Mentorred Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Is that a pityful attempt at humour? Afraid so and looking at your posts you are new so you better get used to it here. All I have heard/read is the rumour that was on here midweek that he will be gone tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasgowdon Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Richard Gordon implied there will be a change of manager. When questioned about leaving he said: "Only time will tell." Asked if it was a done deal he hesitated before saying "I've got a two year contract". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGaffer Posted May 24, 2009 Author Share Posted May 24, 2009 Richard gordon has just said on the radio that "it is my understanding that jimmy calderwood's time at aberdeen is now over" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montana Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Certainly sounds like he's going from what Richard Gordon said. Although Calderwood is maintaining he has a contract and its about talking to a few people??? He is not coming out and saying - am staying. Between the lines it must be he is getting the dunt or someone else has come in for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if he has a pay off clause if there isn't a cup final this season or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penfold Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 He is gone. Good decision. Europe will make us a slightly more attractive option to anyone coming in. Let's just hope it's not fucking McGhee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGaffer Posted May 24, 2009 Author Share Posted May 24, 2009 Possibly a manager who can see how bad mackie and foster really are and who can bring in a couple of half decent players Craig levein? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CtS Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Very worrying news in my opinion. Seems certain now that Calderwood is offski, the hate campaign against him has done the trick. My biggest fear is next season it will be "----- must go", then the season after that "------ must go" and so on. Do we really want to be back there? I know I don't. Jimmy Calderwood, thank you Sir for the tremendous effort you put into Aberdeen, for returning some respectability back to our club, and for some of the happiest memories I've had at Pittodrie for many a season. A very happy day just turned sour for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montana Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Wouldn't surprise me if its Willie Miller to save the club money.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baggy89 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Is that confirmed then, JIG (Jimmy Is Gone)? Have to say wouldn't be dissapointed with Levein but doubt it'll be him. I'd like to see Steve Cotterill to sort out the boozing and big time charlies as well as get the maximum from the players at his disposal. Anyway I'm away to check the mass wank and self congratulation over on the hat . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree to a certain extent, JC has taken us further then any of our recent managers but can he take us that extra bit further(Silverware, Europe every season without the last day nail bitter), what worries me is this boards track record in appointing new managers.

Mackie's ace! Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Fucking hell, seems I was a bit premature in renewing my season ticket this afternoon. If it's McGhee I'll be furious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownyBrown Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Only if there is a significant step change in the quality of manager coming in will I be pleased about this news. Anything else and its either stagnation (again) or back to the Ebbe days. I'm not always JC's biggest fan, but he must get credit where it is due. And today it is due. If it is a fact that he is gone, it'll be interesting to find out how he is going. It seems to me that its only Aberdeen FC that has contracts in place that are not worth the paper they are written on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
