Can put a fire out, our Neil. Slander him again and I'll see to it the top AFC chat brass have you removed. Thank you. I like Warnock. Im not against him coming in for a few games. I’d enjoy the theatre. I just dont think its worth the cost and the unnecessary media spotlight because i dont think theres that big a fire to put out to secure top 6 and a decent cup run.

BrisDon Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Warnock would be entertaining but not really sure what is achieved by a short term appointment unless we need time to weigh up a long term appointment. We’re not safe in the league yet but not in imminent danger as things currently stand. Surely the club has had ample time since Goodwin was sacked to weigh up potential candidates. Lennon - fuck no. Neil - would be similar to the McInnes appointment. Hasn’t set the world on fire in his recent jobs but has managed at a high level and was surprised that he’s only 42. But he’d only be coming to us because his stock has fallen in England. Link to comment

I wouldn’t underestimate the shit that we are in. Other than Livingston, I genuinely wouldn’t fancy our chances beating any other team in the league at the moment. Last night was beyond shite.

What's this "decent cup run" I keep hearing from abdy? I want to win the fucking thing. Nothing else is satisfactory. Another wasted trip to Hampden doesn't do anything for me with how I view a manager. 34 years. Too long. 1 2 Link to comment
Mouzer Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Alex Neil is a decent option. He has plenty experience in England, not been fantastic but with a point to prove and decent funds I think he could do very well, being free will also appeal to Cormack. Similar appointment to McInnes but with more pedigree. Link to comment

Exactly Decent cup run chat is for meagre budget clubs. folk still think us reaching LC final was ‘decent’ when it fkn wasn’t because it was piss easy then lucky in semi & failed to win it so meant absolutely Fk all. Wish Hibs had put us out & we would have gotten rid of Robson long before today Link to comment

Simply Red Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Neil’s the best option ive heard so far. Tbh, id hope the board were focusing fully on finding a decent permanent boss rather than splitting hairs over the interim man. I wouldnt imagine Neil would be short of offers both sides of the border. Hopefully Cormack appreciates this when hes weighing up his options. (ie.doesnt dither for ages and Neil goes elsewhere and we end up with some clown) Still hard to believe McInnes was replaced by a total rookie unknown quantity. Link to comment

Willo flood Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I always forget how retarded some people are until it’s comes round to Aberdeen needing a new manager Just seen Tyrone Smith say that we should be going for either: A manager who just got the boot from Ross County A manager who has failed at inferior clubs in Hibs and United And the Neil Lennon shout speaks for itself Link to comment

Helmet Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 I still think we should be looking abroad- we really need a change from the Scottish management barrel of shite. Look across the Premiership and the standards of coaching and tactics are fairly rubbish tbh. Far too many teams doing what we have and appointing ex players with very little experience or quality as a manager and just thinking that’s ok. 2 Link to comment

Swedish & Norwegian leagues will have a few good coaches. Similar standards of league, not too dissimilar styles of play, it’s not like a Spaniard coming in trying to implement tika taka for example. The Elfsborg coach Jimmy Thelin being one of example. 1 1 Link to comment

He sounds good. Troll the net for all the managers that have some track record. Ask them if they'd be interested. Go and watch their team. If you want to do that for, say, 10 managers on the continent then its a strong argument for a caretaker appointment like Warnock Link to comment
