Jute Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I just find it stunning that board are prepared to back McGhee even if he takes us to first relegation in the clubs history. How can they possibly stand by a manager who manages to relegate a team that finished 4th the season before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kowalski Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Heaven forbid we get relegated, but there's no way his job is safe if we do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsr Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 I agree, I think the club are just saying that as they don't seriously think we'll be brought into a relegation scrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasgowdon Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I'll only <i>really</i> worry about relegation if we don't win on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Padre™ Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I agree, I think the club are just saying that as they don't seriously think we'll be brought into a relegation scrap. Well they need to open their eyes. We're already in it. Anyway, if that's Millers attitude on this then he should be sacked at the same time as McGhee. If we lose on Saturday I expect to see both of them being handed their P45's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redordead Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 " given the dressing room " 4 little words right in the middle which say it all. He knows they don't give a fuck, he can't make them do so and is resigned to them dragging him along until the campaign ends. Grow some balls man!

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 In Mizer's defense there's not exactly a lot of grounds for optimism being generated either by Dingus or within the corridors of power at Pittodrie. Regarding the playing staff, even the usual suspects like Deek Dung seem to have been struck down by silence just now. Mizer is a malcontent. True fact. He wasn't happy until JC got sacked and then he took a particularly disgusting glee in his demise and now he's unhappy with the result of what gave him and many others such happiness.

So what would you like him to do once he's grown these balls? What realistically could he do differently at the current time other than throw in the youth team on masse?

What realistically could he do differently at the current time other than throw in the youth team on masse? It's true to say there is probably very little he can do with his current group of players but unless we suddenly find a few miilion under Pittodrie to make wholesale changes to the squad, which was never an option, that is what he has to deal with. The same that he has had to deal with since day one. I love the twisted logic in play here, a squad that finished last season 4th, now take it and change it, because the basis of it wasn't good enough? Perfect sense. That and the recent "we're about where we expected to be". Yes, I'm sure an impression would have been made to board members at the start of the season had "We expect to be relegation candidates towards the end of the season" been expressed. Right from the start McGhee and the board knew he had what he had. Now we are relying upon the return of the professionalism of a squad who have shown very little throughout a thoroughly cowardly and bawless season from virtually all concerned. McGhee has proven he cannot coax that from them, it will have to come entirely from the players. I have little hope of that based upon a season thus far greatly characterised by cowardice and poor direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did Young ever get dropped after a run of a few decent performances?!?! Then again, why is Kerr still captain!?!?!? Why am I still suprised that McGhee is insane?!?!?
