Aberdeen only 2 points behind us with a game in hand. They’ve got a good squad and any semi decent manager will make them a decent side.
If they do win the game in hand it puts us 8th.
We really need to step up and starting winning games. 6 wins out of 22 is laughable.
Neil Warnock being touted for the Aberdeen job.
Could see him doing well in a 6 month stint until the end of the season
Pretty strange nickname for a manager who turn down the Rangers job to stay at Aberdeen.Quote:

McInnes favourite
Yeah he doesn't seem to have left too many fond memories in the North East judging by their fan sitesQuote:

He's remembered as more of an Alex Miller figure by the looks of it - dour, pragmatic, unexciting, loved too much by the Weegie press
Yeah I do find that very strange that it appears to be the case for at least some of their fans.Quote:

Hasn't exactly worked out well for rhemQuote:

Totally agree Jim!Quote:

He was lined up for the job before Robson got itQuote:

If this was the case seeing out the season the way he started it with Kilmarnock might seal the deal whereas a failed return to Aberdeen m could quash his chances.
Got a lot of time for Lennon, so for that reason I’ve no desire to see him back in the dug out in Scotland anywhere else.
Yup. I think he'd do well there.Quote:

Another Lemmy disaster waiting to happen, can't see that working out well for anyone if they appoint him.Quote:

At this stage of a season NL would be a disaster for the sheep imo. Hope they appoint him
Dick Campbell appointed East Fife manager

I'd be amazed if Derek Adams is still in a job this time tomorrow.
