mizer Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 1. If we can get above Hamilton and St Johnstone we get more cash 2. Good for the youth players in the long term. Quote
Azteca1903 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Option 2: There is no point in persevering with players who won't be here next season, while at the same time these games are perfect for including the young lads, certainly more so than throwing them in at the deep end. Quote
tsr Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 I agree, or at least 2) play players who you intend being part of the team next season. Quote
dave_min Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 2 Please. Doesn't the extra cash for league position go to the players? Quote
Jute Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Option 2 would be the ideal however we are skint and at £60K a place we need to get as far up the league as possible. £120K extra for 7th might mean a bit more money to spend in the summer. Quote
scunnered999 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Get rid of the shower of shite that has let us down so badly this season and give the young players a chance to show what they can do. You never know, giving the young lads a run out might actually up attendances a bit??? Quote
tsr Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 2 Please. Doesn't the extra cash for league position go to the players? No, the players don't get a bonus at all for being in the bottom 6. Quote
Kowalski Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 How do we know who's leaving? McGhee wants to keep Kerr apparently. Although I guess we could drop all those who's contract expires in the summer. Quote
mizer Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Posted April 19, 2010 How do we know who's leaving? We don't but I hop MM does by now Quote
Superstar Tradesman Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Frost out those who are leaving now. Those that have been made offers but haven't signed are told to do so in the next week or they join the other non-commited players in the doghouse. New formations are tried out, new captains are given a run out to see how they cope and just for a laugh Mackie gets a chance at being Paul Scholes in midfield. Quote
Guest ally s Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Option one for me. All very well putting in young lads but they've got to be good enough and earn the right to play for the 1st team. Quote
McMaster Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 A bit o both for me. Lets completely make sure we are safe then blend a few of the youth players in. Quote
Mentorred Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Porn. ] Thought you had been watching us getting fucked all season Quote
maverick sheep Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 YOOF!!! Anyone who thinks the extra money would actually make its way into the the playing budget or make any dent in the debt hasn't been paying attention for the last umpteen seasons. The most the money could possibly achieve would be in going towards compensation for those we get rid of. Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Not sure why people are putting faith in a group of players to get us results in the last few matches when they've failed to do that over the majority of the season. Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 Not sure why people are putting faith in a group of players and manager to get us results in the last few matches when they've failed to do that over the majority of the season. Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 That's fine with me mate, if it was a different manager I still wouldn't want that shower of shite playing for us! Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 That's fine with me mate, if it was a different manager I still wouldn't want that shower of shite playing for us! I disagree BB. I think we can aspire to mediocrity with a good few of the players we have. Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 I disagree BB. I think we can aspire to mediocrity with a good few of the players we have. you'll be a long time trying to reach mediocrity with that shower... Quote
glasgowdon Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 I think we should let more youngsters into the team and give them a chance to impress. Might at least show a bit of hunger. Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted April 19, 2010 Report Posted April 19, 2010 you'll be a long time trying to reach mediocrity with that shower... It was just an aspiration. Remember that we are in transition. Quote
One Bobby Clark Posted April 20, 2010 Report Posted April 20, 2010 Given that we're "safe" - barring Nellie the Dons perfect storm happening, I think McGhee should be picking what he thinks is his best team. If there's no pressure on the team, then hopefully, we'll get to see signs of growth for the future. If, however, what we've watched all season is the best that the team can do - then we're fucked.

Kowalski Posted April 29, 2010 Report Posted April 29, 2010 SPL money does not matter to Aberdeen FC Players should play for pride, says McGhee By Sean Wallace Published: 29/04/2010 ABERDEEN FC would land an extra £160,000 cash windfall if they can finish the season in seventh place. The SPL today confirmed the difference between each league position in the bottom six will be £80,000. On current league standings, Aberdeen FC are set to secure £960,000 from the SPL for ninth place. But if they were to leap-frog Hamilton, who they face on Saturday – and St Johnstone, that figure would increase to £1,120,000. Suggest that finishing as high up the table as possible is the priority! Quote
