What if I told you he's in Seville with his idiot son.

To be honest that wouldn't change my opinion on him, we all know he's a hun but he still very rarely says a bad word against us which you would expect a rabid hun to do everytime he is asked about us. McInnes seems a decent guy. His son seems and absolute weapon however.

 

I watched that opengoal thing with him, first time I've watched it as I cant stand those two weegie pricks but I thought it was really good.

Aye very complimentary and still affectionate to the dons. You couldn’t imagine mcghee having a good word to say and Calderwood, pre illness, would just be going on about still not knowing why he was sacked

Good interview. 

For as much as I thought it time for him to go, I absolutely do not think we would be in this position if he was still here. He'd probably have had Ramirez more consistent over the season too.

Also didn't realise that Sheerin was down at Killie with him now.

He wouldn't have as Ramirez wouldn't have been on his or the clubs radar had he still been here.

He supports whatever team his old man is at. He’s a bitter wee cunt. Last week he was cheering on Killie, tonight he is a hun.

You mean he supports his old man and is public with his support.

Imagine being behind your dad and showing him support, (not on you) but it's a low blow bringing McInnes's family into it.

It's also a low blow to slate the club and fans who paid your daddy's wages for 8 years.

Was bizarre, for a minute watching it I did think to myself that I wished he was still here. Despite everything he did bring stability to the dressing room. Even though Cormack undermined that.

Life however goes on and we have to hope Goodwin is sufficiently backed and given the time to get it right.

Exactly my thoughts. Watching it, I yearned for the stability he brought us and the multi Hampden visits. But all good things come to an end and it went very stale late on

Did it? The season he was sacked I think was his best start to a season. Up until Xmas Hedges, Wright and Watkins were very good to watch.

Like he said in the interview, he lost all 3 of them and Cosgrove and Cormack didn't back him in that window. For me, the football turned to this boring possession based crap with no end product pretty much since that January

I was so grateful to lose all those games at Hampden. 
 

Memories that I'll hold forever. 
 

Come off it

I think that’s the bit people struggle with.  Did Derek do his absolute best to win those games and to at least put up a pretence of trying to match the Huns as they flew past (and they did, absolutely no denying that).  The teams were prepared, particularly for the Celtic finals but did they truly believe?  It’s certainly my view that Dereks glass Ceiling was firmly in place May 2017 onwards.

it was the manner of the defeats that got me though, most of them were complete disasters. 

Of course unlike you're champion Glass who couldn't even get near a final - however that is acceptable as he was trying something different!! 

McInnes would never have had us in 10th spot. End of discussion.

Glass was never my champion and his failures, especially in the cups were not acceptable, that should be obvious given that he is no longer the manager here.

You're right, he wouldn't have but he was taking us backwards as things had got extremely stale.

He spoke absolutely superbly, cormack came in and undid it all

Was weird, I was listening to it and stopped at a service station and met Paul Sheerin

Bizarre

If you look at the teams that lined up in our 5 semis and finals against Celtic, and swapped McInnes and Rodgers, I'd still give us 10% chance of winning. What was he supposed to do? Was nothing to do with belief or tactics.

He probably knows we're only another 3 managerial fuck ups away from taking him back. 2 once Goodwin gets binned.

 

Edit. I'm not advocating taking him back

So season after next then if JG doesn’t get results quickly in first 10 games of next season
