MainStandDon Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Darren Ferguson has officially agreed terms. Peterborough gave permission to speak to him but it will be announced once compensation has been agreed, which won’t be an issue. Most likely agreed and announced Monday now. 1 1 Link to comment

Peterborough are in the Play offs, sitting in fourth and some predict they will rise up the table to get automatic promotion to the Championship. They are also in the Bristol Street Motors Trophy Final at Wembley in about two weeks time Would he really give that up to come to Aberdeen, with where we are currently sitting in the league? I doubt it... Link to comment

RAZOR Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Been looking for 10 years 🤣 Fair enough if you don't like it, don't read it. But looking in for 10 years and still claiming to hate it. Now that's speical mode activated. 1 7 Link to comment
starryfish Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Richard Gordon says the new Aberdeen manager must have knowledge of Scottish football. Much like Jim Goodwin for example of whom I seem to recall Gordon saying he had no doubt would be a great success at Pittodrie Link to comment
Sheeptastic Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 It should be Jacob Friis. Did a good job at Viborg and is now assistant manager to Jess Thorup (who I think we've approached previously) at Augsburg. Link to comment

So because we're not 1 of the cheeks we have to conform with the Largs merry-go-round while they can appoint an overseas manager and it's hailed as a "great appointment". Just shite/lazy journalism 6 Link to comment
aberdeen1970 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Aye. There are 11 other teams and most of them pretty much play the same way. You'd be able to watch all the other teams within 2 or 3 weeks of being in the job. Any manager with the slightest gumption would 'get' Scottish football pretty quickly, it's a tiny goldfish bowl 3 Link to comment

Just shite/lazy journalism Agreed. I can see why some think an overseas appointment is more of a risk in our current situation given there's more of an unknown about it and if we get it wrong we could go down. But of the candidates that have knowledge of Scottish football (Lennon,Neil, Robinson) two of those for me look very short-termist. I could just about get on board with Neil. No matter where they come from what we need is someone who can come in and galvanise a club, not just the squad - someone with a track record of taking a team from the bottom to competing at the top - regardless of where they arrive from. 1 Link to comment

I hate these journo pricks with their insular horseshit about needing a Scottish buddy to manage unless its the uglies then its magical having a non-Scot. Ugh. Christ I hate the media there...

BaaBaaRedSheep Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 We're not hearing any REAL rumours with regard the next manager because there is nothing to report meantime. The FMB's main man is reportedly sunning himself in the Cayman Islands, with his normal egotistic, arrogant attitude, hoping that Leven manages a result against County so that it brings some more time for Cormack to identify a manager who's foolish enough to work with his ways. The external review and the "appointment well advanced" comments are both smokescreens. The club are pulling our plonkers, again, and it would appear that the appointment we crave ain't happening anytime soon. Link to comment
