Think Goodwin will be a good appointment for Aberdeen. I’d ideally have liked him to still potentially be an option for us going forward, but I’d rather they appointed him than JR.

Management is unbelievably tough these days, as the press and social media constantly remind the world of your latest failure, and that’s what defines you - even if you’ve a really good track record.
McInnes at Aberdeen was unbelievably consistent, Dons fans would have given up limbs to have the nine years that they had before he was appointed.
On top of that, he turned down approaches from the likes of Rangers and Sunderland. Yet one bad run and he was out the door - even though they were nine points clear in 4th at the time.
Fans often bemoan a lack of loyalty in football, but they simultaneously create a climate that ensures that any manager performing well will immediately jump at any better offer that comes along.
Aberdeen will find that out, and I suspect we will too.Last edited by Stevie Reid; 18-02-2022 at 12:46 PM.

Aberdeen are daft going for Goodwin instead. It smacks flavor of the month and little else.

Jack might prove a thorn in our side at St Mirren too!

They sacked a highly successful manager in McInnes with a much better track record than Jack Ross because their fans thought his football was crap and they’d got bored of it.
To then go and get a manager who was heavily criticised for his style of play at his last club but without such a good track record wouldn’t have went down very well with their fans I wouldn’t think. Rightly or wrongly, they’d just look at him as a lesser McInnes.Last edited by Paulie Walnuts; 18-02-2022 at 03:57 PM.

Don’t think he’ll get a bigger job than the ones he’s had in Scotland or England.

Ross finished 7th, 3rd then left us in 7th. He never won anything and has a lower PPG average by a decent bit and a lower win percentage by a decent bit compared to McInnes. His teams also had a better goal difference over his whole tenure than JR did at Hibs.. That’s despite the fact McInnes managed nearly 4 times the amount of games JR did.
The job McInnes done at Aberdeen and the job Ross done at Hibs aren’t even close. McInnes wins that hands down. His worst finish was 7th in a season where he was in the job a month. Other than that he never finished below 4th. He was even sacked in 4th if I remember correctly.
McInnes’ record beats JR in pretty much every measure I can think of and a lot of them fairly comfortably.Last edited by Paulie Walnuts; 18-02-2022 at 05:44 PM.

Ross got Alloa then St Mirren promoted, took over us bottom of the table and eventually got us third and numerous cup semi finals and final.
The last season they where both managers of the sides JR had us finish 3rd, McIness was sacked.
I would much rather employ Ross than DM. It's why DM is now at Kilmarnock and Ross is turning jobs down in the league above.

I’m not sure Aberdeen fans would be harking back to jobs he done in the lower leagues 5 years ago or the fact he got to cup semis/finals and lost them. They’d be looking at the most recent job he done at Hibs, a similar sized job to theirs, the fact that a lot of fans hated his style of football and comparing it to McInnes at them. He doesn’t come out favourably in that regard.

The managerial merry-go-round chunters on. What unimaginative appointments by the famous Aberdeen FC and by Dundee too.
At least we went outside the envelope a bit.

Ross had Hibs easily above Aberdeen, even at the time he got sacked ahead of them and in another final. They also sacked DM far too soon.
Goodwin has been no bad for a couple of months, is he an upgrade on DM or a better choice than Jack? I don't think so.

I don’t think Goodwin is an upgrade on either of them either, I don’t think he’s anything special for them appointment wise. I don’t think JR would have been either though. If I was an Aberdeen fan I’d be not be massively excited whether it had been Goodwin or JR.

Jim goodwin will be a top class manager I personally think he will leave Aberdeen for a big job down south I think he will do really well there.

If you where an Aberdeen fan would you be happier with Goodwin, McIness, Ross or Maloney?

Fair enough. No idea how you get that conclusion but your opinion mate.
