The only way I can see it being less boring is if you prefer us finishing in the bottom 6 and find it boring finishing 3rd or 4th.

At the same time it would show how much of a a shambles we have become if the best we can do is bring him back 2 years after sacking him.

The only thing worse than that would be appointing Lennon.
Both Glass and Goodwin initially tried to play expansive football- the problem was they never had the defensive players to do that who were good enough- how many 5 goal games were there at Pittodrie at the start of the season
How many times under McInnes did we get 1-0 up then game management would start rather than trying to score another goal?
Normally the defensive subs would take place around the 60th minute
After the first couple of seasons, bringing in players like Stockley and Cosgrove you knew the long ball was the default setting and really was poor fare. Just because we won more than lost, it was grim.

While I wouldn’t want any of the 3 back at Pittodrie, he knew how to beat the other also-rans in the league hence the 3rd or 4th place in a poor league
