Re: 1st SPL Manager to be sacked

First manager i like is Jim Leishman. He has lost his main man in Barry Nicholson who was their playmaker and has given them some great service over the past few season. Add to this the loss of Langfield and Byrne and Dunfermline are looking a bit weak. I havent seen them sign anyone of real quality as of yet and i can see it being a long season for them.

Tony Mowbray could be worth a shout also. But this is only dependent on which players they manage to hold on. Murray has gone, Riordan has been linked away as has O Conner and Whitaker. Take them out and thats their 4 best players from last season. They have made a potential good signing in Michael Stewart from Hearts. His style of play is more suited to the free flowing football of Hibs.

I feel theres no value in Falkirks manager as they are expected to go back down and Hughes is a massive favourite there. Im sure there fans dont expect much but anything extra is a bonus. Jimmy Calderwood is another one who is safe - Aberdeen have a long term plan and one poor season isnt going to hurt his career there just yet.

Both the Old Firm should also be safe - Mcleish's job i feel is going to be under more pressure. I like the style of players Strachan looks like getting in in the next few days and they will run riot in the SPL. Fancy Celtic to walk the league this season and make an impact in the Champions League if they can get a couple more decent signings in.
