I think this pretty much sums it up for me. What annoys me the most is the audacity that he possesses to even mention himsef in the same light as Walter Hun Smith and Gordon ginger man Strachan. These two are winners, that win things. We are a club that expect to be at least challenging for trophies (cups not the league) and it just feels that he has a distinct lack of respect for us, the fans of Aberdeen Football Club with his ramblings in the press. I am resigned to the fact that he will not be going anywhere any time soon, but alas I shall not be returning to pittodrie until he leaves (we'll see if I actually stick to that). But I feel by actually going along to Pittodrie, that it acts as a sign that I am willing to forgive him for his actions. I don't know if this makes a little if any sense, but its just how disillusioned I currently feel. Im sick of this merry go round, and whilst I want us to qualify for the Europa league, I can't just help but think that much like last time, it will just paper of the huge cracks within our club.

Couldn't have put it any better myself and saddens me to think that we know the club will react in this manner. As I mentioned in another post the club don't know what the club is about anymore, they are turning fans away from the club by carrying out their apparent lack of care for a club that is loved by the most important people to them, the fans.

I'm getting sick and tired of these of bloody articles in the paper. Of all the articles the only one that did the fans justice in any shape or form is the Graham Spiers one. But then again, I suppose its not surprising considering Jimmy's cronnies in the various media departments. 3 results out of 219? You are kidding yourself on Jimmy, these were the final straw for many fans. Lets face it, you don't lose the support of the fans after 3 games. WAKE THE FUCK UP JIMMY.

Good race today, was going to make it up for the live showing but failed to wake up after getting to bed at 4.30. What an ending to the race!

Completely agree with your post and especially the highlighted bit. I think thats been the most frustrating thing with Calderwood, his lack of humility and honesty. There is no way that there will be many people there to support JC next week, and tbh I don't know if he will realise he's lost the fans until he's sacked! His ego appears to be that big. This article really pisses me off and its something that me and TC were discussing last night. No-one outwidth the fans, know our club anymore. The board clearly don't understand the fans, the management certainly don't, and neither do the players (bar possibly Mackie and Duffers).

Yeah you tell him But I wholeheartedly agree with what you've said

Looks like an awesome start to this season! Great to see if back on BBC Brawn GP look like they are going to give the establishment a good run for their money! Hopefully this will be the season we get to see what the real Jenson Button is made of and whether or not he has the skills to win a couple of rases.

How the fuck would this be a snap decision anyway, he's fucked up every domestic cup run we've had ffs! Especially in the last 3 years.

That I don't disagree with, but he does seem quite eloquent and comes across quite well in the press.

I see Craig Levein is backing JC and saying the club should ignore the fans calling for his head!

Aye that was Paterson, and as FJ correctly says, the other way a reversal of the 2-3 result, as Bellamy had a stormer, Pasquinelli scored both our goals?

23. Name dropping managers in different leagues that he is "friends" with.

Good strong message, I just hope the club actually take it seriously. Something needs to be done, but i'm not too sure if it should be now or at the end of the season

18. Aberdeen 4 - Smeltic 2

21. Sloppy

What an absolute load of bull that story is. Christ, the bigger picture is we're shite in cups and go out to teams we shouldn't do and generally don't set the heather alite in the league. Attacking football? You are having a laugh. Same old Jimmy, same old story. I just pray to fuck he's gone by the summer no matter what happens between now and then. You've done your bit Jimmy but we can't keep building a new team. The buck stops with you, whilst you've provided us with some awesome highs, you're beginning to provide us with far too many lows and still speak shite in the press. I agree wholeheartedly with the article by Crighton and I generally do think he speaks what most of us are thinking at the times. I think most of us felt some optimism coming into and during January (Hamilton game aside) and I think he's been very consistent with JC's tenure, inconsistent (if that makes sense?).

Naturally, but as I said, I thought he looked far more comfortable and competent in midfield. I genuinly thought he'd never played right back before in his life! That's how bad he was. Yes he's young, but as I said, he knew nothing about positional marking or awareness. I think he gave one guy about 10/15m of space when you could see the ball was going to go there. But i'm not sure how much this was to do with the tombola man's tactics because the players looked lost that night.

Apart from TC who thought he had a good game

Can't believe the challenge on Dargo!

According to a guy on MAD (who has a mate that's a city fan) he doesn't even know his own best position. Probably why he came up here to play Jimmy's Totaal Voetbal I thought he looked fine against Smeltic at Pittodrie and Rangers when he came on in Midfield, maybe a bit hesitant at times but knew how to pick a pass. His positional awareness just doesn't seem to be of a RB', especially at St. Midden.

I can't believe so many folk have gone for bottom six I predicted we'd finish fifth with Hearts finishing third, and looks like that will sadly come true. But to say we're gonna be bottom six, sheesh it would really have to go tits up for that!

I see Vidal has been included in the England U-20 squad and Aluko is only a reserve?!? They must know something we don't. All I know is the boy isn't a right back! Midfielder possibly.

What's wrong with the other birds! Racist I look forward to watching it on tuesday or wednesday!

I know I predicted us to lose, and had we played a better team there is no doubt we would have. It was very much a point gained against hibs, but I was merely pointing out that I think its a sad state of affairs that he said (if he did indeed say it in the manner quoted) that it spurred them on. To what exactly? Great football and a glorious win for the Dons? But as I said, at least we didn't lose.

Exactly, couldn't have put it better myself.
