CottonRunt 978 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Sad to say but i think McInnes is looking like the best bet so far. Hopefully the DOF has a few contacts and can get us a few decent players in, dont think i would trust McInnes with money, would probably spunk £1m on Hayes like Warburton wanted to do.

What a clusterfuck. Ross Wilson knows John Park, John Park is best buddies with McLeish.......just saying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too late for a caretaker as they've taken that fucking long and as for a DOF and no doubt the staff he will require, a waste of money from wherever the fuck they will get it from. Would even a good one make an impact to overtake the scum on an already limited budget? I seriously doubt it. The little money we have would be far better spent and return greater value on attracting a decent manager. I think you are right. If we are skint (and we seem to be) then why split the money available over two appointments (ie DoF and manager) instead of pooling the cash and going for a better managerial appointment?

I wasn't too happy with the likes of Mcinnes/Wright/Davies name being banded about. The longer it has went on the less I want McLeish and the more I want McInnes. Apart from last night Aberdeen had won 10/11 games. Taking them from botton half under Craig Brown to consistent 2nd place under a smaller budget than us. He's also part of 9iar, playing under Smith and Advocaat (two great managers to learn from),has a wealth of experience in Europe and winning leagues with us Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creampuff 22,628 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 16 minutes ago, RDFM said: What has he accomplished that makes him a "very decent" candidate? He led Burton to back-to-back playoffs in League Two, rescued a flailing Birmingham (21st to 10th in C'ship) and was looking a decent bet to get them in the playoffs before the new board appointed their own man. I don't see how he's anything but a very decent candidate. He's not been in management long enough to be any better than that, has been successful enough in the jobs he has done to be at least that.

KWBear 1,640 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Well rumour is big eck was kings preferred choice when we appointed Warburton. What a fucking shambles. Fucking called it as well. Fucking piss arse around for three weeks realising just how fucking skint we are, then appoint this aberration of a manager. Seen it fucking coming from MILES off. It's honestly hard to keep caring. Unless he is in for chats about an interim appointment then this board can fuck right off and eat shite. Trooblue 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warburton was the favourite of Gilligan and Paul Murray. Posted it at the time after the Celtic game. Might have been one of the threads about Burton and the bust-up.
