mizer Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Good news but also bad news as we need another player. Quote
bilbobaggins Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Nothing bad about the news at all, he's like a man short. Quote
CtS Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 He's shite, but as usual he'll be replaced with a cheaper, even more shite alternative. So that's bad. Quote
scotfree Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I thought he did no too bad for us. At least he played for the team unlike some. And yes i know thats not good enough but what else do we have? Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 And yes i know thats not good enough but what else do we have? A new selection of gnomes in the club shop. he was a very poor player, looked as though he was running in treacle most of the time. Quote
Madbadteacher Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 So now we're scouting not only for heartz, dundee utd and plymouth, but also Italian clubs? Hope we're getting a finder's fee! Quote
scotfree Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 A new selection of gnomes in the club shop. he was a very poor player, looked as though he was running in treacle most of the time. I'm no being funny but do you think we will get a better player in the up coming transfer season? Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I'm no being funny but do you think we will get a better player in the up coming transfer season? In fairness, we can't get much worse. McGhee said of Grassi that he cost us a number of goals and therefore points last season. If he can't scout a player who is capable of getting a better review than the one he gave Grassi then he probably shouldn't be in the job, and none of that is anything to do with money. Quote
maverick sheep Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Grassi agrees new deal with Aberdeen FC Davide delighted to be coming back By Sean Wallace Published: 16/06/2010 ITALIAN defender Davide Grassi today revealed he has agreed a new one-year deal with Aberdeen FC. Mark McGhee initially offered Grassi a short-term six month contract. But the former Parma youngster insisted he was worth a longer deal and successfully thrashed out an extended offer during showdown talks. Grassi said: “I got what I wanted as I have agreed a one-year contract with Aberdeen FC.” Quote
McMaster Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Ok, being realistic, how many players are we needing in now?!!! I aint panicing but when you realise how long it is til the season starts, we really need players in very shortly. I would prefer it if the new boys had some form of preseason with what little players we do have in. Just wondering as well how far down the list of his 100 players he is down to now!! Out of contract players will only be about for a wee while and we cant afford to hang about otherwise we will have a team of loan signings!! I take it the Lee Miller money is still available to spend . . . . . . . Quote

McMaster Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/a/aberdeen/8746616.stm He's definately away, i think Quote
Jute Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 No loss other than the fact it leaves us another body down. Quote
Ptayles Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I hear that he is off to Inter. Benitez looks like he was needing a replacement for Maicon Quote
bilbobaggins Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 So we have a first 11? Clangers Foster Considine Diamond McArdle Fyvie Pawlett Young Grimmer Aluko Paton Sub. Mackie Am I missing anyone? Considering both Fyvie and Grimmer are 16 Mark McGod should realise we do actually need 10 players. This could be a revolution, Quote
bilbobaggins Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 I missed Ifil and Maguire. Almost Freudian that. Quote
RDU_64 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Shite player. Plenty leaving and one signing thus far. My apathy is only growing. Must get round to renewing my season ticket at some point. *Yay, Happy 1000th post to me!* Quote
redordead Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 If diddies like grassi think they're better off elsewhere then we may as well board up the turnstyles. Whilst far from sad to see him go, I am embarrassed for the club that someone playing way above his level has turned his back on them. MMG must be bricking it. I know last year was poor, but surely someone would still like to play for us! Quote
McMaster Posted July 1, 2010 Report Posted July 1, 2010 Yeah good point. Werent they cueing up to join us earlier?? Dread to see that list as well. Yardley, Kiriakov, etc etc . . Quote
Sharpie Posted July 2, 2010 Report Posted July 2, 2010 I see it as a positive. I think it shows the club were only willing to pay him what they thought he was worth. If he gets to earn similar in Serie Z then so be it. Good luck to him and thanks for the effort toward the tail end of his Aberdeen career. Quote
Madbadteacher Posted July 2, 2010 Report Posted July 2, 2010 Next step for Grassi "Vuoi patatine con questo?" Quote
