I know for a fact that Scott Leitch used to go to Ibrox and suppoorted Rangers.

This years top 6 effort was certainly soild due to the fact that McGhee mad a total arse of the St Mirren game and we missed out.

Why would they not deny it if it isn't true?

Leitch will regret this move when Muttonley inevitably dumps him to further his own career.

I'd definitely take Nijholt with an assistant who has experience of Scottish football over anybody else I've seen linked with the job so far.

That's not really the point. I don't know where you work but I'd be surprised if your job was in any way similar to being manager of an SPL football team. If you pissed your customers about you'd probably get sacked with one months pay. It seems that football managers can do it all they want and then fuck off to another team or expect the rest of their contract to be paid up if they're sacked.

He can't sign anything until compensation has been agreed. If it all falls through John Boyle will probably tell us what a big coup it is for us persuading him to stay and Mark McGhee will tell us that he decided not to go at the last minute because he hasn't finished what he started with us.

I know times are hard but if you look at who we've lost recently we should surely have enough to sign a good few players. Hughes, Porter and Malcolm would have been among the higher earners and Smith would possibly have been on the next tier. If you add their wages to the reported £200,000 we should get for McGhee and a possible transfer fee if anybody else leaves we should be in a better position than a fair few SPL clubs.

If there's plenty left I'd be interested in buying some more stuff. Anything in medium or large. Maybe the leftovers could be listed on here or something?

I thought McGhee's tactics and team selection were amateurish today. When you've got a full squad to choose from it's criminal to play players out of position in a must-win game. I thought the team looked totally disjointed and he should have made a change before St Mirren went ahead as we never really looked likely to score.
