Rangers Then, Sevco Now, Scotland's Shame Forever....

[RedStarTorphins]

DM will be Sevco's number 1 target, reckon that is obvious.

Reckon we'll know very soon. Of course the club won't comment until an official approach is made but those media types in the know will advise us soon enough.

Milne will fight tooth and nail to keep him but you can't offer DM pay rises every time this happens. The continual delays regarding Kingsford will go against us here.

McInnes will need to think very carefully about his next move, as he won't want to be seen to be knocking back too many job offers too often or he'll get a label of unambition hung around his neck.

If I was a betting man, which I'm not, I think he'd take it. Funnily enough, I'm a lot less bothered about the prospect of him leaving than I was last summer, although maybe last night's sh1teness is still too raw!

As I said, it wouldn’t surprise me.
Half my mind is thinking ahead to who I’d want (or more importantly, who the Alford need would want as replacement).
And also, if DM did go, would he try and take Shinnie/Lewis/McLean with him?
The Huns would find the money.
The next week or two will tell all I suppose.

Predictive text!!
Bl00dy iPhone obviously doesn’t recognise the word “neep “
Imagine that?
Alford neep.

Why would he? He would fail with the 3 mentioned. Far higher level of player needed.

Sevco won't offer him the job anyway. Shirley even those idiots can see that he can only play the one tactic. Even Pedro got the better of him twice.

If McInnes can only play the one tactic but has managed to win 126 of his 216 games in charge,how many tactics does someone like Alan Archibald have who has lost more games than he has won

Honestly, I think some folk on here have a weird kind of cuckoldry fetish and get off on the idea of McInnes pondering a move to the h*ns.

[Pacman1903]

Im not doubting they will want to speak to him

Im more of the opinion he wont speak to them. If Sunderland were too bampot for him then these f@ck are way beyond bampot

Our fans are kidding themselves.

Rangers are definitely going to ask to speak to him, they have rich investors, and then whatever happens happens.

He would have resources and player pull he won't get anywhere else except the EPL.

They have the training facilities he craves and he can buy whoever he wants.

Goodbye Derek McInnes.

I was speaking about this last night. This has McLeish or Davies all over it because they have no other options and im pretty sure sevco dont have the option to to buy out a manager as im sure paying off Pedros remaining 29 months will nae be cheap.

I also believe that McInnes wouldnt go near it as hes a smart man(bar when playing celtic). They are a shambles at board level, they have sh@te players on long contracts, theres a director of fitba, their fans are deluded spazmos who will be on him after any slip ups. He winna want any of that

I don't kid myself that if the h*ns weren't a shambles, McInnes wouldn't be there in a shot. But is it really a more attractive prospect than the Sunderland job? Based on the experience of the last two managers, that's highly doubtful. Sunderland would have been a risk but one that could have paid off handsomely. Going to manage the h*ns doesn't really have a big upside (unless he intrinsically wants to manage them). It's a bit like the Scotland job really. It has a bit of residual prestige but in reality it's a sh*t sandwich. It will only appeal to those who have no other options.

It seemed more likely that he would go there after Warburton got the sack.

Now is a completely different time to the summer time.
DM turned down Sunderland as they were a big risk off the field and he was given assurances from the Aberdeen board he would get to strengthen and the stadium / training facilities would be pushed through.
That's on hold now, so he may be questioning his ability to progress Aberdeen further than we are presently.

SevCo are still a risk, but I'm sure he would be confident of improving them both domestically and in Europe.
With all that in mind, he might see value in taking that risk

[Pacman1903]

I dont believe that they can afford to buy out a management team whether Derek and Doc or Giovanni van Bronkhorst(Gordon Smith touting him) or whoever
