I'm in two minds about Coyle and Stubbs.
Obviously staying in the top flight is the absolute priority. I've no idea if Coyle would get out out of the mess we are in but I think he would be the best candidate if we remain a premiership team next term.
Stubbs or Peter Houston, on the other hand, I feel would be better choices if we were to be relegated. Both have managed at that level and would know the league inside out.
Although the decision should be based on keeping us in the league. I wonder if the board will be thinking ahead to next season should the worse case scenario happen.
