Kowalski Posted April 20, 2009 Report Posted April 20, 2009 Injury blow for Aberdeen FC’s Diamond Aberdeen FC defender out for the season By Charlie Allan Published: 20/04/2009 ABERDEEN FC defender Zander Diamond’s season is over. Aberdeen FC manager Jimmy Calderwood today confirmed Diamond will require surgery to the ankle injury aggravated during their 2-0 defeat by Celtic in Glasgow. And it looks as if it’s going to be a triple whammy for Aberdeen FC, because it’s feared Jamie Smith and Derek Young could also sit out the rest of the campaign after suffering hamstring injuries.

stubo72 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Posted April 20, 2009 Smith Must Go! Good player when fit, but when is he ever actually 100% match fit?! Quote
Harcus Posted April 20, 2009 Report Posted April 20, 2009 I think it's got to the point where even a pay as you play contract might be a waste of time - at the minute he's taking up a wage and a spot in the first team squad that could be better used elsewhere. It's no use to him or us coming back for a game or two or then doing his hamstring again. Cheerio. Quote
