Mark McGhee Interview

[TAYZURRI]

Don't shoot the messenger

[Guest]

Not sure if it's the ears but I've always thought he looked a bit like this guy. Stick a moustache on him and it's a deadringer.....

[Valentke]

I’ll stick my head above the parapet…thought it was a decent interview. Straight talking. I’m intrigued by the guy Rusk.,

Missed not having subtitles, so couldnae pick up on all of it...

But seemed upfront in his answers, (withoot aw the fancy stuff ) & looked straight into camera.

Time will tell once the real stuff starts.

I’m with you @Valentke thought he came across well . Handled tricky questions about timing well and was quite honest about not running about at training . Also not trying to make out that everything mcpake has done is wrong

[MacSmith]

Some tough and fair questions in there which is unusual for an introduction press conference. 

You can see he's experienced in handling reporters and he did very well. That kind of confidence is important in order to impose confidence on the players. 

I've always admired his self-belief and his desire to win games. He knows it's all about results.

McGhee saying he'd have signed on for longer than to the end of the season if we weren't in the predicament we are.

Just watched it there 

Kinda refreshing that he's admitted he can't so it all and gonna rely on the man rusk 

I'm must admit I'm feeling a little better about this appointment 

Get Sunday out the way and the real stuff starts next Wednesday against the saints 

Obv has so much more experience than mcpake so fingers crossed this works out 

Defo feels within himself he and rusk can do a job for us so gotta take that as a positive

The only thing that's bugging me is the old pals act him and strachan cos if strachan wasn't at dens neither would McGhee 

But we are where we are and as a Dee I've to support the team and go to the games 

Welcome mark and simon pls fix this crap were in and we will all be happy dees

Although no subtitles I found that easier to follow...Quite impressed, now let's see how it works out.

What's with all the mcpake questions,is he the only manager in history to be sacked?

No, but Nelms repeatedly mentioned how it was 'agony' for him to let go of someone that 'was like a son' and that McPake had done a brilliant job, so it's natural for those questions to follow from that.

It's just strange,he is gone and McGhee is in. The bbc guy looking for an agenda as well,hinting that him and Strachan have been cooking this for months.
