A Year ago Derek McInnes turned us down

[Torrybear]

Where would we be now?

 

[trevor_steven]

I'm going to put my neck on the line and say we wouldn't be playing this Thursday night

 

[Gallowhillprod]

Shagging sheep.

 

[SDF]

2nd, out of Europe and no trophies won.

[dh1963]

2nd, out of Europe and no trophies won.

That could be us next Thursday night!

 

[Bermondsey Wall West]

He’s not a bad manager, but with the Muttonians he has found his level.

 

[BroomloanWATP]

We're would we be now?

Arguing whether or not Stevie May deserves a chance up-front.

 

[SDF]

That could be us next Thursday night!

It wasn't us in July though.

 

[Sam English]

We wouldn't be in the Europa League, that's for sure.

 

[Yer da]

What could've been....

 

[Arminius]

Arguing whether or not Stevie May deserves a chance up-front.

You're taking that too far

 

[Bluerhap]

He knew it was a step too difficult for him. A man’s got to know his limitations.

 

[Jimmy the Gent]

We wouldn’t be in europe, I’m convinced we would be challenging for the title though.

He knows what he is doing in this league, with a better quality of player and more money to spend, we would challenge the mhanks.

 

[Arminius]

We could have had another manager who also had a modelling career, same as The Magnificent Bastard II.











modelling as a homeless jakey for a charity campaign, that is

 

[TCWNS1872]

To respond to the thread title, thank the maker.

 

[SOB-WATP]

Out of Europe, probably around the same points tally domestically.

He's done a good job at Aberdeen, they seem to always go on around this time of year. Also worth noting their only 6 points behind with a game in hand.

 

[E10H]

I would've taken an interest in rugby and understood the game by now.

 

[Rangersnumberfour]

I still can't believe he actually knocked it back. He must actually be mental

 

[Sam English]

Would he still be in the job, one year on.

 

[EKBB]

We would never have boarded the Stevie G express.

 

[RutherglenGer72]

You're taking that too far

Naw he's no

 

[Amstel]

I remember the riddy that night very well. Reading a doc stone post and the. On SSN thinking where the %^*& do we go from here

 

[A Magician Named Gob]

I'd prefer the thread title to say bottled it and settled for mediocrity.

 

[Blazing Saddles]

Bone chilling how close we were to getting this loser.

 

[Coatbridge Chancellor]

Finished 2nd last season. Scottish Cup semi. Out of Europe in 2nd round. League Cup final. 3rd in league currently. Daily threads on the feni@n in the dugout. Barry Ferguson on the coaching staff. Andy Considine at left back. Ryan Jack captain.

 

[tottie beck]

We’d no doubt be struggling in sixth place taking regular doings off the mentally challengeds

We dodged a bullet with McInnes

 

[top_cat]

The abuse that he gets on here is utterly childish at times.

We get it, he shat it, apparently.

And no, I'm not Derek

 

[The Canny Man]

Not only McInnes but his assistant would’ve been a poor appointment.

 

[amabluestar]

Bone chilling how close we were to getting this loser.

Keeps getting to finals, ok and losing.
Second in table a few times..
Bullet dodged is not a bad manager.
And he was one of our nine in a row hero's, but forget that.

 

[Keilso]

Stuck in a world of mediocrity.

Would have been an uninspiring appointment, a manager that doesn't know how to play entertaining football.

 

[Blazing Saddles]

I've genuinely no idea if you're agreeing with me or not...

 

[CapitalBear1973]

It's very simple. Gerrard is a winner (FA Cup, CL League). McInnes (as has been explained elsewhere on here) is a perennial loser.

 

[Colinstein69]

Not only McInnes but his assistant would’ve been a poor appointment.

At the time, while not 100% convinced on McInnes, I could understand the logic in going after him. However, his assistant is another matter. Like others have mentioned, I wanted him nowhere near our club and I wonder if some board members were not too keen on him either? Or perhaps Docherty himself didn’t fancy it? I think there’s more to it the story than ‘he shat it’.

 

[E10H]

Welcome to what would've been the Rangers dugout.

19th Century Terroristed up to fu(k.

Would've relinquished over 40 years of support on their appointments.

They were coming at over a million too.

Couldn't have condoned it, just walked away quietly and never returned.

I actually have to thank you Derek, cheers.

 

[Roger Smith Loyal]

Anthony f*cking Docherty.

Thank the lord he is nowhere near our club.

 

[BroomloanWATP]

Anthony f*cking Docherty.

Thank the lord he is nowhere near our club.

Docherty looks like what you'd get if you asked someone a draw a picture of a mentally challenged.

 

[Roger Smith Loyal]

Docherty looks like what you'd get if you asked someone a draw a picture of a mentally challenged.

The prime example of one

With you ...................................
I think.
But I cant remember.

 

[Scoot]

Signing petitions to get rid of Tony Docherty.

I have it on reasonable authority that McInnes was told by our top brass ‘we want you but not your right-hand man’. Just as well really as it would NEVER have worked out with TD as our No2.

 

[Swinton Ger]

Thank %^*& he did. That’s all.

 

[The Lone Sniper]

Thank you Derek.

 

[Once a BEAR]

I still can't believe he actually knocked it back. He must actually be mental

The deal was set he was coming but Aberdeen had something on him, allegedly he was seeing some bird up there and they put the blockers on it. Not sure if they were going to expose him if he left as obviously his Mrs didn't know.

[RFCStu]

I would rather never see a football match again in my life than have to watch his brand of football week in week out.

 

[Coatbridge Chancellor]

Celtic 1-0 Rangers League Cup Final.
McInnes: We're just happy to be here.

 

[E10H]

? ?

 

[Rt. Hon. Bearman]

Arguing whether or not Stevie May deserves a chance up-front.

What a grim, grim thought.

 

[Ruben Sosa]

We wouldn’t be in europe, I’m convinced we would be challenging for the title though.

He knows what he is doing in this league, with a better quality of player and more money to spend, we would challenge the mhanks.

We are still in Europe AND challenging for the title (at this time), so your point is what?

 

[trevor_steven]

I still can't believe he actually knocked it back. He must actually be mental

He'll no doubt think that beating us in a cup semi final vindicated his decision.
