according to a post on the bbc 606 website: "Sorry to disappoint everyone but Dingus did in fact take training this morning and is now on his way to take in the gers v hibs game in preparation for saturday - this is 100 per cent accurate"

That is just wrong on so many levels.

aberdeen will seek scotland under-21 coach to take over as new manager at pittodrie Stark reality facing Dons as McGhee implodes By Paul Third and Michael Gannon Published: 10/11/2010 The Aberdeen board has identified Billy Stark as one of its leading candidates to succeed Mark McGhee as Dons manager. McGhee's tenure at Pittodrie has not yet been officially ended but he surely must go. Last night's 2-1 defeat by Inverness was the final chapter, following on from the Dons dreadful 9-0 humiliation at Celtic. Inverness inflicted an eighth Dons defeat in 10 SPL matches with a first-half penalty from Adam Rooney and a late winner from Grant Munro either side of a Andrius Velicka equaliser. A parting of the ways is now expected in the next 48 hours once severance negotiations can be concluded for McGhee, his assistant Scott Leitch and fellow coach Colin Meldrum. The process of sourcing a replacement has already began and Stark is in the frame to succeed McGhee at Pittodrie. The 53-year-old former St Mirren, Aberdeen, Celtic, Kilmarnock, Hamilton Academical and Kilmarnock midfielder has impressed the Dons directors with the work he has done with the Scotland under-21 side. Stark has been in the position since 2008, having previously managed Morton, St Johnstone and Queen's Park, and, having taken the young Scots to the European under-21 championship play-offs last month, his stock has never been higher. The former Dons favourite was linked with the Hibernian job last month before the Edinburgh club appointed Colin Calderwood. Dons director of football Willie Miller is a short-term option to return to the dugout while a successor for McGhee is found although the club is also considering putting captain Paul Hartley in charge on a caretaker basis alongside an experienced assistant – with former Dundee manager Jocky Scott a potential candidate. Another former Don, Ross County manager Derek Adams, has a clause in his contract which would allow him to leave Dingwall should an offer come from an SPL club. Adams is also in contention, but whether his father George, who serves as director of football Victoria Park, would also move to Pittodrie with him is unclear, as a move for father and son would surely bring Miller's tenure at the club to an end. Any new manager would need to galvanise the Dons support. Only 5,917, the lowest of the season, turned up at Pittodrie for what was a tense evening. Aberdeen went behind in the first half when referee John McKendrick awarded a tame penalty to Inverness after Darren Mackie was judged to have pushed Munro in the penalty area. Adam Rooney converted but the Dons struck back after the interval when Andrius Velicka, on as a substitute for the injured Mackie, calmly grabbed his first goal for the club to level. The Highlanders stuck a winner with nine minutes remaining when Munro pounced to head home.

Yeah Butcher was basically re-opening the wound, rubbing said salt into it and laughing whilst he did it. No respect at all, considering he'd have to be a martian to not have noticed what is at stake as far as the McGhee camp goes . . .

And now, the end is nigh, and so we face the final curtain . . . . .

Seems to me like a replay of the Willie Miller days . . . .shit hot player . . .shit manager . . . same words, different name

I could hear him getting abuse and booed from the south stand

I started to write an email airing my views to the club this morning, but I got as far as "Aberdeen FC are shit" and didn't think that was a constructive opening line. Couldn't think what else to write. . . . . . . .

That's my point . . . he has a proven track record.

Well here's hoping the team play their socks off tonight and pick up the three points, cos we sair need it!!!

They should put Lenny Taylor, Head of AFC Youth Academy in charge. He was my depute head at Kemnay Academy and he will certainly get them sorted out.

well as long as your seams seem straight

In/Oot: In Prematcher: hame for ma tea Match: South Stand screaming at a bunch of idiots wearing red shirts Postmatcher: hame, trying desparately to convince myself that they will yet turn a corner, and that we are in the transitional period which replaces the transitional period which never was . . . . . .

Even people who don't follow football are coming into my office and taking the piss outta me and that's been fairly constant since 7am this morning!!! I've had several offers of a group of 11 men who would play better than the current lineup. Roll on 4pm when I can escape . . . Dad's fixing my washing machine for me, and he's offered to paint green stripes on it before bringing it back to me . . . .GRRRR

That makes two of us then. Although I would be very easily talked out of going, especially as the weather's likely to be as crap as the football. This is the first time I'm probably about ready to admit I'm embarrassed to say I'm a dons fan.

You've been taking too many delusional happy pills me thinks

Quiet weekend, never mind just Friday night. Last weekend moved intae new hoose so it WISNAE quiet. Fk do I need a rest . . . :o :o

And we're even colder.... I'm dreading tomorrow.

Hope there will photographic evidence of you being a lady for one night only?

As Mike & The Mechanics sang "All I need is a miracle". Think that sums up the situation to a T

In/Oot: Oot Prematcher: Moving House During Match: Moving House, putting my foot down and insisting the radio is changed to the fitba much to the disgust of the "removal men", AKA Dad and BF who don't like fitba Postmatcher: Hopefully sitting in new house with feet up armed with takeaway and beers and NOT still searching for the box the TV remote is in Prediction: 3-1 Aberdeen

That was a good game in a transitional period of transition tonight. COYR

Couldnae hiv pit it better masel! COYR

C'Mon the Dons! Yesssss!!! We did it And it wisnae that caul' at Pittodrie either. Double yes!
