BrownyBrown Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 We could be trying to sign Mark Yardley and there would be Aberdeen fans on the internet somewhere trying to find the positives. Mehmet is pish, no thanks. Somewhere? I think we all know exactly where that would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mehmet is pish, no thanks. Too true. MM was supposed to be looking at players in Eastern Europe that Craig Robertson had identified as possible signing targets, he has surely seen a better striker on his travels.

Labirinth7 Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 What depths have we sunk to, when the club is looking at someone like Mehmet as our main striker. and we can't even afford to sign him! How far do we have to fall before Milne will fuck off! Our budget sounds as if it will be lower than las season again. Offloading big earners such as miller, kerr, mcdonald and mulgrew and still struggling to sign mehmet.what the fick is going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would certainly point towards all not being rosey. It worries me that we may well be looking for a manager soon and this plank may be available for rock all.

RDU_64 Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 ‘Move to Aberdeen FC – or put your career at risk’ Pittodrie legend Bett’s warning to O’Brien By Sean Wallace Published: 23/04/2010 TARGET: Motherwell’s Jim O’Brien. More Pictures ABERDEEN FC target Jim O’Brien was today warned snubbing Pittodrie in favour of Rangers could derail his career. Motherwell winger O’Brien is top of Aberdeen FC boss Mark McGhee’s wish list as he looks to rebuild his squad. But McGhee’s plans could be thrown into chaos by league leaders Rangers who are also tracking the 22-year-old. But Dons and Rangers legend Jim Bett insists O’Brien risks his career stalling if he moves to Govan.

mizer Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 ABERDEEN FC boss Mark McGhee today revealed the fate of his out-of-contract players has already been decided. But McGhee will make them sweat until the end of the season on their Pittodrie futures. Stuart Duff, Stuart Nelson and Paul Marshall are all out of contract with Aberdeen FC in the summer. All three started in the 1-1 draw with St Johnstone, but McGhee revealed nothing they do in the remaining games of the season will change his mind on whether they will stay – or go.

tsr Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 If they were staying presumably you'd have to offer them a contract? I got a bad feeling they'll all be staying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick sheep Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I'd be surprised if Marshall stays but surprised if they other two leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDU_64 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 While he's been at the club, Marshall has shown nothing to suggest he would improve the first team/squad, that he would be a decent squad player or that he is just good to have around the place. Bin him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caledonia Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 What depths have we sunk to, when the club is looking at someone like Mehmet as our main striker. The same depths that have kept Mackie here for 10 years when everyone knows he could not hit a barn door even from the inside. 6 players my arse its the same every year 6 becomes 5 someone paid more 5 becomes 4 someone paid more 4 becomes 3 someone paid more 3 becomes 2 signed for Berwick rangers as he thought they had more ambition wait a minute we have 2 players coming back from injury that will do.

RDU_64 Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 In other news BREAKING NEWS Inverness Caledonian Thistle FC today pulled off a re-signing hat-trick as Terry Butcher began work on assembling his squad for the forthcoming SPL campaign. Dubliner Richie Foran, who has hit 14 goals in 35 games this season, put pen to paper on a new two-year contract. Midfielder Lee Cox, 19, signed last summer from Leicester City, has also signed a two year deal. after making 31 league starts. Forward Eric Odhiambo, another recruit from Leicester City who has hit five goals in 22 appearances, has agreed a one-year contract. Manager Terry Butcher said: "All three lads were out of contract at the end of the season so I'm extremely pleased they have committed themselves for our return to the SPL. It's a flying start to my plans for next season and I'll be speaking to other players very soon. "It's a highly encouraging way to go in to our final game with Dundee at Inverness on Saturday." Richie Foran said: "I really enjoy working with Terry Butcher and Maurice Malpas and it didn't take a great deal of persuasion to make me accept a new deal. There's such a tremendous spirit in the camp, I'm hopeful everyone will stay. It was such a sickener to be relegated by a single goal on goal difference a year ago, so it's great to be heading back to the top flight. Thats one potential target out the window.
