League champions with 100+ goals next season 

[WesthillWanderersFC]

Just need to sign some strikers for him to coach now 

[Crossbow]

I may have to revise my opinion on DC but let’s see the squad for next year. 

[aberdeen1970]

Great stuff.  Good to get a coach who is highly thought of. 

He's got a totally clean slate to work with. Hopefully he's got a few strikers lined up to join the revolution. 

[jamiesd]

This is great stuff. COYR

[Tord31]

It is mighty impressive from Glass attracting Brown and Russell as his assistants. 

[The Buzzard]

Really excited by this move. 

[RUL]

Think our attacking play has been so aimless that getting someone involved who's coached at that level is bound to improve our attacking play. 

[Ramandu]

Hope he reinstates the skovdahl corner routine where our players got together like a train before splitting off in different directions.

[fine-n-dandy]

So, wonder if him & Glass with their apparent new brand of  attacking football could help the likes of Anderson with a decent strike partner more than the McInnes strategy did? ??

until then I will continually stick by my view that McInnes shafted him & certainly stalled his progress because he is a shite manager for youth. The amount of journeymen he signs is added testament to that

[fine-n-dandy]

I am a little disappointed in that Russel does look a bit like Ash Taylor.

On the other hand, maybe we can stick him on pretending to be him for rest of season ?

Hopefully not blowing our wad on too many chiefs though

Aye?  You've never mentioned? Can you elaborate?

Allen Russell:

“I look forward to working with Stephen, Scott and the rest of the coaching staff and players to move the Club to the next level.”

Great stuff.

[BitWait]

He will know good and upcoming strikers from down south , the ones he likes to work with and hopefully can attract them to the club. Hopefully he sees something in Anderson and can improve his play and goals tally.

[Poodler]

Cliche time

a real statement of intent.

 

excellent business. It’s all been positive off the park, these last few weeks. 
 

I’ll be head first into a season ticket when they’re announced although I’m not committing to staying for a full half yet. 
 

up I dons 

[spamspamspam]

So Aberdeen have signed the Celtic captain and the England striking coach.

It's like the first week in a slightly tweeked game of fitba manager. 

 

[eddiec]

I hear Aguero is looking for a new club maybe Russell could influence him to see out his career at the Famous 

[redstrummer]

Good to see DC back Glass with the who he wants to bring in immediately . Exciting summer ahead on the player recruitment , should certainly see a boost in season tickets sales if we get some guarantee fans will be permitted back in 

[1983]

One thing I think will be hugely important in Glass and Russell being effective will be Scott Brown giving the naysayers confidence that he believes in it. Glass and Russell talk a good game, but the coaching and training will need to be adopted without ridicule. The sort of ridicule that we in Scotland revel in - new ideas, technology, nutrition, science, double sessions, moisturiser.

I can see Barry Robson taking the piss out of Russell because he’s not played at a high level.

Is that the limit of your ambition? 

To find a partner for Anderson? 

Or should we be looking at getting strikers that are a cut above? 

[Dynamo]

Here we go, 10 in a row

[manboobs109]

He's a handsome bastard. Did I read somewhere he played for Airdrie? Absolutely no chance someone who looks like that has even been near Airdrie.

Totally agree with above sentiment.  What I like most is the team who were identified have been achieved.   Onwards and upwards. 

[strachanmcgheegoal]

All I want to know is can I now sit in the RDS at ten to three with a hot drink in relative safety or will it still be the Nescafe explosion roulette it has been for the last 10 years.
