  1. Potential problem.... under contract until 1st July 2009
  2. Aye but I'll wager good mnoey he'll nae be drawing the same wage for being shite there
  3. Whats the problem with the highlights ? Still not up on BBC...... Even the Tattie Munchers game from yesterday is there
  4. BBC Scotland has learned that the former Aberdeen and Celtic defender Jackie McNamara will sign for Falkirk later this week. McNamara was released from his contract at Pittodrie at the end of last month after less than a season. The 34-year-old, capped 34 times for Scotland, has had his career hampered by injuries. He now looks set to join up with his former Celtic teammate John Hughes at the Falkirk Stadium. After leaving the north east last month, McNamara hinted that he would like to continue playing and take his first steps into management. "I'd like to keep playing for another year and I'm also interested in doing some coaching," he told The Scotsman. "My main aim now is to be able to enjoy my football, whether it is playing, coaching or both."
  5. Tend to agree with Kowlaski on this one. Now that we have nothing to play for other then pride Think our turn out will be down for this one. Playing it on a Thursday night certainly ain't going to help matters. I'm not going to come up for it, nor are my two boys so right away thats three off the crowd. Think we'll see a cordon of police positioned in front of the filth.
  6. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_prem/7390620.stm No blame on the players tonight
  7. Forgot to say the morns night, i'll be raising a glass to the greatest Aberdeen team it has been my privledge to witness, and certainly wiping a tear or six from my eyes
  8. Dinnae worry about their inaccuracies, half of Dundee will be wipping their erse with it within the next week or so
  9. Understand where slim is coming from though, given previous from Mr Calderwood, no doubt ahead of the game he'll be giving it Barry this and Barry that, what a great finisher " Big Kris" is, what an example to every boy starting out in football "Grandpa Weir" is etc etc
  10. Anyone in the employment of AFC should NEVER be allowed to view any game against the ofrces of darkness as a nothing game Eevery opportunity to fuck them should be grasped with both hands
  11. Thinking about this and by Calderwoods way of thinking he'd obviously be good to have around the place and be a laugh in the dressing room. That'll be abody else laughing at him for shagging Jade Goody (allegedly ) and then stalking her (again allegedly )
  12. No words could possibly sum up what I think of this
  13. Had a drink or six tonight Sharpie
  14. Like your optimism
  15. Think the huns will be seriously fired up tonight, on account of their mistaken correct understanding that nae cunt likes them
  16. Not necessarily they could draw, but defeat would increase chances
  17. Good research mate. See your return is adding vlaue to the site already
  18. Career details. Never made a first team start for Newcastle, but has been capped at full international level http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Troisi
  19. Aye that'll be it
  20. Garry Hay is a decent left back/midfielder. He is currently club captian at Killie and see that he is close to being 31 and been at Rugby Park all his professional career. Not sure if he is out of contract in the summer or not though
  21. Yesterday news I know, but nae seen any comment on here about this article. Anyone any idea who this mystery youth player is ? Seem to remember a story about a young lad in Glasgow who was the son of an asylum seeker that we were supposedly looking at Anyone else mind anything about this ? interesting claim that our youth academy is right up there with Brothers Grim and Edinburgh twosome. Surely this being the case we will see the fruits shortly Aberdeen’s Gothenburg Greats have returned to haunt the Old Firm once again as the Dons prepare to trump the Glasgow clubs in the competition for one of Scotland’s brightest young talents. Peter Weir, an assistant director of the Pittodrie youth academy with fellow 1983 hero Neil Simpson, is on the verge of a signing coup which he believes is a sign of things to come. Weir, who will be back in the north-east this weekend for the testimonial events to mark the 25th anniversary of Aberdeen’s triumph against Real Madrid in the European Cup Winners’ Cup, said: ]“Our academy structure is right up there alongside Rangers, Celtic, Hibs and Hearts. “Without naming names, we are very close to signing a teenager who is being courted by both Rangers and Celtic. “The Old Firm want to wine and dine his family, but we have already shaken hands and I’m confident he will stick to the agreement. “Rangers and Celtic throw money at young players in a way we cannot afford to do, but that is not always the best way forward. Aberdeen pull out all of the stops to persuade young players Pittodrie is the best place for them to develop their career. Our record of signing good young players in recent years, in the face of strong competition, vindicates our approach.†Weir insists it will take time for the green shoots in the Dons youth academy to blossom, but is confident about the future. He said: “We will have five or six young players moving up to go full-time for next season and there are already promising players in the under-17 and under-19 teams. It is still too early to expect them to be knocking on the first team door, but over the next couple of years it should begin to happen if they apply themselves properly and fulfil their potential.†A proportion of the proceeds from this year’s programme of Gothenburg testimonial events will be donated by the 1983 players to Aberdeen’s youth set-up.
  22. As long as he isn't a catcher
  23. Actually might be wrong, think they both have 11 caps
