JFK-1 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Lennon may suit them, though it might confuse them when the inevitable bad run comes, maybe gubbed by Rangers and they face the difficulty of trying to call Lennon of all people a hun. Lennon is hard nosed enough that he wouldn't give the proverbial flying about their abuse, from day one he would simply be looking at this as a time filler while looking for his next job.

jamboinglasgow Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 20 hours ago, Mikey1874 said: I dont often say this but I do agree with Kris Boyd. I dont get the reason for an interm manager, there is 3 and a half months left in the season, thats not the time for an intern manager. A month left in the season is the time. As he says what happens if the interm manager comes in and does well. I dont see Neil Warnock staying for another season, and even if he does they you cant expect more than a season out of him, which means you have no long term plan for the manager. It smacks of a board who dont know what to do so are just wanting to kick the can further down the road, hope Warnock can rescue the season (and at best get them into 4th place and some kind of European football.) There is no long term plan with them, if the plan is wait till the summer hoping to open up more options for manager, then they are risking their transfer plan in the summer (I do think our recruitment was hampered a bit in the summer by the time taken to appointment Naismith.) If they are looking to appoint a manager in the next few months that will take over in the summer but overview, then why not appoint them sooner. Naismith was appointed with a view of the long term, yes there was rightful questioning if such an inexperienced manager should have got the reigns, but its clear that he saw a long term plan for developing the first team which matched with the board. Which saw the mentality of the first team change, that aimed to bring in youngsters who can develop, and to look to bring forward a stable squad that requires few changes every season. (Obviously being a results business that could still falter but its clear what the club wants from Naismith and what he could bring.) I just dont see that from Aberdeen. Its clear that when they sacked McInnes, who admittedly was seeing diminishing returns in his results but the clear talk was about a more attractive style of football. But they didn't really do anything that allowed that. Glass tried it and failed and their next two managers are ones who were imitation McInnes (solid and hard to break down teams.) I hope they continue to spend lots of money but with little direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMFC01 Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Hopefully the live match on Tuesday goes zero goals, bookings, Injuries, disallowed goals, penalties denied, penalties given and missed, manager meltdowns, game into disrepute. Maybe an offside or two 😂 😂 Hopefully the wee Latvian manager laughs his nuts off at it all. I don't take to the guy in his interviews at all. It seems he's insulted by an outsider getting a massive job. He loves the old firm as far as I remember. Where does that leave Aberdeen. Just an opportunity to get the Rangers or Celtic job in the future. Bit like McInnes I guess. Although at least McInnes deserved that opportunity from his successes. I don't know.
