    If McInnes ends up going it's really quite an unbelievable sequence of events - that makes Ryan Jack's actions at the end of last season look tame. Either way, our season's screwed and McInnes has lost the support of the fans and quite possibly some of the dressing room.

    I get that we're all looking for someone to blame (if this does all go ahead as seems increasingly likely), but I'm struggling to see how this is all Stewart Milne's fault... he's got McInnes signed up on an extended contract, with a release clause which ensures we get decent money if he does depart. If he's approached now, he will go because he will know that he's no longer wanted at Pittodrie.

    The last few years we've had it pretty good - our expectations have been raised, back to the level they should be for a club of our size and history. McInnes has had a big part to play in that (whatever we think of him now) and Milne has to take a little credit for bringing him in and backing him to an extent over those years. He needs to get the next appointment right though, as it's a really crucial time for AFC. The problem is even the fans on this forum can't pick out an outstanding candidate for the job, so Milne and co will have a very difficult task.

    We need to get behind the club if / when McInnes goes - otherwise we're just shooting ourselves in the foot and playing right into the hands of the media and the OF.
