les186 271 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 (edited) I don't think the plan is really to give Murty to the end of the season. I think they are hoping that he is our permanent manager. Only if he is a total disaster will he not be manager next season. Taking all that time to decide to go for McInnes suggests that our board has no clue who else to go for or afford and Murty could be a good cheap choice.

If he is doing well, getting results and the team are playing for him, and each other, then why not? Seems perfectly logical, only time will tell though? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
917 191 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Jimmy Nicholl actually has a great record as a number 2 at Aberdeen & NI, which is why he has got the job. Nothing to do with how many verses of the sash he knows. Older posters might recall he had a decent record as number 1 at Raith Rovers as well.. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boabie 230 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Older posters might recall he had a decent record as number 1 at Raith Rovers as well.. A 1994 Scottish Cup final win against the manks at Ibrox being top of the list. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
917 191 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Also won the ‘championship’ with them & had them beating Bayern Munich in the UEFA Cup in Germany. At half time.. he must be a fair age now though! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMc 2,473 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 No doubt that JN will get paid more with Rangers than with Falkirk also he prefers the club. But he could be here for only 5 months, any new manager will bring in his own assistant. To be fair he could get sacked at Falkirk before the season ends the way they're playing. Jimmy Nicholl won't get too many more opportunities to work at Rangers, no way would he turn that down. He's in his early 60s, still plenty of miles left in the clock. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

les186 271 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I think O'Neil is contracted to 2020 and has been offered a 4 year extension taking him to 2024 and at an increased wage. So it would cost a fair bit of compensation to get the former Brechin City and Shamrock Rovers manager. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
