Emsca Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 14 hours ago, laukat said: Really happy to see Archie back. He had a really poor last 12 months as manager and made some bad mistakes particularly in player recruitment. He would have had offers from other clubs as a manager but it speaks volumes about the guy that he wants to re-establish himself at Thistle and is willing to learn from McCall. Welcome home Archie Probably made easier by the fact until recently he was still getting paid by thistle.! Glad he's back - but don't be kidded.

Not got a clue but I'm hoping it was to do with some sort of dressing room bust up or the likes. Not to have another go at Caldwell but more as it would be the sort of problem that's easily fixable now that he's gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semi Nurainen Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 'Talented players … everybody will get a chance.' Killer line from Bunter: 'Training sessions can give you a false picture of things'; nil nisi bonum etc., but the one thing the previous incumbent never learned.

Fawlty Towers Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 I don't know if it is either with Caldwell going or McCall coming in but I see that Mark Farrell (sports sciences) is no longer listed on the website as a member of staff.

Missing some training sessions? plus the Bannigan / Oware versus Caldwell altercation, if true. All in the past now thankfully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dibble Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 My understanding is that there will be no sports scientists on the payroll fitness will be the hands of the coaches . McCall probably reckons they didn’t have one at Ayr and they were pretty fit. Perhaps the money saved from that is goes towards the costs of having two coaches / assistants.
