Hearts v St. Mirren We've already beaten the other Hearts team in the cup. Love it if we can make Neilson look miserable

Latest paper rumour Malky Mackay tipped for Aberdeen job despite 'baggage' as Neil Lennon and Scott Brown management duo mooted I think he's doing a good job at RC

Stevie Clark more likely....

Serious question... How long is the list of potential next manager that the Board has right now? Ok, maybe not that serious. Trouble is there are not many up and coming prospects with links to us like JG was...

Brandon Barker

Was JJ pals with BB at the resurrected mob? Fast winger... not sure how good he is but certainly has speed

... tension hope it's a draw tonight

Alnwick no.1 JJ no.2 Etc. What will Hibs do then?

Snodgrass to us would have sounded crazy not so long ago... If it happens, hope his fitness and form are fab.... 4th here we come.... oh come on, we can all dream

Unlucky for them. Great for us

Where you hearing this.... it's like getting given free money if it's true.... (Aberdeen manager/coaching position? Or contract termination )

Just caught up on Sportsceen. Marvin Barclay best laugh for a while... "Alan Stubbs should also in the ring for the Dons job" He'd get my vote for them...🤣

He is but.....

Either Dundee team, Hibs or Motherwell, home or away All winnable. Let's get to another semi and then one better...

These kind of rumours have been going about for years while we have been continuing to live within our means. We recently got money for McGrath, Macpherson and cut our wage bill offloading McAllister, Dennis, and the two above. Some younger guys went out on loan too. Given the possibility of finishing higher than 7th, I'm sure we'll be in the black... Whose spreading the rumours?

See Craig Samson has just started to work for the Dons. Safe money on a reunion with JR. No pay off needed and a bit more experience at bigger clubs. No brainer. JG a fall back candidate

That would be my worry if JG goes north, JJ would likely follow. He's one of the type of players they need. Wrong job at the wrong time I think but if he went now he gets time to assess who to offload and plan for summer recruitment. They need a clear out

We're already safe barring absolute colapse by us and loads of points for those below us. So we can plan for next season already. Only issue is what place we finish. No reason we don't extend JJ option, if its there etc. We know already much of what we will need i.e. Erwin, out etc... recruitment planning will continue to be carried out..and that's not only down to JG

Aberdeen will be looking at a number of options. What about Graham Alexander or Neilson. It's the wrong gig right now. End of the season a different kettle of fish though

If we lose to Livi and Dee the knickerwtters will be calling for his head anyway. Ok hopefully that is very unlikely, but going up to Aberdeen right now is not a great option. Get Shaunessey an extended deal cause that's one of their glaring needs

Let's agree to differ. On their budget they should be averaging 4th not mid table. They had fallen to 7th. It was also pretty interesting he got sacked the week running up to that final don't you think

Will he be for much longer? Surely by your logic the fact he won the 2 big cups means he should not be sacked too hastily - hes at best a couple of defeats away despite results away and above expectations at the Fakes - last season... You think JR should have got more time, but Boards make the decisions and often more informed ones than we can deduce as we don't often if ever get all the facts.

By the way, they are below us despite having something like 3 times the budget... if that continues Maloney will be away too

We're only sharing very different opinions. What about Davidson - do you think he'll keep his job after 2 cup wins but likely stuck in relegation places?

I think they will consider Brown... its the cheap option and he looks as though hes about passed it on the playing side though he might try to do both. A few months to plan and save for the next manager if it doesn't work out.
