Excellent Article - Nail On The Head!

[Ke1t]

There's a few decent wordsmiths over on Mad who'd add to this site, Panda being one of them.

 

There are a lot of decent sorts over there.

 

The guy running the site doesn't fall into that category, however.

we will know prett yquickly where his heart and soul lies....if its not 100% with Aberdeen he and Milne will be in for a torrid time.Dod Yule was conspicuous by his absence at the Mchun unveiling...toys out of the pram?Were you expecting the whole board, including his predecessor as manager, to be present at the press conference?To be fair I couldn't pick out Yule in a crowd although barring those with inside information any theories about the inner workings of our board are just guesswork.You seem to be having problems with the quote function Bri...I only typed the last line I'm being credited with...Yule has distanced himself from the appointment...for good reason

Apologies chief, I really wish they'd sort this quote nonsense.Where did Dod distance himself?

Didn't turn up...toys out of the pram because Adams was his choice...I think Dod didn't realise just how big a mess things were,the Broon situation hasn't helped.Yule is no fan of Broon that is clear,the promotion of Broon to the Board will not have sat well with him...as before I think Yule will distance himself/walk pretty soon...this is a Milne production with wee Craigy taking the role as the cabin boy sucking of anyone he needs to,to keep being employed...pretty sordid stuff chief

Is this you passing off your opinion as fact or have you spoken to George Yule and are willing to quote him.

The guy who wrote the STV article is Thom Watt. He seems like a supporter as he has a great grasp of all the facts. An excellent example of good journalism.

Another relevant article, fresh off the presses. Makes some very good points.

In the past decade this couldn’t have been further from the truth. It has not been unrealistic expectations that have done for a succession of managers at Pittodrie. It has been the realistic ones.

110% spot on with this.

There was a lack of spark in the chairman's voice as the questions came. "We have to accept that over the years we have underachieved," Milne stated without fear of contradiction. "This is a club that should be comfortably in the top six every year. We have to see ourselves pushing for Europe every year and getting into semi-finals and cup finals. We want to be a team that's capable of occasionally winning a trophy."

What's his definition of occasionally?

Once every thirty years or so.
