Aberdeen sack Derek McInnes


Recommended Posts


McInnes has ruled himself out for a job he was never under consideration for

To be fair to him what he says it's absolutely correct and is maybe an insight into why he turned down the Sunderland job as well.  Unfortunately it looks like we're stuck with the cunt for a good long time yet.

By all means some of the zoomers can call for McInnes' head from 8.30pm tonight but please no 'our season is over' shouts until weve at least managed 2 or 3 more wins from the last 9 games

we are fucking shite this season.

 

some kudos has to be handed to mcinnes.

 

season rolls on for another month yet....

We’re shite and the manager doesn’t need to be a priority? I see

Everything is a bit more of a challenge for us this year. The manager himself has said tonight he's had a few better teams than this one.

 

There is no reason to make a snap decision on giving the manager another pay rise

Just wish he would nail a couple of belters of signings to complement what we have

 

Hopefully he brings Campbell thru over the last 10-11 games this season like he did Cosgrove last season.

 

Things are looking about ok despite the 10 or so players that are currently leaving*

 

*sign Considine NOW

CORRECT! FUCKING EPIC!

 

Results are all that matter!

 

In reality this season is a transition season but weve made a fucking fist of it so hats off to the management

Inconsistent at home the biggest criticism, mainly due to lack of creativity when we need to make the play.

 

Seeing some younger players break through has been the biggest bonus. We haven't had a crop with potential like this for a long time. I'm pretty excited about it.

 

Oh and knocking the Huns out of both cups.

Derek McInnes has given me some of my best moments supporting the Dons.

 

That semi at Tynecastle

Knocking Celtic out the cup at Parkhead

Ending the trophy draught

Beating Groningen away

Beating Rijeka away

Maddison's last minute winner

Beating Hibs at Hampden

Winning at Ibrox three times

Beating them at Hampden

 

And loads of good bounces in between.

 

I'll take being shite sometimes to enjoy all that. Topping it off with a Scottish Cup would be fucking marvellous, especially if he does it by beating Rangers at Ibrox, Celtic at Hampden, then doing Hearts in the final.

Been to them all barring 2 of the 3 wins at Ibrox. Some bounces looking back on it.

His record in Glasgow now is fucking amazing

I thought thats what you all wanted!!!

And that’s without the gimme of Partick.......

 

I wonder if the board have said they’d back him with signings as long as he was more proactive in bringing the youth players through? Or was he just being patient and knew we were due some good players through the ranks?

I'd add the Motherwell away game on the way to winning the League Cup (when Shaughnessy got sent off early) to that list.

I have to admit that I have criticized DM a great deal in recent times, including my perceived opinion that he didn't give youth a chance in past seasons i.e he only played McKenna because we were so pish in the previous game against Motherwell.

However completely happy to eat humble pie after last night. Three teenagers in midweek and beating the Huns in their own back yard was like a throwback to Fergie years.

Our season had to be focused in taking out the Tims and winning the cup

Link to comment

He had a pretty funny comment on the radio post match about being the new Jim McLean with all these kids signed long term.

 

As mentioned elsewhere he had a fair comment about why Deano isn't playing as often as we'd like but gets a game against the bigger teams.

What was he saying about young dean?

Link to comment

Aye I'd like to know as well because Deano's lack of game time has been pretty bewildering.  He's looked up to the challenge in every game he's played, which is more than can be said for some of the established first teamers.

 

Is it because Huns and Tims try and play football* and putting him out against shit like Hamilton will result in his knee's getting split?

 

*the huns dinna play football.  They fanny around and dive about for 90 minutes and sometimes get penalties.
