What has he done to change your opinion so dramatically? Not been a car crash. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bordersbear 1,105 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Was going to post something there, but seeing how this thread is going . Fucking sack the manager, sack the backroom staff, sack the players and the board. Let's burn down Ibrox and make it car park. Then we can appoint a team of armchair managers spending hundreds of millions of pounds of their own money to buy all of the armchair superstars that can do better than the shite we can actually afford and go back to playing on a cinder pitch with coats for goalposts.

Bigdave30 8,707 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 No cunt, we will keep him and we need to try and build some stability off the back of this seasons disappointments. A strong second like it or lump it is an improvement on the previous 2 seasons(if we manage that). I think some people got ahead of themselves thanks to how well we done in Europe, the pills a bit harder to swallow as well when the bheggars have struggled at times and looked there for the taking. We are harder to beat and a mile from the finished article but I’ll reserve my judgement till this time next year (assuming he is still here) theredhandofNewcastle 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblueal 2,117 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 There is no chance in hell Gerard is going anywhere just now. I think he is building us nicely. We lack quality in some positions and with a few higher level signings rather than 12-15 ins we will be far better BlueKnight87, Blue Avenger and DeanMK 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the 2016/17 season Aberdeen finished in second place with 76 points. During the 2017/18 season Aberdeen finished in second place with 73 points. This season, Aberdeen have 52 points with 9 games left to play. Aberdeen have performed well in the cups but I think it's fair to say their league form has dropped off and that needs to be considered. Overall we're one point better off at this stage than we were last year. I do think we'll beat last seasons tally of 70 points but not by much. Our form since returning from the winter break has been quite poor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I think Gerrard will win trophies here. This rinse and repeat nonsense won’t ever work. We need continuity and build on what we have and what we’ve done this season. We’ve improved but we need big improvements now and with that comes cash This. He will figure it out, just not this season with these players.
