As for others asking what players are out of contract and/or could be targets for Aberdeen. I’d guess Alnwick definitely, possibly Tanser (who he seems to like) and maybe Brophy at a push? Apart from Alnwick, I couldn’t really say we have anyone that would be ‘Aberdeen class’, in terms of their ambitions at least, rather than their current position. Ps. Could see him making a play for JJ certainly and maybe Gogic / Ronan. None of whom we could expect to keep.

I've no idea on that one... but doubt it'll be over the next 5 days... McManus in charge for a week or 3....while the formalities take place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the don't get beat (mosts draws) king... We've drawn about 5 more games on average than other teams. If we'd lost 3 and won 2 of those we'd already be 4th. The Dons expect to win even more than we would Edited February 18, 2022 by Sweeper07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been out of work for a year now, and we are in a much better place, so i think he would be more open to an approach. Should at least ask!

Sweeper07 Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 My 1st choice would be Malky MacKay. He inherited a poor squad at RC and has made them a good bit better already. They are attack minded and have had some impressive results, despite having a weaker defence than us.... imagine what he could do with our squad..... when's his contract up (summer?) Anyone know?

I would be happy with him. Ross County seem to start each season with almost a complete new squad. The score goals….leak them too but enjoyable to watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northstbuddie Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 (edited) I recall that when Jim became manager he majored on the need for stability at the club instead of constantly chopping and changing the manager. Didn't realise that he was only talking about 2 to 3 years of stability before we start all over again. Having said that, he is still the longest serving manager in the SPL - at least for all of a couple of days.

Already been posted his record at Hibs, overall, was pretty decent. They shat their pants after a poor run, and the rest is history. His record with us was, IMO, was the best managerial performance in many a year. Have him back in a heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
