What if these players finally play like the Premier League class footballers most of them have proven they are in the past?

    What if we take a couple of the chances we create?

    What if the other team is even worse than us on the day?

    What if we get lucky for a wee change and the good luck out weighs the bad of the course of the tie?

    Danny Lennon had St Mirren finish 8th this year and won them a trophy last year against all odds. Harshly treated IMO

    Agree. Feel pretty sorry for him. Not sure what else a St Mirren manager is meant to achieve really. Played some decent football as well.

    It's too late in the day for this debate. Butcher won't be sacked at this stage, he'll have the play off and will be gone should we be relegated. Of course a that stage, those demanding his head now will then be perfectly entitled to say I told you so, but that's life.

    Lennon's managerial CV is currently way more impressive than Butcher's.

    For me theres some similarities in the Danny Lennon and Pat Fenlon situations. Lennon obviously won a trophy, but St Mirren fans were crying out for him to go early on in the season like most of us were with Fenlon. St Mirren gave him to the end of the season and by the looks of things made a decision quite early as to not renew his contract once it was up.

    For me that was what we should have done with Fenlon. Gave him the end of the contract and MAYBE we might have sneaked top six or won the bottom 6 like last year. Then when he left there was something to build on in the summer for the next manager, maybe it would have been Butcher, to push on for a 3rd 4th place type of finish.
