cristo Posted May 6, 2020 Report Share Posted May 6, 2020 8 hours ago, Linky said: Wotte's CV is pretty varied - not sure if that's a good thing. He's never stayed anywhere for very long. He will have plenty of connections, but he might have made some enemies in the Scottish FA too. Similar to another couple of Dutch coaches I could name, Advocaat and Van Gaal. Moved around loads and not many failures between them. So here's a scenario. Wotte comes in for a couple of seasons with, say, Liam as his apprentice. He's worked in Scotland quite recently so I'm pretty sure he'll know where Saints stand on wages etc. Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least he knows the Scottish game, & will have an idea of the sort of budgets we’re looking at (something which I expect would shock the likes of Boa Morte or McCarthy). cristo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was highly thought of by the SFA and from memory had good relations with a lot of the managers. Think it was a shock when he left the Sfa.

Used his Saints connections at first then he really floundered as a manager. Tom Leykis and HOODLUM65 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCarthy worked for a spell at Hibs and seems to have been knocking around Scotland for a while, so I guess he could conceivably be a bit more informed on Scottish budgets etc than people might think. Agree on Boa Morte, although he's perhaps no less clued up on the Scottish game than Lomas was. Can't see either of them being in the frame though.

I think when left Arbroath McInness made him youth coach at Aberdeen & think he is doing a decent job. I think he is often him the dugout with Del & assistant. Don't think I want him as Saints manager though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left at the end of the season. Won U17 league with saints and reserve league with Aberdeen and made 2 youth finals so not bad experience with teams.
