  1. Not spoiling for a fight, you just put things up as fact and I think they need to be challenged. You called it "the game that will go down in history as the biggest capitulation ever", so I called that out. McGinn not starting this game does not mean that McInnes doesn't consider him as good enough - you're just making assumptions there. I would say that the rest of the team has caught up to McGinn's level in a way that he's not always a standout anymore, but it doesn't mean he's regressed badly at all. I don't think Shinnie would be in the Scotland team even if he was playing left back every week. Considine being a 6/10 LB and an 8/10 CB doesn't sound like he's been ruined at all, so I don't follow your logic there. He's been a pretty steady performer for us and as I say, has improved as a left back during that time. And yes, comparing a manager to other managers is a pretty good way of telling if they're competent or not. He seems to be very competent, considering the low point we were at before he took over. No one is happy about the final, but it wasn't the worst ever by a long shot, and McInnes might not be perfect but he's incredibly far from being "incompetent" or "inept" like you suggest.
  2. Absolute havers as usual, RS. Hysterical pish. Forgetting the 9-0? (or in fact most of the results under McGhee, and that's only looking at recent years) In what way? The stats don't back that up. He creates assists and scores goals and is being picked for his country. How is that because of McInnes? Even if he was playing left back every week, he'd still be 5th choice left back for Scotland. Bollocks. He's improved as a left back and is as decent a CB as he's ever been. More hysterical pish. Take a look at this to refresh your memory about who has or hasn't got the skills for the job: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Aberdeen_F.C._managers
  3. Thankfully not 5 at the back - Shinnie's sticking tight to Brown wherever he goes so far
  4. My biggest fear for today was that we would go with 5 at the back again and waste another 45 minutes before adjusting to a back 4. Hoping to be proved wrong
  5. Haven't all the signings been lazy? I'm glad we signed Osbourne and Arnason, but each signing this year seems to be either a result of an agent wanting to send one of their players to us, or of Clark knowing the player from Plymouth. I don't see any evidence of scouting, or us asking targets to come to the club. A but worrying if that were to be the case for future signing policy
  6. Ah well, good to see some thorough journalism in the papers then. I would say that in our recent history we hang on to managers just a bit longer than other clubs would, meaning a bad run is left to linger on too long and another season will be beyond redemption. Cheers for the welcome!
  7. I thought Willie wasn't the Director of Football anymore? Is he not head of youth development or something?
