I see trouble ahead, I'm sure Robbie Shepherd would be a great servant to the club, but the Board would end up unceremoniously replacing him with Gary Innes. 

Gary Innes reminds me of the parody guy of Daniel O’Donnel from Father ted, the one Mrs. Doyle is obsessed with.

Alex Neil would be a tremendous appointment. He's the only name I've seen that I'd believe would truly be an improvement on McInnes. 

He's done well in England. Has contacts in both Scotland and England. Would be able to attract a better calibre of player then McInnes and everyone else mentioned on the bookies list. He's known for high pressing attacking football. Cormack needs to go and get him.

He's also a Morton fan and has no afflilations with the OF. Absolute no brainer for me!

That all sounds good and I agree it should be a no brainer to go for Neil but you just know that it's going to be Glass, whether you like it or not.

This has just fallen into Aberdeen's lap, a bit like with McInnes. 

If Dave Cormack has anything about him he'll be sounding out Alex Neil this morning.

One win in the last 9 matches with PNE

Sounds like a perfect fit at the moment

Pretty much every manager, everywhere, will at some point fail with a club and part ways. 

Supporting Hibs, you should certainly be aware of that. You've had plenty of experience of it over the last 10 years or so. 

That doesn't mean that the manager concerned is a bad manager.

Alex Neil would be a brilliant fit for Aberdeen, IMHO. 

The only question mark against his name would be the fact that he signed Jayden Stockley.

Alex Neil is the only name I've heard suggested that has raised my interest a bit.

Not a very high bar though.

Stockley was decent for us. The last manager we hired had previously signed Richard Foster, and he did ok.

That's the silver lining for me. I was thoroughly uninspired when we appointed the failed Bristol City manager a few years ago.

That's exactly why I'm not getting myself up nor down about it.

Who doesn't love a giant jawbreaker gobstopper?

Imagine Cormack actually appointed Stephen Glass while Alex Neil is available. Surely not?
