Next manager?

[RED_JOHN]

On another note, i might put my own name forward….a kids 2011 team i coach have started the season off very well (100% record) only conceding 1 goal in 3 matches (take note Jim Goodwin). This football manager gig is a breeze, especially when your players know the job they have to do and you set them out to win and not just contain the opposition.

Lennon is definitely on the list and has been approached to see if he would be interested…as far as I know, he is.
Robson is in the driving seat though and that is a worry.
Another piece of information….Adi Hutter hasn’t been approached (been in contact with his agency ) and he is on the look out for a management job (done a couple of weeks ago).

If Lennon was the preferred choice he could have been appointed weeks ago - pretty much as soon as Burrows walked in the door

Glad that you made contact with Adi Hutters agency though. He may be slightly confused now about whether to step up for the Dons job or be your assistant at Clackmannan 2011s

Patrick Viera sacked at Palace.

Worth a look?

We may have made several unsuccessful attempts already, behind the scenes, to land a Manager but Im beginning to wonder if anyone wants to come to us! I hope that the interview panel are telling prospective candidates that we beat Real Madrid and Bayern Munich 40 years ago! ��

It kind of looks that way to me. I’m not a huge fan of Cormack but I reckon if a decent manager wants the job he would appoint him.

I wouldn’t be surprised if we are approaching decent managers and they are not interested.

It would explain why we have been without a manager for nearly 2 months and why we appointed Glass and Goodwin previously.

Not a manager, but announced that Rob Wicks is leaving his role of Commercial Director to take on the role of MD at the P&J Live.

Apparently he is/was very good in his role for us.

This is the kind of comment that's really starting to grind my gears at the moment. "The silence is deafening" et cetera et cetera.

I get there's bit of excitement as we genuinely have no clue who'll come in but people are just so ridiculously impatient.

There's absolutely zero rush, we're ticking along just fine at the moment under Robsons care. Have faith that there will be no shortage in interest for this job. If the quality isn't there, lets not rush anything.



Oooh from that pool of available decent managers that seems to be hugely populated at the minute?

We aren’t just talking about the minute though are we.

Do you honestly think if a decent manager was available at the times Stephen Glass or Jim Goodwin would have been anywhere near getting an interview never mind the job?

It’s not like they impressed so much in their interviews that they beat off the competition.

From what I remember the guy Cowely and Shaun Maloney were interviewed along with Glass and Jack Ross was interviewed along with Goodwin.

Says it all really.

The problem here is that people still think the right manager could make a difference.

The job of Aberdeen manager is not to get us relegated. That’s the only record we have that is still within our control. Winning cups regularly, qualifying for the group stages - it’s never happening. The way the game is officiated & the way our club & the league is set up, would prevent it from happening regardless of who was in charge. All we can do is try and avoid appointing turkeys like Glass & Goodwin. COYR!!!

Maybe you could appoint Hutter as your assistant.

Maybe you could appoint Hutter as your assistant.

Nutter and Hutter in the dugout would possibly mean that even the Evening Express wouldn’t struggle so much with its pïsh-poor fitba coverage.
