1. It saves on a £2M pay-out for him and Doc's remaining contract
2. Once we sell Cosgrove it would be interesting to see if he can top the signings of May, Maynard or Main with another forward whose surname begins Ma---- as a replacement (sh1t, I wonder if Mason plays up front)
3. He's a man before his times - with Brexit upon us his refusal to sign anyone from European football was visionary
4. Who else is going to validate Levein's 6-4-0 formation next time at Iprix?
5. Given the state of the NHS, who else is going to subsidise it in the same way as we do by funding all of those knee/ankle/shoulder operations that otherwise the NHS would have to pay for?
6. Given the near bankruptcy of English football who else is going to help keep them going by paying loan fees for Tate, Burns, Nwkali, McLoughlin, Parker, Monakana and Collin
7. Everyone must surely recognise there are only two clubs in Scotland and the more we can do to help them in Europe the better for Scottish football. is there anyone better than McInnes than giving them a confidence boosting win or in giving their fringe players game time to the detriment of his own players?
8. I have a real concern that Tombola's are in danger of becoming an extinct animal (I'm sure that's what Attenborogh said), McInnes can single-handedly save the poor creature.
9. In this era of social media, it is tragic that letter writing is becoming a thing of the past. Fair play to McInnes for trying to keep the tradition going every Saturday afternoon and hand delivering them as well.
10. As I get older and Alzheimer's becomes more of a concern, I can only thank McInnes for helping my failing memory. As I leave the stadium I swear that I have seen another dross hoofball match but once I switch on the radio in the car and hear Derek I am assured that actually we played scintillating football instead.
So the campaign starts here and now.
McInnes is musty!!!!
