Id love to know who else was interviewed when Glass landed the role, they must have been utter gash and even if they were good (like Neil) I am not convinced he would accept the job now, knowing Gnasher thought Glass was the better option in the first instance.

Glass was earmarked as soon as we agreed the “partnership” with Atlanta. Naive to think anything else. To be fair he speaks well, so probably sounded great in his interview. Link to comment
Torry Tosser Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Broon and Glass had a lovers tiff apparently? Link to comment
ThomohawkKid Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 We yet again had enough chances to win the game. Here, don’t get me wrong it was far from perfect and below par - too much pointless passing too often, over reliance on the fullbacks to be high to cross and 3 midfielders all doing the same thing far too often- but with a few tweaks and some better finishing I think we’ll be good. Keep the patience lads. Glass isn’t gonna gel a pretty much whole new team wae a new style overnight. 2 Link to comment
torry_battery_ram Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Only reason I stayed until the end today was because the supporters buses were parked right outside the away end. Defensively a total shambles until Bates came on but game was long gone by then. Motherwell will be 7th or 8th at best and they still had too much for us. Glass needs to get a plan B rapidly as Plan A is being easily torn apart by managers such as McGlynn and Alexander. Link to comment

ABERDEENROWIE1903 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Decent squad on paper but crap on the pitch Why is Ojo playing absolutely hopeless how cannot the management see this If you play shite you get shite results No passion no will to win that sums us up at the moment The time we get are act together the season will be over Link to comment

Sonoftherock Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 6 hours ago, DelMonte said: It’s probably not as bad as I think right now. Control games easily but we are terrible in both boxes. This is quite a good succinct summary of where we're at. We do have a lot of possession - but football matches are won and lost in the penalty boxes. As DelMonte mentions, we're an absolute shambles in both! Particularly defensively! I'm not going over the top though... Glass was the chosen one - he has to be backed. As much as I was hoping for an instant impact, he does need to be given time. At least a season (and three windows) IMO. Link to comment
super_al Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I hate to say it but Glass was part of some very poor Aberdeen teams in the 90's which totally underachieved. I find similarities with our current side. Link to comment

Was it because he’s not physically ready for the physical strains of top flight football or was it because of Motherwell’s persistent fouling? & how does Patterson differ to Ramsay physically? Is he more physically ready than Ramsay? Has he spent this season in the gym getting ‘physically’ ready to avoid injuries rather than playing regularly all season? still not sure where you’re going with this as I genuinely see fk all difference between Ramsay/Patterson ‘physically’ in short. I think you are speaking shite & immediately jumped on Ramsay getting injured to the extent of tagging Thurso & myself is some sort of ‘told you so’ brag. Like it somehow justifies your favour for Patterson. Link to comment

Aye. Was not even remotely a foul. 13 hours ago, Stoneybloke said: Glass getting regularly booked and Russell getting a red card today Not much wonder. The refereeing was absolutely horrific, worst I've seen for a while. Not sure if that is due to the referee being a retard or a cheat. Hard to believe anyone could be that incompetent.

They are having to cover 100 odd yards up and down with absolutely no support, attacking or defensive wise. 433 may be great at Barcelona but its blatantly not working here. Which brings me to the root of our problem, our shite midfield. 3 identical midfielders with no pace and all wanting to do the same things. Things are not improving until the midfield 3 are sorted out and we stop playing ojo. Glass has made some tough calls but bottled starting bates. He needs to change the shape and stop squeezing so many boring centre mids into the team. 1 Link to comment

He needs to change the shape and stop squeezing so many boring centre mids into the team. Never been a huge fan of 3 at the back but with the personnel Glass currently has (no wingers or pace) I think he has to go 3-4-2-1 which means dropping 2 of Ojo, Brown, Ferguson and Longstaff. Hedges return is still 2 weeks away but he slots into one of the two behind Ramirez. And get Ryan Duncan involved, hearing good things about him, and scored a hat trick on Friday night Link to comment
South Stand Seagull Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Took some time to think about the game.. I don’t think all of this is on Glass. As a manager, I’d expect my CHs to defend a simple cross or deal with a long ball. They couldn’t. Motherwell offered nothing going forward except a long ball and a floating cross. The fact both of those turned into goals is a joke. i expected some bumps with our play due to the new style… but a bump is not the ability to defend a ball in the air for Christ sake. 2 Link to comment
Byrne Baby Byrne Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Absolutely shite yesterday. Once again. was so bored under Mcinnes but I can’t be arsed spending money watching that. The boy Longstaff looks absolutely crap and he was just trying to do the same job as all the other hunners of centre mids on the park. Link to comment

That’s where MCRorie for me gets shown up.At the first goal is he tangling with Watt instead of dealing with the long ball?Ball bounces through and gets crossed in for a simple header, and a poor goal to lose.

So in other words it is all on Glass. McCrorie in centre defence is his decision. Unless Dave is doing a Vladimir Romanov. 1 Link to comment
red kelly Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 another international break over, players straining on the leash ? ,not a chance,this is modern day so called professionals at work. just another groundhog opening season with lots of promise and no delivery as usual. even if the dons pick things up they will never ever win a league title at the top of sottish football. the SFA will see to that. maybe try a bit of reverse psychology by giving the players abuse for the full 90 minutes next week.. absolutely nothing to lose , could also speed up our progress towards highland league football. aiberdeen aiberdeen canna kick a jelly bean. as we said in the 60s. i really do want to give a fook you know.
