| 1. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Tue 6th Jan 2026. 11:10 McCann named as the new Killie boss. Rosenior given a 6 and a half year contract by Chelsea, after one and a half seasons at Sister club Strasbourg. Don’t think either set of fans will be happy with those appointments. Reply |
| 2. Author: GG Riva Date: Tue 6th Jan 2026. 11:47 Dave_1885, Tue 6 Jan 11:10 I don`t know, Dave. The Billy Boys meet the Killie Boys at Rugby Park - what could possibly go wrong? 🤔 The appointment of Liam Rosenior is an intriguing one. I don`t believe The Most Powerful Man on the Planet was consulted..... https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2020/jun/05/open-letter-donald-trump-us-president-george-floyd-liam-rosenior Chelsea fans are already indicating they`re underwhelmed. 😁🙄 ![]() Not your average Sunday League player.

| 3. Author: desparado Date: Tue 6th Jan 2026. 11:56 6-1/2 year contract with Chelsea’s record of sacking managers. I will give him 18 months max then he will receive one of the biggest payouts in football history…. What an opportunity we missed in 2014. Reply |
| 4. Author: dafc-chris1 Date: Tue 6th Jan 2026. 12:00 I think Rosenior will be a success at Chelsea as long as he doesn`t pick fights with the ownership. Reply |

| 6. Author: wee eck Date: Tue 6th Jan 2026. 13:27 Listening to Neil McCann on Sportscene/Sportsound he comes across as pretty clued-up tactically but there`s more to football management than that. Reply |
| 7. Author: neils Date: Tue 6th Jan 2026. 13:33 Well he always sounds clued up, a pundit I like, the trouble is he hasn`t got a good record managing, and it was years ago. The adjustment is harder than I think than we realise. Reply |
| 8. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Tue 6th Jan 2026. 14:23 wee eck, Tue 6 Jan 13:27 This is my thoughts. Seems like he is knowledgeable about the game and analysis it well, so I suppose we’ll see. His time at Dundee went well when he was interim but didn’t go well when he was appointed, so it’s probably an underwhelming one for Killie fans, especially when the rumours were very much Robbie Neilson coming Loving You, Is In My DNA 🇾🇪 Reply |
| 9. Author: Jeffery Date: Tue 6th Jan 2026. 14:30 dafc-chris1, Tue 6 Jan 12:00 6.5 year contract... Chelsea love a long contract. Some severance package if he`s punted after 8 games like Nancy. Reply |
