ian1964 10,413 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Nial Quinn(sp) stepped up from player to chairman at Sunderland, so it's not entirely unheard of. Uli Hoeness andKarl Heinz Rumineger at Bayern Munich are another couple who spring to mind. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenzie1 0 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I hope he doesn't accept any fast tracking and capitulate to the Lieswell cabal under the guise of 'building bridges' or, ' we have to move forward'. Alas, I think he will. I do not see this as an advancement at all, merely a steadying of the ship - at least, I hope that's what it is. I have this morbid dread that overtures will be made to bring Bain and others, back. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently the Club is competing in Division 3 of the SFL, though it is the intention of the Directors and the manager for the Club to return to top level football as soon as possible. The history, facilities and ambition of the Club are such that the Club remains a desirable destination for foreign and domestic players alike. The first team squad is managed by Ally McCoist, the former Rangers forward, who remains the Club's all-time leading goal scorer. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
