i got told last night on good authoritie that Gers will announce mcciness soon it's all done and dusted just waiting on the announcement I don't have contacts inside the club or anything but did get told off a guy who claims he has lol one of those anyway thought I'd share it not overly exciting getting del in but it's a loss to the sheep and a gain to us he should bridge the gap a lot further than any of our previous so it's a step forward how far forward remains to be seen.

McInnes will come in, an appointment which is well overdue. Tony Docherty can stay in Aberdeen though, as Murty and Miller will be my choice in a similar arrangement to Smith, McDowell and McCoist.
His first job will be to sure up the back line which hemrages goals from the full back areas. Possibly start using Wilson on the left, Cardoso on the right and let Alves and McCrorie form a partnership in the middle. A more physical back 4.

Wilson and Carduso are bad enough in central defence never mind trying to play them at full back. Terrible shout.

I know he's not everyone's cup of tea, but what about Tav. He has been the one who has supplied an awful lot of balls that have turned into goals for us this season.
I would like to think there is a space for him as (yes he could do better defensively) I feel he brings something to the party.

Maybe unlikely but what are the thoughts of Gio taking over as his “bookie” odds have soared to second fav behind McI

Is this just a bookies ploy to get us rushing out to put a bet on

Right back position for Cardoso is nothing new. He has to drift there all the time when Tav leaves the space open. He can get a shift on when needed too. Wilson comfortable as anyone in the team on the left side. Need to be more physical. Just saying the two are bad enough is poor from you Rick.
Cletus. Tavernier is an important player for us this year. But I feel he should be used as a right mid or winger, and let Candeias control the left flank.

All I can say is remember when the bookies slashed the odds on RVP?

GvB ain't going to happen I'm afraid. It's going to be McInnes and apparently the deal is done. They're just letting Aberdeen make headway on finding a successor.

Yip if Minnie's deal was done and he wanted gers job why on earth would he sit on his ass waiting till the sheep finalise a deal for someone else I would be by see ya and walk from Aberdeen to govan

I think we need a manager who can work on a shoe string budget. Gio would be great or even Bilic or Pardew but could these guys do a job with no money?

GVB would be a bold appointment. I'll believe it when I see it! If so there must be money we don't know about

I am sure a winger with any pace at all would really dread facing Wilson at full back. Not.

4 centre halves as a back 4? That’s a terrible formation. Full backs are specialist roles where the players have to be mobile, reasonably quick and have a great engine. Neither Wilson or Cardoso fit that description

Does shipping 13 goals in 12 games fit the description Stewie? The last 2 managers have faced the guillotine due to neglecting the backline. Failing to address the problem of poor defending of full backs. So far this season we have witnessed mediocre wing men such as Christie Elliot and Richard Tait create havoc amongst our defence. If these defensive failures continue, then success is further away than we think. I have faith that Derek McInnes would address this immediately however, and we would quickly see a huge difference in goals conceded.
