Aberdeen about to name as their new manager.... (drumroll please)...Mr Colin Wanker.

I'm very disappointed with this news. Not least cos it means that Ireland might still appoint Neil fucking Lennon as our new international manager.

As a part time Aberdeen fan, I'm guttted.

BlackandWhitePaul · « **Reply #4361 on:** February 5, 2024, 11:50:55 am »

This is Colin Wanker's 20th managerial appointment, with Aberdeen becoming the 17th team he has taken charge of.

Warnock has had two spells at Huddersfield Town, Crystal Palace and QPR, plus stints with... deep breath...

Gainsborough Trinity, Burton Albion, Scarborough, Notts County, Torquay United, Plymouth Argyle, Oldham Athletic, Bury, Sheffield United, Leeds United, Rotherham United, Cardiff City and Middlesbrough.

How on Earth does this knacker keep getting football manager jobs?

Hasn't he got a decent record by "steadying the ship" for teams on the rocks, and then clearing off when they want to make a longer term appointment. Atleast that's what feels like recently.

To be honest, Colin does the job that he's brought in to do! I don't dislike him like other dinosaurs like Allardyce and Pulis who think they're above the level they're at.

He is a firefighter for clubs doing awful. And I can say this confidently as a follower of the SPL and Scottish football; hiring him as manager is of a much higher standard than all the other managerial dreck in that league. Warnock is basically Rinus Michels in comparison to the dire coaches in Scotland.

It's been quiet for 2 months apart from Colin Wanker getting a job.
I doubt it's anything to do with Hearts. Just not that many people care.

That Ref today was shocking.

Laughable penalties and the sending off was a joke.

I was think more about the arse cheek fans being awful quiet. Of course HMFC were involved in that I suppose.

One of the strangest episodes in Scottish football ever! I'm going to be honest here.... for all his faults, I can't help but like Colin.

It felt like he never really took the job seriously. I’m not a fan of him, all the Brexit stuff an example why, but I’ve never felt like he has delusions of grandeur like Hodgson and other shitty British managers.

This is barmy, if Motherwell vs Dundee can't be played later today, the SPFL are trying to force the match to be played behind closed doors at Airdrie, this is so SPFL can get all the matches played before the split
