maineflyer 0 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Let's take the positive view in that hopefully it is so we can tie up a few transfers/contracts behind the scenes... I could have come up with other preferences for manager but on the whole I actually am positive about the appointment. I think change always offers up the opportunity to be positive, it just doesn't always turn out the way we'd hoped. Nevertheless, in general, change is good. If this was always going to be the outcome I'd rather they appointed McCoist to take over 1st January. As for attracting new players, there's the small matter of funds but I think we've more chance of attracting new blood after the announcement than before it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did the same with Advocaat around the same time in Smith's final season during 1997/98... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
