Panda replied to RicoS321's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubStop talking about a strategy and actually fucking implement one? Steve Clarke would smack of an expensive, temporary appointment. A guy who would want a lot of money to get short term results, without developing youth or implementing the attacking philosophy the club keep saying they want. I would accept Clarke IF it was part of some sort of coaching progression, ie a young assistant coming in to work with him, with the long-term plan he takes over. But my fear is Steve Clarke as manager would mean Steven Naismith and John Carver as his coaching team. And they won't be cheap. And we'll be in the same position in 18 months when they get bored. But that said, would probably take that over Raphael Wicky. -
Gaming
I still maintain to this day that Super Mario Kart is the greatest game of all time and a few years ago I actually beat a former world champion in Battle Mode online in a best of 25 match, it ended 13-12 so incredibly close but a victory nonetheless. Earliest gaming memory for me was playing Jumping Jack on the Speccy and I still love going back to it from time to time though once you get to the later levels then it's purely pot luck how much further you get. I now have a gaming collection that is taking over the house, near enough every console you can think of from the Channel F up to Playstation 5 and close to 4000 physical games in total.

swaddon replied to RicoS321's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubIf he does appoint Clarke and he signs Grant Hanley in January, then that's me done with fitba.

mondo_notion replied to RicoS321's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubSeems like the kind of safe appointment I reckon Cormack would go for right now. Big name that would settle a lot of fans, knows the Scottish game (some would argue) and if it doesn't work out Cormack can shrug his shoulders and say 'well, what more can I do?'. -

Alford.Red replied to RicoS321's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubWhen he was the Huns manager, I actually had to turn down my radio everytime he was being interviewed, as his voice (and him) was grating and annoying!! -

The Davie Cormack Grand Plan: Do You Trust the Plan?
Ajja replied to PatrickM's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubCheers. I spend way too much of my working day analysing the financials of other businesses. Although analysing the Dons latest shit shows is slightly less enjoyable than ramming shards of bamboo under your finger nails, I don’t want to merge it with my work too much. -

Ajja replied to RicoS321's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubDefinitely quite interesting if not a little cock swinging. -

The Davie Cormack Grand Plan: Do You Trust the Plan?
Ajja replied to PatrickM's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubThanks OD, much appreciated. That’s actually better than I expected it to be. Roughly 100% increase in revenue with an equivalent 60% bump in salaries. I guess the unknowns to square the circle are spend on fees which I assume have risen in that period, possibly in a bit of a bell curve with recent figures dropping (see current squad 😞) and also other non-staff expenditure increase To my earlier point, I’m guessing if you remove player sales that looks like a messy picture of sizeable losses. I’m not even going to touch the European income but I’d suggest these should both be seen as added benefits and not expected to keep the lights on. -

OxfordDon replied to PatrickM's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubThe accounts don't provide any separation of player wages, but unless we've hired a fleet of tea-ladies, I'd suggest the leap up of £2.5million between the last 2 years is probably a reasonable indicator that we have significantly increased the player bill. -
The Davie Cormack Grand Plan: Do You Trust the Plan?
PatrickM replied to PatrickM's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubOK but we can reasonably assumed that playing staff are the vast majority of it. We've all played FM here I'm sure.

The Davie Cormack Grand Plan: Do You Trust the Plan?
PatrickM replied to PatrickM's topic in Aberdeen Football ClubThat means about £300-400k average player salaries, right? And Brad Lyons, for example, is classed as an 'important player' so is he on £10K + per week? Am I taking crazy pills or what lads?
