Willo flood Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Can we please just shut the fuck up about McInnes 1 1 1 Link to comment
Johnnyred1 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Wonder if it would be good if they already had the new manager in line for next season and have told them to observe and learn from watching the players playing now, whilst scouting themselves for new players. No pressure for this season and no excuses for the start of next. Link to comment

If McInnes had done the job he did with us at 1 of the EDI clubs then what he's done at Killie then for sure his name wud be top of most folks lists on here. I'm all for getting an upgrade on McInnes but let's face it, it ain't happening so have him back in a heartbeat. For those who scorn and say wise the feck up, tell me of sumbdy realistically better........ 1 1 Link to comment

McInnes likes full control of “the football operation”, which he wouldn’t have. That’s why I don’t think we’ll get a manager of any substance. That and the fact we have idiots on the “FMB” who are clueless & unfit to be in that position. An FMB I might add that is 100% unnecessary IF you have a PROPER DoF in charge, not a hard working admin guy. I don’t like the club right now. Shambolically ran 2 Link to comment
Byrne Baby Byrne Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Aye you look when things started to go downhill under McInnes. It was when Cormack came in. weird signings like 800,000 for Hernandez. then you look at glass, Goodwin, robson. big fees for Gueye, Morris, Richardson etc. You have to wonder if Cormack has realised yet… “it’s not you, it’s me” Link to comment

Dynamo Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 McInnes definitely found whatever it was that he was missing in his last few seasons with us. It was good for him. We've just made terrible appointments since. Not looking forward to us getting out arse handed to us next week. Link to comment

Maybe there's something in giving him full control - except, he has to accept our scouting network Link to comment

Yeah but he only wanted out because cormack was an interfering clown He wouldn't have been sat in the directors box recently if he was 100% against coming back Link to comment

Roberto Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Just now, Millertime said: Yeah but he only wanted out because cormack was an interfering clown He wouldn't have been sat in the directors box recently if he was 100% against coming back I'd wager that's more to do with his friendship with Milne and the fact Kilmarnock play Aberdeen soon... And I'm sure you probably know that deep down also. 1 Link to comment

He is a good manager and I think we played the best football I've seen for many years under him but after that, he was too reliant on players who played for him previously and it wasn't working for us (however it is working at Killie).

You can absolutely forget him coming back as much as right now we probably need him. Cormack and the club want to scout and buy more players from overseas. McInnes won't do that. He'd get rid of our current HoR and bring fucking Russ Richardson back. As somebody else said, he wants full autonomy of how the Football Department is run. He won't have that here as Cormack won't allow it. He didn't allow it when he took charge back in 2019 or whenever it was. He won't allow it now. Link to comment

Unfortunately we had too many wage thieves at Aberdeen. Players such as Marley Watkins, Greg Stewart, Gary Mackay-Steven proved at other clubs they were very good players. Many other players have also come to Aberdeen and struggled. Is the wage structure and the culture at the club too comfortable? Link to comment

Johnnyred1 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Why on earth would McInnes want to come to a club where anything other than 3rd is seen as failure. He is at a club that is happy to stay in the league with minimal pressure or fuss. Move the feck on. He is yesterday's man as far as this club is concerned. 1 Link to comment

I have to say, we would probably be in a much better position with McInnes. Bringing in Warnock goes to show how much of an ego Cormack has. Pointless appointment and all about posturing.

You need to rebuild at a club like Aberdeen and he did it very well over 8 seasons. you look at United but when they had to replace gms, Armstrong, Russell, Robertson etc they were shite. Hibs had a brilliant side with McGinn, mcgeouch etc under Lennon but turned shite. we stayed up there the whole time. Always, as a minimum, on the coattails of 3rd if we were there or higher. we peaked in 16/17 then lost Hayes, Jack, Taylor, McGinn (for a bit) but still finished the following season in 2nd above some strong sides. Qualifying for Europe 8 times in a row is unheard of for any team in Scotland outside the main 2. 4 Link to comment

I do worry the quality of manager that will come to a club like ours where all matters on and off the field seems totally dictated by Cormack. Link to comment

Had McInnes stayed there's no new recruitment strategy which means there's no Miovski, Ramadani, Duk and Clarkson. How is Warnock a pointless appointment? Who should we have hired instead?
