Maybe they have room in their squad for players who play in slow motion.

I take it you never saw him play?

if this is the route the club want to go down, why don't they just set up a more official way of doing it on here? No one would have a problem with that would they and it could, heaven forbid, actually improve communication between the club and the gullible clowns.. sorry, fans.

Don't think we'll pick any replacements up for them in this transfer window though, Dave.

bar the youngsters there's not a single player i'm happy with at the club, but that doesn't mean they won't be used next season or that we should discount them when we're looking at who to bring in.

if it means the money goes towards another striker or another midfielder then I'm all for it. We've got McArdle, Diamond, Considine, Ifil, Foster, Grassi (unfortunately) as well as Smith from the youths. That should be enough cover for the back.

McGhee has rubbished reports that we're after Burton O'Brien.

Dear christ. what is wrong with you man?

Look at the problems it caused us with Jackie McNamara.

A lot of good people come from cumbernauld i'll have you know...

8-10 signings was never happening, no matter how many times they said it.

weren't you worried before this?

When has the club - or any club for that matter - told their fans exactly what is going on? Why do we need to know how the players are feeling? If next season starts badly what difference does it make if the club is saying "Sone is feeling a bit unloved/ill/upset at being played out of position"? We can't fix that, the club can fix it. If anything it just opens another can of worms which the fans will likely moan about. Just because there are more avenues for reporting this stuff it doesn't mean we have to be drip fed absolutely everything going on at Pittodrie. I work for a huge company with thousands and thousands of shareholders, if they knew some of the stuff going on in the business they'd probably pull their money out. But, as it happens, their investment is pretty sound. It's only the end result that matters, not necessarily how we get there.

not as daft as i thought he was then.

aye, he liked a goal against the Diet Huns, that's for sure!

True aye, he did play in midfield for a period. (as has Mackie, right enough) Always felt Windass never performed against the OF, only got one goal against them, a penalty v the tims at Pittodrie after Shearer got Stubbs sent off on his debut.

yeah, so is that stat i posted up

according to Wiki, deano got 23 in 78 (0.29 Goals per Game)

In his second he didn't have the insurance of Severin either beside him or behind him, I'd say that made a fair difference not only to Kerr but also to the whole side.

only one sombrero was filled with E. the donkey, however, was pilled up to fuck.

So why did people feel the need to justify it by saying he "scored in dnipro" or he scored "at Parkhead in the SC"? I have consistently said in this thread if he's due it then it shouldn't be denied, i'm only saying that if people think that two significant goals (one of which turned out to mean nothing, unfortunately) justifies it then they're tripping. it's fuck all to do with "plays for the jersey" etc, he's been here ten years so he gets a testimonial.

why does that matter? he's useless. I'd rather have guys who don't support us but can actually play football. If Mark McGhee signed 8 guys this summer of his ability but all supported the Dons you'd be fucking raging, and rightly so. So why is it acceptable here? As i said, i wouldn't wish to deny him a testimonial if he's due it.

If the club granted him a testimonial i wouldn't wish to deny him of that, please do not think that. The thing that gets me is the readiness of certain fans to excuse this guy of a decade of incompetence due to 2 goals apparently - I'm assuming the other is the SC goal at Parkhead, which came within a year or so of the other. So he had how many years of doing nothing worthy for us? I'm not one of these fans who hates Mackie. I came to accept he'd be with us for a long time some years ago. I just can not pretend he's anything other than shite. He isn't the modern day equivalent of John Hewitt, he isn't even the modern day equivalent of Steve Cowan. Some folk seem to think it makes them better fans if they give old Barren their unreserved backing.. it doesn't. It just makes them look stupid. He plays for Aberdeen so I'll support him, but i'll never pretend he's anything other than what he actually is. Good luck to the guy, he's lived my dream, but i'm not going to kid on he's anything other than what he is.
