DNSYE - MALKY MACKAY SPECIAL PART TWO

Do Not Scratch Your Eyes

PART TWO

We carry on a hugely enjoyable conversation with Malky by finishing off his "1 in 10" with stories of the great and the good including a certain goal from a certain defender we all loved. We discover which player he tried to take to Ross County twice, plus a couple of players who he knew from Watford and managed at Cardiff.

In light of Clev's stepping into management we discuss Malky's experience transitioning into coaching and the mentors and experience of temporarily leaping into the hot seat, understanding the demands and the different stakeholder requirements. The importance of the inclusion of players and staffs families in a holistic management style is discussed plus attention to detail leading into the 2006 Play Off finals and Bouncy Castles!

The appreciation of local derby matches and the differences between rivalries around the country before we go into the play off final memories when Malky achieved a third consecutive promotion to the top flight and the celebration discussion that assured Malky that, this time, he would be getting to play in the Premier League.

Brendan Rodgers appointment and the ways that Malky assisted him and the things he took from the now Celtic manager are covered despite the obvious disappointment about not getting the first team manager role initially. Malky explains how he would get the effort levels from a group of players consistently highlighting the importance standards and values being set and lived by. The cast and characters behind the scenes when the club was perilously close to administration are revealed and the roles and names of those that prevented it from happening are celebrated. Perhaps a lesson not to forget plus words from GT and memories of the great man.

Finally we get to owners and Malky's eventual departure from the Hornets.

Part Three out tomorrow
