All aboard this unstoppable momentum for Knutsen to become our manager

There is Nor-way we can turn it down

This train will need a bogbrush*, so count me in...

*Although, I don't think I've ever seen a bogbrush on a train and I've travelled the world on trains (well part of the world at least)

Interview questions for new hire:

1-What sort of player plays in the full back positions? 

(if they say "full backs" , go to q2, if not, thank them for their time) 

2-what's better, goals or possession? 

(if "goals" , proceed) 

3-how do you say definitely? 

(if "definately" punch in face and throw out, otherwise proceed) 

If more than one candidate remains, hire the one with the best name.

He’d be Knuts to turn us down.

Get the Kjetil on for it happening.

……It’s going to be Jack Ross, isn’t it?

If Knutsen is available and willing. It makes no sense to not to push the boat out. That would be a game changer, but you would need to wait until summer or even next January to get his players in

Probably the case for anyone we'd want though.

Tab Ramos all day.

Would you consider changing your name to Jackson rossollinni?

I don't think there's any chance at all he leaves us. Turned down Bradford when Hopkin went, normally I'd be expecting people to move upwards but Martindale could genuinely be here for the next 10/15 years without much worry. He's proven himself to be one of the better managers in this league now too.

Aye, he definitely seems quite happy and content where he is. I don't think he gets enough credit for what he is achieving, maybe down to his "personality".

Tarapoa is a good c**t. 

Someone else certainly called him a gammon. Guessing he just replied to your message as a whole rather than multi-quoting several posts.

Thanks MR - some would say one of those two words was true anyway.

..........and apologies to the hormonally imbalanced buddie for my lack of multi-quote skills and pinning the hurtful gammon slur on them.

Goodwin will be our next manager according to one or two ITK types around the city.  I still remember the whole South Stand singing 'Goodwin Get To F**k' during a midweek LC tie around a decade or so back - I think that was backhanded respect, rather than the version Glass got at Dens Park and Fir Park.

Well I’m going to watch the Super Bowl and then, unlike Amy, I’m off to rehab for at least a month tomorrow.
Fucked up badly, so new manager is really the least of my concerns until March!

Good luck mate. A good piece of advice someone told me: If you're going through hell, keep going.

Knutsen if only for the freudian slips.

Which is what, exactly? 
Bearing in mind it's already been said that this is the highest wage bill ever at St Mirren, they're a "top four" club and Goodwin is the highest paid manager in your clubs history. 

Your last manager got the bullet for being 3rd for years in a row. There is no potential to make Aberdeen any better than that. Jim may fail with St Mirren but he has potential to overachieve. Anything less than 3rd at aberdeen is failure and they can't go any higher. He can overachieve at St Mirren and increase his standing. Aberdeen is a dead end job.

You realise Derek McInnes got plenty of offers to leave Aberdeen for other clubs don't you? 

Like, he was getting approached by EFL Championship sides and Rangers. Its not as if clubs don't go for an Aberdeen manager if they do well, he simply decided not to leave.

Not being funny, but even that first sentence is riddled with holes.

McInnes was 4th two years running with third highest budget. Stop with the Scottish media type facts please.

[Dons_1988]

Interesting development in our hunt for a new manager. 

Barry Ferguson has resigned his post at Alloa…

[gudge1903]

Also - 8 years to build a team that made your eyes bleed.

Maybe needed more time I suppose
