What do people think of the Scotsmen Ernie Merrick and Ian Ferguson? 

To me, Merrick seemed pretty competent  in his years at MV until that last season when things seemed to go a bit awry.

A-League winner and coach of the year 2007, 2010. 10 months managing Hong Kong national team till last December (2 wins, 2 losses until he became victim of internal political wrangling in HK FA apparently)

Ferguson just doesn't seem to be a good manager from what has unfolded in his career so far...

Maybe Merrick with Ferguson as assistant might work...

I've never seen a younger looking 60 year-old than Merrick either (maybe he has a secret elixir that could rejuvenate the Nix):
