Michael Grant has the exclusive, including quotes from Mark McGhee, in tomorrows Herald.  Looks like the wait could be over

His football isn't exactly shit, United arn't a shit club, probably just a bit shitter than us and smaller, levein done well at hearts aswell, also look at the team when Levein came in and look at it now, see what he done with a shit club with his shit football.

 

Also his SPL record is pretty good.

 

took over hearts halfway through 2000/01, they were 5th & ended up 5th,

2001/02 - 5th

2002/03 - 3rd

2003/04 - 3rd

 

took over united in 2006/07 when bottom after 12 games and being humped week in week out on a run of 3 wins in 30 games and got us to 9th comfortable, no relegation battle.

2007/08 - 5th & LCup Final (should have won)

2008/09 - 5th

 

OOps

The us bit was a mistake, the should have won bit is true, we they should have won.

So you want someone with a record when at his very best is no better than Jimmys. Are you high? He did well at Leicester eh?

 

Honestly Mini, you're a nice guy in person but your brain turns to shit when you're in front of a keyboard.

5 top 6 finishes and a cup final, oh aye, that's right Jimmy got us to a cup final didn't he?

5 out of how many?

Nae sure but he has gotten two out of two with United.

5 top 6 finishes and a cup final, oh aye, that's right Jimmy got us to a cup final didn't he?

 

No, but he took us to Dnipro, Madrid and Munich and gave us some of the most incredible European nights we've had at Pittodrie since the 80's. Levein probably doesn't even have a fucking passport.

I'd rather have Levein than McGhee.

 

 

But I'd rather have Jimmy than either of them.  JC's record is far more impressive than those two.  Last 32 of uefa cup (and the memories of Munich and Copenhagen games) pisses all over a league cup runners up spot.

No wonder nothing is good enough for you, still living in the 80s, typical dons fan.

Oh, that's right the record of the most defencive football ever seen, what was it one win out of a possible 8.

Jesus christ. Do you have any clue about Football at all.

 

And given the choice of watching us loose a cup final to the OF at Hampden, or losing to Bayern Munich in Munich? Easy choice.

 

As for your 'Transformed' the United team, go take a look at the Dons team pre-JC and look at who he brought in.

Compare the two managers budgets though Dave, Jimmy had more scope, Big Craig never.

Jimmy's spent more in 5 years than Levein has in 2.

 

No shit sherlock.

Aye, Eddie Thompson was really tight.

Eddie Thompson was chucking money at wages wasn't he?

 

I'm led to believe, he was still paying more of Lee Millers wages when he signed for us than we were.

How so?  Head to head, levein at a smaller club with a much smaller budget yet they can beat us, incidently when was the last time we beat DUndee United?

 

Poor fishing as usual.

We've consistently had better seasons than Dundee Utd while Calderwood and Levein have been in charge.

 

Plus, Levein's style of football is even worse than Calderwood's.

 

Have to disagree with Padre here I'm afraid!

I think Levein is better, you don't, fair enough, if Levein was here I'm sure we would finish third more regular than we did under jimmy, you dismiss this as fishing all you want, i know you can't back Jimmy up as he was shite, as for leveins style of football is was good enough to beat us several times, eh?

Over the course we still finished higher. That's what counts.

If you prefer a couple of wins over season long performances then fair enough.

Doesn't make Jimmy a better manager though, does it?

Yep.

 

Actually, yes it does ya tit!

Aye, course, finishing further down the table makes you a better manager

 

Anybody got Terry Butcher's phone number?
