Aberdeen sack Derek McInnes

[eddiec]

Personally DNA is getting cancelled easy enough to reinstate if we get a new manager and as for season ticket that can wait until the last possible day to keep my seat and consider it then depending on what the situation is by then.

I don't actually believe i'll need to withhold anything.

I am now certain McInnes will not be the manager on early bird season ticket deadline. 100%

 

I'm probably the first one to call this? It's happening. No shite about contract lengths, no shite about anything. He won't be manager when they ask me for my £700 or whatever it is.

I knew it your Tord 31 Mcinnes.

This is the best chance Derek had in reaching the Europa League group stages, by finishing 2nd.

 

A competent Aberdeen team would be right up Celtics arse for that position, but unfortunately, we can't sort our shit out. 
 

Before when we finished 2nd it ultimately meant fuck all, just meant we didn't have to play another minnow in a qualifying round. Now, when it actually has something of proper value at the end of it, we're fading away into accepting our lot and  keeping the status quo. 
 

This is the first season McInnes has had to deal with actual adversity in football terms at this club, and he's showing his true worth as a manager. 
 

It is what it is though. Nothing is changing any time soon. 

True worth as a manager.    Yep not worth a shit.

Yeah I think season ticket sales will be at the lowest under Derek this coming season. 

He will never walk on the contract he is on and doubt we can afford to pay him off

So gardening leave or cleaner at Cormack Park it is then

[Stoneybloke]

He seems to have led a charmed life from various elements of the media. Maybe the tide has turned and the "careful what you wish for" brigade are beginning to lose faith. Noticed on Sportscene that a bit of criticism is beginning to creep in.

Yeah to reinstate it you just call them up the lassie on the phone said to me. She didn't seem surprised when I said I was cancelling until McInnes is gone, guess I'm not the first to say that in the last few days.

Tom English is pretty spot on with this piece. 
It was about time there was a balanced piece written on this topic. Even talks of “borderline hapless recruitment”.

Decent article.

About time the MSM were shining a light on him.

Interesting comments he makes about “it’s brought enough of the board to the brink”

What does he know or what has he heard?

 

 

[daytripping]

Docherty shouldn't escape criticism, he's the main trainer, I've heard bad things from his training that I can't repeat on here but it's not just the boss.

We're reactive, we should be on the front foot not playing to counteract teams. 

[Tord31]

Interesting to see an article like that appearing on the bbc

And the source? there are not many candidates - we have hardly any directors

[RUL]

Source is Cormack all day

Cormack tried to sell a new exciting football brand, it hasn't been delivered, it's got worse. When it's obvious sales will fall people will talk.

We need to survive first off, without crowds next season we're going to struggle, with Derek in charge even more so, something has to give. In saying that he has time to turn it round, I don't think he's a bad manager, needs back to basics and to stop worrying about the other team.

He's not going to change now? 

I also think biggest issue is not playing attacking players with any kind of shape. When it was Hayes left, McGinn right and Rooney middle we all knew our style and identity. 

Now Hayes can play right back, left back, centre mid and striker, sometimes in the same half. It's just shambolic

He’s not a bad manager but 8 years is too long for the vast majority of managers.

His time is up. 
We’re stale.

It’s gone past the stage that he can turn it round.

There’s a depressing inevitability about it all.

McHun is completely out of touch with the fans. A lot of the fans rightly hate this toxic hun sympathising team and it would be reflected in the crowds if we got in 

He's done. 
 

He can go and drink from that hun cup 

[daytripping]

McLennan liking a pic of wright in a hun top on social media should see him bombed out of the squad, can you imagine Fergies reaction to something like that, it's a really small thing in the big scheme of things but it just shows the mentality around the team.

Hayes, McGinn, Taylor, all should never have been brought back, do we actually have a scouting department!!

I’m quite excited for the Dons fans reactions when the wankers are liking and congratulating the huns for winning the league.

Far too many hun sympathisers around the club, needs a total clear out. We're a shambles.
