    While there are no doubt people with more experience who could do the job, who is actually available and willing to do it?

    He's an experienced professional who has played at the highest level, he's coached the national team before and knows the score. I'm happy enough with that.
    Indeedie!

    Delighted to see that the plethora of defensive coaches for the team (3) has been reduced to 2 by this appointment. Perhaps now the undoubted qualities of Gary Mac as a midfielder might now rub off on some of our own??

    That would be a real step forward

    On another note, why have the SFA arranged an away friendly in Japan mid-season?
    Imagine how tired all the OF players will be when they return after all that travelling!
    Just another example of the SFA being OF biased!


    edit : Just had a thought.......... how many Scotland pull-outs will their be before this game?

    George Peat has been offering his thoughts on this very scenario essentially saying the number of call-offs will be polled as a vote of confidence on George Burley.

    Just read that whole article.

    Should we not be asking when Peat should be booted out and not burley?

    The man is meant to be SFA President, he sounds more like someone who has phoned into Real Radio phone in.

    Either Back Burley or don't and if you don't then surely your part of the blame considering youwere involved in his appointment as boss in the 1st place!?!

    A more eloquent version of what I thought. My reaction to that article was "The STUPID C***!!"

    McAllister's coached to a decent level, that's about the basics you need. Much more importantly, he's actually played at a high standard. It's as much a respect thing - what would the likes of Darren Fletcher and Scott Brown ever learn off Steven Pressley? They will off Gary McAllister.
