He is as mad as a meat axe and it would end in tears.

The players he worked with for the most part have very positive things to say about him. And the results he got don't lie. Perhaps it would end in tears......most appointments do, even the better ones (Dick Advocaat, Mourinho at Chelsea) but I'll be happy as long as he takes us forward a couple of years and then we can move on again if need be. I'm hoping, but not expecting, the next manager to be the one who actually manages to win the title back. But it absolutely has to be someone that moves us forward, and Davies has a track record across various clubs of doing that.

From the names id like it to be Gio or Allardyce but I think we’ll get McInnes but I’d not be against that

of course I don't think it will influence the board.

Would be nice if it did though, at least we wouldn't end up with McLeish

Wasn't meaning you mate. Was responding to ritchieshearerwhatsits post?

I honestly don't know anymore, and to be honest I don't think many people do. There's no magic wand. The best name on paper could fuck it just as much as the worst. It's the ultimate conundrum. The players are a bigger issue for me. Time and time again they let us down. They are good enough players IMO, and have shown at times they have ability, but then they somehow become incapable of producing the very basics consistently let alone anything better than that. It's fucking bizarre. Some of them should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves, and any who try to blame Pedro are utterly gutless. Pedro has been sacked, and deservedly so, but collectively, he, the players and the board are all culpable in this sorry mess.

Football is a very simple game, that far too many try to over complicate. It really isn't that difficult. I just want a manager who can execute the most simple, yet overlooked qualities in a manager. Stability, organised, good communication, authoritative, passionate, ability to adapt and change things and merely play players in their preferred positions. And with regard to the players all they need to do is follow their fucking runners, pass the ball 5 yards, show a bit of bravery on the ball and burst their balls for 90 minutes. The stupid cunts can't even do that but if they did it goes a helluva long way.

Right now, we just need to steady the ship and get back to basics. It really shouldn't be too much to ask.................

I think you've missed out Derek McInnes from the second question in the poll.

Paying the sheep 1 mil for his services will be a non starter with this board. Not that I would want him in any case.

[Ivybank 4,588]

Funny no one has mentioned moyes,managed one of the worlds famous teams,knows what it's like at the very highest level,did well at Everton, not so well in Spain, family are all bluenoses

Would like sean dyche as our manager but obviously no chance he would leave Burnley to come to us, think mcinnes will get it

Do you actually think king will fork out 1 mil compo for his services?

[KWBear 1,640]

Michel preud'homme was linked earlier 

know fuck all about him 

[Big Al 55 9,275]

You left out McInnes.

I'd like Big Sam, Tony Pulls or Gio will likely be Miller.

[rangersross 6,530]

Interesting - I'm in the majority in both cases.

There's only one Ronald Koeman. His twin is called Erwin.

[bornabear 6,205]

Since Sir WS, we've had an A list from Disneyland. 

I don't know who we'll get, so I don't even want to guess, but one thing is for sure, we cannot afford another from Disneyland.

[tannerall 25,935]

Did anyone have Pedro to win this competition last time ?

[Ryju84 3,170]

What is Tony Pullis doing these days? 

Have always liked him... although only basing this on BBC MOTM programme...

Drugs... no. Half bottle of whisky... yes. I just think he is alright. 

[Turnberry18 3,204]

Why is McInnes not on the second question?

[JC10 1,449]

I genuinely don't think Mcinnes would come to us.

[KingKirk 25,657]

Mcinnes why I have back him for years on here since ally got sacked. He should of been the man then and he is the man now he deserves the chance 

[WWTC 2,247]

I'm voting other: Souness, just so his mates pump money into us.

[SuperPapac05 3,383]

Sir Alex Ferguson  I had to vote for him due to the sheer retardedness of him being on the list

I want Billy Davies and I realise that's not popular.

I've read and heard over the last few years that 'city slicker' Mark Warburton had all the answers, that Frank De Boer was the messiah we had missed out on......sexy names don't necessarily cut it.

Davies will do a job. How far he'll take us I don't know, perhaps after 2 to 3 years it will end in tears but I'd bet for the most part of that period he takes us forward. He did it with Preston, he did it with Derby and he did it with Notts Forrest.

Naw he didnt. Had a good season with Derby once. One good season and being a fan does not make a gers manager. He falls out with very board. Exactly the kind of instability we don't need!!!!
