Are you hurting?

These two posts could be linked together to end the initial suggestion

Got to be Gallaghers last chance with us, been very underwhelming so far for a guy with spl experience. If he doesn’t buck up a January replacement required 

The January window will be interesting to see who we manage to move on and where we need to strengthen.

Although we’ve had defensive injury issues, I’d like cover for Ramirez

[RUL]

I'm more hopeful we will get in as clear Boris isn't offering any funds for restrictions.

Longstaff away in Jan surely... Not getting a sniff now and rightly so, Been awful every time i've seen him play

[GeorgeStreetReds]

Tickets bought, be interested to see how many we take down for this.

[Betty Swallicks]

Same team once again except Gallacher for the suspended McRorie. Plenty time for him to train together with Bates and get an understanding. Gallacher really should be starting ahead of McRorie anyway if he gets his shit together. 

1-3 us. 

[RED_JOHN]

Looks like Hibs are going for a similar style as ourselves when recruiting a manager. I hope Scott Brown stays here to learn the ropes rather than jump into the hot seat at Easter Road.

Other than Gallagher in for McCrorie, I don’t see any other changes for this game.

As it should be. And that’s despite me watching an entire re-run of the St Johnstone game on BBC Alba - brutal game but, 3 points and a clean sheet.

Ramsay and McKenzie will get their opportunity soon enough.

Jenks for JET for me.

Possibly, we probably need a bit more energy against Hibs than JET gives us.

When we played against Hibs up at Pittodrie, the team was: -

ABERDEEN: Lewis, Bates, Gallagher (Longstaff 43), McCrorie, Ramsay (Hayes 30), Brown, Ferguson, Hedges, Ojo, Watkins (McGinn 78), Ramirez.

Can see it being very similar (although Hayes to remain in instead of Ramsay). Still leaves one spot for Jenks / JET to compete for in the coming week

Big fee if he goes got a 3 year deal I think it was. Been one of our most influential players. If we want £500k+ for hedges then £5 million for Brown seems fair

It’s a choice between an arm and a leg.

I choose an arm. Who's the arm? Is it Jenks or JET?

2 year deal with a clause to release him for managerial duties. 

[Ten Caat]

I don't expect Brown to get the job but I'd have no problem releasing him to do it provided it was to be Hibs manager only. If he wanted to be player-manager then I'd be wanting a fee

Apparently Sir David and Steve Kean have ruled themselves out so it'll definitely be an external appointment

Away you go

Brown is a key player for us 

[Betty Swallicks]

millermong is right for once. No way should we be just letting a first team player leave for fuck all regardless if moving to be a manager or player/manager. 

He's nae getting offered the job regardless imo.

What do you do if he just decides to retire?

EDIT....as I said before I don't think he's getting it so it's a moot point but if he retires from playing and takes a job as a manager elsewhere a week later I honestly have no idea if we'd be entitled to compensation or not

Come on, YOU must know, of all people!

[The Cockney Don]

Usually a low scoring game against them.

1-0 Dons (Hedges).

[afc1903mad]

Would Brown take the Hibs job, quite possibly but not yet I’d like to think

[Tord31]

Sell out crowd for this one once the lockdown is announced for boxing day onwards

Brown would take the Hibs job, and let’s be honest and admit why wouldn’t he? He is wanting to be a manager and probably would make a decent one as players respect him at the moment which gives him a great start. 
He might even take Glass as his assistant along with Russell. 
Henry will look after things here until Cormack goes through another prawcess to decide on Henry anyway, with Gunn as his assistant. 
It will be a first in world football….being the manager’s boss and his assistant at the same time. Apaloo currently run’s the show at Aberdeen anyway.

Indeed. There is much more that an arm can do for you. Mostly because it typically has a hand attached to it.

Jenks  proved that. 

[SupportmeansSUPPORT]

sounds like Shaun Maloney is getting the Hibs job with Gary Caldwell as his assistant. Wonder if he will take over for the cup final or if his first game will be against us.

Where are you seeing this other than on follow follow?

Hibs chief exec has confirmed that both Lennon and McInnes are "not in the running" but he doesn't mention any name other than to say they are "in talks with a preferred candidate"

EDIT.....just seen that The Sun are running with it

[WesthillWanderersFC]

Shaun Maloney was my first choice to replace McInnes.

Hopefully Hibs don’t get a managerial bounce in his first home game in charge against us.

 

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

Maloneys a right dour cunt. Cant imagine him as a manager at all.

[Dynamo]

Maloney has coached with Belgium but never managed anywhere. Massive gamble much like Glass was. 

Big step up being the boss from being assistant. Be interesting to see how he does.

[Reed or deed]

Maloney = Poloni.
