Sorry for the duplication, Dorset. You must have got your post up while I was typing. I must learn to type faster.
The St Mirren manager according to some bloke from Sky. He'll get 5 times what he earns at St Mirren and will only cost £50K compo.
Has this club ever had an owner who moves along at this speed ! Growing grass doesn't stand a chance with Donald. I'll plump for the Sheffield Utd guy.

If it is this fella, who I admit I know literally **** all about, it does appear we’ve done well to get him and had competition for him. Ipswich is a decent championship club so it shows we are still a draw, being a shark in a fish tank in this league.
Sadly they will never go away mate, I’m sure every club has them but we have them in buckets. The kind of people who complain that it’s too hot in summer.
Aye the north east has their fair share of them generally doesn't it!! all of the idiots will likely be "Oh - A managerial appointment I've never hear of so can pass absolutely no comment on as I can't form an opinion - so he must be ****e" The 2 year deal with a performance based 3rd year is a very good plan - wonder what the conditions are - promotion this year followed by consolidation next year I would envisage. I can see nothing but positive from this as it's happening quickly so they'#re not messing about at the club.
We are league 1 who've getting a league 1 class manager. What else is there to be expected. Hopefully he'll suprise everyone and do a good job.
His equivalent experience is League 1 level. He might be a class or 2 above that though but wont know until he's been given a chance . Sounds like we're going to find out what
Glad it's been done so quickly and I wish him every success and hope he's better at being a manager than our last Scottish manager Mr Moyes. Mind he'd have to be pretty useless not to out do Moyes.
