Barebear 37 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Iv always been comfortable with the idea of Eck coming back. I’d have had him in when we took PC. It’s not a sexy appointment in the slightest. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The evidence in front of your eyes every week clearly tells you it is too much to hope for at this time. Perhaps at some point in the future it will be different but a team that just got humiliated AGAIN is unlikely to fulfil your ambitions for silky football. Perhaps we should be realistic and take one aspiration at a time. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,470 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Winning big games is what's needed. And beating all the diddy teams the vast majority of the time. I don't care if we play rubbish football, in all honesty. Winning comes first. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo79 15,470 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Surely the board will finalise the deal? DoF would only make recommendations, I think. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is something that could have been done weeks ago. Still doesn’t change the fact I’d be happy with Eck. I’d be happy with Gio, Carlo Ancelotti, Louis Enrique, Louis Van Gaal and Zidane, but we can only dream. Eck is realistic for me at this point in time, and a better option than McInnes. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannochsidebear 2,518 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 This is getting ridiculous now. It is all good and well taking a bit of time to ensure another mistake isn't made like the last time, but that goodwill only exists while the interim keeps winning. We now look like going to Dens under Murty again, where his side got soundly whipped back in March while we waited on us buying out Pedro's contract, with a dolly double header to quickly follow. If it works out that we appoint someone who was available from the outset (a McInnes or a McLeish for example) then the board and DOF look like amateur idiots, which I am sure they are not. I still have a little faith that we are going to appoint someone not linked and whose CV jumped out at them, due diligence done and the time taken turning out to be well spent, but that is probably more what I want to happen and not what i expect to happen. The Dolly fixtures should always have been the furthest away possible deadline for this to be concluded, and if Murty picks that side then major questions have to be answered. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against Hamilton I saw a team which could not pass the ball, could not tackle, could not control the ball and could not find the target. I expect too much. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
