That was fairly obvious I thought!

[ericblack4boss]

aye but CB worded it as if HE had decided to retire rather than the decision made for him, also Yule states we are at pittodrie for the next 5 years at least.

[steems]

He was not pushed very hard if he is now a non-executive director.

I'm not going to buy it now, you've spoiled it.

 

Probably going to cost some jobs at the journals.....

Brown has a wealth of knowledge and respect in the game, hes perfect for AFC in the roll he is now in

The same walking database when he was manager. An out of date database..

Spring? Swiss? Forward? Toilet?

Those puns were awful you sausage.

[gla5gowdon]

Not heard a peep from Brown since he moved.

 

He'll have moved there to finish up his contract and then never be seen again probably.

[BillyStarkDivinHeeder]

Will buy on the way home for a read. Christ, it's been a while since I bought a P&J.

 

Fancy a pint in the Caledon after your work?

[ChutneyLove]

Sorry BSDH, just got your message now. Maybe later in the week.

[Ke1t]

Brown was a terrible manager and will continue to be a useless drain on already meagre resources.

 

I don't care how fucking respected he is.

[ChutneyLove]

If he still thinks Ficky Roaster is a fitba player he needs removing from any type of role at Pittodrie.

[King Street Loon]

 

I have on about how awesome Ricky santa hat Foster is.

Could have been worse he could have said something positive about Rangers/The Rangers...

 

 

Who is he talking about?

Sorry, but there's no place at our club for this doddery old fool if he's going to speak about current Sevco players and Sevco as a club in such glowing terms.

Stupid old fuck.

[Dom Sullivan]

Sorry, but there's no place at our club for this doddery old fool if he's going to speak about current Sevco players and Sevco as a club in such glowing terms.

Stupid old fuck.

Absolutely spot on KSL.

Broon needs to STFU

[RUL]

Brown needs fired if he thinks foster is captain material, he's a cunt

[Kilkito]

Sorry, but there's no place at our club for this doddery old fool if he's going to speak about current Sevco players and Sevco as a club in such glowing terms.

Stupid old fuck.

 

Totally agree, he's a complete waste of a wage, and what exactly is the point of talking about that wank and the wanky mob, why do any of our employees ever talk about them, if they get asked they should just say I'm not interested in talking about those Dicks

[Huntlysheep]

Broon is total arsehole i said it fae day 1. I actually hated Broon & that hasn't changed.

Story plucked from Supporters Trust latest newsletter after meeting with Yule two weeks ago.

[fine-n-dandy]

ABERDEEN vice-chairman George Yule has demanded Derek McInnes delivers success this season – and he’s convinced the manager can meet his lofty ambitions.

Last season Yule stated the Dons should be pushing Celtic all the way to the title. He is equally bullish about this term and although he accepts a championship charge is unlikely he insists failure is not an option.

Aberdeen have not finished in the top six for four seasons and are without a trophy in 18 years. And Yule said: “Make no mistake, the manager and the players will be under pressure when the season starts as this is a results business.

“I’ve no doubts Derek will do it. He has shown he is a shrewd operator. Tough decisions have been taken when needed, which has led to people leaving the club, and the manager has our support in making those decisions.

“We’re not proud of the fact we have gone through several managers but it’s history. What we are doing now is trying to support our manager and building for the future.

“Competing for trophies, attracting better players and playing in Europe are three target areas and in Derek I am confident we have a man who can deliver those targets.

“The supporters and the board at this club expect Aberdeen to be challenging every day from now on in. If I thought this club could not do that I would not be here.

McInnes is casting an eye over keeper Elliot Parish at the Dons’ training camp at Warwick University.

The manager wants a rival for No.1 Jamie Langfield and is also keeping tabs on ex-Dundee United keeper Dusan Pernis.

The 28-year-old Slovak, who spent two seasons at Tannadice until 2012, is a free agent after a season in Poland with Pogon Szczecin but has also attracted interest from Ipswich.

McInnes said: “I am looking for a goalkeeper who can come in and challenge Jamie Langfield. I want competition all over the pitch.”

 

 

 

 

 

Whilst I do agree with everything Yule is saying, I think he's adding extra pressure on the guy even though (yet again) the new manager is having to work on a reduced budget.

Aberdeen at very least should be up competing for cups at top few positions in league, that's a given but McInnes cannot be expected to jump straight into that position at first time of asking & especially on a reduced budget from season past. I believe McInnes is very capable of doing it & hope he does but it will not be a massive failure if he only improves us QUITE noticeably.

 

Yule needs to back McInnes with a similar budget to that of Craig Brown to expect instant success & he certainly needs to give him funds to replace the weakest link of all in the side (we all know who that is).

Yes so far I am very happy with what McInnes has done with the little funds available to him & barring injuries I truly believe he will have improved us a great deal but just think what he could be doing for us with the budget that had been available to Broon?

 

One thing is sure & that is if McInnes does/has improved us as much as we hope on this reduced budget, then as of next season (or even in Jan depending on where we are & what we're challenging for) he should be given an increased budget to at least match the faith shown/given to Broon.

 

Good luck McInnes. You will need it (especially regarding injuries) but so far you are certainly making all the right noises & doing all the right things.

 

Well you are still dragging your feet regarding a decent keeper but I know you know it needs sorting, so will trust in you that it will be dealt with soon enough

George Yule is full of shit.

The whole interview reads a bit differently.

 

He's asking for steady progress, 3rd minimum this season. Would love a cup/cup final but most importantly he wants to see progress both on and off the pitch.

[granite sheep]

No Aberdeen manager in recent memory has made proper use out of whatever funds have been made available to them, so righting that particular wrong should be a priority.

 

The rest will follow after that.

:thumbsup1:

 

Nail on head, there have been some utter stinkers signed over the last decade, I still can't believe we paid money for Tommy Wright FFS. Actually, we've signed many an utterly shite player and fallen behind much smaller clubs in the SPL since Wiggy took over fae the Donalds. Simply throwing money at a problem does not solve it. Properly using that money is how you do it. And that's something that's been severely lacking at AFC for years.
