Buttocks Brown Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 The £250K...... would be interesting to know if Lee Sharpe is included in that. Pretty sure that Jim would only take the job if he's allowed to bring in Sharpe as his assistant. If Lee's not part of the compensation fee quoted then could we be looking at closer to £400K to buy out 2 contracts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one of the reasons why I can't see Goodwin leaving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one of the reasons why I can't see Goodwin leaving. Who were the assistants under Tommy Craig? Was it Thommo, Teale AND Goodwin, or was Teale only promoted when Goodwin was demoted back to the squad for getting sent off all the time? My memory is hazy. Either way, my point is Goodwin has first-hand experience of the disruptive impact that overly powerful player/assistants can have. Because he was one. Will be interesting to see how he handles that if he goes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to see how he handles that if he goes. Teale and Goodwin were the assistants. Until Goodwin smashed someone (maybe Armstrong?) and he was demoted back to concentrate on his game. Thommo done his badges I'm sure but was doing punditry before he even retired so it was an easier transaction for him and a less stressful way to earn money. Deffo has a face for the TV . My main gripe would be, is Dave Cormack willing to rip up his project and revamp the structure of the club so the manager has 100% say in recruitment? Also the style of football would be an issue for Aberdeen fans. Solid but unspectacular is why they got rid of McInnes. More food for thought for Jim is, his potential boss has sacked 2 managers in about 12 months. We were the same during a period of unrest. Is he guaranteed a fair crack at the whip? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officer Michaels Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I’ve just seen someone on Twitter claim that Steven McGarry is the only man for the job if Jim goes. Jesus Christ. That might be the worst take I’ve ever seen on there. McGarry . You’ve got folk managing Paisley amateur teams with similar coaching credentials. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenburn bud Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 One story I’m hearing is that our assistant manager is very much settled with a young family, and he’s not keen on relocating. Who knows it’s all rumours at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
