The results since new year are to say that he wouldn't turn it around. He had nine chances to improve things and it didn't happen. Why would giving him more time be more positive than trying something new. Trying something new being a concept that he seemed incapable of comprehending as he churned out snoozefest after snoozefest.

It would have been worse surely had Cormack been speaking to potential managers while McInnes was still in place? There's every chance McInnes was told he could remain until the end of the season and declined. Cant imagine it'd be much fun going in front of the media to explain you've been sacked but are carrying on, likewise the players might lose respect for you. He also probably doesn't want another fourth place finish on his record. If it is Glass, then Aberdeen have actually moved very quickly here. Compare that to Hearts and how long it took then to get Daniel Stendal, Rangers when McInnes turned them down and they went the rest of the season with Graeme Murty, and Celtic who sacked Lennon a week before McInnes yet appear no closer to appointing someone.

Regardless of who the replacement is, really surprised at the action Cormack has taken. There is a real lack of foresight. If he knew he was going to be dispensing with McInnes why was the new manager not ready to go in the door before McInnes was out the end of Merkland Road? Many in the press have uttered the point that McInnes should have been given until the end of the season because who is to say he would not have managed to overtake Hibs and grab third place. Why then are we (seemingly) writing off this season by putting a novice team in charge until the end of the season when third place is deemed so important and we still have the Scottish Cup to compete in? Leaving it until summer until a new man is in place is jeopardising not only a potentially good finish to this season but also handicapping us getting a flying start to next season. The new manager will have to navigate a European tie before he even gets his feet under the desk. So much has been said about the need to win trophies yet this year's cup is so unimportant that we will just chuck the reserve team coach in charge for it? Bizarre.

Eh? Are Celtic reaping the benefits of Scott brown's coaching? What are you expecting? When do you ever hear of the good work of a youth team coach? The point is that Robson was brought in/kept on with the idea that he would progress with us. If he's being overtaken by a player with little or no coaching experience then we should look to remove him from the payroll. It reeks of the lack of planning at the club. If Robson isn't good enough to take on the assistant role at this stage then he's not going to be. The whole point in having Glass is that it's a planned, "internal" appointment. Brown as assistant is just making it up as you go along. I don't believe we'll get a good season out of Brown as a player. It was visible in the last game we played against them. Brown couldn't manage the ninety. That's in a team that can carry him in a three/five. He's simply of no use in our games against sides we expect to beat, where we need a sharp midfielder capable of covering ground.

Walter Smith might be dead according to Sportsound. So he's possibly joining Jim McLean in Hell as we speak.

I will support any new manager who comes in & gets us challenging for titles & winning cups, I'm no fussed who it is, as long as they bring success.
