donswin1983 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 The whole saga is a joke. We’re a joke as a club just now. Consultants carrying out reviews at massive cost, to probably affirm what we already know. If we don’t come up with a new, exotic manager, and instead appoint a Lennon type, it makes an even bigger mockery of consultancy spend. The longer it ticks on the less time the new boss has time to evaluate what he’s got and plan and execute what he needs to get in the summer, which is a lot, based on the current shit show. A truly shite state of affairs with an utter ballon at the helm of it. Link to comment
Dandys1983 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 There only a small minority in here that might have small pieces of inside info on what's going on the now and I'm definitely not one of them, but it don't help when posters constantly make up stuff which gets others more and more riled up day after day, I've got to the stage that what will be will be, no point in pissing my pants over it all. The players need to take a long hard look at themselves I don't think there is one player I'd be worried about loosing in the summer excluding Miovski (who will be away anyway) don't think I can actually think of a summer where I've felt like that.🤔 I think Cormack Burrows and Gunn also need to also take a long hard look at themselves too, I actually wish they didn't post on twitter, keep things to an official path as now you have fans that want a daily update on what the players are getting for lunch and injury tactics updates, 🫣🤣 just don't think Twitter is the place for that, not really a top 100 club thing! Heard a rumour or two that Burrows will leave in the summer? Could that be a new role for Gunn? God knows probably another made up story. 🙄 1 Link to comment

That will put off some prospective managers. Then of course, they have to talk to our DoF, which is another separate issue. Agree it’s like talking to laurel and Hardy. And they’ve been dead for years. !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment

Top (Gunn 3 ) is in the stages of being made, band him to one of Tom Cruises missiles under his fighter plane. Then launch it at Cormack. Link to comment

That would show them. Of course not, do people who work in say banks agree with decisions made by top bosses , no. Same for every job. They are paid to play football. It’s simple they should just do their jobs! Footballers should get loss deduction just like win bonuses. The food banks would be over run with Aberdeen players then if that happened. Link to comment

Or could be no one wants to come in and fix the cluster shit that is AFC. Throw in the new super stadium that was is getting built at the beach that was a fat porkie. 1 Link to comment

thegodfuzzy Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 I think they just need to come out and say Leven for season and we'll get new guy in by pre season. If they cannae get who they want the noo,better off stabilising in meantime Link to comment
Willo flood Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 No point in another update. All that’s going to be said is that we are very very excruciatingly close to getting a new manager. When is reality we aren’t Link to comment

Helmet Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Until we appoint someone there’s nothing to update and of course until then Leven continues in charge, that doesn’t need an announcement either. 1 Link to comment

If they cannae get who they want the noo,better off stabilising in meantime I don't think that's an acceptable solution or plan. The new management team will need as much time as possible to evaluate and make sweeping changes. They need to identify the players they want and who they want off the books. The club and the squad is an absolute shambles. 1 Link to comment

Helmet Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 People are just going to need to keep their cool. Yes it’s not a good situation, but the people who are moaning to each other every 5 mins about how shit everything is and that the club is a shambles because they haven’t given them an update and they don’t know what’s happening are only making it worse for themselves 3 Link to comment

Makes complete sense - there is a risk we could go down that changes everything. The Board is making the best of the situation taking long term requirements into account. Leven is quite capable of seeing us through to the end of the season if necessary. But the preference would be to get the new guy in once we are safe and he can start to get to know the club. I don't know why so many people are flapping. Calm down. Link to comment

IF we get Thelin, great, he looks like a capable manager but our squad is dreadful for what he would want, his philosophy and methods would require at least 6 months to even get off the ground, we'd also need to make a lot of signings and I would suggest improving on the medical and fitness department at the club as his style of play and training will see a lot of injuries. 1 Link to comment

Totally agree. But no amount of announcements from the club can solve these problems. We need to see action from them, not talk. Link to comment

How many of yesterdays starting eleven would fit in with the way Thelin wants to play? Does he change his ways or do we change the players again? Link to comment
