Red Mist Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 The club is in chaos. I think that things have slipped so badly at Pittodrie, that DOF has to be the priority. Dave Cormack means well but he hasn’t got a clue on how to run a professional football club. Recruitment, transfer policy, FMB, succession planning, stadium plan, you name it, it needs root and branch overhaul. This is where DOF comes in. We require someone who’s manager ambitions are over - but not a dinosaur like Warnock. How about Malky McKay? Doesnt seem to be in the frame for managerial jobs these days. Decent managerial record at Norwich and Cardiff, he knows how a club our size should be run. Good contacts in British game. The incoming manager would be interviewed by him and report to him. I think he could be a good middle man between Cormack and the New Manager. Dont think McKay would suffer interference either. McKay is not the only option, but he jumps out for me as someone who would be a good front man for Cormack but also has the experience to tell Dave to wind his neck in. We need to avoid another knee-jerk manager appointment - Cormack must have memory of a goldfish - this is deja vu - for the 3rd time in 3 years 🙁 If we hire a new manager and the structure above him is not changed - words fail me... over to George Bernard Shaw: “Only fools repeat the same things over and over, expecting to obtain different results.” 1 1 Link to comment
Big Hat Logan Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Malky McKay fucking hell. A guy so utterly thick he sent racist texts to a colleague AND got caught. Got a job for the boys with the Scotland setup as nobody would employ him and has an uninspiring managerial record. Quick, put him in charge. Link to comment

Hoppy Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 It should have been a DoF first, manager second. Shambles. 2 Link to comment

A new DoF should have been appointed ages ago, & HE has the responsibility of picking the new manager…. Not the unqualified concoction of clowns we currently have. 1 Link to comment

caledonia Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Malky Mackay Is an absolute arse who did the celtic/rangers bidding for colt teams more than once and unfair cup final ticket distributions when he was with the SFA. cunt should be nowhere near us 1 Link to comment
sooth_stander Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Malky McKay, for no other reason that the ABZ Podcast Brewdog boys would internally combust. 1 2 Link to comment
Willo flood Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I wouldn’t mind someone with a similar CV to Malky Mackay, just not Malky Malckay 1 Link to comment
ullevi Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 You would think if we are bringing in a dof the new manager would have a say in who it is or at least we will align the positions Link to comment

Steven Gunn should have no say, seeing as he wants McInnes back. Link to comment
