We should not let this decision pull the wool over our eyes. He should still be a target for criticism. In this structure, or with the personnel in place within the structure? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kent_don Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Big decision ahead. Don’t really trust Cormack/Gunn to get it right tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Thanks for trying Stephen. He might be a good coach but he never came across as a manager. Are we going to bow to fan pressure and bring in Jim Duffy? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is still for Covid reasons then it's about time they got a grip and smell the Omicron... Do the Gruesome Twosome use this entrance and exit onto Fir Park during their visits? But I agree really, shout abuse and don't be surprised if you get a bit back. But if half the nuggets shouting abuse received it themselves after a bad day at work then they would likely be in tears... Every away team uses this exit/entrance. Motherwell redeveloped the home dressing room over the summer, I don’t know if that impacted on the away room. I know the original rooms were very small, it may be that the new set up is more comfortable. I think Hearts have the teams in two different stands. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lubo_blaha Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Neil Lennon wouldn't be popular but he'd be box office. Certainly a divisive character but could you have seen a Neil Lennon side go out the cup as meekly as that yesterday? I don't think so. Purely for entertainment my unreasonable suggestions would be; 1.) Roy Keane 2.) Neil Lennon 3.) Paolo Di CanioIs that the Neil Lennon who went out of cups to St Mirren, Ross County (twice), Morton, Kilmarnock, Hearts and Aberdeen as Celtic manager? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarleyQuinn Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) You could tell from his post match interview that his time was up. Feel sorry for him. This time round there has to be prawcess in place to find the right man. We might just survive relegation after todays news.

Bishop Briggs Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 How about Scott Brown (player-manager) with Alan Stubbs and Peter Grant as his assistants? Btw, what's Paul Lambert doing now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingjoey Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 From the personal side of things I feel really sorry for Stephen Glass. He uprooted his family from the US and eleven months later he’s binned. What does he do now, stay here or go back over the Atlantic? From an Aberdeen fan side of things, after yesterday he had to go and given his BBC Scotland interview post match he thought (or knew) that he was not going to be in charge on Tuesday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenlon resigned on 1 November after a League Cup defeat while sitting 6th in the league after 11 games. Butcher's first game in charge was 23 November in the 14th game of the season. Fenlon went as it was clear he was never going to establish them in the top six, and no one thought there was any chance of them slipping back into a relegation battle. I don't think that's really comparable to Glass, because he was already looking like he was dragging Aberdeen into the relegation battle: he was closer to being a total catastrophe in the mould of Terry Butcher than consistently below par without being a disaster in the mould of Pat Fenlon. That doesn't necessarily mean you won't replace him with someone even worse, but it would be an incredible feat. You'll certainly have dozens of options with a better pedigree than Glass, as there no doubt were when he was appointed as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarleyQuinn Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I'm genuinely concerned the club will get it wrong again. Also I'm not sure what benefit we are getting with this Atlanta Utd partnership. We've been loaned a few duds and taken on a coach who failed miserable. The Hernandez fiasco too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
