TheYellowBox Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 4 hours ago, THE LARK SAINT said: I would think the proper way ( doesn't always happen in football) way to do it would be to promote Clelland and bring in someone like Dave McKay/ Wright/ Sheerin type ex Saint to fill that role I should imagine this is the route we will see Saints taking If the story is true in first place Agree with this. I would imagine that if it is not clelland, then justifiably, he’d wonder what his future is and maybe want to leave too. Craig Brewster might be another potential if it is no not be from within. Someone like Jim Duffy would have bags of experience, but I doubt he’d be suited to be Tommy’s assistant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMac Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 (edited) I would imagine Chairman Broon, will go for the most cost effective route, which may not be the best route for the ongoing development of the team, he makes the decisions and is bombproof. Paul Sheerin for me. Edited June 18, 2018 by GMac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 If it had happened a month ago then it could have seen Clelland moving up with Midge taking Cllland role. Or Craig. It is the Brown way. The most economical option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainstand Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Folk talking about the assistant manager bringing in new ideas for coaching etc, forget that when Tommy Wright came into the Club as assistant manager, the coaching of the first team was not done by him but by Clelland and the fitness coach.

chips Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Would like Paul Sheerin to find a place within our coach/management Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintdunc Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Now then, with everything else that is going on (sic), could this be a sign that we are cost cutting further, and that Callum was encouraged to depart. We might not even appoint a No 2 but if we do it will come from within the club, thus saving some more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus they've moved out of Perth and stay in Dundee now. A combination of being a bit closer commute for him and easier for his young family who do a lot of country dancing in the Dundee area.

Jenko82 Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 I think having been recently declared bankrupt that Callum may have been on the look out for a better paid position, so not sure that cost cutting by the chairman can be used as a reason with any conviction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ScottMann Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 I really don't see how anyone can see this as anything other than Callum moving on to a bigger, better job, just as happened when he left us as a player. Good luck to the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bankfoot saint Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 I am hoping we can get an assistant manager from down south with plenty contacts in the lower leagues. As for Calum leaving did he not become bankrupt a wee while ago which moment financially he couldn’t turn the job with stoke down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 Goalkeeping coach Paul Mathers also away apparently, Sunderland bound. TW absolutely raging about the way Jack Ross has gone about it. Apparently spoke directly to Mathers and hasn't even spoken to Wright about going for one of his staff members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Albion Rovers and Scotland under age teams. possible shout if mathers does go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 Can we not stretch the net a little wider than coaches that have previously played for Saints? Albion Rovers conceded more goals than most in the Scottish leagues last season as well. Radford 72 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ScottMann Posted June 20, 2018 Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 So Saints had an official approach from Dundee United for Paul Mathers, turned them down and he signed a new deal with us. It would have been good to hear this when it happened but it does show that, surprise surprise, the club hasn't actually been shut down for the last month as some would have you believe.
