I've been pilloried on here since then for saying the cunts time was up, and it was then, as it is now, and I've stuck to that 

To be fair min I think you've been pilloried on here for not being a man of your word. You said loads of times that McIness was off to Rangers and if he didn't go then you'd never post on here again. McInness didn't go to Rangers yet you are still on here posting about him. IE, Not a man of your word (full of shite).

[daytripping]

He didn't go to Rangers as they wanted him to quit and walk away, they wanted to avoid paying compensation, he had enough morals to say no.

Could at least of had the spirit to change his name to @The Ericblack4boss

Dick Gordon was on Off the Ball just now and more or less repeated what he said in the P&J. Not his opinion, but just what feared will happen.

Hibs will be loving this.

As I said earlier, I don’t get how sacking him now will benefit us, unless someone available steps right in

Tommy Wright, come on down

Not sure Tommy Wright is the answer. Got a mate who is a st Johnstone fan and their style of football was terrible he says 

[aberdeen1970]

That would be the worry.  That Cormack jumps and takes someone just because they are conveniently available rather than someone with the right mindset for the longer term. 

 

[Ten Caat]

Aye Wright would just be more of the same old. An utterly uninspiring choice though unquestionably also massively less expensive than McInnes.

I was being ironical.

[daytripping]

Steve Clarke is the man we need.

[daytripping]

Bye bye rangers, utter quality.

[Ke1t]

MCinnes has lost the majority of the fans, today we'll find out if he still has the dressing room. 

Will they go down swinging dick, or will they let themselves be steamrolled?

I don't think anyone expects a result, but a lot might depend on the manner our of seemingly inevitable defeat. 

Also, I have nightmares that we're going to swoop for Yogi Hughes...

He must now go on gardening leave.

 

Why go on leave? Can't he just put in for a department transfer to grounds crew? I'd like to see a darker pitch. Over seeding after the season?

Yogi with his best pal Brian Rice as assistant, it would be entertaining but disastrous, stuff made of nightmares - Jim Goodwin for me, hated him as a player

Thing is, can we trust Cormack and Co to pick the correct replacement, be it tomorrow or in the summer?

What qualifications does he have in the football sphere to ensure he gets it right?

Let’s face it, Milne had none and other than arguably his last appointment, fucked up the rest of them.

If he goes I hope it’s someone a bit left field as there is no one available that I know of that excites me personally

There's no doubt we could win, but it would be a massive stretch to say we 'expect' to win. 

Obviously I'd like to see us stomp their thick, Hibee faces into the tattie field they call a pitch.

I think Cormack at least has more than a passing interest in the game.

Maybe Cormack needs to appoint a DoF first of all and let him appoint the new manager?

Or is Steven Gunn the de facto DoF?

Getting a wee bitty flustered with the BBC...

Sounds up for it today though, declaring his love for Aberdeen.... 

[AllyDon]

Notice he didn't answer if he had the full backing of the board. Not happy at being asked the question. 

[Singapore Steve]

loves us more than any fan out there haha

[Ten Caat]

Just been asked if he retains the full support of the board....." This is a pre-match interview not a  post-match one"

continues...."you have been manager 8 years blah blah can you turn this round?"................" I love this club more than any supporter"

[starryfish]

Pointedly didn’t say that he had the backing of the club, only that the team sticks together

Ouch. 

[sooth_stander]

Willie Miller backing him.... 

Lets hear you, Richard and Tom.

English suggesting Cormack is listening to AFC-Chat.

Says sources in the club think there is a willingness to change the manager.
