i think fitton might not look at himself as blameworthy at all. pissed douglas off too it would seem.not that i have much sympathy for him either.

Totally agree with everything Oaksey Moonraker said. The next managerial appointment is crucial and I surely can't be alone in being amazed that Fitton has said Harte is a strong candidate. I don't believe he's done anywhere near enough to be considered on a permanent basis. Quite frankly at times he's seemed completely clueless. If he gets the job it will be fairly clear that Fitton has learnt nothing from the previous mistakes he's made and is obviously adverse to the opinion of the supporter.

Chairmen always say the incumbent's a strong candidate though, usually a couple of days before the caretaker manager's passed over in favour of a proper permanent manager. It's just one of those standard meaningless verbal tics in football.

Any of our Scotch contingent know much about Jim McIntyre manager of Dunfermline?
What strikes me at the moment is a lack of even half appealing managers. Usually there is a short-list of 4-5 names, some are usually unrealistic but they usually make for a decent wish list. At the moment I’d be hard pushed to name even two out of work managers that would be credible choices to replace Hart. Looking north of the border McIntryre and perhaps even Bollan at Livi look like two very promising up and coming managers that are worth a sniff and would work well along side an older head like Hart.

I did hear last week that if we are relegated (when) Nick Watkins will step down. Don't know how true it is, and I don't know if it is a push or not.

Certainly hope not. He's done a bloody good job IMO

That would be a real shame if it happens. Nick Watkins has worked tirelessly behind the scenes and genuinely seems to care about the club. I expect most will disagree with me, but quite honestly I think he'd be more of a loss to the club than if Fitton stood down.

I would only disagree in so far as I think it would be a fucking big loss for either of them to go.

If Fitton interferers with what the manager wants to do he's a meddling eejit that knows nothing about football and who should leave the football people to get on with that mysterious business of recruiting players.
If he does nothing and lets Wilson get on with it and Wilson cocks it up he's also an idiot. Which is it to be?

At the time Prutton seemed like a very decent signing, perhaps as backup for Douglas. I think most people agreed that we needed competition/suitable backup for Douglas because when he was suspended on one or two occasions last year we really missed him. However, playing Douglas & Prutton in the same team obviously doesn't work and upsets the balance. Douglas and Ferry last season were great together and i'm disappointed that they haven't continued with this for this season.
Prutton may have been a great signing had we not had Douglas, who knows?
You've got to be shitting me... Worst signing for years and on mega bucks too!
