Absolutely. Bizarre to turn it on him. It was actually the point at which he stepped down as Chairman that it started to turn to shit.

So make him an offer he cannot refuse and see what happens. Surely worth a punt? What a load of complete bollocks. How on earth have you come to that conclusion? So his level is 13 points above us and in the cup semi with significantly less resources that he would have at the Dons. So you have concluded that he would not be capable of more with (supposedly) better players at his disposal?

John McGlynn: Falkirk with one foot in the next round of the cup. Miles clear of the bottom six in the league. I mean, has anyone on the board even remotely considered the guy? Or does his passport being from here automatically disqualify him from being considered?

Here's the AI answer for you bud. A "square go" is a Scottish slang term for a fair, one-on-one, bare-knuckle fight between two people to settle a dispute without weapons or intervention. It is commonly used as a challenge in, or originating from, Glasgow to face someone directly.

Not saying it was intentional but it does not have to be and with the current handball rule as it is, I think it was pretty borderline whether the ref would give it or not. Put it this way, if he did point to the spot, VAR would not have overturned it.

Not sure if you are having a giggle Bertie, but 'held our own'? Apart from the Nisbet header in the second half last night (and the penalty obviously), we have not come close to scoring in 3 hours of fitba? Celtic should have had 4 last night. Maeda missed a one on one with Mitov and Milne was awfully fortunate not to have his hand ball deemed a penalty. On Saturday, Hearts should have had 3 against us. Kabore missed a sitter early on as did Braga in the second half. Struggling to see how on earth you are working out that we held our own, unless you mean held our own hands over our eyes whilst watching? I certainly did that for long periods in the second half last night.

What a weegie term. You should be on an official warning for using that on a Dons page (by ra way).

Said by the man who has basically been cheerleading them on to win the league this last week. Bet you’re sitting at hame wearing your brown brogues with your flute in one hand, signed photo of super Ally in the other whilst listening to Tina Turner full blast.

Wanting your local side to have a Scottish core is only natural, it is, in my view, what identifies them as YOUR team. I don’t think there is anything particularly xenophobic in that attitude. In the same way, I’d like to see Real Madrid with a Spanish manager and mainly Spanish players. The abolition of the three foreigner rule is when football started to become shit and the European cups lost their magic because it was no longer nation against nation, just 11 random players against 11 other random players. Your view may differ, but I would prefer a Dons team full of Scots that finishes fourth in the league than a team with nine foreigners that goes on to win the Champions League for us. For me, that is Hun behaviour and akin to cheating.

Yes, absolutely I know you meant morally but I totally disagree. Sounds heartless but his medical issues ain't really our problem. Horneland is not a long serving Dons employee who we should feel like we have some kind of obligation to. We should just be moving on to the next person down the list. It's not exactly Carlo Ancelotti we are talking about here.

Next four fixtures: Hearts away - gubbed Celtic home - gubbed again Falkirk home - probable win Rangers away - gubbed once more Edit - If correct with these predictions, I would make that 8 points from a possible 42.

I am not sure why it is the "right thing" to be waiting for this dude. As things stand, form suggests the club is sleep walking towards a relegation play off. We don't owe this guy any kind of loyalty or sentiment. Just get someone else FFS.

It was a dive. Just had a chance to watch this back. It's actually not a foul. If you watch the angle from behind the goal, Mikey Moore only falls over because his right foot kicks the Livi defender. Very deceptive unless you watch about 40 slomo replays.

No, but it makes the here and now a lot more interesting. Fitba is becoming stale and stagnant, the same teams winning season after season all around Europe. Sport is pointless when you can award the trophy before the competition even starts. It would just be great to see something different and a few old firm tears.

So you’re basically just scared of a bit of healthy competition in case your team does not win.

It’s a fantastic day. Great to see the old firm squirming. Hearts have given our league the shake up it needs. Would you prefer another 40 years of the same sides winning the title? This is the most exciting title race in decades. Supporting the old firm just because it would take away the fact the Dons are the last other side to win the league is just sad, bitter and pathetic.

Liverpool goal disallowed v Notts Forest. Oh my god. The game has officially died.

There are plenty of options. From the more experienced like Stevie Clarke, John McGlynn or Michael O'Neill. A current SPL guy such as Robinson, or someone lower down the chain like Scott Brown or Gary Naysmith. I'd argue that any of the above would stand a better chance of success than taking in someone from Norway that knows very little about either our club or about fitba in this country.

The "strategy" that Deadly Dave has implemented makes all of that very difficult to achieve on a consistent basis. We want to sell on all of our best talent so as soon as we produce a few decent players they are offski. It means you will have one good season followed by one shite season and so on. You are never going to get consistency if you are changing out half of your squad every season. Even just the loans make consistency a problem. Think I am right in saying we have signed seven players on loan this season. How can you get any kind of cohesion going when you only have players for six months at a time? You can never build for the long term.

His CV is very underwhelming. Must be about the equivalent of if Callum Davidson were to get the Rosenborg job. Pretty obvious Horneland would be nowhere near the top of the list if Lutz had not been around and it makes a mockery of the whole recruitment process. Said it before on here but Lutz may as well manage the team himself. He's now on the bench at matches, he has already told us how we are going to play, we are signing the players only he has seen play and now about to appoint a manager because he has been trailing him for ages. Really hope this falls through and we revert to someone who has experience of managing in Scotland.

Alarm bells are ringing already with that line. Are we just writing off this season? If not, there must be a hell of a lot less risk playing someone like Polvara/Shinnie/Nilsen for the last 15 games than taking some dude over from Germany that has barely kicked a ball all season and never played in this country before. He got his sole Nigeria cap aged 17, nearly 9 years ago. He sounds like the latest in a loonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng line of players we have signed because he was once promising and was signed by a big club so that automatically must mean he is good......Palaversa, Lazetic, Karlsson, Aouchiche, Gyamfi................... Remember this: Starting to wonder if someone in the recruitment department is on the wacky backy. We all know deep down this boy is gonna be shite. Going throw this out there but is there any less risk in the transfer market by just asking Peter Leven if he has seen anyone in the Championship that he thinks can do a job at a higher level?

Hearts pretty direct at times. Not hearing too many moans from the fans about their playing style

I think signing players without a manager just brings more potential problems. For starters, what kind of player is signing for a club without knowing who his boss is going to be? More importantly, when the new manager comes in, what if he just does not rate the guy? We are unlikely to win the league , probably won't get relegated, just hold fire for a minute and wait to get the new guy's opinion before signing anyone - even if that means waiting until June. No one really wants to qualify for Europe anyway.
