I wonder if he sends himself home happy at night????

If he doesn't, he'd probably go home again, and again, and again, never actually going home happy. Twilight zone shit.

Don't know about good position but he certainly left us in a better state than we were in before he arrived.

[Don54 25,517]

3rd in the league, 33 points behind the filth and a g.d. of 5 is not a good position

Which thinking about it, wasn't all that hard.

Ok maybe agenda is the wrong word, but let's not pretend that everything he's done was shite and an absolute disaster, just because he's largely failed this year and the tried to snake his way to a new club. 

He made plenty of positive steps, won trophies, stopped the filth in the cup, and brought our infrastructure and professionalism forward after being neglected so badly by McCoist. 

Fair enough .Take those points

Already responded to it. It'll be a page or so back.

He lost the dressing room. I watched his Forest presser and he just repeats the same old shite time and again. I liked him and wanted him to do well but it's clear he has mental health issues. He'll be sacked by Forest by Xmas. Clueless

At the end of the day -- he met his remit, he got us back up.

This season wasn't what we all expected / hoped for -- but he was second for the bulk of it, and had us on course for Europe. The Scum are having a one-off season and we could've spent about £50m and not caught them.

At the end of the day, his downfall was his unwillingness to change, receptiveness to criticism and unconvincing/unvaried transfer policy.

 

He wasn't a success. He wasn't a rip roaring disaster either. 

His biggest downfall was next to nil budget.

He spent more than every team in the country put together bar one and left us in 3rd

he also inherited a team of shite that had to be let go, Aberdeen already had a squad in place. £3-£4 million is not enough to rebulid an entire squad and i've always said it says more about the rest of the teams in the SPL that we were sitting second having played so utterly shite.

He's just lucky it's full of dross in a decent league we would be mid-table at best just now

3/4 million on transfer fees then wages for guys like Barton, Senderos, Krancjar. That's +50k a week he spunked away on shite. Aberdeen's entire wage budget probably isn't as much as that.

He had more than enough to have us comfortably in 2nd.

Well we'll find out when we see what Caixinha does with the squad he's inherited.

I'm sure Adolf Hitler would say he left Germany in a good position too.

 

(Yes I am comparing being behind Aberdeen and Celtic in the league to Nazi Germany and what it caused)

To be fair, he took them on a good run in Europe.

[K.A.I 36,183]

His delusion really knows no bounds.

I don't think anyone takes him seriously anyway. 

[Zander1 180]

Technically he's right, but the only way he could've left us in worse shape would have been finishing fourth in the Championship.  I don't think that's an appropriate way to measure his success.

[one55 1,510]

aye alright warburton fs. keep talking pish. it's all you're good at.

[TEFTONG 60,108]

All ifs I think.  If he won the Scottish Cup, that would have been an achievement. If had he got anything from his summer signings, we would have been closer to tims. On both counts, he failed.

 I think he had an issue with what fans expected. What DK expected as well, given the extra signings he got, was the other issue. He had some good results, like beating Hearts and sheep in consecutive games but many long periods of no real improvement. We wallowed in mediocrity for a lot of the time, with the same old story of getting caught out. We never looked convincing or gave an opposing team a going over. A lot of the games we struggled when we won.........many of them in fact. He may have played nice possesion football, but I think there would have been quite a few managers who could have achieved as much, or possibly more, given his budget and our support.  I have no issues with him and I think he was a credit to us in many ways. Salesman though and I wont miss that sales patter.

To quote Warburton i am bemused
