Absolutely. You couldn’t make it up. S0 how many have almost occupied the hot seat so far? First it was Wilder, then it was Wilder or Lampard, then Uncle Roy got a mention, then Appleton was almost signed, then we had Wagner with his feet under the table before he saw the light. And now, Derek McInnes. Apart from Appleton, all the possibles or probable have one thing in common; they are unemployed and therefore no compensation is due. This might be just the media talking it all up but there’s no smoke without a few sparks.
In fairness < McInnes hasn’t done a bad job at Aberdeen and generally managed to keep them the best of the rest, which is all you can really hope for in Scotland. four seconds, a third and three fourths is not bad – reasonable Championship standard.
