We appear to have appointed a manager who shares the same coaching philosophy

as John Beck, from a tiny Scottish club, with very little experience, to manage a squad full of internationals. This won't end well. McNally has really cocked it up. It looks more like a vanity project than a sensible decision.
What a farking clown.
