    Shame it didnt work for him and us. Personally was quite interested to see if the lad still had it when he signed. Obviously he didnt!

    Im sort of glad it didn't work out. To old and he was just a terrible footballer. Makes you wonder why McInnes got him in. Well no, No it doesn't McInnes was clueless <doh>

    Shiny, he may not have "it" anymore but you don't win the European Cup and the FA cup if you are a terrible footballer.

    Lets show a bit of class and wish him well...

    Well I seen nothing to see otherwise prem. I don't wish him well I know it will sound bitter and a bit immature but he has done nothing for this club so why should I wish him well? If he contributed a bit more and didn't go out on the piss till he couldn't stand every week then yeah I would show some class but no he showed no class towards us so he won't get any back from me.

    Erm, He didn't act like a dick and embarrass us once here, just because he played once doesn't mean he showed no class

    I didn't say he embarrassed the club <doh> We pay this player money to contribute to the team which he didn't do, He spent the money on his social life he got his money by doing absolutely nothing <doh>

    Great news to get rid of Cisse and replace him with Morris was a joke. Funny how all of McInnes signings are slowly all going, hopefully M.Wilson will now also go now Brendan Moloney has come in.

    dont get me wrong he brought in some decent players like Cunningham but most were not up to scratch in the English leagues.

    Heaton, Cunningham, Baldock and Davies we're McInnes best signings and perhaps (adomah aside) our best players.

    Difficult to separate Morris and Hunt as our worst signings EVER. I've seen enough transfer-in failures over the years but these two top the lot.

    I think we'll be able to add Liam Kelly soon to your list, Shiny.

    Oh and I still think Fosters been OK.

    To me Foster issue is he cant defend. best games has been playing wide in midfield, as he is pacey and a good crosser but in defence his positioning isnt great and too many times he looses his man. His last game against Leeds, he had some of our best chances but was at fault for their goal. so wouldnt have an issue of him back in the team if he played right midfield.

    Still wish McInnes hadnt released Ribeiro who for me was the best right back in the league if he could stay fit as I think he is quite similar to a young Gareth Bale. Seems to be having a good season at Scunthorpe, and is staying fit. Can't imagine he will be there much longer.

    Agree with most of what you say Andy. Foster wide right or left midfield is a useful member of the squad, although with Albert and Anderson, he would not be first choice there either at present.
    But I'm still adamant that Heaton should have come for the cross at Leeds as McCormick headed it from FOUR yards out. Unless a header goes straight at a keeper from that distance, he does not stand a hope in hell of saving it. So IMO more Heaton's mistake than Foster's.

    Add to that Kelly and Anderson and Taylor who will also be quality, it makes this comment ( McInnes was clueless) nonsense.

    He lost his way, no doubt about that, but he also kept us up last season massively against the odds..

    Taylor was Millens signing, but heard a rumour that he could have Taylor or Le Fondre at the time but choose Taylor.

    But I do agree McInnes has left us some good players, yes he lost his way but was that because the players would not preform. But as you pointed out last season we was pretty ****ed and he saved us.

    So he signed, Heaton, Cunningham, Baldock, Davies, Kelly, Anderson plus 6 or 7 plus good class youngsters, he might have made some mistakes but he did a lot of constructive things in his year...
