An absolute terrible chairman of our club who should have been hounded out of Pittodrie years ago and long before the wig got wheeked away from his napper.
Also the DNA debacle doesn’t sit well with fans.

I've tended to defend him.
People were screaming for him to spend money and when he did it sunk the club into debt for years.
Given that our competition were cheating, spending the money was never going to work.
Keeping the club going ( and in the top division) through the years when the bank called the tune wasn't easy and no doubt personal guarantees from him helped keep us afloat.
Look what happened to other clubs, relegations, administrations and liquidation.
However
His wish for Sevco to be strong and his desire to move from our beloved Pittodrie weigh heavily against him.
Nae really, it's perhaps a bare minimum but it's a bare minimum that most clubs close to us failed to achieve.
As for putting us in debt, yes it was a mistake, but it was a mistake we all cried out for him to make.
But his sucking up to the Hun and attempted move to Westhills finishes it for me........Milne oot.
No one for defending our esteemed chairman?
I agree with you to an extent but he had us in a massive black hole financially and now wants to send us down another one.
His choice of manager has been shocking but someone like Skovdahl coming to Aberdeen now would be impressive, Paterson was an obvious choice being up and coming, McGhee is a club legend and has experience and a decent couple of seasons at Motherwell, likewise Brown.
The stadium issue and all the pish about it being a deathtrap and ultimately the Hun issue is enough for anyone to want him to get to ****. It's odd that people defend him.
Skovdhal I will give you,he done well at Brondby but at the same time should have been sacked long before he did if McInnes deserves the boot.
Don’t know for sure but I have heard that Milne was warned about Patterson’s drinking problems and chose to ignore them.
McGhee had a decent spell at Motherwell but got sacked at pretty much every other job he had so it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to work out he was pish.
I would say the appointments were not the reason Milne plummeted us into mediocrity,it’s more to do with the fact he never sacked them all sooner,I don’t think Dick Donald would have put up with any of them for as long as he did.
