Is there a reason no-one is mentioning Steve Clarke? No doubt he’ll leave Scotland after the World Cup. Knows Scottish football…

Is he not on record saying Kilmarnock would be his only club job in Scotland.

I think he only took it to be closer to his parents at that time.

Very interesting CV 2bf but I can't help but feel he's not going to want to walk out on a club he seems to be doing weel with after only 3 months in charge.

True, but same then probably applies to Askou.

Maybe adding two and two together and coming up with five, but O'Neill at Celtic until the summer, Clarke with Scotland until the summer

I find it interesting reading names of foreign coaches who may know lutz but may never ever have been to Scotland. Knowledge and most likely experience of the Scottish game sounded like a prerequisite, no??

That’s exactly what he said in his interview, along with stuff about the new manager having a bit of passion & fire in the belly (i.e. not Thelin).

So on that basis half the folk being mentioned won’t qualify.

Askou does qualify though…

Clarke has been very clear in the past he doesn’t want to manage either arse cheek.

Basically said he got out of Scotland to get him and his family away from all that bigotry crap.

Just can’t see him going near either of them. He doesn’t need the money or the hassle.

Not sure he said Killie was the only job he’d take up here, it was more he wouldn’t take an ugly sister job.

Should be a candidate as he’s done very well in our league, but is his style of football aligned to the style we say we want to play?

I’m not so sure…

Clarke is a no go, he will retire once we win the world cup in the summer

Well if all of that is true and no reason to doubt you, then it kind of proves my arithmetic is crap

Clarke'll probably have to go into hiding after we promise Trump we'll let USA win in the final and then scud them 6-0

Rosler ruling himself out according to The Retard this evening

I can't get too excited now knowing that the guy making the decision was put in place by a consultancy we got in that he worked with previously. 

He'll no doubt copy some blueprint that removes all creativity and drums up predictable mediocrity and a safe but dull appointment. 

Or am I being harsh on consultants assuming they act in football like they do everywhere else.
