The Famous Aberdeen - Season 2022/23


Guest

Recommended Posts

Daily Record must have discovered a new meaning for the word shock I think. Its seemed pretty obvious for a while.

Couldn't see Marciano coming to us, would be a fairly pointless sideways move for him at this stage of his career. Guessing he'd try his luck down south or sitting on the old firms bench with a higher wage for a season or two.

Probably wouldn't be in a rush to replace Lewis just yet anyway. Last couple of seasons haven't been quite as good as his previous ones but not bad enough to write him off yet.

Oh aye and article says Mcginn will be offered a new deal on reduced terms.

Can't see McGinn agreeing to that. I'm more confused by that story suggesting we have offered deals to Mikey Devlin and Ethan Ross. What have either of them done to justify new deals?

Probably cheap options as I can't imagine either will have clubs queuing up for them. All the reports I've seen have said Devlin's would only be short term to see if he can prove his fitness.

Devlin never really recovered after his disgusting red card v Killie.

If McGinn signs a new deal then that'll be me quickly switching to the 'Glass doesn't know what he is doing' camp.

Have to admit that besides maybe Gallagher none of the recruitment stories so far are filling me with much confidence for next season.

i know you know this, but that's not a thing.  

Yeah, clearly, it was exaggeration given how unfit he was. If a fee is paid, I imagine it will be under the terms I set out earlier.

Not even a remote chance we'll finish third next season. Apathy already kicking in.

The announcements of JET and Robertson set to sign, Glass potentially keeping one of Kamberi or Hendry and now McGinn, Ross and Devlin all being offered new deals genuinely has me questioning if we'll finish top 6 next season.

Hibs fans rightfully laughing at us.

What is Barry Robsons reputation like as a coach for you guys? He has been linked to us for the “head coach” role. I actually wouldn’t be too opposed to this, even if to me he seems like a bit of a dewr chap, but was just wondering if people who had experienced him coaching thought positively towards him?

I think he's a "good to have around the dressing room" type. Hard to say what he actually brings in terms of a professional standard of coaching, as it all comes from the top.

Sheerin would be the one to poach probably. He's the senior one, and took interim charge after McInnes was nudged.

Yeah, Sheerin would be ahead of him on my list but was wondering how Robson was as I haven’t really heard much about him, coaching wise.

Just remembered how JET had Aberdeen fans raging about his penalty in the cup :D

Just noticing Aberdeen are the new Motherwell, transfer policy of just signing Livi and ex-Livi players

He’s not even signed yet mate.

Robson coaches the U18s at AFC but I think is being marginalised and will be out the door when Brooner arrives as he’ll be coaching that team.

Can see both Robson and Sheerin departing.

Calm down man. Enjoy the break, see who we sign and then have a meltdown.

Taylor - despite his myriad of faults -has been decent this season. 

It seems weird that we'd let him (and Hoban) go for financial reasons, while keeping a guy who's barely kicked a ball in the last 2 years.

It does seem a bit like the same old approach from Aberdeen - rounding up out of contract guys who have been good for their current clubs but not good enough for the Old Firm or down south. Don’t get me wrong, its a sound enough strategy, and one that’ll probably keep you the best of the rest or thereabouts, and I dearly wish United had the resources to go and sign a guy like Gallagher, but it’s exactly what McInnes did. I thought the new coach was supposed to have exciting, new ways of doing things?
