Saintdunc Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 hmm, steady. Remember John Connolly... Great players don't necessarily became great managers ..............and mediocre (sorry average) players like Alex Ferguson do, and one of our other favourite sons, McCoist, do not.

Cagey Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 Nice to see him and Stirling getting sponsorship from Alan Storrar as well, as he continues his apprenticeship before becoming our manager Surely the sponsorship can't be worth much as I can't see a single outlet second hand dealership having much of a turnover.

Kevin James Is On Stilts Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 Surely the sponsorship can't be worth much as I can't see a single outlet second hand dealership having much of a turnover. I doubt any cash is changing hands in this kind of deal. Branded car for Dave will cost Storrar almost nothing and it can still be sold once the deal runs out.

That's fair enough but is anyone from Stirling going to buy a car from him when there are lots of dealerships in that area who I am sure offer better deals.

The car is a moving advert, it goes wherever he goes. I assume Mackay lives in or around Perth, and if so then it's a smart move because that moving advert will do plenty miles on the roads every day, passing plenty of people in the process. Probably more exposure than the car Tommy has been given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.B.B:- Adz Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 I read Stirling were unfortunate not to get an away win against the league leaders. Did anyone go watch ? Nice wee interview with Liam Caddis in The Daily Ranger.. He concurs that Bikey is not lightweight or skinny: “I surprisingly felt OK fitness-wise on Saturday. I enjoyed being on the ball and the team got stronger as the game went on. Big Frazer (Wright) and the Skip (Ross McMillan) were solid at the back and Dylan (Bikey) is quick and strong up front – he has got everything and his two goals showed that."

HOODLUM65 Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Where's the Stirling Albion page? Away to Cowdenbeath this Sat. 4th March. Caddis, Forsyth, Fraz and Connor McLaren in the squad. Going to Central Park to observe Cuptie's team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melbourne Saint Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 This crap about Mackay being our next manager is, for now, ridiculous. Sure he was a much loved player. But he's no longer a player. He's an apprentice manager, learning & proving himself. He needs at least 4 seasons with whomever to prove he's up to it. No-one mentions Callum Davidson. He knows his stuff now. Mackay- no. Besides, there's no point speculating as we have a good manager in place. sixties saintee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if its a move to a much bigger club (ie not Sevco) Callum might well be tempted if asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODLUM65 Posted March 4, 2017 Report Share Posted March 4, 2017 Dave's team were lucky today before they opened the scoring. 2 centre backs were getting bullied so much that a penalty was conceded. Cowdenbeath penalty was saved by the keeper's foot as he dived the wrong way. 2 further chances went a begging before Albion scored against the run of play. Binos came out second half with more purpose, Caddis breaking forward from his right back position, dummied to cross before advancing another yard to get a clear cross in which was sweetly volleyed into the net from about 18 yards leaving the keeper without an earthly. Another clean sheet, 3 in a row. Dave Ferg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, there's no point speculating as we have a good manager in place. How much management experience did Coyle or MacInnes have prior to being our manager ? I don't think that CupTie being mentioned if TW leaves, is ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
