He has shown this week that he has found his level in organising taxis to various school pitches around Aberdeen. McInnes needs us more than we need him. Swayed by the message boards? You think he pops on to P&B every now and then when he has a career path decision to make? Because if he does, then his decision not to go to The Rangers makes complete sense. Considering the number of utter Rangers supporting trumpets on this board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do have an obsession with training pitches tonight. If things had been conducted properly when your club ceased to exist your lot would be training in the Asda car park and merged with Benburb FC. Shame the establishment changed the rules eh ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdTheDuck Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Chris McLaughlin's twitter full of his usual *** fellatio this morning. Suggests they offered a million Blue Pounds and AFC knocked them back without,apparently, referral to McInnes. For the life of me, why would they knock them back without running it past McInnes? Last thing AFC need is a disgruntled McInnes who feels he has been boxed in, however much fun it is hacking off the ***. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So presumably you’ll be starting a “McInnes Out” campaign, if “the arse” takes the job? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALTHOUGH...as I said, it is McLaughlin, so...y'know... An offer was made to Aberdeen. It was rejected. Shouldn't have to run that by McInnes. The onus is maybe on McInnes to now make his position clear to Milne. If he wants to go to Rangers he needs to say so to Aberdeen. Something that has clearly not been done, and McInnes even went so far as to agree with Milne's comments of two weeks ago - an own goal for him there it seems. If a bid came in for one of our players we wouldn't run it past them if we were going to reject it.

You'd expect the club to let the player know there had been an offer but it's your intention to reject it and explain your reasoning though? No? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's meant to be part of the decision making management team, isn't he? And even then, as capt-oats suggests, we would let the player/manager know a bid has been made, wouldn't we? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris McLaughlin is banned from Ibrox but his source is a person that worked for the BBC and now works in Rangers PR. McInnes is away that is obvious but I think he will have to resign as I doubt Aberdeen will accept Rangers offer due to them messing us about. Aberdeen fans will question McInnes integrity over the last 2 games and Rangers should never have allow that to happen.

Dubford don Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 When Sunderland came calling they proved they could pay the compensation and mcinnes was allowed to talk to them before rejecting the job. the fact we have refused sevco permission to even open talks suggest they can't afford the compensation,sevco are trying to force dels hand and he may well be asking himself if he wants to work for such a shower of shit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sevco may have offered the right amount of money, but their offer is probably in staggered payments (say 200k a year for the next 4 years). This may have then given Milne the wriggle room to turn them down, if the contract says that compensation has to be paid up front. Basically it will end up with McInnes quitting and the clubs settling out of court. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kneetrembler Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Surely to f**k Milne and McInnes had a conversation about this prior to the public statement saying he was committed to Aberdeen? "Derek, if Rangers come in for you, will you want to go? " Someone has broken their word here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Derek, if Rangers come in for you, will you want to go? " Someone has broken their word here. What you say makes perfect logical sense. However part of me thinks Milne maybe said that to kill the sevco interest, or force the issue. McInnes backing his comments up is what is pissing me off about this whole thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
