Message From Derek Mcinnes


Recommended Posts


 

I he keeps losing these games we will end up 4th which shouldn't happen considering we've been 2nd and 3rd all season. So much to play for still IMO

He'd be allowed this summer to rebuild in this case. I mean if he loses the same sort of games regularly next season then his time is done.

 

Deserves the summer to get it right.

It's a decent enough generic statement about wanting everyone getting behind the team.

 

But he's probably just shat himself realising we could quite easily end up in 4th place this season and isn't wanting the grief that will come with that.

 

Said after the Motherwell semi, at least he's finally acknowledged that the squad isn't good enough, albeit it's 6 months too late. Hopefully some better calibre players are targeted in summer.

Its a good statement, the right sentiment and I believe McInnes when he talks about what he wants and desires for the club (particularly since this of course aligns with whats good for his career) however intentions are fine but we have to judge on results and those failures he alludes have hit the fans much harder than I think he realises.

 

Rallying cry? - Aye ok, the fans will back the team of course.

 

Realistic expectations, based on what we've seen throughout this season - we'll be inconsistent at best or bow out meekly at worst.

A DISASTER!?

 

We lost our best player and captain along with other key members of the squad. He hasn't replaced them well enough but a disaster!? C'mon now, you're exaggerating.

Maybe I am. But it is a disaster to the extent that we find ourselves in a worse position than last year. A rebuild can take more than one season and it would have been a consolation if we were in a transition period with definite signs of improvement on which we could continue to build. But the only positive development this season is McKenna and maybe Lewis. Everything else is stagnation or deterioration. God knows what sort of team we will have in August.

Lewis has been worse this season so that's nonsense for a start.

 

As it's been said, we lost our best player and others and have managed to just about get to where we were last season and fucked up the cups. Could be a lot worse.

1. Folk on AFC Chat moan that we shit ourselves in big games and have made poor signings.

2. Manager issues an acknowledgement that we've been shite in big games and that his signings haven't been good enough.

3. Folk on AFC Chat moan that manager acknowledges what they were moaning about.

 

This place is mental :laughing:

It's good to take a break sometimes.

The only reason this is being touted as 'rebuild job' is because he spent so much time wanking off In Florida speaking to Sunderland followed by weeks off flirting with the Huns. Then as the season rolls on we find ourselves with seven loan players ffs, knocked out two cups by Motherwell (Motherwell ffs) and now really fighting to stay within the European places.

My thoughts exactly.

 

Quite simply, we shouldn't be in the situation that we find ourselves being in - again - this summer

RAZOR, come on min, McInnes has acknowledged that very point in his statement. ------------------- Mcinnes is 8 months too late in reckonizing it needs sorting out Everybody else knew it needed sorting out months ago but Mcinnes had other things on his mind Sunderland and his beloved Rangers. End of story. There's no way he is going to strengthen this team next season, just look at his signings of the past.

 

 

So he agrees with you and accepts he needs to sort it out.

 

Good statement IMO.

Decent statement I think. A lot to improve on at the moment but still not in the worst position... needs everyone to pull together.

 

Think we have reached a level of negativity that we cant come back from with many fans sadly. Lower crowds next season, McInnes to leave and another Mark McGhee in charge is my prediction.

Good post. You seem to be on the wrong board though. This is the one for utter cunts that hate everything about the club.

I'd be interested to know where this 100,000 has been plucked from tbf Scotty.

 

I'm thinking it's from their Facebook likes, but aye - 100,000 seems well low for a city of almost 220,000. And plenty of folk don't have facebook let alone "like" the Aberdeen F.C Facebook page. Isn't there also a population of about 500,000 people if you also include the shire?

And that may prove the point. If the next few games pan out the way I think they will and we end in 4th place with a squad that is about to be completely overhauled for the second time in a year, that would be a lot worse.

It's not that bad. A big percentage of people in Aberdeen aren't Aberdeen fans. A larger percentage don't even like football. There's also a large migrant population in Aberdeen who couldn't care less about AFC.

Oh yippee.

 

Another successful transfer window of shite old players of his, an ex tim or hun and contract extensions for his favourites that aren't good enough to progress in any competition.

 

Same shite again next season. Same message next summer.

 

Cunt said we'd be back to win the Scottish Cup final this season, and we were aiming for the group stages in Europe. He's delusional. The teams he assembles are fucking shite.

Precisely, and including quite a few folk who are normally (verging on) sensible.
