  1. Good to know the key criteria for managing in the Scottish Premiership is having been a previous guest on Sportsound.
  2. Kudos on your consistency in calling Desmond "O'Desmond" whilst calling Cormack 'McCormack'.
  3. Yep, I was half expecting Anderson to be recalled from Hamilton once McInnes left.
  4. Good point, if you have a ladder it can be used to earn money. No excuses.
  5. I get your scepticism, especially around the interview that Cormack gave essentially quashing rumours that Glass was holed up in a local hotel and that there was a recruitment process in place. For someone so keen on the fan experience and transparency with the support, it's hard not to feel a bit stitched up.
  6. Where are you seeing that it's a 12 month deal? The more I think about it, it makes me wonder whether this was always in the offing from the point that Cormack & Antlanta made the initial investment. Balls on the table moment for Cormack and the board though.
  7. On the plus side, it avoids a payout if it doesn't go well with with a largely untested new manager.
  8. Too much of an unknown quantity to come to any judgement about. Just hope he has the right backroom team and the financial backing of the board to overhaul the squad. Will be interesting to see how this goes.
  9. Ha ha! When the players come out to Duelling Banjos as part of the fan experience...
  10. It was never going to be anyone but Glass. Cormack's take away from his discussion with Fergie was that the Chairman should have a good relationship with the Manager. It seems that Sheerin may have begun to embed some of Glass' style, going by Saturday. Time will tell if it's to be strap in for excitement or strap on for a fucking, Georgia style.
  11. Surely the grim determination of a call to arms would provide the motivation to just walk it, no? Or at least ask someone for a lift or to chip in for a taxi?
  12. It could be argued that this way of thinking is paradoxical though, as if McInnes was kept in post, continuing on his most recent form, we could have ended up in the bottom six for the next three seasons anyway. I haven't seen anything recently to suggest that McInnes would have been able to turn the team's fortunes around. This is not a dig at McInnes, who up until recently had my backing as a pretty consistent manager. I'm more than resigned to the fact that things will be worse before they get better, but suggesting that critics of McInnes should undergo some form of penitence, if or when this occurs, is a tad harsh.
  13. Can hear fireworks in the G52 area at the moment. Not really sure of the motivation to be honest.
  14. Agreed. You could see what Sheerin was trying to achieve. Play out from the back, keeping the ball on the ground, short passing and trying to use the channels. It just wasn't particularly well executed, with misplaced passes and losing the second ball too often. Strangely it seemed like a group of players who had barely played together, but I suppose that could be expected with a new system.
