    I certainly hope we are looking at the Greek super league. There are some good players in Greece including alot of youngsters. In fact when I lived there I e mailed a certain Dave Cormack about the potential market there. The fact my nephew is looking for a club and he's been asked to go for a trial by a certain German club from Munich should give an indication of the talent there.

    New contract extension & pay rise, more likely, just in case 'Derek' is tempted.

    I would enjoy another season watching Derek McInnes and his Aberdeen team play this fluent style of football. I would be extremely disappointed if he left us to take the Scotland gig...it could certainly hinder our development as a club for a good 5-10 years

    If he were to go RJ, who would you replace him with?

    Somebody I could name.

    Some I've seen mentioned in here

    Alan Archibald's name has been mentioned.
    He's available after being sacked as manager of Partick in the championship having had them relegated the season previously

    John 'Yogi' Hughes is available. He previously guided ICT to Scottish cup success over Falkirk.
    He has briefly manager of Raith Rovers and deemed not good enough after guiding them to relegation to league one

    Alan Stubbs is available. He previously guided Hibs to victory over SevCo in the Scottish cup. Hibs first Scottish Cup in over 100 years.
    He's since failed at Rotherham and St Mirren.

    Jack Ross, currently manager of Sunderland and had relative success at his previous roles (Alloa / St Mirren).
    Despite having by far the largest budget in the league, Sunderland currently have failed to get to an automatic promotion spot position. Too many draws (41.5% of all league games played) the factor.
    Could he become available if Sunderland fail to get promoted?

    Graham Potter, he was my shout as potential manager before his success in Europe propelled him beyond our likely reach. Current manager of Swansea sitting mid table in the championship and linked with the Celtic job.

    Jim McIntyre is currently manager of Dundee, but having successfully managed Ross County to win the League Cup against Hibs during McInnes's tenure at Aberdeen

    Tommy Wright, current manager of St Johnstone, sitting in the bottom half of the league. St Johnstone demonstrably have regressed having previously qualified for Europe, but he did guide St Johnstone to a historic Scottish Cup win over Dundee United courtesy of an on fire Stevie May during McInnes's tenure.#

    Gordon Strachan, currently available and apparently reported previously to be buying a house in Aberdeen. Not spotted in Gregs yet, but he's available and currently linked with a return to the Scotland job

    Neil Lennon, current temporary manager of Celtic, odds on him not being appointed the role permanently are high, liked by many in here as a better manager (I don't see it). Also linked with the Fulham job along with Steve Clark.

    Steve Clarke, undoubtedly has worked miracles at Kilmarnock despite their budget, no success as measured in trophies, but arguably could bring us to the next level. Currently linked with the Scotland and Fulham job's. I doubt he would be tempted by the Aberdeen role, but you never know

    Jim Goodwin is probably the best of the up and coming managers with potential.
    Took over from Jack Ross (see earlier) and got Alloa promoted and currently sit a respectful 8th in the championship with a recent run of good form after earlier flirting with the relegation spots

    Feel free to add others I may have missed.

    No, no, no, yes but meantime out of reach, out of reach now, no, no, wouldn't touch us with a barge pole and probably wouldn't be welcomed, interesting, doubt he'd come, needs to manage full-time for a spell -
    Would be my assessment of those runners and riders.
