I mean to me a burd going out dressed like that is wanting rattled.

Definitely not imo. Good score though she's hot.

When she pointed out that waiting times in Scotland are a lot lower than England or Wales he instantly dismissed it saying that's not much comfort to someone in A and E that they won't have to wait as long as someone in Grimsby. That was deeply unfair, highly partisan and belied his own bias and hatred of the SNP. If you want to hold her to account for the things that are not going well on health you have to also acknowledge the things they are doing well. A balanced interview would do that, and perhaps allow her to.expand on that a little.

It is but it's allowing the unionist press to score cheap points on areas.not affected by this election and as such is a subversion of democracy. The same way the likes of Scottish Labour campaigning on health and education in this election is too.

True but trolling Nicola about her governments record on health is out of order given it's a devolved issue and this is a general election. No matter what the result the same people will be running the SNHS the day after the election.

Its also pretty poor to focus on health in a GE when health is not an issue as it's devolved.

I'm a huge fan of independence and tbh l thought she was poor. Probably the worst I've seen her. I bet Salmond would have handled that much better.

I actually don't think Nicola did very well but it's difficult to do that when he is shouting over all her answers.

Performs the purpose he wants it to though. He's the most raging of all raging Britnats.

He's about to lose his second election in a row to the worst Tory government of all time though isn't he?

Cracker from last year https://mobile.twitter.com/BBCScotlandNews/status/1072903730754920448 Picture is of Scottish cabinet. Yet scotgov have not taken a single payrise since 2008-9 and donate their rise each year to charity.

Wow, what a team. Incredible to think of the quality of player we had then.

Maybe, but it's simple reality third is the best Aberdeen can possibly hope to achieve and that's where Aberdeen are. I asked one of those people who seemingly do know what they're talking about above what he thinks McInnes should be doing that he isn't, he wasn't able to name anything, not one thing. I think.that tells its own story.

Rangers have changed, that's what. There's no chance of finishing above them now.

I know Jocky Scott quite well actually. They were in charge when Celtic we're imploding, very similar to Rangers these last few years.

Rangers

What manager since Fergie has been better? What's your average league position under each manager since then?

I'm not sure if you maybe don't understand the meaning of the word 'again'. again /əˈɡɛn,əˈɡeɪn/ adverb another time; once more. 'it was great to meet old friends again' synonyms: once more, one more time, another time, a second time, afresh, anew

Totally agree, mince pies and xmas pudding are utterly bowfin.

Fairly bowfin. Could do with a lot less yellow.

Well I don't see what more the board could reasonably ask for. What would you suggest he should be doing that he isn't? I think the best they could ask for is more of the same, if he can keep Aberdeen where he has taken them that would be fantastic and a huge success. By continually doing this and not having one bad season so far, that is exceeding expectations.

Good post but getting in about the uglies just isn't gonna happen. You could appoint Klopp Guardiola and Mourinho in a managerial triumvirate they still couldn't get Aberdeen within ten points of second. If you did manage to find such an exceptional coach, assuming one exists which personally I don't believe, he either wouldn't take the Aberdeen job or he'd be gone within nine months if he did. My concern in this is Scottish football. I don't have any great animosity towards Aberdeen, I think it's important for Scottish football to have a healthy Aberdeen partially bridging the gap between the old firm and everyone else. You have a manager doing that, and I fear he will eventually be hounded out by Aberdeen fans because of their unrealistic expectations.

That's a pretty week attempt at criticism. 'We might not do as well in the near future as we're doing now' is hardly an indictment. I would accept Aberdeen aren't playing particularly well right now, but neither are Liverpool and they're on their way to a title win. And to be meeting (I would say exceeding) objectives whilst not playing well is the sign of a very good team and a very good manager.

I'm a Dundee United fan actually. So if three points clear in third is underperforming, where do you think Aberdeen should be right now?

No offence but I think that's just the deluded self entitlement of a typical Aberdeen fan who thinks they're a big club when they're not. Aberdeen are not underperforming, they're sitting third right now. That's as good as they can possibly hope to be. They are three points clear at the top of the table right now, whilst rebuilding a team yet again. That's absolutely outstanding from McInnes and in many ways he is a victim of his own success as he has raised expectations so far Aberdeen fans don't see that as good, when it's as good as it's ever going to get and as good as it's been for the last thirty years. it's also completely unreasonable to say third is simply meeting your objectives, you have very very similar budget to Hibs and Hearts, less than a million in it, and they don't have the need to spend massively on infrastructure like you do. So to consistently finish above them every season and also everybody else too (Killie an outlier last season due to a fantastic manager) is top drawer and not simply meeting your objectives. It's not reasonable to make your objectives always finishing above two clubs that have identical budgets to you and labelling it failure of you don't. That's consistently overachieving if anything.
