Would Ian Murray be a decent appointment? Who was his assistant?


Colin Cameron. Who knows

You do not want Colin Cameron anywhere near EEP. He is Wee Team through and through and was rank rotten at the managerial roles they gave him.

Ex Aberdeen gaffer Barry Robson would be a good shout to get this team going even at 80%

That was exactly the word that I thought as I read that as well.

Iā€™m just not sold on Barry Robson. He didnā€™t do enough with a pretty decent Aberdeen squad

You probably have seen someone write that and as much as I donā€™t think thatā€™s much of a long term plan for us, I can point to lots of evidence of why ā€œold Campbellā€ may be a good choice of manager.

I canā€™t point to anything that Barry Robson has done. Again, he took a pretty decent Aberdeen team close to relegation. Dons fans were wanting him out a long time before he actually left. Apparently not only were results poor the football was crap šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø

Mcpake is clearly out of his depth at this level, tactically inept and constantly playing players out of position, clearly doesn,t have a clue what his best eleven is and long contracts to players that are barely 1st division level, the last few performances have been dire at a new level and its obvious the only way we are going under him is down. time for a change and quickly

He did and with a team that had a bad start to the season. They played some great football to get into, and through the playoffs. He hasnā€™t replicated that with the Pars though.

Yeah, I agree with you.

Itā€™s not working for him just now. IMO he gave contracts to players he shouldnā€™t have and itā€™s now really biting him in the back side especially with having the budgetary constraints that we have.

Think he made some judgements on players based on their performance in league one and found they werenā€™t good enough for the Championship.

He was left with a poor championship team that had just been relegated and the tube ended up resigning them all and wanders why we are still a poor championship club.

Thatā€™s on him.

Yeah, absolutely. Of course and with the benefit of hindsight but he really should have taken the previous relegation season into consideration. Weā€™re seeing a lot of the same issues as that season we were relegated now.

As things stand best case scenario is a playoff spot

Berkey, I donā€™t always agree with you but I can absolutely agree with your point there. 2 absolutely shocking summer transfer windows and weā€™re now propping up the league.

His management statistics are getting close to being one of the worst on record at EEP, up there with Scott, Forsyth, Stanton, Hay, Grant, Hughes to name but a few. The thread running through this lot are people on the board who haven`t a clue how to run a football club. ICT are not the only club in trouble with the way they are being run.

Its may be more than co-incidence we have not taken anything from a single game this season in league cup or league where opponent has scored first and that might say something about the resilience / toughness of the squad. You could lay this at the managers door and say he needs to bring in the right types but i think thats harsh as any manager needs to work with a player for a while and observe them closely to understand the character of anyone who has come to the club. JM record in championship of 12 wins in 44 is a poor win rate and compares unfavourably with predecessors but none of the faced anything remotely like the difficulties he faces at present with the whole club limping along in a state of limbo until ownership issues are solved so the comparison with predecessors is deeply unfair and flawed. I would expect all fair minded supporters to stick with with it, applaud James` fortitude and cut the guy a bit of slack in these uniquely challenging times for everyone connected with DAFC.
