WesthillWanderersFC Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 I’ve questioned Steven Gunn’s credentials for his role in the past, but I thought he came across well in the Graham Hunter interview to be fair to him. 1 Link to comment

They really are scummy little fuckers. What happens when it's one on one and face to face? That's right you cowered like a little fanny Scott Arfield Link to comment

Yeah he came across pretty knowledgeable and sensible... Hunter on the other hand has to be one of the most annoying interviewers I've ever witnessed. Not sure there was anything very ground breaking - although I think he did say there were a couple of players we had been interested in who we changed our mind on after either meeting them in person or checking up on their character / personality.

Sheepo Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Gunn comes across very well and the club seem to have the recruitment process in a much better place with Mowbray on board. Hunter makes me cringe with his overuse of the word Dandies 1 Link to comment

It's like most things to do with Aberdeen. Most fans base their opinions on people associated with and goings on of the the club on nothing more than conjecture and and little fact. 1 1 Link to comment

Folk basing it on the farcical shit show of last seasons recruitment. Gunn effectively admitted it Mowbray coming in AFTER the window had shut was beyond belief. The club have rectified it, so fair play. Link to comment

Kilgore Trout Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 Gunn came over ok . After all the pish about player profiles and lifestyle obvious question would have been in what shape or form did Jet tick any of those boxes but would appear that Hunter is just a Cunter Link to comment

Tbf he said that signings are highlighted 8-10 months before the summer so Some of glass’ signings would have been identified in the McInnes tenure. Which is concerning Link to comment

With a couple of punts taken on a few others to make up the numbers. Link to comment

Which just reinforced how far out of his depth the former Newcastle winger was. Link to comment

Millertime Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Liked Gundog in that, definitely proving what a lot of folk on here said about him not being qualified, wrong I'm sorry though as I don't know if it's deliberate on his part or not, but I find Hunter really tough to watch/listen to The stuff he says is innocent enough, but it still annoys me for some reason Even when he goes "for the dandies" everywhere, he refers to us and the fans as "dandies " Nothing wrong with it, but still really annoys me The thing is does with his face too- the big fake smile which he can instantly drop into a straight face The bit where he tried to be funny about the new scout being called "graham" Gunbomb completely ignored it, which in itself was quite funny Link to comment

The kind that F n D would spout. What makes him a really shit journalist is that this interview should be for the fans first and Gunn 2nd. The journalist should be anonymous. He makes everything about him. Can't believe he's still allowed to do these as those in the club must know the opinion on him is that of a prick. Not heard one person say he's good. Link to comment
CCB III Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Hunter is an arse. Talks about Spanish football (granted an area of expertise for him) as if he ran the show. "It reminds me of the situation at Barca in the late 90's" or some such shit. Like he was in charge of it. Link to comment

redcryptoknight Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Some of the criticism of Graham Hunter seem unfair to me. I watch these interviews to learn more about Aberdeen and its inner workings. The guy is good at uncovering information I never previously knew. You might not like how he approaches the job, but he gets it done. I don't know if there is anything more afc-chat than an interview with our DoF leading to a discussion of the journalistic chops of the person interviewing him 2 Link to comment

There was one area for me that should've been probed. Gunn said they've had this current recruitment strategy in place for about 4 years. Meaning looking all over the shop for emerging talent, getting a couple of good years out them and selling them for profit. You can see that's the strategy this summer but if it was in place last year how come we bought no one with resale value? Link to comment
