Uilleam 5,489 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) 'Malky' Mackay will not be the new manager of the National XI, according to BBC Sport Scotland. I wonder what devout sellikminded son of a bitch will be..... Scotland: Malky Mackay will not be full-time manager - Regan Malky Mackay is not in the running to become Scotland manager on a full-time basis, Scottish FA chief executive Stewart Regan has confirmed. Mackay is in interim charge of the national side for the friendly against Netherlands on Thursday at Pittodrie. But when asked if Mackay, the SFA's performance director, is in contention for the job, Regan told Talksport: "No, Malky and I have discussed this. "He's got a big job on his hands, he's said that himself." And Regan added: "He's been asked by the board to take charge for one game and that's what he's doing. He's very proud to lead his country." Mackay was put in charge on an interim basis after Gordon Strachan was sacked last month. Regan says there is no rush to find a replacement for Strachan, who departed despite being unbeaten in 2017 after Scotland finished third in their World Cup qualifying group. "We have got a very long list of candidates, as you can imagine for an opportunity like this," Regan added. "We don't have a competitive game until next September and therefore this is not something we need to rush into. We are going to take our time, we're going to consider the candidates and we're going to try to identify the person we believe can lead us to Euro 2020. "There isn't really a time frame on it, we will find the right person and make an appointment. "There's lots of people that have put their name in the frame - out-of-work managers and a number of managers who are already under contract. We've had a lot of interest in the job. "When we have had a chance to review that list and come up with a shortlist, then we'll decide who we are going to see."

Bill 13,717 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Ryan Jack at right back and booed by the hate brigade at Pittodrie. What is it with Aberdonians? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Jack was also applauded at times to be honest. He actually looks a good back and can read the game well. From what I have seen of McLean I am afraid I don't see a Rangers player there. He let his man go for the goal. It was offside twice though. McGregor has also not shown he was worth all the poohah to get him into the team. Where the hell did we dig up that Philips? He must be one of the worst players I have ever seen in a Scotland shirt. He will probably score now. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Toothless performance. 1-0 behind and we stand and watched the Dutch pass it around. Than god Mckay is not going to be manager. Bringing Cummings on with 4 minutes to go while he has a balloon as CF. Now I know why I don't want a Scottish manager at Rangers. Watching football like this every week would kill me. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenny3k 506 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Phillips had a poor game, but at the same time, he is more a winger than a centre forward.. He has played as a striker a few times at club level but he is primarily a winger and a solid one at that(usually ).. I agree though, Cummings should have been on much earlier and Phillips moved to his more natural wing position 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
