Only reason for making Diamond Captain that I can see is that it would give us extra levarage on getting the fee up when we eventually sell him. Do not think there is any other reason as can still lose the heid a bit to easily for my liking.

Agreed Ajja. It is not so much the players leaving that bothers me (fact of life for a club of our size) its the worry of if they will be replaced by a player of equal or better quality.

Will not be bothering turning up to a testimonial for Mackie. I know has a local loon, would run through walls for the club etc but he is a pish footballer and should have been punted long ago.

No but McVitie keeping fit might well be a major factor in them getting up or not.

Seen Peterhead play with and without McVitie and they look like a far better team with him playing.

Saw him play a couple of times for Peterhead and stood out in both games however as both games were in the 2nd division hard to tell how he would have faired at SPL level.

A good player who will be hard to replace. Cannot think of any players on the go in Scotland that we could get into replace him that we could afford. Will leave us short of a centre half and a midfielder.

Was going to ask the same question.

Even at mediocre he was a better option than Mackie on the wing but if you cannot get a game for whatever reason in front of Mackie then I suppose it really is time to move on.

Saturday was an oppertunity lost to give the worst Hun team I can recall seeing (and I am old enough to remember the pish Hun teams of the 80s) a right good doing. They were there for the taking but for what ever reason be it poor form or negative tactics we failed to do that. Was left feeling very frustrated on Saturday and a bit disappointed that so many Dons fans now see a negative 0-0 against a weak Hun team as a good result.

Think the guy your thinking of is Kula at Peterhead.

It would be competative but also shit as all the money would follow the old firm and the decent players would follow the money.

About 15 mins walk.

True. Only got to look at Huns. A few years back they had 9 or 10 players in U17 squad and of them only Fleck (who was playing above his age level) has made it anywhere near the first team. Was just pointing out that we have had this sort of numbers before at this level and nothing has come of it.

Edit meant to add will be there.

We had this sort of representation before in the U17 ,U18 and U19 set ups problem is they do not seem to make the step on from there.

Would still like us to sign a decent partner for Miller as think Aluko is needed wide to create chances. Also as much as I enjoyed winning on Sunday I still think we have someway to go before we are the finished article. Its only two weeks since we lost without any fight and were out played at Hamilton and made look very poor by Alloa.

What time did you make it up the road and did they make you pay extra on top of your £5 return.

Well are on a bit of a run now so can see them closing the 9 point gap also think that Hibs could also come back into it now that they have replaced the clown in goal with the bald Polish bloke who's name I forget form United. Still think it will be tight between all 5 for third and we will not run away with it because of ability to turn in performances like Hamilton and Alloa as well ones like yesterday.

Agree with funster (yes I do feel unclean) that would only sell if someone came in with an offer that was to good to turn down.

4 fucking two against the tattie munching vermin. Its times like these I hate living away from Aberdeen. Bet the town is jumping tonight. Stuart Duff is a god and clearly benifited from all the advice we gave him in Holland pre season.

What a surpirse we are playing the old firm in nest couple of weeks to Daily Retard and the Hun run stories about other clubs poaching our players/manager. Never fails to happen.

Pretty sure Dons use Albyn for the medical work.

As long as he is replaced by a player of better quality (which lets face it should not be to hard) then I am quite happy for Mackie to be punted as have no fear of Scotlands Michael Owen coming back to haunt us.

As gate is split letting the season ticket holders in for nothing would mean that East Fife would be entitled to claim a proportion of the season ticket money.
