Think he’s been out of work since leaving the Japanese club he was at in January. He doesn’t seem to hang about clubs long. Averages 1 year. If the FMB ever take their head out the sand, I think they’ll go for an experienced manager & probably British. Link to comment
Willo flood Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Having a better CV then “7th place with St Mirren” would be a good start considering that’s the biggest achievement of our last 3 managers before coming to us. Link to comment

I'd rather it was but I have a feeling they will look elsewhere this time, if they haven't already 👀 Don’t usually want a foreign manager cause stuck in their way shite British players shit themselves at being asked to do nothing different. But with the amount of foreigners we have at the moment might be interesting to see. Link to comment

So does that mean the win & draw v Huns this season are indeed pretty much the only things the Robson supporters have left to cling to? That & a smash n grab robbery of Hibs in a semi? Why have you also only selected a pool of just 7 games? 🤔 are you including the LC games? Is the 7 games you have selected for your glamorous viewpoint by chance our 3 league wins, one league draw (Huns) & 3 LC wins? I could show another viewpoint by just selecting (for example) 9 league games which include 6 losses & 3 draws but if you like you can add in the other draw (v Huns) to round off the pool to ten league games Link to comment

He’ll get a good job down there. There’s a few Championship clubs sacking their managers just now. Rotherham, Millwall, Sunderland, Swansea & Bristol City all looking for new managers just now.

NB- this assumes that genies, discovered in lamps when rubbing them, are still in the business of granting wishes.

Helmet Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 The club better be thoroughly scouting the coaching market, they need to be prepared this time and have some clear targets they would go for. Also need to bite the bullet and pay a bit more to get their man. Link to comment
Russell Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Can't recall ever seeing Darren Mowbray but I'm sure Tony could get him in a headlock and squeeze some transfer targets out of him. Team Mowbray. Link to comment
RUL Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Makes no real difference who the manager is. We’ve been absolutely shite for 30 years bar a decent period when Huns went bust. If they hadn’t we’d have still won fuck all since 1995. We tried investing, also dabbled in not investing, we’ve had drunk foreign and uk managers, fat English chief execs, got a Scottish ones now too, after replacing a Canadian more interested in motor sports than football. Can’t even be arsed addressing our director of football. on Sunday I watched our goalkeeping coach miss the target repeatedly in a warm up drill whilst 2 fitter and younger goalkeepers stood about doing fuck all. Football has changed so much in our lifetime and Aberdeen have been left behind. 1 7 Link to comment

Ten Caat Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Aye I'd take Mowbray too. Had Hibs playing some decent stuff when there and gave them 2 top 4 finishes in a row. Surprised Sunderland binned him with them only being 3 points off a play-off position. Not sure who they think can do better than that but they probably view themselves as a PL side in waiting despite their recent history pl Link to comment
