Aye was a bit of a challenge to see the first one but the second from Glass was right in front of us and twas a braw bounce

All the very best to him at Rotherham..

He's got a job as assistant manager at Rotherham United.

May interest those of us of a certain vintage, but the TV series This Life, is 30 years old this month. Was must watch TV back in the day and even though Andrew Lincoln is a big TV star now, he will always be 'Egg'. The full series is up on the iPlayer and I think it needs another viewing.

Just finished Better Call Saul. Excellent television and definitely better than Breaking Bad, although BB is brilliant too.

Scattershot - Bernie Taupin Only thing I knew of this man, was he wrote songs with Elton John. I read a lot of biographies of footballers and musicians, as along with books, that is my three main hobbies, Fitba, Music and Books. When it comes to biographies, the best ones are usually from folk you know least about and this Bernie Taupin book is one of them. The guy can write and tell a story and not much people he hasn't met throughout his life.

Fae the BBC gossip page: "Aberdeen manager Stephen Robinson has called up youth players Lewis Carrol and Jamie Mercer to train with the first team."

Only know someone here in NZ which probably ist very useful I’m afraid thinking about it though, I may know someone. Where would the logo be used ?

Just AI it. Or draw if yersel with crayons for the authentic look.

True Dandies were in the away end. I just managed to catch it going in, in a gap between folks heids, as the entire stand fell forwards. It was a wild one. Brockville was a class ground.

I was in the ‘home’ end at a Brockville for Scott Thompsons header. Easily in my top 10 favourite dons goals

Without a doubt back then it was the fans and the energy generated by them that pulled us through of that I have no doubt. Fast forward to today and I still believe even this time round the fans have not turned their back and will not turn their back on the team. We have the best traveling support in Scotland week after week game after game selling out the away allocation of tickets, than in itself should and would be more than enough to spur on their team but not our shower of We, the fans can be well proud of the continued effort to back this lot and try and get them singing a tune, but the lack of fighting spirit form 99.9% of these charlatans is a pure disgrace. I honestly believe the fkn Salvation Army would have their work cut out trying to save this lot

He was signed in the 95-96 season, which is what the thread is about. Thats why I also mentioned Paul Bernard.

Windass wasnt signed till the following season A young Ian Crocker did the commentry for the playoffs with the cringeworthy 'Shear-errr magic' after the 2nd goal in the first leg. Note the playoff set up back then slightly favoured the 1st division team with them getting the second leg at home. Heaven forbid that happen now. It seemed to be a season where finally come March the likes of shearer etc said 'right FFS we are better than this' and got their act together. Being pre bosman there was perhaps the fear of where they could end up of relegated and perhaps more 'pride' Lasting memories are being in a mates parents car outside rollerbowl inverness and the radio being switched on just in time to hear Dodds winner at Tynecastle and his Dad being shocked to hear it was a potentially relegation saving goal, and hearing Shearers 2nd against utd go in while my Dad and I were driving through Beauly. Also still occasionally watch this

I mind when Bernard and Jess ran Gazza ragged in the League Cup semi final.

May be a myth, but it's often said Oldham didn't even expect to get £1m for him, but Aberdeen were intent on making a statement of intent by being the first non-Old Firm side to do so. I remember reading a comment from Willie Miller saying he was annoyed he didn't get to be the first to make a £1m signing, so it was clearly being talked about for some time. Then along came Bernard. Thankfully those running the club these days are more sensible...

I feel like Paul Bernard has long had an unfair time at the hands of Dons fans. He did spend the vast majority of his time on the treatment table, but he was a classy player and when him and Jess played together they were some unit.

Yep pretty sure that was the case

Did big Bri not leave under a cloud. Did they not give him a contract because of his MS diagnosis. Could be havering shyte with that.

We should send a copy of the book Never Again to the current squad. Give them some inspiration

Aitken not responsible for Booth leaving as he signed for Dortmund under freedom of contract. Not sure if he was but he might have been the first player we lost under the Bosman ruling

No necessity for arse cheeks to develop.their own youngsters as long as those coming through at other Scottish club sook their boaby as soon as one half of them shows the slightest interest in signing them

The one and only time I have gone on to the pitch at full time was at EEP. Let's remember in the previous fifteen years or so I had enjoyed watching my team win league titles and cups left right and centre. This was alien territory to me to witness potential relegation and was all about sheer unadulterated relief. The one overwhelming factor for me as I remember it was that the fans never turned their back on the team and I genuinely believe the players fed off that energy. It wasn't long until.we were winners again, both in terms of the League Cup win as a team and individually with a certain Stephen Glass winning his Coca Cola branded mountain bike for his MOTM performance Unfortunately I'm not sure our team or support of 2025/26 possess what is required to pull us through this time around. On the subject of Paul Bernard, he was a lot better player than his stats might suggest and after signing him for £1m i genuinely believe we could have sold him for many times that figure if we could only have kept him fit. Even a 50% fit Bernard would walk straight into our current line up.

Looking for any assistance from anyone, or recommendations of people they know, with regards to logo designs for a project I'm hoping to get started. Cheers in advance

Bernard wasn’t worth £1M and seemed to be injury prone but he was a fucking good player.
