HalfCutNinja Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Crazy decision imo. He has been at Aberdeen for seven years. He is on course to qualify for Europe for the 7th time in a row. Previous to that they managed four in nineteen. He also won their first trophy for quarter of a century. They may be able to get a 'progressive' coach (has to be Robinson btw) who will make them slightly better to watch, and they may even get a short-term bump. But there's no chance anyone will be able to improve on his results there. Its not possible. He has been bouncing off the glass ceiling for years. It speaks to the sense of entitlement at that club that they can sack a manager currently sitting fourth in the table. For Aberdeen third is first, and he has earned the credit to survive a few bad runs of form. Madness, and will not make anything any better, except possibly the style of football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_min98 Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Disappointed that his time ends like this, but correct decision for him to leave. Can appreciate everything he has done for the club, and he leaves with no ill feelings towards him IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be expecting there to be any improvement on the last seven years now you'll be changing manager, as it isn't possible. Aberdeen can't do any better than what McInnes has done, the only way is down now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naegoodinthedark Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 I know we've been shite for a while, but saddened to see him go. With little money for a rebuild, I have a real fear for next season. Think we can kiss the guaranteed top six finishes goodbye. It's all Scott Fucking Wrights fault. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tell you what thought, why don't me and you manage competing football clubs. I get £120 million to spend each season, and you get £15 million. Best of luck trying to get your team to finish above mine, and don't come crying to me when you get fired cause your teams fans live in a dreamland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrie Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 This is a big appointment fort Aberdeen. They need to get the right person lined up, otherwise they could end up with some utter guff. Look at County, sacked McIntyre (rightfull so) then made poor, poor management decisions and we're still rudderless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
