"The board of directors will have further meetings and discussions regarding Mark McGhee over the next couple of days.

 

"No decision has yet been taken on the manager's future,"

But even with a high degree of research and insight, it's still a gamble. Take Mourinho, Sir Alex and Wenger out of the equation and who is ever a nailed on certainty to succeed anywhere?  In saying that, I do get the point you're making, it is uninspiring but it is nowhere near as uninspiring as our team is now.

 

Agreed on all fronts. A big part of the reason why I am choosing to take a more 'understanding' position on this is that I am pretty numb to anything and everything linked with Aberdeen and Scottish football at the moment. I have surprised myself with how little I was affected by the 9-0 at the weekend. I patiently await inspiration with little sense of belief it will arrive too soon, certainly can't see it coming at Ibrox this weekend. 

Rumour which has allegedly come from a reliable source, doing the rounds at my work just now is that McGhee and Leitch are going to be sacked tonight and are to be replaced by Miller and Hartley

Hello All,

 

Just signed up to the site. I have read your posts for years though.

 

I am so sick fed up of AFC's board as per usual they come out with this dross which as usual says alot without actually telling us anything. I never wanted Caldo sacked as we couldn't afford the 800'000 it cost us to get MM now we have to pay 300k to 400k to get rid of Mcghee. Just think what we could have done with that plus whatever our next shite manager will cost in compo (depending on who it is). We are getting affa close to 1.5 mill in managers!

 

Welcome aboard Tommy!

Thanks lads. Thought it was about time i started annoying people with my opinions.

The BBC Sport Homepage ticker has:

 

Mark McGhee will remain Aberdeen boss for the forseeable future, BBC Scotland understands.

 

Is this really telling us anything we don't know in that he's in charge for Saturday or does it mean he's got til at least Christmas, potentially.

I can only think that this means he has survived and will be in charge post ibrox.  It would appear the board has made it's decision at last. 

Jesus wept.

If we get relegated then the board will get the blame for not acting decisively after the worst defeat in our history.

Really fucked off.

I'm assuming they realise crowds will continue to be very low for the forseeable future.
