Off the top of my head;

Is it time to give 2 up front a real chance? 

(Morelos, Cummings and Windass rotating as out and out strikers) 

Who is a creative player we should

aim to sign in the summer to help us break down tight defences at home? (No 10 role) Do we need one with Dorrans returning?

Where does McCrorie fit in to the starting 11 when he’s back, defence or midfield?

Can we sign better than Bates in the summer or is giving him a contract a no brainer?

I'd definitely be keen to get Greg on at some point and have a constructive discussion from both sides.

Yes that would be excellent. You could also do it as an apart interview although that would throw up more editing problems for Big Jaws.

And one from the left field,

Which Aberdeen players would make it into our team?

 

As I've shown in another post, Aberdeen are the best in the league at beating the 4th-12th teams. They would be top of the league if games vs the old firm were discounted. And they'd be about 12 points clear of Rangers. So if we have better players, why do their players consistently get better results against the rest of the league? Would Graeme Shinnie be a good signing? Big old fashioned Scott McKenna?

 

This question leads in to whether McInnes should be out of the question as an option for the summer when he clearly has a winning formula in our league. Should the board swallow their pride and try again with him, fixing whatever was the cause of his refusal? For all we know it was our board's fault and not McInnes's.

Because teams try harder against us - fact.

No that doesn't account for the difference. If they win their game in hand at home vs St Johnstone they will have achieved 11 points more than us against the 4th-12th teams and 6 points more than Celtic. Excuses can't cover that fact up, McInnes is clearly doing something right consistently. 

 

He's even maintained it after having his squad dismantled at the end of last season losing 5 starting players in Jack, McGinn, Hayes, Maddison and Ash Taylor.

 

[Gonzo79 13,541]

Waltersgotstyle makes a fair point.  Teams treat matches against us like cup finals whereas Aberdeen are just another diddy club.  

[Unicorn 206]

Luckily Aberdeen treat games against us as cup finals too.

Always interested to hear opinions on the media. How to we get a foothold back in the Scottish media? Why are we (club) so bad at setting narratives etc. 

 

Likewise as others have said Club1872. With hindsight, was probably mistake with merger. How best to move forward and repair any damage?

 

Would be good to hear about options on area around Ibrox, what is possible and what would any barriers be?

We are not at the races when it comes to PR/media, the scum have everything wrapped up in that regard, I would like to question why? why is our club so poor and miles behind the scum with the media? we get trampled on daily as a club from the Scottish gutter press and there is no resistance to it!.
