deserves a chance to be fair, never really done a bad job anywhere

saved ross county and killie from relegation, took aberdeen to last 32 of uefa cup, took dunfermilne to scottish cup final.

I thought it said "happy to walk to Dundee". I laughed. The fat cunt wasn't fit enought to walk from his Scotia house at the Barracks to the Black Dog pub.

Millertime?......

2 cars in every driveway.

 

Well, maybe not in Dundee. No space after the caravan is parked.

[The Oxford Don]

Poor wee Dundee.

 

What on earth have they done to deserve this?

[Dandie1992]

Mark Kaaayiir and Barry... MMMMMMMMM

[Ke1t]

Given a couple of seasons he'll probably get them back into the SPL and turn them into a mid-table side.

 

If I were a Dundeh fan, for the short term, I'd be happy enough with that.

 

What they shouldn't do is hand him a three and a half year contract and then fire him a year into it, because that would be fucking idiotic.

 

...wouldn't it, Aberdeen?

A money spending manager - something not available at Dundee.

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

King Jimmy King of Kings was such a King that he even had a few players playing for us and not even getting paid. Like super Gary Dempsey who is like Iniesta compared to Hughes. And Dyron Daal who probably scored as many goals in his 20 minutes for AFC as Vernon has featuring in every Aberdeen game this season

 

All hail king jimmy

Dunfermline were spunking on wages at the time, almost bankrupted them.

[Ke1t]

The thing is, Calderwood has a rep for spending money, but at the same time he finishes where you would expect him to finish... whereas guys like Brown, McGhee, Paterson, and Ebbe massively underperformed with the alleged wages they were spending. Although Paterson can be excused slightly because he was having to get rid of players while slashing the budget, while being a fucking drunk on company time.

 

IF Calderwood was getting the fourth largest budget then he delivered on that budget, if not in the cups then in the league.

 

Seems like your typical Aberdeen manager can deliver 9th, or worse, in the league with the alleged 4th largest budget,

 

Dundee could do worse than Calderwood... ie every other Aberdeen manager in recent years.

[Ke1t]

mid table?

 

why do you think that?

 

for all the fucking IDIOTS slaggin him off, remember where we are now he's left

 

FUCKED

 

Dundee, as has been said, has limited resources. Teams with greater resources like Hibs, United, Celtic, The Rangers (they'll be in the SPL soon enough) Aberdeen, and Hearts, should finish above them. Teams like Inverness, Killie, Motherwell are established and I'd expect them to likely finish above Dundee. Sides like St Mirren and Ross County will be competing with them in the lower reaches. With Calderwood in charge, he has a knack for building team spirit, I'd expect them to punch at or above their weight.

 

So, that's why.

So Calderwood leaving is the reason why we went into a decline ...... How much did he get to spend again ?

That's assuming they have a house for them to have a drive. Gypo cunts! Haha

[Granite City Reds]

We lost a lot of regular members due to the type of football Calderwood played.

 

I found these comments by Killie fans and Ross County fans interesting on Pie and Bovril site:

 

Wanted the Killie job permanently in the summer of Mixu, demanded a ludicrous budget to bring in 'some Dutch lads' and when he was told the real budget he'd be given he stormed away and was quoted as saying "It would be impossible to keep Kilmarnock in the SPL on that budget."

 

Fast forward a few months and Mixu had us playing some of the best football I can remember from a Killie side and leading us to the top six. Far, far away from the 'impossibility' Calderwood had sited the job as.

 

He also told Squirrelhumper (?) that he thought "that Yeremenka wisnae even that gid".

 

Moron.

 

Ross County fan posted this

 

Other than his dreadful style of play, he's an arse of a man too.

 

He alienated almost everyone at County even in his short stay there and there was nobody on our board that wanted to keep him. I won't go into them, but some of the stories I've been told (and by Directors nonetheless) are proper "head in hands" kinda stuff.

 

If Dundee do plump for him, they'll need a strong board to be able to keep him in line and by the sound of it Dundee don't have that.

FUCKED

Who's to say we'd not be here under him had we kept him on? You never know, so aye shut up.

If Caldo got all that money to spend that people speak of, but never spoke of at the time, then how come he was not able to keep the team that finished 3rd together? The likes of Anderson, Hart, Nicholson & Clark moving on. Who were all big players.

 

Calderwoods gone and thats it. Doesn't bother me and I hope we can all be united over our next appointment. But it annoys me how much some of you bad talk him. The fact is he did a good job - especially compared to the closest managers before and after him. He left us in a better position than when he took over, only for the fans favourite for the job Mark McGhee to completely fuck it up.

because they got offered more money doon sooth

 

Anderson got the opportunity to give the EPL a go as well

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

But I thought we had loads of money?

[vanderark14]

we did in comparison to whats being paid now................... which is the point we are making

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

I see. Compared to now when nobody in the SPL has money but everyone did then under Setanta? When Hearts especially, but also Hibs, United and even Inverness at one point were paying fees.

 

So we had at least the 4th highest budget, maybe 5th behind Hibs too, back then but currently have what has been suggested as the 2nd highest?
