I understand what your saying but as fans of the clubs we are never going to be impartial. From the outside looking in, he has taken a club languishing in the lower reaches of the SPL and turned them into side capable of reaching the last 32 of the UEFA cup having spent what?? £500k between two transfer fees and all this within four years. Yeah I probably am clutching at straws especially claiming the board are being clever but I just have a wee niggly feeling everything will work out alright. If I'm wrong we're fucked (and maybe thats why I've come up with this theroy) because if there was a game Jimmy should have been at on monday night looking for potential signings it certainly wasn't a Premiership reserve fixture.

While I understand the doom and gloom following recent results am I the only one who thinks the board may have been quite clever with their three year deal for the Jimmy's. I've been reading all the wrist slitting threads and while I may have woken up last night in a sweat thinking about who next years team would be made up of... Surely Calderwood's stock is at an all time high. If ever there was going to be an approach from a Championship Club it would be now. Is it possible that there was no financial outlay bar free signings on short term contacts in January because the board are aware that approaches are going to be made for the management? It kind of makes sense to me, possibly Jimmy has told Miller and Nicholson he will take them with him, hence them not signing new contracts. I know Cheltenham made more out of Carlisle taking John Ward off their hands not long after him signing a long contract than they ever made out of player sales. Why change from the rolling contract now unless they could smell the filfee lucre?

99 Problems (But The Pitch Ain't One).
baggy89 replied to Superstar Tradesman's topic in Aberdeen Football Club
They do my ween loons got one its just nae official there's nae sponsor and nae nike badge other than that its nae bad there's a club badge and it's got a wee white collar. Also widnae trust the computer system for tickets my mate bought his Caley and hearts tickets at the same time because he was offshore at the time of the hearts game, when he phoned for his munich ticket he was told they "couldn't see" his hearts ticket and he would have to bring his stub to the ticket office when he collected his bayern ticket (he'd given it to mate as he was away). Thankfully it apperared on the gadgies screen and he got it sent out ot him, but he was worried and piss off for a few minutes. -
These guys have spent the money, taken the time aff work and made the effort tae go to Munich... WISE UP FFS

Aye I'm making my way up for this game and have yet to see Aberdeen lose "live" since moving away fae Aiberdeen. Then again if the planes trains and automobiles da go to plan I may not make it and we'll lose anyway. However I may now have jinxed my odd run...

CHICKEN! Didn't want to face Ricky Foster obviously.

Be disappointed if that was the case with these lads why go to the time and effort of loaning them out if it's not for the clubs benefit.

Transfer news - Clark, Hart, Nicholson, Dobie, Bus latest
baggy89 replied to Kowalski's topic in Aberdeen Football Club
I watched Dobie miss an open goal from inside the six yard box last season. Then again Miller couldn't score for Toffee in League One so who knows. -
I signed Vidarsson on FM07, always scored against the huns. Think I sold him to Gretna after a few season for £1million.

Surprised Shrewsbury's ground isn't in that list, that really was like going back in time pissing up against a stone wall, aye, it was the actual bogs. Have to agree with the City Ground as well. It is a proper ground you can feel the history of the place walking round it. Even said to my mate it has the same feeling as Pittodrie has when you go in. Love how the main stand exit is the end to a street of terraced houses.

After my unfailing optimism yesterday here's more... I reckon Nicholson will stay he may think the grass is greener, but he's smart enough to realise it's nae. As for the other two and especially Clark (Aberdeen lad never left the area for any length of time) Plymouth is a fuck of a long way to go and the South West is incredibly insular. However, If he does fuck off then, as has been said before, WHAT EXACTLY have we lost: Clark - what position is it that he actually plays? What is the point in him? Does he add anything to the team? Hart - A right back! The easiest position on the park nowadays, how often does he come up against a top class left midfileder? The guffies can't find one and they are the greatest footballing nation on Earth . Nicholson - Don't get me wrong he's been good this season, but what is that compared too, Seve, Clark? Touzani outshone him in Madrid and hasn't held down a regular place since! Get Zander signed up and I'm with the majority on here. We won't miss them as long as Jimmy gets working on QUALITY replacements to freshen up the squad. Then again there may be a big shock for us all as Jimmy promotes some youth teamers. :lolabove: :lolabove:

So he's knocking off someone else's wife then.

Didn't Robo say he lived doon the road fae Chris Clarke, if thats nae yer source min make sure you kick yer ball into his garden the night. If Seve, Hart, and Lovell are off surely we should be offering the increases offered to them to Nicholson.
-
Eh? Where did I say they were the same type of player? Shearer you've said is a bona fide hero, but Windass isn't? I never claimed he was a "great" either but lets face it he's done more since leaving, than any other of our players, over the last fifteen years, did in their entire career. I'm sure he was a hero at Hull, Bradford, Oxford, and Boro so to say he's not a hero to anyone outwith this club is also a bit wide of the mark.
-
I did kinda think that after I jumped in but then surely neither is Deano or Shearer?
