craig 5,199 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 WS is taking MUCH more of a back seat than most managers... How do you work that out ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I think the truth is that Ally McCoist will never be a manager. By "truth" you mean your gut instinct - no more than supposition at this stage, right ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WS had the same approach first time around. AM isnt making ANY of the decisions from the touchline. Some managers prefer to be on the touchline but WS has favoured the stands for a long time, as far as I am aware. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 You get a far better overall picture from the stands and many managers sit there these day's. They always have intercom contact with the dugout. Ally McCoist is a far better player motivator than walter so with him on the line and Walter in the stands it should be a winning team. That is if Walter had a clue what was happening. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Ive always wondered why more managers dont sit in the stands coz you get a far better view. When on the touchlone its quite difficult to follow certain things. My mate has a season ticket in the 2nd row of the East Enclosure and the last few times ive been over I sat with him in there and following the game compared to higher up is a nightmare - the 12 cans of lager before the game makes it a tad more difficult aswell mind you!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I think the truth is that Ally McCoist will never be a manager. I don't think Ally would have given up his media work, just to be assistant manager. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I don't think Ally would have given up his media work, just to be assistant manager. I think Rangers assistant he would have!! Especially with the CHANCE of becoming boss 1 day. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Perhaps, but a promise by the chairman would be an even bigger incentive. We'll find out soon enough. I don't want it myself, can still remember JG, it was painful to watch. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Shroomz, numerous managers do this. Think Allardyce at Bolton for example. He was one of the first I remember doing it regularly. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
