I read the article "Nic Bemuzed by Dons Offer" or whatever it was on the Beeb. He's keen to see if Aberdeen can come back to him with something. It's clear he wants to stay. And with Che Willie about to head back to his agent with an improved offer, it's clear the Dons want him to stay. I think he'll end up staying with us for another three years.

Yeah but who wins caps playing for Aberdeen? Barry Ferguson would get dropped from the international scene if he signed for us ... and the SFA think the sun shines outa his erse!

You would?

True. He builds boring sides. People want entertainment. Yes Ebbe's sides were just too erratic ... brilliant one week, bloody aweful the next. But JC's sides are boring. The crowds want a win, yes. But they want to be entertained too! Playing Clark every week is NOT entertaining. Bringing De Visscher off the bench on the 87th minute every week is NOT entertaining. Scraping through 1-0 against Smurren and having the manager saying "I'm happy with the result" is NOT entertaining. Sam Allardyce, however, is entertaining. I have fond memories of watching him on the tele when watching some older Cardiff matches. He was entertaining! I reckon the crowds would come if Sam was JC's replacement ... which, let's face it, we'll need a replacement during the summer. JC is on his way out, of that there is no doubt.

It seems a shame that taking the club to higher and higher levels has resulted in our squad being asked to take pay CUTS. And this after Willie announcing there'll be 1.4mill in the kitty. Something nae right here, me thinks. On one hand, it's good that the Dons are sticking to some sort of wage structure (a factor that was clearly missing when we started getting ourselves into trouble when signing the likes of Kiriakov, Winters and Hignett). But on the other hand, Hart and Nicholson are two of our more consistent performers over the past couple of seasons. Although we shouldn't be pushing the boat out, we should certainly be doing what we can to keep them here ... especially when the likes of Barry Nic has expressed his desire to stay here!!!!!

I will have to hunt that one down and see if I can steal the .swf files and upload it to the DTArcade. If you see it, Drew, let me know.

Gauntlet? You mean the old D&D game? That was an AWESOME game. Probably one of the best games from the ZX Spectrum days of the mid-80s

So long as I can download the game's shockwave "flash" files, I can pinch them

Stop that shite right now, min! They were amongst the worst to us when Toastergate happened. It feels great to give it all back at them! Third-highest wages in the SPL, and second from bottom! At least we were skint when we were shite. But they've got millions and are still shite!!!! Laugh? Fuckin right!!! Sympathise??? Dinnae gie me any of that shite. They never "sympathised" with us when we were shite.

Well, I had a laugh reading the online translation... Dave bus will try the coming week enforce a contract at Aberdeen. The platform customer of the county will be as from Tuesday four days on test at the Scottish club. Bus cannot count in Doetinchem on a basisplaats. Frequently he must even do it with a place on the platform. Aberdeen are a Scottish subtopper and play in February UEFA footballfootball football against Bayern Munich. The chance exists therefore that bus is thereby present. It the world on its head would be. But in playing soccer you must exclude nothing, I have learned, thus he reacts. The county did not do difficult concerning the training period of bus, which has a aflopend contract. In week end I must be of Han rescue worker (director football matter of the county, red.), because we play next week Sunday against Vitesse. The county have very correctly established and am myself there I glad for, thus bus compared with the Gelderlander. Bus happened in 2004, of the amateurs of HSC'21. The first two years stood he multiple in the basis, but there arrived vervolgens an end.

Nah. We're normally out of the cup at this time of the year.

Non-footballing reasons being ... he's finally got a YTS Joinery Apprenticeship?

Yeah you missed the big headline front page in The Herald ... "Clark Not Wanted ... Says Dons Fans"

Tetris now available

'kin right. Get rid of Clark NOW! Waste of space and wages

Cannae beat Partridge's other attempt at football commentary. "Shit! I .. I ... I mean GOAL!!!"

I would love it if they went down. I fuckin hate the yams. Got a bit of a soft-spot for the Hibees, but I cannae fuckin stand the yams. They're just the new huns. Infact they're WORSE than the huns in so many different ways. If I didn't hate the original song, I'd love to sing "Hail Hail Stephen Frail"

Will do! I actually spotted a Tetris game, and will chuck it on as soon as I get onto my home computer (could be a couple of days, cos I'm off to see I Am Legend tonight)

I was looking at them ... and they asked for a square go!

yeah, not sure why this is happening. I don't have direct access to the DB to check what's going on with the sql sessions. Could you hae a word wi' yer mate to see what the chances would be of me getting direct access?

Paddy and Mick. To which Jimmy Calderwood replied "is this some sort of joke?"

Surely Pittodrie can decide where the microphones are placed in the stadium. I would've thought, in the interest of showing up how good an atmosphere Pittodrie CAN be, that the mics should be positioned on the Upper RDS and on the South Stand from Sections S to Y. Why position these mics above what is (Old Firm aside) always a sparsely-populated away crowd.

You kids these days have it easy with yer fancy computer games. Donkey Kong was bloody tricky in my days. But then it was relatively easy when compared to the likes of Manic Minor, Jet Set Willy, Lunar Jetman and Attic Attack. Back in the day!

To be fair Bobby, I cannot remember a single player in recent times who has said "I want to leave" before they've actually left. It's just not the done thing. In recent times, Anderson, Winters, Zero, Whyte, Dadi, Bisconti and Stavrum left it until they'd actually signed with someone else before telling us.

There's one in Dnipro city centre too. It's awesome. It's a HUGE bounce. When the reds start jumping on "TEN", it looks as though some of the Dnipro fans jump in thinking it's the start of a riot. Brilliant stuff!
