I like it when we do that thing where the ball comes in and we head it and score. Shit... was Murphy right?

[KRS]

Doesn’t have a history of high profile clubs…Cowdenbeath, St Mirren, Heart of Midlothian and FC Midtjylland. Also assistant coach for Northern Ireland before moving to Scotland. Basically the level of domestic and international teams that you’d expect the kind of shit tactics we’re now seeing at Villa Park being used.

Something seriously changed with our style of play by this appointment. What I don’t get is we are trying to establish a style of play throughout the club so how the hell are any of our youngsters going to adapt to this 1980’s style. We pass the ball out from the keeper, play it nervously two or three times then punt it down the channels. The long throw is used too much and what’s happened to the set pieces?

I hate to say it but Danny Murphy may have been right at the start of the season when this was discussed on MOTD.

We’re so hard to watch, even at two nil against Wolves it wasn’t a confident performance, Wolves were woeful that day.

Does he work for Scotland national team too. Sure I saw a bloke who looked like him on their bench?

[kippaxvilla2]

He does.

Can they please take him back. He is absolutely hopeless.

[kippaxvilla2]

He still works for them.  He’s only part time with us I think.  Or them I’m not sure.   

[kippaxvilla2]

The time to worry is when he starts to say ‘Bingo’ around the training ground.

How do you know that?

The other coach he works with at Scotland is the legend that is John Carver. With those two on board no wonder Scotland are such an international force to be reckoned with.

He's a total Mickey Mouse appointment. We're meant to be one of the richest clubs in the world, then we employ some clown who was at Cowdenbeath, I hope this isn't going to turn in to another MON era, all the money in the world and buying Marlon Harewoods and Emile Heskeys.

[Nev]

There is nothing wrong with the appointment but his brief appears to have gone way beyond set pieces. I sit level with the edge of the technical area and he was the furthest forward at times barking at the players. Either his influence is too great or Dean Smith has decided to completely abandon his style of play in favour of a rudimentary and, frankly outdated approach.

I leave you to decide which is which.

[Duncan Shaw]

And what about the other new coach - he seems to have delivered bugger all!!

I was thinking that yesterday, I can't recall seeing much of him on the touchline....

Who is the other new coach?
