I don't think you realise how BIG a club we really are. Hence O'Neill being so desperate to land the job. Dons fans who don't understand that we are still a high profile club get on my tits.

If I recall, the majority of people on here didn't want McInnes, here's hoping that whoever gets the jobs can do something decent. Link to comment

What did he do that was so great? He did the very bare minimum you'd expect of any manager at our great club. The continued love affair some reds are having with McInnes is crazy. He was average. No more nor less than that. 1 1 Link to comment
pittodriepie83 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Think I’d rather have Uwe Rosler than O’Neill. He’s probably one of the cunts who’s rejected us though. Link to comment

Footballs changed so much since we were a big club. Fuck me when I started going to games regularly we had a striker who’d just won the European cup. Unthinkable now Link to comment
super_al Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Is there any footage of O'Neil playing for Aberdeen? He played 6 games or so. I barely remember him. Link to comment

The continued love affair some reds are having with McInnes is crazy. He was average. No more nor less than that. The utter incompetence from our boards appointments of managers both pre/post McInnes has MASSIVELY exaggerated the true quality of McInnes in the eyes/minds of all simpleton media, pundits & fans. Jimmy Calderwood was as good, if not a slightly better manager than Mcinnes & would easily have achieved all McInnes did if not more in similar advantageous circumstances to what Mcinnes was blessed with.

HaarDon Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 It's unfortunate most of us will be disappointed it seems. As said before, what quality manager would want to manage us after the last 4 guy's failures? Link to comment

HaarDon Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Is anyone at the stage of choosing Lennon over O'Neil? 2 Link to comment
Don_Corleone Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 O'Neill wouldn't exactly excite me, but he has managed at international level and a high level in England, so in terms of experience and level he's operated at he's streets ahead of anyone we've appointed in recent years (not including Warnock who was just here for a laugh). Still hoping it's going to be someone more interesting than him, and not one of the usual suspects or boring names we're always linked with. 2 Link to comment

In the unlikely event it's O'Neill I'd still go to games albeit without much hope of being entertained. If it was Lennon I'd stop going to games. I dare say a lot of other reds would feel the same way. That's why Lennon is an absolute non starter. Even Cormack knows how totally toxic and divisive his appointment would be. Link to comment
