Fantastic 👍👍 Tbf we were third at the world cup break.Anyway this season is only a quarter way in.Ps pretty doubtful we would have got third under Goodwin. Link to comment

Yeah well we have also taken in £3m by selling Mcrorie and Ramadani unfortunately plus around £5 m from Europe.How wisely we have spent on our recruitment in some cases is still open for debate.Not all bad though.

thegodfuzzy Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 He needs the consistency noo. Both in our tactics and results. He needs to quit the hoofy fitba. I'm behind him. Have been since his appointment, but if he wants to get folk off his back he's gonna need to do more of what we did at the Steelmen. We're more than capable of playing ball on deck,and hit it direct to mix up. I think he's been refreshing in his approach in many ways and harks back to a more fitba man as a manager. He took no shite as a player and he's bringing that. There's nae gloss with him and hopefully he can bring just as much snarl to the team as he had as a player. Rugby Park was the opposite. I'm with ye @ERNIE just hope he can get more confidence from others as we go. He's had little so far and some of that is warrented. Others been way beyond the pale. Tomorrow is huge for him and the club as a whole. Hibs are hurting a bit,so dangerous. If he plays the fitba on deck,buys into that more,he ticks all that the club wanted, attacking fitba,entertain and young(ish) coach...and let's hope he can go on and win at least one trophy in his time. 1 Link to comment

scottymc Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 Get Robson to fuck. Will take anyone who’s managed a team for longer than 2 mins that’s not an u18 coach. Fuck me it’s Aberdeen FC we are talking about here 1 Link to comment
sooth_stander Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 See when Glass got appointed, who else got interviewed? Ditto Goodwin? Ditto Robson? Were anybody else actually interviewed? I know, the last time, we approached a few blokes like Wilder and the Spaniard and got rebuffed but there is clearly something amiss with our managerial recruitment prawcess Link to comment

Fuck knows about Goodwin. I remember Scott Burns said we'd approached Knutsen and he told us to bike but i suspect that was leaked by the club to try and appease fans. Seem to remember it came down to Goodwin or Jack Ross in the end. Wilder was interested. We fucked about though. Dunno about Rodriguez. Don't ever remember seeing anything about him turning us down. Either way, the clubs a fucking shambles. I give Cormack a fucking tough time but Gunn needs to be taking a very large portion of the blame aswell. All of these 3 nanagers have worked under him. He's becoming as big a common denominator as Cormack. Root and branch clear out required. Press reset. Link to comment

Depends how quickly the dressing room unravels. When you're playing shit football and your most effective tactic is 'Riding Your Luck' you would have to think morale is going to plummet and results are going to reflect that. The players themselves are going to have something to say on and off the pitch. He may seem to be in a safe position with the backing of the Board/Cormack/FMB, but that can change quickly. Couple more defeats in the next couple of weeks and I'd expect the "We've got to turn things around for the manager" style quotes to come out from the players. We all know the script. Link to comment

He runs the joint when Cormack is in absentia or even when he’s in the UK. Need to see more leadership from him. He’s been here long enough to surely notice that, whilst our structure might be right, the bums on the seats aren’t. Plus, the recruitment strategy needs to be clearly outlined and answers given to why half a dozen players have come in and seen zero minutes or near as damn it Link to comment

I'm not sure if it actually happened or not as he took the Portsmouth job something like 4 days or so before we appointed Glass. I don't think it would have mattered anyway. Gnasher was determined to appoint Glass no matter what Link to comment

I just want a competent manager for a change. Someone who can come in and knows straight away that Hayes is done, that McKenzie is Tom Kite, that Clarkson is wasted when the ball is flying past him from back to front. We have some decent players, this cunt just doesn't know what yo do with them and he seems like a bit of an arsehole. 2 Link to comment
