I just presumed I’d missed the news that there actually has been contact as you stated that they’d spoken before the two games. I take it there’s no actual proof and you are surmising? Correct.

wee-toon-red Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Rangers asked for permission to speak to McInnes this evening. DENIED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait for the change of tactic from the media and all the ex Huns. The new line will be poor Derek, they should let h8m go to his dream job.

giblet Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 all so predictable. Boyd last night actually said that McInnes would want the move as Rangers "were back" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he does, then they (including the fans) should tell him to GTF ? Maybe the answer is "Yes" and Aberdeen are going to hold out for max compensation before letting him go ?

Aberdeen need to protect their interests in the best way they can. If that's to hold out for more cash then fair enough. I'm not convinced McInnes is the right man but he now appears to actually be the man. Two step forward, one step back it seems. Will be interesting to see how it unfolds now.

Imagine he has a clause in contract that only allows him to talk to possible suitors if they agree to pay his buy-out figure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see how it unfolds now. It’ll go one of 2 ways. McInnes will either release a statement of sorts tomorrow saying he has no intention of leaving and has unfinished business etc, similar to what happened with Sunderland. Or, Rangers will come back with an improved bid and the Aberdeen bord will release a further statement saying after Derek approached us and informed us of his desire to join Rangers we have reluctantly agreed to let him enter discussions with Rangers. I think it will probably be the latter and he’ll be in place by the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at you, but not sure what is funnier the last few weeks, the press or the TAMB. Enjoying both.

I think he needs to be as I doubt there's a way back for him at AB24 - And there probably hasn't been for a week to 10 days now. Milne released the interview pretty much saying over to you Derek - With no confirmation his relationship / credibility with the support and the team went downhill rapidly. I can only imagine the reception he'll get if he's in our dugout at Dens on Friday. So, it'll be interesting to see what management team we will spend c.£1m on - And how McInnes does with Rangers going forward. After 2 defeats on the bounce we look to have secured the right result tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compliant media can kill you as well though, off the radar wealth and all that. Keith Jackson being able to be a paid journalist in Scotland is as embarrassing as any appointment internationally.
