manc_don Posted June 20 Report Posted June 20 Short sighted fuckwit. Guess those other clubs never existed then, did they. Ah well swift leg break will do, fuck him. 1 Quote
RicoS321 Posted June 20 Report Posted June 20 Fuck him. Hope he doesn't get injured, but simply sits on their bench before spending two years in their reserves and then joining Killie a broken player. Or he breaks his legs in a training ground accident. Quote
baggy89 Posted June 20 Report Posted June 20 Funny they announce Barron the same day it comes to light they can’t afford to pay their builders Make your stadium playable/sign a player from Aberdeen 1 Quote

DantheDon Posted June 21 Report Posted June 21 At least with Mitov signing it would seem we have told them to shove there 500k for McCrorie. Hopefully we get at good chunk of compensation for him. Quote
BigAl Posted June 23 Report Posted June 23 Wondering if Hoillet being injured and withdrawn from the Canada squad if this actually improves our chances of him being at Pittodrie next season as he no longer has a platform to put himself in the shop window Quote
manc_don Posted June 23 Report Posted June 23 Disappointed the Dons didn't keep with tradition an announce a signing on a Scotland game day to ease the inevitable pain. 1 Quote

OrlandoDon Posted June 25 Author Report Posted June 25 What did we get for Ferguson, anyone remember? Fair to say Barron is more established and closer to an internationalist so we should get more money?? Yes, I know, common sense will not apply. Quote
wee toon red Posted June 26 Report Posted June 26 We seem to have paid about £250,000 for Ferguson from Hamilton and the story goes that £500k would be the expected compensation figure for Barron. Quote

It's more akin to the Wright transfer than the Ferguson one in terms of games played and time spent at the club. Sure that was in the region of £400K, with McRorie the payment. Quote
BigAl Posted June 26 Report Posted June 26 Bet the Huns were banking on us gratefully taking Robbie McCrorie as full payment for Barron. Fucking delighted we didn't go down that path. What a thick bunch they really are, took a wee look on Swallow Swallow and the number of them who can't comprehend why they have to pay us anything at all is scary, instead thinking they have signed Barron for free. Worryingly these people have a vote P.S Have run a scan and clean up on my laptop and apologised to it for sending it over there. Quote
OrlandoDon Posted June 26 Author Report Posted June 26 McCrorie was a good bit of business, any Huns worth taking off their hands? If they struggle for funds possible opportunity here? Quote

Worryingly these people have a vote P.S Have run a scan and clean up on my laptop and apologised to it for sending it over there. Hopefully the tribunal will agree a fee of £500K, and the Dons will insist it is paid up front. The Huns will be completely outraged, refer to him as their player, play him in a friendly where he picks up a serious injury. The SFA then refuses to register him as a player until the Huns pay up. They scrape together the money and pay us in early August. Spooked by them refusing to pay a seemingly trivial sum to Aberdeen, the crane company refuses to engage in any further work on their stand until funds are delivered. As creditors continue to call their bluff, the Huns are pulled towards administration. Work on the ground stops, and their fixtures are moved behind closed doors at Airdrie's ground (with murrayfield refusing to host them without up front payment). Over the remainder of the season, things go from bad to worse as they're forced to sell any remaining football assets at way below value in order to fund the shortfall from having no crowd revenue. Hun fans request refunds for their season tickets, refusing to help their club in its time of need, as always. Eventually, the plug is pulled and they head into administration again. With the cost to complete Ibrox deemed too expensive, they are forced to sell it to Aldi, with a view to turning it into an LGBTQ+ sanctuary, refugee outreach centre and petrol station. Several thousand Huns spontaneously combust upon announcement. Edited June 26 by RicoS321 1 Quote

Might still be worth a punt since the jury is still out on Doohan - the fact Roos was never dropped this past season suggests he’s not up to much. Quote

BigAl Posted June 27 Report Posted June 27 Seems as good a place as any to post this link. Certainly not every year we sign nine of the youngster up. Getting Lewis Carrol signed is a big deal as he was wanted by several big clubs south of the border. I'd like to wish all the youngsters all the very best as they set out on their journey and look forward to seeing their progress https://www.afc.co.uk/2024/06/26/afc-youth-academy-the-class-of-2024/ 1 Quote
