You could infer from his comments that the Stephen Glass speculation is true, although there are quite a few ex Dons who are now in management so who knows really.

However they rarely outperformed expectations under him and that lack of progress and the hoofball they resorted to latterly have been his undoing. Personally I hope they forego the usual suspects and show some imagination with their next appointment. And your next manager will be ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr mojo risin Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 He took us top of the League in January 2015 & only a late Celtic winner at Killie stopped us having a chance to go top as late as March 2016. Nobody outside Glasgow will get that close to a title ever again so I thank him for that period of hope & pride he gave us. When he signed Logan & Rooney, and rejuvenated Pawlett, we were also exciting to watch for a while but it has become an increasingly painful watch the last 2-3 years. Not all his fault as Shinnie, Hayes, McGinn etc. started to leave and even this season he's taken in £6M and not seen any of it to spend. Good luck to the new guy.

Brilliant financial support would have been getting a cut of sales to buy players. Some of his signings (and they've mostly been freebies) haven't been great but when you turn a player from £20k to £2M I think you're entitled to get some of it to spend rather than raking around for freebies and loans.

Diamond Scot Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Id love Aberdeen to go for somebody that doesnt have any fear of the Old Firm. Somebody with an extreme inner confidence. Also could so with somebody who commands high standards throughout the club. Seperate matter but I hear Scott Wright has put on 4kg of muslce since singing for Rangers. Did Aberdeen not think he had to bulk up or were they just accepting of lower fitness levels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanderark14 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Stephen Glass the hot favourite now. I'll give him a chance but this seems lazy to me. Glass hasn't done anything of note and cormack has just gone with the Atlanta connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kumnio Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 I’ve just listened to the BBC Sportsound Podcast from last night. It just confined that people involved in football are self serving, pig ignorant, blinkered, fuckers. The defence of McInnes was pathetic, every single excuse was used, all to defend one of their wee pals. Levein, Dodds, Faddy and McCall would have been as well sitting in the corner, saying we are right, you lot are always wrong. The media in this country is dumbed down nonsense, and always clap happy pish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clowns like the ones you mentioned on night after night & presented by clown in chief kenny McIntyre. Almost every guest spouts bland, mind-numbing drivel.
