Stephen Glass: What should we do?

To be fair, we dominate 'lesser' teams, and with fewer midfielders, better (or uninjured) defenders, and a regular advanced player who can form a partnership with Ramirez we'd be picking up points. 

We need to lose a few players who are no longer up to the task or who never were. though.

Also, Glass needs to get his temper under control, because discipline starts at the top. How many times has he been sent to the stands, now? 

January is going to be critical to determining where we finish next year. 

 

I fear it will be too late by January.

Glass is going nowhere. Cormack has completely lost interest in this season so won’t sack his only choice as manager. It’s the chairman the fans will need to turn on to get a change. It’s worked before and it will work again. 

It’s depressing. The whole club and fans seem to have lost any sort of winning mentality and urgency. We’re near the bottom of the table and nobody gives a fuck.

We can only blame the manager and the chairman. Both are the very best of friends and both don’t have the balls to be winners. Glass is lacking real leadership in the dressing room because it’s showing big time on the pitch. Cormack has truly given up. He came out annoyed when Glass was tipped for the sack but the reality is he himself didn’t want to look a fool by having to sack his ridiculous choice as manager. 
We had the international break to work on set plays, tactics etc but we still look as powderpuff as we have for too much of the season. That is bad management.

[fine-n-dandy]

Just have to wonder how long this farcical experiment will be allowed to continue. 
 

I thought Cormack was meant to be firm & ruthless behind the nashers. I guess his unwillingness/stubbornness to admit his wee puppet experiment is useless is overriding sense/what is needed to put an end to this shitshow.

 

Pride comes before a fall Dave

[Millertime]

Just heard his extra interview part there and Chris Iwelumo ripping glass for not supporting his player

That in itself is sackable and you would think if he hadn't already,  he would have lost the dressing room now 

Hope he has, utter weasel

[aberdeen1970]

Well we'll just have to be patient because as soon as you make any criticisms of the management team or the leadership structure you just get telt that you have to give the manager, the players and the directors more time. 

There's enough in the support who want to give everyone time to stop Cormack from having to make any decisions just now.

Get rid of him now.

Go for Solskjaer now he's available. A big name to galvanise the club and he's had a huge pay off so won't need huge money.

24 hours late but got there in the end.

 

[Crossbow]

We still lost. Dave is a snake oil salesman and this is deflection, 10 man Dons beaten by 10 man United is the fact we should not forget.

[Reed or deed]

Chairman contradicting the manager.

Fuck off glass you absolute cretin.

[aberdeen1970]

Club have bailed out Glass with that statement. 

To be fair though its a decent statement.

" at which point the Club will take any appropriate steps."

Right. 

The next time the club 'takes steps' will be the first time under Cormack and Glass. 

[RED_JOHN]

The club chairman has had to say something simply for the reason to take a bit pressure off his best pal the manager. 
Make no bones about it…Glass didn’t back Ojo and that will stick with the players and a lot of fans. Cormack trying to suggest otherwise won’t fool everyone.

Depends how popular ojo is I suppose. 

 

[G31DON]

No decent manager would blame his own player for that incident, so naive.  Even if technically it was somehow a yellow, you never admit that, very poor for team spirit and moral.

Have to agree.

[AyrshireSheep]

It's telling about the state of the club right now that the club have had to release a statement and the chairman and DoF have had to publicly back Ojo because his manager failed to do so post match.

And on that post match interview why the fuck did Glass not look at the footage at full time knowing full well he'd get asked about it in the post match media. 

[DelMonte]

Glass got sent off after the incident so he obviously backed Ojo. The interview after is naive but he is just wanting to avoid a headline/trouble.

It is naive (Kooks) but I think that's a huge problem with Glass in general. He appears to be completely out of his depth in all areas. 

January will be telling. He has everything he needs in place including a DoF, Head of Recruitment and as per his own autobiography the set piece guru. So no excuses. 

[Kincardine_Mearns_Red]

So it doesnt look like we will be getting rid of Glass anytime soon. #CirclingthedrainAFC

[paddy]

As long as we keep getting the odd result and no end up in the bottom two, Glass will be safe. It’s clear Cormack feels this season is a write-off anyway, and wants to give him a chance. 

Just how bad things need to get before the chairman finally sees sense remains to be seen. 
 

Dire stuff.

It makes no sense. This is virtually a continuation of the form that got the previous manager sacked but Cormack goes on radio to justify that sacking and says shouldn't Aberdeen fans want more.

[Guest]

Need to wash our hands of this. 
 

It's been disastrous. 
 

 

[Ke1t]

Thinking about sending these to the club, so next time Glass is sent to the stand he can stay in communication with the bench, rather than sitting sulking with a face on.

I’m not convinced we’re any better with his input tbf

It's had the complete opposite effect though hasn't it? Everyone and their dog in the media saying how Glass hasn't backed his man. Was it Iwelumo that tore him a new hole on Sportscene? If he had just come out and backed his man like he should have done rather than try to sweet talk the SFA ahead of his hearing we wouldn't be having this conversation.
