MARK McGhee wants Aberdeen FC skipper Mark Kerr to get a little more help from his friends in tomorrow’s crucial SPL clash with Falkirk.

 

Aberdeen FC need to beat the Bairns at Pittodrie to ease fears of being dragged into a relegation dogfight.

 

Kerr, a former Falkirk player, will have a key role, despite the barracking he’s been getting from his own fans in recent weeks because he hasn’t been at his very best.

 

Aberdeen FC boss McGhee is happy to stand by under-fire Kerr because he admires the way his skipper has taken all of the flak in his stride.

Im hoping that he is just saying that to get half a performance out of him.

Surely he should be looking at the reason the flak is heading towards his captain rather than how he handles it?

He'll tell him wants he wants to hear to try and motivate the team captain to ensure our SPL survival - can't understand why the captain needs to be petted - then, once we're safe, he can tell Kerr to pack his bags and try his luck elsewhere!

[McMaster]

Admires the way Kerr is taking the flak in his stride . . . . yeah thats because he does'nt give a damn and its water off a ducks back!!  Give the captaincy to Diamond. I mean, come on, how thick do you have to be!!

 

The only back-up Kerr needs is when he comes out of Pittodrie if Aberdeen lose!!

Aye cos we all know he can't eight for shit

[Kowalski]

Fucking shocking performance today.  He was truly woeful.  He could learn a few things about attitude, application, desire, and passing from Derek Young!

I said in chat - as we're safe now I'd be disgusted if I ever see Kerr and the others who won't be here next season ever wearing the shirt again.

 

Grimmer and Fyvie in midfield and don't even have kerr on the bench.

[Frogger]

Can't accuse Kerr of not getting stuck in and can break play up but sweet jesus, I counted two passes to a red shirt!  Simple stuff dude.  Cant do that can't be a footballer and I hope the Manager does see this.  If not then questions need to be asked and an eyebrow or two raised.
