Barry Robson and his Flock

[Stokesy's on fire]

Get it right up him and his team. Brilliant to see them get an absolute roasting. No Var to the rescue today for them.

[Nicho87]

I really don’t like Robson, comes across a smart Alec and a bit of an arse in general. I’d have a flutter on him being punted before the season is finished

Kettlewell is next but Robson will be away after they lose the league cup final.

I said Robson would be sacked by Xmas before the season started. He’s seems to be keeping himself on track for that.

[Sloop67]

Naebadges looks like he's got a temporary reprieve. So it looks like Robson and Martindale are leading the sack race at the moment. Robson was always going to be a bad appointment in my opinion

[Nicho87]

Just watched his interview on Sky.

Says more or less, I don’t want to go intro the reasons for the lack of performance today, everyone knows the reasons I don’t need to go through them……

Everyone knows the amount of games we’ve had.

Simply can’t help himself.

Even Willie miller was picking faults at Barry. Can’t see the deluded bunch up there sticking with him long

[A Hi-Bee]

Dont like to see anyone lose a job, even worse in the run up to Xmas, but B. Bobson and the one wi the funny hair Kettle something, along with nasal neabadges are rip and may well be done and gone soon.

Surely a manager who takes his team to a Cup Final won’t get sacked

I don’t know what it is but there is something I just don’t like about Robson - maybe because he never gives any credit to a team that turns him over - maybe coz he is just irritating and that’s all

[Since452]

I also predicted he'd be sacked by Christmas months ago but he has a knack of pulling unexpected results out of nowhere to make it pretty difficult to sack him. Beating Rangers at Ibrox, getting to a cup final and drawing away to PAOK. Three impressive results. Will keep him there for longer. I don't rate him at all.

It’s panto season soon. Oh yes he will.

[ekhibee]

The next management sacking, in my opinion,is between Kettlewell and Martinedale. Aberdeen totally undeservedly have got to a national Cup final and that'll keep Robson in a job for an extra couple of weeks until they come up against somebody half decent and get beat again.

Ask Jack Ross.

[Nicho87]

I’m sure Aberdeen have 5/7 league games in December at home

Big month that

[Hibee Mac]

I've never thought he's very good, they flatter to deceive under him.

Still massively inconsistent as they have been for a long time now (same as Hibs).

He thinks he is something special. Even last season when hearts beat them he claimed the game mattered more to hearts.

[neil7908]

Just makes me so angry we couldn't beat them last week. They are ***** and he'll be gone before Xmas.

Think Martindale is in with the bricks at Livi.

[Paulie Walnuts]

He’ll be fine for as long as he shows signs of being able to win games imo.

They won 1 of their first 9 games in all competitions this season and that was a narrow win against Stirling Albion. At that point though it was probably too early to sack him after the success of last season. Since then they’ve won 5, drawn 3 and lost 3 despite that run containing Rangers and Celtic away and 3 group stage European games. They’ve actually been fairly impressive the last 2 months results wise imo. They took a doing at the weekend but I think he’ll be fine for a while yet.

[Not In The Know]

The longer him and nae badges sneak an outlier result here and there the better for us. It will make it less obvious for the boards to sack them.

[Stokesy's on fire]

That DUK looks like he has put on the beef whats happened to him?

[overdrive]

Think Martindale is in with the bricks at Livi.

He was but I think they have a new owner this season so I'm not sure he's safe anymore. They mentioned it on the commentary on the Rangers game. They said there's now a structure above Martindale so he isn't responsible for everything like he was.

That said, they've just allowed him to bring in Brian Rice as an assistant which I'm not sure they'd have allowed if he was close to the sack. I doubt Rice would have left Alloa if he thought there was a good chance of a management change at Livi soon either.

[Unseen work]

I said after the semi final he is a brutal manager.

His 541 formation will get the odd result especially with them having the quality of Miovski, Duk, McGrath who are able to bail them out.

But it is horrendous to watch and Aberdeen fans don’t like him.

On the face of it though he’s got them 3rd last season after going on a brilliant run, got some good results in Europe this season and then got them in a cup final. All in about 8 months so it’s hard to argue with it - I just think overtime it won’t last and as soon as they lose a couple he’ll be gone.

I would just much rather a Montgomery who has a clear style and wants to impose it on the opposition. At least if Monty loses a couple you can say well he’s trying the right thing/playing good football. I don’t think Robson would get that.

Aberdeen got pumped 6-0 but I bet if Celtic beat us it would be because the formation/us being too open. Aberdeen play with abour 5 5 defenders and it still happens to them.

On a side note it makes me wonder what type of manager Gray would be if he was making the decisions every week. Worked under 4 managers now - Ross, Maloney, Johnson and Montgomery. I feel like he’d have quite a good blend, whether he could execute it is another thing

The new owners are a funny one. If they do have money to invest then why block St Johnstone's approach? If Livvy go down this season it won't be because they haven't fought hard to stay up, but the bargain basin shopping for players and wages has finally caught up with them. Livingston have been another example in the Hamilton mould and stayed in the division longer than they should have - on merit too and generally away from the play offs. Sacking DM might turnout to be the worst thing they could do.

He’s working miracles with that club just keeping them in the top flight

We are also a hard watch. Wouldn't call our football good football, even though it is early days.

You could put last Saturday's game into that category but that's where it ends, Monty has had us playing some great stuff since his arrival, I'm not sure what you've been watching, if you've been watching it at all.

We have had snippets of good play under Montgomery but then we have good players. We had flashes of that under LJ and SDG too. We were absolutely brilliant against Luzern for example and our best performance in the league was under Gray at Pittodrie. I don't think we play good football under Montgomery on the whole, yet. It's largely been padestrian and boring. Playing out from the back and putting ourselves under pressure and creating very little chances.

I disagree, he's also been hindered by injury and sickness in his short tender, I think the guy is doing a brilliant job with the players at his disposal and when we're back to full strength he'll do even better.
I was listening to the pundits after a recent game and they were waxing lyrical about our style of play, opinions eh.
