Confirmed as Scotland boss.
No happy. He's too good, some Eng champ'ship side will have him away if he manages two wins in a row![]()
I can’t see him standing for players pulling out when it suits them, or they might miss out if we get to the EurosFun and games releasing rangers stars in future oh wait
He will need it.....as all managers do.Good luck to Steve Clark..he is going to need it.
Scottish football is like Scottish politics, fractured beyond repair, and it's getting worse. Clarke is on a hiding to nothing. The Huns already hate him and also have a deluded disdain for the SFA and national team, so that's a large section of the support won't go or support. It all stems from what's happening at club level and until the EBT scandal is properly addressed it's only going to fester and affect the national team. There's also rangers own mindset where they refuse their players to play for Scotland with their imaginary withdrawal due to injury.A sound manager leaving a club that has finished 3rd ,has fans pouring back and a place in Europe next season. Steve Clarke has achieved this and has chosen to leave at this point in time to manage a team (and I use the term loosely ) without being disrespectful a team in tatters with disillusioned fans.
Steve you're either a blinkered fool or a man with a vision and grit to succeed in bring back pride to the nation.
Personally I'd go with the latter.
He is a manager with a good job (Killie) not some dud or hasbeen.
Derek Mcinnes was quoted as saying he would be interested in Scotland job in the future but not at the moment (Dons may still get euro spot if tic beat jambos I believe) so he's not willing to stick his neck out and accept the poison chalice.
Steve C.has also mentioned the women's team and their success which I hope the nation gets behind.
Whatever happens to the Scotland squad success or failure I hope we remember that this man who had a good job was willing to step up to the plate and applaude him for trying.
All the best Steve Clarke you're a bigger man than most.
