Derek McInnes

I agree.
Won’t happen.
I predict on Tuesday that Milne will take his head out the sand for a quick interview with an appropriately accommodating local journalist to provide his public support for McInnes.
Set your watch for about 11am on Tuesday morning.

I'd be surprised if Milne gave McInnes a "vote of confidence" via the press this week. After all, we're still in 4th (for the moment) and Milne will be hoping that victory over struggling (but improving) Hibernian will quell the fires.

He might be misguided though. A defeat with another performance devoid of attacking intent then even those fans who had previously backed McInnes might begin to turn. It will the those fans, and not those that want change after every adverse result, that will dictate if the media begin to focus their attentions on the manager.

Levien and Heckingbottom seem to be steering their manager-ships through perilous waters presently (although that might change after the semi finals) and it could well be McInnes the finds himself in the cross hairs next for the first time since he was fired from Bristol City.

I think the McInnes fan club can now get a shot of the half empty minibus. It should fit them into it with ease.

In the real world I ken a lot of people and the number of folk still fighting his corner is now doon to two. One of them is JJ who incidentally says he's been banned from here.

I'm going to have a word with my superiors see if I can have him reinstated even though he said he's happier aff the forum.

He must have annoyed someone on another forum as no one from here would ban him. The @rsehole who is on Dundee United’s one cannot take a bit stick so I had been banned for a week for giving them a bit stick.

Luckily I was out in the town yesterday afternoon so didn’t have to see or hear the match. I had no plans to pay any attention to what I fully expected to be another spineless capitulation anyway.

When I finally saw the score I just laughed. Nothing else for it. All too sadly predictable.

A 5-0 defeat to any Scottish side should be a sacking offence for an AFC manager under any circumstances.

The fact we have a gutless @rsehole chairman who has previously found a 9-0 defeat & a jakey manager getting pished & missing a match as perfectly acceptable there’s no chance DM will be fired.

Yes we’ve got injuries - but we've signed a bunch of injury prone players so who’d have thunk it.

I also think the training & physio work needs a serious look at as this number of injuries is not just bad luck in my view.

The 3 year contract in the summer was madness. Simply baffling & totally unnecessary at the time.

It’s left us completely stranded in no mans land - we can’t fire him (not that Milne would) & he won’t quit as this is the biggest & best job he’ll ever have.

He’s not lost the dressing room - but it’s definitely gone stale & he's not got the ability or vision & thinking to change it.

Long dire season ahead. Currently I’m not in the least disappointed it’ll be my last with a season ticket for some time.

I’ll wager plenty others feel the same...

It would appear it's related to alleged racism. Some walrus stuck him in. No need.

I speak ****e

I'd not be surprised to find it was you that stuck him in. You're definitely the type.

Commercially, in terms of potential investment, I think we gain from his track record so far.
I may be wrong but that’s why I think he will remain in his role.

F*cking hell
