Derek McInnes

[afc1903mad]

Would I be correct in guessing that your support of McInnes is wavering?
Nothing wrong if that is the case. Sometimes it can take others longer to see weaknesses in managers and their tactics.

No, not at all.
I can criticise when needed, but still appreciate the overall improvement he has made to the team.
Its not a binary condition to support or not.

In each and every one of us, we have strengths and weaknesses.
DM has his weaknesses, but his strengths outweigh those weaknesses in my opinion

Im all for giving McInnes stick for his record against the cheeks this season as it is abysmal.

But I would also agree that the anti McInnes brigade are out in full force just now taking over every thread just to have a go at him.

IF and its a big IF, we beat Celtic on Sunday would the anti McInnes brigade give him credit where credit is due?

I doubt it.

I doubt it.

I would. Although he would still have to make amends long term as well of course.

Would the ultra pro McInnes camp finally admit he's pretty ****ing useless if we get beat though? Or will they just defend it by the normal excuses?

If we get beat on Sunday I would admit he is pretty ****ing useless against the pigs.

I'm pro McInnes given the job he has done with Aberdeen overall, but even if we beat Celtic on Sunday, that one game does not mean a thing.

Celtic will be coming back from a midweek game against Russia, minus Scott Brown.
When they've dropped points this season, its generally following a midweek game in Europe.
Yes we will be missing Shinnie as well.

So its possible to beat Celtic this weeken, but I doubt that means McInnes is a tactical genius or we have turned the corner in overall results.
Its just one game and its not make or break either

Who said anything about him being a tactical genius?

He is far from being that I was merely pointing out that he isn't tactically useless either.

and for the avoidance doubt as well I also picked a random page on this thread and hey presto, there it was.

That was my opinion at the time.
I recognised his strengths and his weaknesses.
His weaknesses are overcoming his strengths (on the playing field).

But that's still a subjective opinion. What have I staunchly defended him on specific issues.
those two are very vague and peripheral, but well done for having a look

well fk me tender
If I'm not mistaken you aksed for a post where you have defended him or stood up for him whatever (same thing in my book) and I give you one where it is clear you are standing up for him
Now whether your opinion has changed since that post is actually irrelevant,
I am starting to get the feeling that you will soon be asking for a seat on the half empty mini bus as your opinion recently does appear to be changing, (so well done for that and finally seeing the light)
But fk me min you asked for a post that shows you sticking up for him, I gave you one and still you come back trying to deflect it.
What a load of fkn b0ll0x, you really are like a old fish wife ffs, I dont think RJ is far off the mark with his thought about you being a 65 year old woman, you really are special aren't you

By the way it's standing room only on the mini bus now, but your very welcome to join
