Mackie's ace!

Yes, his tactics have been wrong all along. I can't believe he got it so wrong, and we're playing in Europe next season instead of the first division.

See I don't share this hostility to McGhee.

I hope JC's legacy isn't a terminally divided support, but I doubt it, despite what Stoney and others may say

I was only joking...kinda.

It's nothing against McGhee personally. It's the fact that I don't rate him as any better than Calderwood yet those who have been so vocally JMG this season think he is the messiah, and his record certainly doesn't prove that (knocked out the cups to first division teams on more than one occasion). I will support him if he comes in, naturally, and will be delighted if he does well - but like Al he is definitely not my preferred choice. I don't want anyone from within the SPL, we need somebody fresh. I also don't necessarily agree with appointing "legends" just because they were great players for us, it inevitably sours a relationship. See C Brewster and Dundee United as an example. If McGhee was to come in, and did badly, it would be interesting to see if he got a hard time from the same fans who gave Jimmy a hard time, or if not being a fat orange hun will make any difference.

I don't know if these JIGers exist but I do know (hope) that all those on here who have defended JC over the last 2 years will give the new man their full support and backing (unless it is Jim Jeffries) and will refrain from the constant "told you so sniping" that the JMGers (sic) seem to delight in, hopefully

Fuck that! If Mark McGhee is manager and we finish in the bottom 6 next season I'll be right in there with the told you so!

Don't joke.

I was thinking earlier about what I was doing 5 years ago around this time. Thinking that Paterson would get given until Christmas to sort it out...

Will just be interviews with players etc.

 

Just watched the video of jimmy leaving. There's more people there chanting his name than there was at the alleged protest.

It doesn't sound like it'd just be player stuff...

The home support must have been about 13.5k ish I reckon. I thought that the ground looked fuller than that but it was a good crowd for the last day/Sunday 1pm ko/bank holiday weekend.

Yeah saw him as well. Thought it was a poor away support for last game of the season.

Boro down too. Wonder if my nephews will keep supporting them? One of them went in the huff when they lost the Uefa cup final a couple of years ago, relegation will devastate him!

The season ticket holders thing is interesting. How many might hold off renewing (on the cheap prices available until Saturday) until a manager is in place? I certainly wouldn't have renewed until a manager was in place had I not been so eager after the game today.  

22nd June or 17th July will be the draw for our round but in either case we'll be drawn vs 2 possible sides so we wont know straight away.

 

If we're away in the first leg we will only have 1 week to arrange things.

 

Moan Moan Moan

Do you mean those are the dates we could be playing?

When is the actual draw made?

No, it's not a reason to continue but it was in response to caledonia's post as to why I wouldn't necessarily look forward to McGhee being announced as manager.

Well what evidence is there that Mark McGhee, for instance, would do better than what we have in the last 5 years?

Not if you get made redundant.

Would Kyle have scored our first goal today?

You will get the economy you deserve then.

+1!

Tell you what, since your success rate is so good, how about you try to get Gordon Brown to quit?

Hmm.

That article says Seve and Smith are leaving. Not that we didn't already know that.

It just seems like a band of disorganised misfits can have any sort of influence on who stays and goes that this club. This could be the start of a very slippery slope.

The power of the internet.

JMG, after all, he got us to Europe and we finished 4th, which is shit.

Quite a turnaround from when we were bottom of the league though.

 

It'll be him.

I'll be straight down for a refund if that's the case!

Fucking hell, seems I was a bit premature in renewing my season ticket this afternoon.

If it's McGhee I'll be furious.

Just saw an advert for this on STV on Monday. Looks like it might have a bit about Aberdeen on it.
