Likely, although Lutz did make a thing about a strong Scottish presence throughout the club so you never know. Might also depend on doc’s ambitions as a manager in his own right.

Can’t do any harm. Wonder if he’s going to be part of the new team as well?

It isn’t that these allegedly non shambolic clubs have replacements ready to go whenever they sack a manager, it’s that they’ve decided to sack the manager weeks before they actually do so and they spend the time organising the replacement. We’ve obviously sacked Jimmy sooner than intended so the replacements weren’t quite at the “sign here please” stage. I still contend that that doesn’t make us a shambles in any kind of way. If anything, it suggests there’s an old-school honour in how we deal with senior people.

Sums it up well. And no, as a fanbase we'd give McGlynn even less time to build a squad than we have given any other manager recently. I don't imagine that collectively we're much different to most other groups of fans - a winning team on the pitch is really the only thing that keeps us happy. Otherwise no-one's getting any time to do anything before the support turns on them.

What is it then?

That was not a good Super Bowl, certainly for the casual viewer but that first half was pretty awful for everyone. Best team won and proved, yet again, that defense more often than not wins championships.

We're not a joke of a club by any realistic assessment. Fans are frustrated at the length of time it's taking to get the right coach - even though we were told at the outset it could take up to six months - and because we got pumped in our last game the feelings are magnified. It'll be fine.

I’d be reluctant to believe anything in the media as we’ve become very good at keeping our business secret over the last few years. Frustrating for us as fans but not a bad thing really.

It’s time football became a summer sport in Scotland.

Heard a rumour it could be this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eirik_Horneland

All joking aside, there's an argument that a game tonight might've been beneficial for our new signings before the much more important cup tie on Saturday. So now I guess we're genuinely hoping that one's off as well.

Something's gone pretty badly wrong if a Saturday game is on doubt on the Wednesday afternoon, especially with the pitch not having been played on for 11 days.
