Kowalski Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I believed it was time for a change of management, however... The majority of fans wanted him gone too. Source? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_min Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 His cup record was fucking ding, Dave. There's no grey area there. Don't need to. It wa QotS. Atrocious doesn't even begin to cover it. He had some fantastic results, a 3-2 win at Tannadice, a 1-0 win at Parkhead, Copenhagen, Dnipro, Bayern. However, the bad was fucking awful. 3-0 to Hearts, 4-1 to Hibs, not to mention the "Big 3". Completely agree with QoTS though, won't deny I was hoping to see him hanging from the Castlegate by the time I got home that day. But this is all in the past and has as much relevance to this thread as me telling you that I just got a parcel from DHL delivered right now. I'd prefer Raith as Airdrie is a complete shithole, however I'd be okay if we got them so that I can complete my Lanarkshire hat-trick so to speak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rocket debris Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Source? Your suggestion that there is debate possible on this point reveals either that you place too much emphasis on the minute percentage of Dons fans that frequent webchatspeaksites or that you live far awy from the North East, where most Dons fan live, and are not in tune with them.

Edinburghdon Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 What was the specific point that you considered "ridiculous"? I hope your not sitting waiting for a response, it may take quite a while to trawl through all 250 odd posts of yours to find out just which one is the most ridiculous...

But this is all in the past and has as much relevance to this thread as me telling you that I just got a parcel from DHL delivered right now. There was no irrelevant context that sparked the extraordinary reaction. As always, there is an alternative view. With this insane differentiation being sought between "rival" webchatspeaksites and perhaps also differentiation being sought by reason of geography, with this insane delusional stance that many here have taken with regard to our actual history and with the insane denial that some are suffering from, it appears that everyone else can be called a cunt but that poor little Jimmy is immune from any criticism, despite his conduct both on and off the pitch being deserving. I was well aware of the extraordinary sensitivity on here but my point was not a gratuitous attack on him. For the record, I posted on the busier site (that many of you seem to detest) before Saturday that booing him would be retarded. I agreed with most of you in this regard. It is history. Two words, adjective and accurate, provoked a remarkable defence and brought it way off topic. Move on. If you really think there is a MMG group, wise up. Yes there are retards on that site but lets face it, there's a couple of beauts on here too, but to generalise against the busiest AFC site and contrive this differentiation between you and them is nuts.

Yes there was. The only reason JC could be brought up and it been relevent was if we'd drawn Killie, we haven't, so move on. I got bored reading the rest of your post. I have a parcel to open.

(I'm speaking moreso of the domestic cups, of course) Absolutely. To get to a final is seen as an achievement... by a loser. It is a paradoxical but profoundly true and important principle of life that the most likely way to reach a goal is to be aiming not at that goal itself but at some more ambitious goal beyond it.

Arnold Toynbee English historian & historical philosopher (1889 - 1975) We should be winning the league then? Are you so scared that McGhee is not actually the saviour of Aberdeen Football Club and that he has so far proved that he no better manager than Calderwood and that is the reason you continually make references to Calderwood and bring up this tired old argument? A bit of chip on the shoulder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
