Agreed. Paint watches him dry.
But equally comes across like someone you wouldn't mess with and seems sure it what he wants to do. |  | | |

George Burley was extremely dull in front of a camera and that went pretty well. |  |

never thought it was tremendously productive judging Cook or Lambert by their press conferences, same applies to McKenna |  |

That applies to all football managers. To a greater or lesser degree, it's just flannel. |  |

I tend to agree but I think the media dealings are actually a big part of the game, particularly for a new, novice manager | |

And why should media dealings require Churchillian speeches?
He sounded very polished and professional in the interview I heard from him. A million times more so than Roy Keane.
You have decided he is going to fail. Don't follow that up with then determining that anything you can find wrong with him should be amplified a billion times. We get it that you were happy with Cook but please, in that case, judge the new guy on the same expectations. |  |

Oh, and how many Churchillian speeches do you think the man of many voices gave? And why do you think every single one of them was so ineffective? | |

He is certainly very, very serious about his football. But as a fan of Andy Murray that seriousness and focus makes sense. And, just like Murray, there’s enough of a glint in there when K-Mac can address other less technical areas.
The best insight I got was the shot of the directors’ box when we scored – nice, fairly private, little fist clench from him that suggests he sees the club’s success as his success even when he’s just sitting in the stand watching someone else’s team.
But let’s be honest ... until we know his favourite cheese, I’m on the fence. |  |

What is the minimum cheese acceptance level before the posse needs to be assembled to chase him out of Playford Road?.
Does Dairylea keep the restless lynch mob at bay? Is cheese with fruit in it cause for a stoning? For me, buying grated cheese in a bag is a straight red card for sure. Goat or Sheep cheese - assemble the firing squad. [Post edited 20 Dec 2021 19:54]

Dairylea is a sackable offence. American cheese too.
I’d accept lactose intolerant over those two. | |

Secret confession: I’ve always liked dairylea, the round packets, challenge of unwrapping it, how well it spreads or how east it is to eat…. But my excuse is that I don’t count it as cheese. Now American cheese, I totally agree with you. It is totally bland. Even their version of stilton is rubbish. If he likes that, out he goes. Cheap own brand mild cheddar is a sacking offence. It’s in there with the American rubbish. | | | |

But surely if you must have spreadable cheese then cream cheese is the answer?
Not whateverthefeckthatotherstuffis.
It's like molten plastic. |  |

He is now. Wait until we win the playoff final, he’ll be windmilling his dick around Wembley. |  |

No, but he is articulate and intelligent. I didn't count many of the usual clichés that adorn most manager interviews. He has a quiet strength and I think as good a chance of moulding what is effectively someone else's squad into a winning team as anyone. Let's see. |  | | |

Obviously, I really want McKenna to succeed.
I hope he walks into that dressing room Tuesday and garners immediate respect and, from those who don't, he wins them over. | |
