    I can't say I'm 100% convinced he'll be a successful Aberdeen manager yet, I still have a few doubts, but he deserves far more time than some fans are giving him. The criticism has been well over the top - lot of it fuelled by the disappointment of the club teasing us Horneland for three months only to then appoint the St Mirren manager. Looking at the next five fixtures. Rangers (h) Celtic (a) Kilmarnock (h) Motherwell (a)* Kilmarnock (a) League Cup *might be after the Killie cup game, date not yet confirmed. Tough run you could say, but if we got, say, just seven points and a cup semi place - not an impossible task - the mood would shift considerably and it'd feel like we're finally underway with Robinson.

    I actually feel reasonably optimistic about Robinson. He wasn't my first choice, not sure he was anyone's bar Burrows 2bf. That said I always thought he spoke well and his teams punched above their weight consistently so I wasn't dead against it. All things considered I actually think he's done pretty well. 6 wins out of seven ain't to be sniffed at and, sure, you can say 4 of them were again lower league teams. You still have to win them though and do so after a very limited pre season. Add in the huge turnover in squad you could argue there was banana skins everywhere. Go ask utd how they dealt with that with far more stability going into the group stages. Really, all anyone has to reasonably moan about, is the shit show at dens and that's fair. Unfortunately it seems that dens was just what those who didn't want him as manager were waiting for and some have got a bit carried away. The win and good performance yesterday seems to have turned the volume down on that and I think seeing the likes of Aremu, Yogane and Cadden justifying their fees brings a little more confidence to us all that maybe they do know what they are doing. I don't see the point in getting too critical at this stage myself. The die is cast and Robinson is manager. It's hard to dispute that so far he's pretty much done as well as could be expected of him bar a poor performance against Dundee. We are all, obviously, going to offer our thoughts as to tactics, strategy and performance for every game but realistically we won't see what this team playing Robinsonball looks like until the winter when the squad has properly gelled. What that version of Robinsonball looks like potentially could be what makes or breaks him at pittodrie. If he's able to adapt his play to be a bit prettier and still get results that would win over most fans I suspect. If it's just like what was served up at St Mirren then that negative undercurrent will continue through the support and that usually only ends one way.

    Don’t think anyone can argue with that. This season is not going to be a smooth ride one way or another but we needed a result and it got delivered. More of that please.

    Robinson needs to be a bit ruthless as the squad is really bloated. I take that Shinnie was offered a deal based on limited playing time. I think Robinson made a decision that he wasn’t going to be a starter most weeks and obviously Shinnie wasn’t happy with that. But ultimately Shinnie isn’t the player he was now his engine is going, and I think that the best decision has been made for everyone. Nothing to worry about, if the club is to move forward sometimes hard decisions have to be made. I think if he hadn’t been such an influential player over the years, he may have just been released without even receiving an offer.

    I don’t think anything in particular has “gone so wrong” behind the scenes, its just a different management style. Let’s be honest, the place was a fuckin holiday camp under Thelin. I doubt that’s the case any longer. Regardless of what you think of Robinson, I’d be sure his expectations re work rate, training intensity etc will be considerably higher than his predecessor. If a bunch of last years wall flowers don’t like that - tough luck and off you pop. None of them will be missed in the slightest…

    Big Seb has spoken to the media about getting the job. He says all the usual things new managers say (passionate support, great history, wants to do a good job, etc.)

    I'm one of his biggest critics so very well done on Saturday. Lot of pressure on him to deliver that result on Saturday.

    Probably make us the Friday night game just to disadvantage the fans again.
