What the hell is going on at AFC's marketing department? It must be staffed by complete clowns.

Are you moving to the states or something?

I heard she put her prices down to survive the credit crunch, you might find yourself out of pocket...

Yip, the pics I've seen so far make him seem a tad barrel shaped.

Great, antagonise a player who has potential to be extremely good for this club. Nice one Darren Bailey.

Does anyone have me in their team?

How do you know when a drummers at the door? They never know when to come in.

Is it the story with the Donkey, the rent boy, and two sombreros filled with ecstacy? It's not true.

And another one down... http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/bizarre/3002717/Former-Stereophonics-drummer-Stuart-Cable-has-been-found-dead-at-his-home-in-Wales.html

If I was going to give special mention to goals, it would be these:

Thank Christ, a truly awful footballer.

Oddly enough I'm no historian, but if we have a check I'm sure we'll see that he's scored more than 2 goals. He may not be a great player but he's been with our club through some hard hard times, he's taken an incredible amount of abuse, some deserved and some undeserved but he's Aberdeen through and through which is something we'll be lucky to see again for some time. Let's give the guy the same that any other player gets for having ten years service at this club.

Harsh. If he gets a testimonial and I can make it I'll be there.

12 dead and 25 injured. See what happens when you let a bird drive?

Aberdeen skipper Mark Kerr says he would consider staying at Pittodrie if the club were to make him an improved contract offer. (Herald) Bye Mark. Fuck off, yesterday.

My issue is that he's had a whole season to identify whats required and who he wants realistically to fill those requirements. We've got one signing, good start, but we need more and we need them in place for the start of pre-season training, not at the end of the transfer window. McGhee's proven himself to be a flapper so far when it comes to his transfer dealings, that has to stop now. It's time for him to get his head down and start doing the job that he's neglected to do for a whole season so far.

I don't subscribe to that at all. If the Old Firm are in bad shape it generally means everyone else is in a worse state. Top six and challenging for Europe is fine at the moment, until we are in a better situation financially.

We can judge this in relation to how he's performed in previous transfer windows, and that performance has been shocking. I've put my faith in the guy as much as I can, I've renewed my season ticket and I'm waiting with baited breath to see what happens, but my expectation levels of a guy like McGhee are currently so low that I expect it to be another shambles, he's already making excuses for himself.

Absolutely not, but if he repeats the last two transfer windows where he's been utterly pathetic in the transfer market, where he's identified players and chased them until its dawned on him he can't, and never could afford them and then is left with absolutely no time to sign anyone whatsoever then I'll be utterly furious. He's had a whole season to have reasonable targets in place. He's already repeated part of last season by trying to sign Kevin Kyle (remember Stephen Hughes?). The guy should be like a coiled spring, he should have his targets in place and he should be ready to move on them at the earliest possible moment. I don't want to see a team that's still getting to know each other for the first half of the season, if he continues to flap then it's going to have to be someone elses turn come January.

Diddle dum dum dum, another one bites the dust... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment_and_arts/10231449.stm

Caspers actually standing right in front of Leitch. Can you see him?

No problem Mark, theres no rush to get new players in at all, just you take your time, infact forget about this transfer window, just bide your time till January. Thats when the bargains appear. Plan for season 11/12, that's when we'll be back on our feet. 7th place is there for the taking, lets make a real effort this year! COYR!

Due diligence seems to be his new catchphrase...
