Go for Mowbray or not?

[BaaBaaRedSheep]

I would and, regardless of an impending final, would move fast.

Thoughts?

[Durrant Dived]

Absolute no brainer if he's interested. We should never be a managers first job. 

[Johnnyred1]

Mowbray out!! Oops sorry, too early.

You’re reliant on the premise we have a pro-active Board.

EDIT - They’re the polar opposite. 

[aberdeen1970]

Would be a sensible appointment if interested. 

Hopefully his brother and his pal Stephen Glass have good things to say about the club......

Only by about 6 months 

[Kincardine_Mearns_Red]

Yes go for him.

[RDS]

His basic salary at Sunderland was around £1m so say £20k a week so likely out of our range

Fucking bargain.

He's just been sacked and likely got a big payoff.  Offer him McInnes money (allegedly circa £15-17k a week) and stop skinflinting over the most important role at the club.......

We could afford that for King Del.

He's only worth what the next club are willing to pay. He will have had a pay-off from Sunderland. Over his career he's never been a massive star either playing or managing but he is still likely to have earned enough that he could retire and live very comfortably from today onwards should he choose. But if we offered say £12k/wk, it's hardly peanuts. As I've said elsewhere, I think his days as a Championship level manager might well be over. Would he get £12k/wk in EFL1? Not from many  I'd imagine

This is all theoretical of course (for the time being).  We aren't binning Robson until at least after the LC Final (and even then it would only be if we lost all matches in the interim).

[Chester Don]

This is where we need to be investing and disproportionality so if required, you can have as many good rowers in a boat as you want but unless you have the right captain, navigating in the right direction and motivating or cracking the whip as required the boat isn’t going anywhere…

It's pretty ridiculous when you put it like that.

Why the fuck you'd spend that much money on absolute muck like him while continually scrimping on the manager is beyond me.

[zeroisgod76]

At the moment i'd take Guy Mowbray over Barry Robson.

[Russell]

I want close ups of him in the Main stand tomorrow 

[Dons21]

Be shocked if he’s even interested let alone our incompetent FMB sounding him out to check.

I doubt it's scrimping for colgate it's more like that he knows if he gets a decent experienced coach for £££ he'll not suffer cormacks interference. The cock wants his fingers in all things afc he's a total narcissistic yank wannabe prick.

If we’re chasing former Celtic managers, there’s only 1 choice for me

[jamiesd]

We should at least be enquiring.  Come on Dave. Get on the blower!

Bi polar more like.

[GDON21]

Mowbray can still walk into majority of championship teams when the jobs come up. Plenty always come up at the turn of the year. 

[thegodfuzzy]

Nae chance Mowbray is upping his life and moving this north for 15k a week at 58 when he can sit on what he has and wait for another gig doon South.

He's 60. And Aberdeen is a fucking great job.

Hibs were Mowbray's first job. Didn't hear many complaints from the Hibs fans about his inexperience when he was winning manager of the year

Don’t.

BUT… I’ve said before, he’d be interested & he’s a realistic bet.

Better than our current incumbent but is Mowbray really that good?

All managers contract should be a decent basic with success built in. Also imo should have “failure “ clause also. In the bottom 2 released with minimum pay off
