ClydebankJag Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 Britton came back as assistant manager without having had any success at all in the Firhill managerial hot seat. I’m sure we can live with Archie as number 2 to McCall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, this season isn't going well with KM so far is it, even accepting that KM has certainly not been a problem? The curse of Chick Young may strike again................

scotty Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 We seem to be forgetting that Partick Thistle is currently in the throes of a takeover bid so why would anyone want the managerial position at this time? The timing of all this is mystifying to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thornwood Jag Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 The word seems to be that it's McCall who is stipulating that he wants Archie as his number 2. I would be happy with this but on today's evidence the challenge is daunting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emsca Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 2 hours ago, Pinhead said: I wouldn't be against that, if it was Archie on his own i would say no chance but both together then yes. The only problem is the weirdness of Archie coming back and being McCalls number 2...that sounds or surely would feel weird for Archie and the players no? So what? Its weird for them initially - tough. The poor wee delicate flowers will just need to get on with it. Anyway most of the squad have been recruited since Archie left.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 5 hours ago, jagfox said: No issue with him as assistant manager. Just playing along with the idea that Chick Dung is on the ball with this one. Could be McCall being made general manager and Archie coming back as head coach. One of Bunter's attributes is he's a good wheeler and dealer in the transfer market plus he's imaginative when arranging player contracts. Archie often failed to get the signing of targeted players over the line resulting in panic or third fourth choice signings. Probably the only real difference in that scenario as opposed to manager/assistant manager would be McCall wouldn't be in the dug out on matchdays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
