NEM Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 21 successful signings out of that list imo Link to comment
WesthillWanderersFC Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Of that most, I’d say 19 would be deemed good. A success rate of around 25-30% is a really piss poor record. The recruitment & scouting is clearly pish. Link to comment

When you see other interviews from managers we've had before it's clear they expect to be put out their misery. Mcinnes has absolutely no expectation of this. February fixture list is tough so he may be saying something different by then. Link to comment

James fucking Wilson. When I heard we were in for him, I looked into his career and it quickly became apparent he was on a downward spiral to the bottom which would not be halted. Sure a lot of fans were taken in by the "used to play for Man U" bullshit, but the manager of the fucking club should not have been, especially since we ended up shouting from the rooftops that we'd wasted the DNA money on the cunt. So he comes in and is an abject failure. What does McInnes do? Goes and gives him a permanent contract. 2 Link to comment
Jocky Balboa Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Aye, the same old "remember where we were before... who else could we get?!... you're living in the past... unrealistic expectations...etc." horseshit comes to the fore every time someone questions the status quo. It's 2008-09 all over again, when the same phrases were trotted out time and again, after a manager outstayed his natural tenure and was in the midst of an undeserved 3 year contract extension. I honestly didn't think the club would be daft enough to repeat that same folly, but there you go. As I said a couple of years ago, the advantages that McInnes inherited in his first couple of years (no Huns, with Hearts, Hibs and Dundee Utd all relegated in his first few seasons) have long since eroded and the last 2 and a half seasons exposed the fact that, for all the media hype, he is only one standard deviation above Calderwood as a football manager. Both came in and rescued a sinking ship, for which they both deserve credit and should be eternally thanked, but when it came time to really kick on and challenge (i.e. step out of the comfort zone) it's become clear they were out of their depth. Cormack has said and done much to be admired so far, albeit he was starting from a terribly low point, with the Wig Wam Bam having set the bar so low, but I feel his choice of next manager will go a long, long way to telling us the direction of travel his stewardship will take us. Honeymoon period is over Dave, time to act and show us you walk the walk you so eloquently talk. Link to comment
Ernie McCracken Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I'm not in the Mciness out mob (edit I'm not in the Mciness stay mob either) but it was so hard watching Main and Kennedy playing today and questioning why the fuck we'd signed them, when 30 minutes investingation into their pre AFC careers should have told McInnes they were not good enough. I can forgive him if he signs someone who has had a good career to date or is young and then fails to live up to expectations. But why on earth did he think these guys would do then business when all the evidence of their careers to date was screaming out that they wouldn't. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 How much of you calling for mcinnes to go are season ticket or dna members? I'm both but I doubt i'd take away my backing if we lost 20 games in a row edit: financial backing im meaning of course id be at the main stand front door in that instance Link to comment
Zeus Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Both and want him gone. I said about a year to 18 months ago he should go and would go with the vast majorities good grace. (he's been due the dunt for 2 years imo) That's long gone and it's becoming more toxic by the week. With no sight of fans getting back, terrible fitba and results on show next season is going to be a hard sell for cormack if things dont change ASAP 1 Link to comment
RUL Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 There's absolutely no evidence fans will be back by August at this stage. Season tickets would be a tough sell regardless of how we were playing. I think a core of 3 to 4000 would buy regardless how bad we are or if they could go. It may be club increases pptv price and just tries to survive of that. Some fans will demand refunds I think after this year. I've got dna but no season, I've paid significantly less than season ticket holders to see every home game. That model can't happen again. Link to comment

Is my voice worthless? I'd hazard a guess a lot lot more folk that people would realise are in that boat. I've been a season ticket holder for 19 years and the last 15 or so in the same seat. Hardly any one around me has changed in that 15 years. There are lots who will go regardless of home circumstances, football circumstances or anything else Link to comment

There are a lot of faces been there 15 years plus. Still though, I do think next season is a hard sell. I've nae idea what the cost of a ST and DNA is in total(must be 500 plus?) , but will 100% be questioning whether its worth it next year.... Unless things improve on the footballing and virus front.

Yes if there is no sign of getting 5000-10000 fans in to the same game then its difficult to second guess what the club will do. The season ticket has been worth about £200 and there have been plenty like myself that have paid £450 or whatever it was for that Link to comment
Yorston Vasey Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Can we not try and get this cunt to shave first before sacking him? It's no coincidence we won our only trophy with him as manager when the beard spiders weren't fucking with his brain. Link to comment

TynesideDon Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 He gets a free pass for the defeats against the ugly sisters, not that I necessarily agree with that, but it's the way it is (huge budget difference etc) but that's now both a shocking Motherwell team and Ross County that have beaten us by 3 goals. Aside from that the football is absolutely shite. You can just about get away with negative football if you've got the results there to back yourself up but he's not getting those either. He's been here a long time now and it looks like he's just run his course. Who replaces him I haven't got a fucking clue. Link to comment
