Poll: MGhee

I'm getting pretty fed up with the clamour for McGhee.

 

I don't know much about his tenures at Reading or Leicester other than he started at Reading 17 years ago.

Surely enough time to prove himself IF he was genuinely any good.

 

At Wolves he couldn't spend Haywards millions well enough to even get into the Premiership let alone the first place those millions should have guaranteed him. Hayward was offering an unlimited budget to buy a whole new team if he had won promotion. Talk about motivation for the manager!!! Ultimately got the sack for not achieving targets.

 

After TWO years without work he joined Millwall and did what Jenny Kackett nearly did this season. Got a good Millwall team promoted. His best players got sold (sound familiar) and he walked.

 

Then he went to Brighton, probably the only genuine success in his career, Leon Knight scoring a shed load in his first season away from Chelsea, almost replacing the irreplaceable Zamora. Couldn't turn round Brightons fortunes without the Coppell inspired Zamora despite spending a LOT more and was sacked in his third season.

 

Motherwell, well I'm sure you can all tell me more about that tenure. One, out of the ordinary season, after another season on the scrapheap. Then back to mediocre bottom six performances.

I've heard Stalin is free. Might be of interest.  ::)

 

One way of getting rid of the 'Easy Life' our players have ;)

The stalin joke wasn't even funny

The Poll for McGhee is almost 50/50.  What exactly has McGhee shown at his previous clubs that makes over 50% of the voters want him as manager?  Arguably, he did better work down south than he's done at Motherwell but, really he's not done a great job anywhere he's been.  Can anyone see McGhee improving on what JC achieved?  I, for one, cannot!  Think we need to forget about McGhee.

I've already posted that the upside of bringing Jengus in is that he can bring some of Murdiewell's best talents with him Smith (bit of a cock, but a challenge for Clangers), Quinn, Hughes and if we're to belive the tranfer budget is about 1.5 mill, Clarkson. His CV though is the downside and makes for poor reading. He'll also head for the Tattie Bowl at the drop of a hat, should he be appointed and do well.

 

Black on the other hand made a good fist of it at said Murdiewell before they called in the administrators and he headed off to Coventry or somewhere equally anonymous where he's obviously done well and will have benefitted from seeking out new talent for the Premiership.  :wave:Even if he's not found anyone good enough for a league that's the best on the world right now, he's surely seen players like Aluko who would be great for the SPL.

 

Let's all agree to get behind the Manager this time around (unless it's the moaning fucker from Killie!). Whether the replacement for JC will fare better remains to be seen.

Oooooyaaaaa Nasty!  Nastier than Jim Jeffries at 'Todders.......well, maybe not quite.

There was no need for calling me a cunt I don't know you, but I'm going to find you and headbutt you into submission.

Now now, no need for threats about physical violence.

John Merrick!

Speaking of violence, a good money spinner for AFC would be for all the candidates to duke it out in a ring in the centre circle at Todders. Tenner a ticket. Winner gets the job and can keep the money raised from the fight to buy players!!!!    :thumbsup:

I've still not heard a good thought as to why mcghee should get this job, it seems to be a sentimental thing because he's not exactly had a glittering career as a manager.

 

What are your thoughts.

I agree, I dont want McGhee to ge tthe job either as IMO he wont take us any further from where JC got us to, he has just as shit a record in cups against "weaker sides" and does not fill me with great delight at the thought of him coming in.

 

One of my mates is a Motherwell fan and he was saying that he would be glad to see the back of McGhee as he was fed up watching shite

 

Sound familiar ?

My thoughts are the same.  I can't see what he's going to give us really.  The problem I've got is that I can't see who we are going to attract to the club that is going to take us forward.  All the names that have been touted about that are realistic don't exactly give me a warm fuzzy feeling.

I dont know now I am going to not vote !

but will back whatever manager to the hilt . :thumbsup:

 

 

cue fatjim to fix my english  ;D

 

 

What's Peter Reid (wi the f^&kin Monkeys heid) up to these days?  He'd gee the lads up!

He's as good a shout as anyone else for the job.

for what reason dave_man.  You seem to be a Mcghee fanboi so why do you want him as our new boss. what about the other managers that haven't even been mentioned.

He's as bad a shout as anyone else for the job.  

I really hope that AFC pull someone out of the bag, a real catch but, I bet the short list is pretty grim.

Manages the Thailand national team, probably wouldn't fancy the step down...

Sence when? I've said in numerious posts on more than one forum that I don't think Calderwood should be sacked, then when he was sacked i've criticised the decision. But as there's no point dwelling on the past i've moved on and started looking to the future.

 

Of all the names mentioned McGhee is up there in the 'Not bad' category, not one (realistic) name that's been mentioned has filled me with any hope that they'd actually be any better than Calderwood,  so unless the board pull somebody amazing from a magic hat McGhee seems a safe enough bet to run our club.

 

Regardless of who does get appointed, they'll get my full support from day one until they are hounded out by a small minority of idiots within our support*

 

*does not include Jim Jefferies

Oh, is this Adam? All is forgiven. Keep posting.

I only read this forum dave_man, which ones do you read, you just sound like a Mcghee fanboi.  Boothroyd is where it's at.

I read them all, only really post here though.

 

And as for being a 'McGhee fanboi' please feel free to quote anything where i've said something remotly pro-McGhee?

I'm stuck offshore with limited acces to t'internet.  Is McGhee a shoe-in now?
