That would be a blow to his ego, 

However a job that is probably befitting of his ability and talent,. Will get them up the league,  could just challenge for play offs with a following wind, 

Obviously the other club that plays in black and white stripes ( Newcastle) have missed the boat

Would it be a blow to him.

Fair sized club and fanbase,might like the idea of it all,getting them up to Premier....Want happen though I'd doubt.

For what he's likely to earn, he's not going to be interested. 

Dunfermline isn't far enough away from his Renfrewshire home that it's worthwhile renting a flat in the area. But it's adding over an hour's journey each way to his working day. And of course, if he didn't get them promotion next season (or prevent relegation this season) he'd be considered a failure and then his dreams of ever managing down south again would go completely up in smoke.

For now its only the Edinburgh clubs that will interest him up here. Even United and St J don't pay enough despite them having a bit of sentimental value having played for or managed them. But if he's not found a job down south in a year to 18 months time they'll probably become more appealing as will Motherwell and St Mirren and a promoted Killie......when it finally dawns on him there really isn't much interest in his services from the type of clubs he feels there should be from

McInnes isn’t at all rated. He done a mediocre job with us and Milne made him out to be a messiah. He actually gave up as manager of Aberdeen which was a terrible attitude to have and I reckon it didn’t go unnoticed by clubs. 
He won’t ever get a better job than being manager of the Dons….and now he definitely knows it.

I disagree StJohnstone would have him back Steve Brown still rates him,  Dundee United would interest him but the yank in charge thier is pals with Cormack as is Hibs chairman so that won't be in his favour, 

St Johnstone, Hearts , Dundee and Scotland are the only top level jobs I'd give him a chance of

Looking forward to reading a very similar version of this on page 861.
