Hawkeye the Gnu Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Under McInnes you're hardly playing football that's easy on the eye. With the budget and the players you have you should be more than capable of producing something better. I could see the point if this 'anti football' was winning trophies, but it's not. Currently you are behaving like a team of thugs, but I'm sure that's only because that's how you have been coached. Aberdeen FC should be capable of so much more than they're doing, and IMO, McInnes has had his day and should be dumped ASAP. Apart from being a total bawbag of an individual. he's really not that good a manager. I've always had a soft spot for the club and was in Sweden with friends to witness their greatest hour (and a half), I've even got the sign from Goteborg railway station to prove it, (it fell off, honest). My hope for the future is that McInnes gets punted and you mount a serious challenge to Septic, oh, and you let us win occasionally at Rugby Park. Amen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from ‘team of thugs’ I don’t disagree with much of this I have a feeling there will be some Mutual Consent arrangements at the end of the season, especially if we finish below 3rd Unless we win the Cup Which we won’t 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I thought the midfield three were excellent on Saturday. McGeouchs best game so far. Hopefully getting benched and Campbell playing well in his place was a kick up the arse from him. Wasn't nearly as slow on the ball as he had been prior to this game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcgeouch certainly had a lot more urgency about him. He has to play with a tempo and determination to probe and hurt teams. Until Saturday he was fair too laid back in the games. He is actually a decent tackler, again something he needs to show more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is brilliant stuff. I would have an add on, where each primary school kid was allowed to take along one piece of Old Firm shit that their old man/big brother/random jakie had, and burn it ceremonially in the Pittodrie car park in front of 200 cheering mates. AFC can provide the petrol. What kid doesn't like to play with fire ? Edited March 10, 2020 by Bob Mahelp 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really just a token throwaway gesture but I'd have been delighted getting to do that as a loon. The club phoned me yesterday to ask if I was aware the Red Shed is moving to the Merkland Stand next season. We're not going to renew our season ticket in there but they'll do everything they can to make sure we get a seat in another stand and at the current Merkland rates. It sounds minimal but it's night and day compared to the level of customer service you used to get. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Very clever. It's essentially what the church has been doing with baptisms for hundreds of years, and it seems to work extremely well. Get them in early and if they're half tempted to glory-hunt with Celtic*, then that certificate in their bedroom might be enough to put them off the idea. * well, it's not to be Rangers, is it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGarci Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 where is the last time when aberdeen finished in europe for 3 or 4 seasons in a row?? (moreover losing key players every seaoson) maybe mcinness isnt so bad, or not? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prior to that, it was the fifteen (15) seasons between 1977/78 and 1991/92. I used to take Europe for a granted as a youngster - now every year we qualify I bless the fact that I can have that wee spell of checking coefficients, seedings and obscure potential journeys to up country Armenia and the likes. .....but hey, the season's apparently over if you're knocked out of the Scottish Cup.
