Derek McInnes

[rico94]

The fact hes the second longest serving in the land says alot. I reckon he will end up longest too

Who’s been in a job longer than him?

Tommy Wright?

Potentially unfair. We don't know what he says in the dressing room and training pitch but that's where building up and tearing down the players should begin and end. What is said to the press should be anodyne shyte and, in fairness, our manager is pretty good at that.

What disturbed me today was that, for the first time I can remember, and my memory may not match my advanced age, Sevco had a team which was better in every position than us both on paper and on the park. "We want a strong Rangers" is noxious enough but I cannot remember a greater disparity between the teams in basic footballing ability. Were our wounded warriors to return, I don't believe this would change except perhaps McKenna being better than Goldson or Katic though, if the team cannot attack, this is hardly relevant.

Well he just blamed the youngsters, travel, financial resources. Everything bar himself. He is a sleekit slopey shouldered fraud of a manager. Never his fault. All, beware it's coming. The finger of nlme willysoon be pointing at all the fans. Go min!

If Hibs beat us next week, and with Motherwell away, where we regularly lose, and Celtic at home on the horizon the fans might, to quote our manager, "start asking the question" about Delboy's seemingly untouchable status at the club.

The fans already do but the board don’t.

That’s the problem.

Milne will stick his Masonic head in the sand.
Nothing to see here.
Monumental & unnecessary mistake to hand out a 3 year contract in the summer.
McInnes needs replacing, but the man who has to replace him needs removed first.
Neither are going to happen.

You may be right: that’s not my argument. The interview with Devlin on RedTV suggested that the criticism of players was in the dressing room and, good, that is where it should stay.

My main point was that sleeping on the way to building Easter Alford, or ‘wanting a stronger Rangers’, or poor recruitment has meant that we have an inferior player in every position than Sevco. I cannot remember that being the case in the 47 years I have been watching the Dons.

My only ? is who do we get to replace him?

As things stand i'd rather see Derek Trotter managing Aberdeen than Derek McInnes!!

I think you might find the reason for that is Milne and his new mate Cormack.

[Devanha Red]

He should of left in the summer of the season in which we won the LC.

His stock will never be as high again.

Zippo chance of getting shot of him until his contract is up unless he resigns but I don't think he's got an honourable bone in his body so we're screwed.

[RedStarTorphins]

I think in his interview he sounded flat, shell-shocked, and rambling, repeating himself.
He just seemed jaded almost.
His persona is reflected in the team.

Injuries are a factor, but I think both McInnes & AFC need a change.
