This was not unexpected, loads of points to be delivered, understandably this won't be tonight.

Maybe not, loads of picks for the Stranraer version, but not the Motherwell one.

And who do you think might be on their shortlist. Hopefully they go for Jack Ross or Tam Courts

My thoughts too, but realistically, IM only has a decent unbeaten run and three great results in a row at Championship-level. Limited success (if any) managing in the Premiership. It would be pretty impulsive to go for a manager, just because his team beat their team - like the Pars did with that Stephen Kenny! That said, if we do progress in the Scottish Cup, win the Challenge Cup and get into the Premiership play-offs, be prepared for rumours of some interest being fed to the press.

Listening to Tam Cowan on Radio Shortbread today and he says they won't go for a manager that's already in a job as they'd have to pay compensation.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. In eleventh by GD, and yet still just three points from ninth, it’s a difficult thing to decide. Do they risk the additional spending to potentially assure the money next year…or really put them in the s**t next year…or do they roll the dice with let’s see what happens. They certainly weren’t dire in midfield yesterday, so there’s something there to build off, but who can do it?

Ian McCall punted by Partick, two managers in as many days and no one had them in their teams.

Then you keep him and demand a payment, no?

A club with as much, if not more, turmoil than we've experienced in recent times. A big division between fans and board, especially regarding the Colin Weir legacy.

Very strange goings on, makes you wonder if they've already got his successor lined up before they binned him, in any case we'll still finish above them Very Happy Razz Very Happy

Billy Dodds must be waiting for 'that' conversation.
Two doings in four days from the league's bottom club.
