minijc Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 1 minute ago, Andy_123 said: Agreed. Take the £300k we paid for Morris for example. That fee is the equivalent of almost £2k a week for 3 years. I dunno what wage Morris is on, but if we paid that much of a fee for him I’d guess he’s up around £2.5-3k a week minimum. Instead of shite like him we could be forking out that £5k a week on a free transfer who we can be more confident will come in and perform. There needs to be a change made to the overall recruitment strategy needs this summer. We could have just kept Ojo Link to comment

We don't have a core of a squad. We're buying/signing players like it's a football game. Link to comment

If he had any answers, we wouldn't be in the shit to the extent we are. I have some answers for him though, hire a competent director of football, and a competent manager and stay well the fuck out of the way other than to open your chequebook when required.

fine-n-dandy Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 5 hours ago, minijc said: Real lack of leadership throughout the club, too many players who are only out for themselves and don't want to take responsibility. When you are going with this recruitment approach you still need to good characters in, build a good spine which allows the more talented players to flourish, we've completely failed at that. Solid keeper & couple of solid CH’s is the basics to start from as well as a couple of solid central mids. We currently have not a single ONE of them in our squad & it shows in every game.

Signing players you know that complement each other's style of play is outdated short term thinking don't you know. Well 1 is gone, the other 2 are going. Link to comment

shooftahmooftah Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Mcinnes doing a good job at killie, Stephen Glass doing a great Elvis impression act in Memphis 901 FC , Jim Goodwin doing a good job with Dundee United , Barry Robson relaxing in Hotel Paradiso. Something is very very very wrong within the walls of Pittodrie. Warnock delivering his Joe Biden impressions and getting paid for it. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? 1 Link to comment

BaaBaaRedSheep Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 I'll repeat what I have said on another thread. If we get pumped by St Mirren and then go out of the cup to Killie then Cormack will have to act, if Warnock doesn't walk first. At this point I do not have any confidence in Cormack's decision making prawcess and can only hope that the reported review is actually meaningful and that the resultant proposed actions are implemented in full. If that review is only a smokescreen, and Cormack continues his ways unchecked, we will get relegated one day and he will have to go too. His tenure, barring improvements in the financial side, has been a complete disaster on the pitch. His ego must be super inflated if he is oblivious to that. Ultimately he has to sell up and go before we end up in the Championship this year or next. In the meantime not a penny of my hard-earned will be going towards the club until significant changes are made to the management structure, whether involving Cormack or not. 6 Link to comment
Kiriakov33 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Said before but I do wonder if DC will use the “consultant review” as a catalyst to exit the club. Would not surprise me one bit that in the next few years we follow Hibs and are owned / part owned by an EPL club. Link to comment
