Who Will Be The Next Scotland Manager?

The Scotland manager’s job is hardly the most appealing role in football management. Since the disastrous reign of Bertie Vogts, the national team have performed relatively poorly, and it seems the only draw to the job is the potential to transform a team in disarray.

Since the sacking of George Burley only a few months ago, speculation has been intense as to who will take on such a challenging role, and the following pages will provide informative guides to the current situation, and who the potential candidates are. Firstly, we assess the downfall of Burley, and how the national team failed to qualify for the World Cup 2010. Next, we pick some of the highlight candidates for the vacant role, and assess the odds currently being offered by bookmakers – there’s money to be made.

We analyse the credentials of Dundee United manger Craig Levein, and consider whether is relative youth could work for, or indeed against him, in his reported desire to take the national job. We then pose the question as to whether a successful Scottish footballer would be better suited to the taking the helm during such a difficult time – John Collins is the bookmakers 2nd favourite for the role, and we offer a profile of the said ex International, before highlighting the pick of the outsiders, Graeme Souness. The ex Liverpool defender has been out of work for some time now, since leaving Newcastle in fact, and has never shied away from a challenge.
