Big Hat Logan Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 44 minutes ago, zeroisgod76 said: Not lying. Was told this by someone who owns a company that invests a significant 6 figure sum with AFC every year and was taken out for dinner by Cormack on Thirsday night as his company was seriously considering a huge reduction in their investment next year as they’re unhappy with the state of the club at the moment. Was told that O’Neill was already confirmed for next season, all compensation and terms had been agreed. The club expected Warnock to stay on until end of season but once he told them he was leaving no matter the result yesterday they’re now trying to get O’Neill to come in sooner. Hes indicated he wants to stay with Northern Ireland for their friendlies at the end of this month but will likely join after them. Also going to be a major restructuring at board level as a result of the report that’s been done. Someone who most of us don’t believe should be in such an important position won’t be in that position soon. Your mates taking the absolute piss out of you, mong. Link to comment

Then this club sponsor told everyone? Makes sense. I know, unbelievable isn’t it? Everyone including Cormack knows this guy can’t keep his trap shut after a day drinking. Link to comment

ahead on alphabet Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 10 minutes ago, BaaBaaRedSheep said: Warnock has caught Cormack off guard with his departure and, whilst a favoured candidate may have been sounded out, there is no guarantee that an appointment is pending. Yet another mess that Cormack has contrived to create. That mess could only be hiring the old cunt in the first place then. Confounded, if that's the right word, by him walking away. The fact of having a favoured candidate sounded out by now would be completely normal and correct, as that's what Cormack is meant to be doing. I am starting to wonder whether Warnock was really hoping for a permanent job at the end of this and could see there was absolutely no chance of getting it. Or at least he'd feel undermined if it was leaked out who was coming in. He's got better things to do anyway than waste his time in a league he can't win in, he's got a tour to prepare for.

G man Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 51 minutes ago, Big Hat Logan said: Your mates taking the absolute piss out of you, mong. O’Neill is on a massive contract with Northern Ireland until 2028. Why would he want to be bought out of that contract and why would Aberdeen want to pay a huge fee for him? Would be very strange if he give up 4 years of a contract and a salary above what l would assume Aberdeen would be able to pay to come to a club who are in a relegation fight. 2 Link to comment
jamiesd Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 O’Neill would be a shocking appointment. Was absolutely awful at Stoke Link to comment
RedRevolution Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 1 hour ago, Dons21 said: Starting to think this is could well be the case. If you saw the red tv interview last week it reveals a lot. Warnock got asked about being under pressure and what he thought about Neil Lennon saying he was ready to step in immediately. The penny dropped at that moment that the directors were having discussions about bringing somebody in sooner than the end of the season because we were in trouble. Conversations followed and Warnock found out that there were conversations being held along those lines. The rest is history. 1 Link to comment

madjockmcferson Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Occums razor. they brought warnock in to get them to the end of the season. warnock quickly realized the squad needed a bigger overhaul than everyone thought (he isn’t wrong, I’ve been shocked by how bad they’ve been) and that meant they had to get the new guy in sooner in order to get the right players on. i think sometimes we look for something Machiavellian when the real reason is often the simplest reason Link to comment

No mark programme/channel that has always hated AFC. Wear it as a badge of honour that we still rankle them and their pundits.

I wouldn't be surprised if the FMB were just making frantic phonecalls this afternoon offering the job to everyone. Make it stop.
