In the middle of the Live Show, Aberdeen sack Stephen Robinson, a move expected by everyone on the panel as his record becomes too much to bear for Dons fans. Who is next to get the job at Pittodrie? Is Steve Clarke too big for Aberdeen, or will they opt for a foreign coach? The panel discussed bad refereeing decisions, a moment of genius at Tannadice, and no excuses for an embarrassing Hearts performance.
Aberdeen sacked Stephen Robinson in the middle of the live show. Peter Martin, Alan Rough, Alex Rae and Tam McManus react after the 4-0 home defeat to Hibs, and ask who's next at Pittodrie.
Who will be Aberdeen's next manager?
Steve Clarke, Steven Pressley, John McGlynn, Neil Lennon and St Johnstone's Simo Valakari all come up. "I think Steve Clarke's too big for Aberdeen." Or, as one of the panel says: "I think they want a foreign manager."
Was Stephen Robinson the problem?
Peter backed him to the end: "Good manager, wrong club." The rest of the panel look upstairs, at the board and recruitment: "It's got no strategy. It's got no leadership."
Was Rangers' penalty at St Mirren soft?
Tam McManus: "I thought it was a soft penalty."
Also: Hearts 2-5 Falkirk and Wouter Vrancken's verdict, John McGlynn ("Why is he not considered for a big job?"), Celtic v Kilmarnock and Liam Scales' winner, the minute's silence for the poppy, a back-heel goal at Tannadice the panel called "genius", and St Johnstone v Dundee, where Steven Pressley said "We didn't deserve it."
Who should be Aberdeen's next manager? Tell us below.
