Think the fact Mallam scores often is reason enough to put him in the team imo

I think for Mallan + Alan to co-exist, we need to adopt a 3-5-2.
————Porteous—-Jackson—-Hanlon
Gray———Mallan—-Vela—-Slivka——-Stevenson
—————————-Allan
——————Kamberi
Given Allan a free role to create havoc.
That formation gets our best players on the pitch. Horgan unlucky to miss out, but he can be a rotation option. Boyle obviously done for the season.
I've given him the benefit of the doubt up til now but that was a worrying match from a managerial point of view. The starting midfield was all wrong, the substitutions were baffling, and the players looked lost at times.
His decision to take Allan off was totally bizarre. 1-0 up with 30 odd mins to go against a poor side where we should be looking to kill off the game and we take off our most creative player. Everyone in the ground knew it was wrong.
His signings so far havent been anything to get excited about either.
I think we just need to accept that we need to sit tight, give the guy time to make a complete arse of it then eventually he will be away one way or another. He's not going anywhere in a hurry but hopefully this time next year we've started a season with the right guy in charge.
He should've been booked for that challenge that wiped Gray out. Maybe that's where I'm getting mixed up but he was definitely knackered and getting roasted and deservedly got subbed off.
He shouldn't have been knackered because he shouldn't have been on the wing but that's an entirely different debate altogether.
I said to my mate today with a out 15 to go this reminds of the Hamilton play off game you knew the goal
was coming but the players and manager looked incapable of preventing it. We offered zero in the last ten minutes it was hanging on with no idea of how best to do it.
I just don’t want us to become a circus again.
i thought we were past that and then there was the Lennon fiasco and now again talk of sacking our manager within 3 league games.
We need continuity, no other club in Scotland seems to have as many issues like we do when it comes to managers, losing the dressing room etc.
The buzz of Scottish cup, promotion, Europe and highest point tally has well and truly gone.
We need something, a couple of known quality signings would do. We’re relying heavily on Hallberg being exactly what we need and good.
We won’t be the only club though who’s fans are getting fed up with management. I have feeling the Aberdeen fans patience is wearing thin with mcinnes. It happens at every football club, I’m sure some Celtic fans were calling for Lennons sacking after the champions league disaster. When’s results improve fans quieten, when they don’t well ......
McInnes has been at Aberdeen about 6 or 7 years and enjoyed a bit of success, but for Heckingbottom I get the sense his face hasn’t fitted for too many from day one. He will always be one or two bad results away from a crisis with little room for error, and such a scenario is not sustainable long term. He won’t be afforded the good will of the fans that Lennon and Stubbs before him had during troublesome spells.
We had a solid end to last year, just support the team and the players and if we don’t succeed then so be it. He will get sacked if he underperforms but it isn’t in our interests to drag him down it is in our interests to support the team.

Thats the typa message which was given out when fenlon was in charge,
its the guys who boo that want to win the most. The doom and gloomers are the real fans, their daily mood coincides with the fortunes of the team. They are the guys who the club should and need to be listening too, not the happy clapping, Oh it is just a game of football brigade.
This is an interesting interview when he blamed everyone at the club and the fans for "downing tools" at the end of last season.
