Kerr and Mulgrew

[TENEMENTFUNSTER]

Obviously not a popular view point, but I wouldn't be too disappointed if Mulgrew is still here next season.

 

Me either. His goals probably kept us far enough away from being relegated and played most games out of position.

 

He won't be there next season though he clearly has designs upon playing at a level he couldn't pish at.

Bye Charlie, I've enjoyed a few free kicks but shit it every time some one runs at you.  Foster has a better shot at getting a call up than you ever will...... and he's not going to

Mulgrew is attracting interest from brentford apparently. LOLZ.

Where do you hear that from?

That'll surely get him a Scotland call up

BBC gossip section, him and Kyle being tracked by them!

[glasgow sheep]

If any of those cunts are at the club next season I'll be absolutely raging. I would have thought the song mulgrew had sung at him on sat would have been enough to make his decision for him. Scum.

 

what song?

[tsr]

His name is Mulgrew and he doesn't give a fuck.

[dave_min]

They gone yet?

[maverick sheep]

SS news just said 'expected to leave'

 

Dunno what they're hanging about for. No mention of ghost unfortunately.

Aberdeen FC boss in hunt for new skipper

McGhee fires warning to Kerr

 

By Charlie Allan

 

Published: 14/05/2010

 

ABERDEEN FC today confirmed they have started the search for a new club skipper.

 

Mark Kerr’s decision to delay signing a new contract looks likely to cost him the honour of leading Aberdeen FC next season.

 

Kerr will definitely lose the job if he hasn’t agreed a new contract by July 5, the day Aberdeen FC return for pre-season training.

 

Manager Mark McGhee confirmed he has already begun hunting for a new skipper – and that the role won’t go to anyone else currently at Pittodrie.

Good decision imo.  There's nobody at the club who strikes me as an obvious candidate for the captain armband.

True enough, doesn't say much for the "team" does it.

Agreed, apart from maybe Diamond but even he, I don't know about. Then again, given McGhee's track record and the possible targets we have been linked with, nobody coming in to the club will an obvious candidate for the armband, meaning we could end up with an even worse captain that we currently have.

[tom_widdows]

Given he decided Kerr was a good choice Im sure the players dont care what he thinks

[Guest ally s]

No it certainly doesn't.  Any time I've seen them there's a distinct lack of fight/leadership etc

[tsr]

Is he wrong? I don't see any captains in the club at all looking from the outside.

[BobbyBiscuit]

Dangerous thing to say though, what if, within the signings he makes there isn't a suitable candidate so he has to give it to Diamond or Foster for talks sake?  Doesn't look too good does it?

[tsr]

Is there any quotes he said it? Obviously if it doesn't come off he'll look daft.

[McMaster]

A bit confused by this (no that it takes much).

 

He is going to get a new captain in, that isnt in the Aberdeen squad already!

 

I think Diamond definately shows the determination and voice to stand up and get the team going.  He might have been a wee bit quiet because Kerr was 'supposed' to be leading the team.  Cant mind what game it was (one near the end of the season that was on tv) when he picked the ball up and drove forward on an angry, attacking run to show the midfield what the hell they should have been doing!!  He has been at Pittodrie for years and understands the history and the fans.

 

Who are we going to get in like that.

 

Complete kick in the teeth for him and might even be the catalyst for him to say sod this im awa'.

Especially if McGhee turns around and says tae Zander he is vice-captain!!

 

[tsr]

Would that be a massive loss? His form wasn't great when he came back from injury.

 

That said i'd rather he stayed but if he's going to take the hump then he should remember his own performance against Hamilton as probably being one of the reasons why he's not being considered as captain.

[Ptayles]

Diamond is too young and a bit inexperienced...Hes a bit silly at times we need someone who is calm and experienced

Is he not 25 now?

[dave_min]

And what better way to mature him than giving him this responsibility?

 

[Willie Miller reference]

[El Padre™]

Pretty much my thinking on it. It would do Zander the world of good to have that responsibility.
