I also think he doesn't know to let those he appoints just do the job he asks them to with out butting in. The rumours is that is why Warnock wanted to go. Its also why I dont believe that the football consultant they brought in to rework how the club operates will work. They will do things as required but Cormack will still undermine everyone with his own ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobNox Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 50 minutes ago, jamboinglasgow said: Think whoever ends up taking the job will leave the Aberdeen fans angry. I think they are thinking the next manager is going to be bigger than who it will be. Though would say if Gordon Forrest was made their manager I would be amazed. Yeah, I can't see this. Forrest has no experience of managing a club and the last thing Cormack needs to do right now is appoint another untried manager. He surely has to be looking for someone with some sort of pedigree in managing in the Premiership. The fans will certainly be expecting this, and for him to appoint someone like Forrest would just be throwing further fuel onto the flames.

I heard somewhere that part of the reason for bringing in a manager until the end of the season (Warnock) was that Leven didn't want to be in the post that long.

They’re spending more on wages and transfer fees in the hope they recoup the money spent and turn a small profit by selling players. They need to sell Miovski to keep the toaster plugged in! It’s a very risky strategy from cry baby Cormack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgie_Rules Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Watched the interview with Burrows and it was toe curling. Always thought he was credible from his time at Motherwell but it was a painful watch. Reading between the lines they were waiting on O’Neil to make his mind up and hes now turned them down. Disconnect between what the fans expect and reality is huge. I suspect they’ll go for some left field appointment from a lower league abroad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingantti1874 Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 (edited) 27 minutes ago, Armageddon said: He didn’t score for 8 games so he’s hardly this prolific £10M goal machine we keep hearing about. Agreed. Let me be very clear on this before people criticise me , he’s a good player without doubt I’d be delighted if he played for us. but he’s scored 14 goals in 31 league games. 4 of which have been pens. Nearly every other goal is a left footed effort. now again, I’d take him - I’m just putting it in context. He has some great attributes, young with room to get better, strong and pacy and can defo finish with that left foot. Hold up play outside the box meh? Individually brilliant goals ? Nope! Headers? Meh ! None from what I recall. Right footed efforts? Few if any. laughable to compare him with shanks tbh in any respect other than youthfulness and more room to improve. No where near the same level of individual talent. £4m for a guy that scored 10 open play goals in the SPL. All of the same style which would be completely negated in a better league? Aberdeen will do well to get half that Edited April 2 by kingantti1874 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rods Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Must be desperate for the cash if they are hawking about 10 mill for Mivoski. I notice that the millions they were going to get for Duk have also dried up. Aberdeen have made some good money in recent history from players but done zero with it and the player trading model is failing them and the fanbase are not happy( need to lean on them during the quiet spells) Hibs should perhaps take note.
