I'd be interesting to see your post on that. I think you'll find that I had said he immediately improved them last season but had started poorly this season. If you're going to be the type of twat that posts allegations, at least quote them so everyone can see how wrong you are Here's my post from almost 2 months ago On 10/16/2021 at 3:01 PM, afc1903mad said: Immediately much better. His placing sat Preston were (in order), 7th, 14th, 9th, 16th. When he left Preston he had them in 16th with 8 games to go. His assistant Frankie McAvoy (assistant at Hamilton, Norwich and Preston) then won 5 out of the 8 to raise them to 13th gaining 17 points out of 24 (so only one loss) This season, they started poorly, losing their opening 3 games, before going on a 7 match unbeaten run, although mainly draws (2 wins, 5 draws) before losing to QPR. They’re in a pack though where their only 2 wins short of 7th place. Is Frankie the man for them? Who knows and who cares. You’re just deflecting from how Preston regressed over the 4 years Alex Neil was there I'm getting really tired and bored of your lame trolling now. Please get a grip Link to comment

Turns out they weren't interested in Davidson. Must have had someone lined up already. Aye, last year was an impossible act to follow. Especially after losing their 2 most influential players. McCann probably the biggest loss of all. Link to comment

You post prolifically on every football thread, often in disagreement with other posters' opinions. It works both ways. Folk disagree with me all the time. And often by doing so they change my opinion on things as I can then see it from another perspective. Link to comment
muttonhumper Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 4 hours ago, Ten Caat said: They're nearly the worst funded team in the Championship, the bigger name managers available probably won't be too interested. Even so, the pay there would be a significant rise on what Davidson is earning right now. And he's proven he can work miracles with an extremely limited playing budget. Albeit this season hasn't turned out anything like as well as last season, although in mitigation he has had his 2 best players from then sold and his first choice striker left under freedom of contract. Preston won't expect miracles from whoever they appoint. All they want is for their manager to keep them safe from relegation each year. But they do seem to be very quick to pull the trigger if they're in any way at risk of taking the tumble in mid-season. Davidson spent the longest time in his career as a player with Preston and it seems he's still quite fondly remembered there. A quick look at a couple of their fansites show that whilst he's not their first choice for the job (majority want Blackpool's manager but that's the equivalent in that part of the world of Hearts having a vacancy and pinching the incumbent Hibs manager so unlikely) he's near the top of their wishlist. I'd be surprised if he isn't at least interviewed I like your posts. They seem reasoned and believable, I couldnae go onywie near a 2nd paragraph on that subject. Glad you did. I like it. Informative. I am just back from an 11 pinter* lunchtime tho'. Soz you guys who frown upon this. *Small 500ml San Miguel to night cap. Dinna grief me guys. I've had a cunting couple o days xxx.

The pulling power of Edinburgh over Aberdeen is laughable too, money talks and players go where the cash is, see Ojo for example. Link to comment

Byrne Baby Byrne Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Don't think he'd be a revelation but he'd do very solid. Certainly wouldn't make things easier for Aberdeen if Hibs were at the level Aberdeen were generally at for 8 years. Read an interview with Porteous yesterday and he said "We don't just want to be a cup team. We want to be a team securing third or fourth place every year." No cups and securing a top 4 slot every year??? I know just the man!! 1 Link to comment

aberdeen1970 Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 I'd expect McInnes to do a decent job at Hibs. He's a competent manager at our level, anything else is rewriting history. Link to comment
Yorston Vasey Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Hibs have previous for going for leftfield lower league English appointments, the likes of Paul Cook and Simon Grayson will be way ahead of McInnes on their shortlist. Link to comment
