I did notice the Split part in this ramble, but discounted as Solak is Serbian. They hate Croatia so it is a surprise. 

I'm surprised not to see a 'George' clue anywhere on the thread given Juric is the Slavic derivation of the name. Missed opportunity there I reckon :)

Look at the colour, off red the colours of his last two clubs, Torino and Roma. The number 1 to indicate he is our first choice. The horse is jumping a hurdle which indicates there were no barriers to cross like there was with our second choice. But the most obvious clue is the horse is called  Ivans Hero. You asked for names I give you names and still people say we don’t know anything 🤦‍♂️

another great reveal by the CoT

Please can you give me the name of your dealer. I think I’d enjoy some of whatever it is you’re on.

Of all the thousands of race horses in The world I just got lucky again and chose one that was the same name as our new manager. It’s incredible how lucky I get like when we signed Aaron Ramsdale out of all the thousands of bible verses I got lucky and picked one with the name Aaron in it. Don’t know anything just  So lucky over and over again

Well there's a few problems with your explanation Turkish.

The main one is that the only horse I can find that's called Ivan's hero runs on the flat in Australia, and that's definitely not the horse  wearing the No 1 in the picture which is running in the colours of Mr T G Leslie, yellow with grey sleeves and royal blue seams. The colours of the second horse is red and white. By the way the obstacle they are jumping is a fence not a hurdle.

So nice try but overall a bit of a fail.

When did you put the verse in as Aaron had been rumoured to be coming here for months, even after the playoff final

Thanks for all the lovely DMs and kind messages thanking me for the clues I gave earlier in the week.

I'm amazed how many of you got it right first time. Obviously I need to be more cryptic next time 😉

Let's hope our man travelling North from Split can do the job here at his new home port.

It’ll probably be a tedious link based on the colours. There are enough there to spin a story to a team they have managed historically.

Normally i'm a great supporter of the CofT but on this occasion  i feel probably like many on here that we've been let down. I won't ask you to hang your heads in shame but i think some soul searching and a public (maybe own thread) apology is called for. Shame.

It won’t happen. One particular participant cannot be wrong under any circumstances and certainly will not admit to it in public.It has made for a particularly good Christmas pantomime though (one of the ugly sisters getting their comeuppance).

exhibit A. A picture of Martin Compston playing the lead role in the film the wee man. Which was also Ryan Frasers nickname. how could it be anyone else?@Leighsterrr was bright enough to work it out. Shame others aren’t. 

I think you will find it was obvious Wee man was coming to us as soon as the play off final was won.

Bit harsh, Turkish is our Comedy Ali. He would put up a blank page and claim there is a clue to a manager/player.

Funnily enough I knew of a person who put a blank canvass in an art gallery/exhibition and called it 'Milk bottle in the snow' got loads of attention.

Our leader, who is this blown in on Northern winds

A proud craftsman, a reliable valet to guide us

Hailing from a proud land, is it viking stock?

To repair a torn battlement, to heal from split

To mend us, from black and blue, all chewed up

To make gold from dust

He been far but in many ways is coming home

A bridge, a castle and a land of making, but oh, a port?

Welcome in, welcome in

I got the Split bit but cant quite work out the Viking bit. Did he come to Saints on Viking cruise line? The are other lines that I cant fathom, 

Let us know what that all points to with the new incumbent

Thought I'd bump this just ahead of the new transfer window. Clearly Ivan Juric is going to want to bring in new players and is likely to have some in mind who he knows from previous managerial stints. Are there any rumours the CoT can share at the moment along with the cryptic picture clues? I always look forward to trying to crack them.

Got to agree with @Turkish on this one - it’s not clever or funny to resort to abuse just to attempt to belittle that person especially without actually providing a counter-argument. I’m sceptical of the veracity of the information provided, however I cannot deny the entertainment value these posts bring and if there’s an element of truth in the information then better still. Keep on keeping on @Turkish and friends.
