I respect the idea that we need to re-establish ourselves in the top flight and build a team which reflects that, but I also don't want to descend back into a team of unsellable 28 year olds because the manager is too chicken shit to use the multimillion pound academy. Tbh, I think the club should be saying a certain % of the squad must be academy grads. But surely if the manager has a shorter contract he will be more incentivized to play older guys to go for short term results rather than play the young guys which would be more beneficial in the long run?

Rather than the length of contact I would hope we can show a new manager some respect and support and give them time to get their ideas on to the pitch. Stendels bubble burst very quickly with some on here, Neilson’s the same, and to be honest neither were really given a chance and both were badly hampered by COVID. We have to avoid management changes every five minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmaroon Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 If true, McInnes would simply be treated as Robbie has with supporters split down the middle. If only we were going for Stendel at the end of this season rather than when we did. But someone like Neill or Ferguson or just anyone who hasn't produced the same kind of defence oriented, careful football that's achieved the exact opposite of what was intended, poor performances PLUS poor results.

That’s a well educated guess I am in no way ITK I wouldn't be surprised either way if Rob leaves at the end of the season. But I'm not having it that Budge has recruited the new manager. She's told Robert who the new man is. Rab has told a friend or family member. They've passed that info to some random on Kickback with no previous of knowing Bobby or being ITK.

Not against Neilson he hasn't and his star is rather on the wane, particularly since he doesn't run the football club from top to bottom. My Mrs has a season ticket I've watched as much of Aberdeen as I have Hearts, frying pan into the fire. Would be an abysmal unimaginative and ultimately flawed appointment. Prepared to take stick, stuck my neck out on the signing of Mackay Steven as a player who was either hot cold or injured, physically or mentally. Unfortunately I know a good deal about the Sheep, eye bleeding. Same words people have used about Neilson and they want Mcinnes to replace him.
