OK if it was H or H, either or, would it not be worth getting Ahmed now?

From reports I heard he's worth a shot in the SPL

but he left because he had other things to pursue, may not be available/fancy it.  We also got Folly, MM said Hartley will be predominantly defensive minded, would we really need Ahmed? I don't think so.

[Penfold]

Folly, Hartley, Fyvie would be my first choice midfield 3. Then we have Young, Foster, Mackie, Grimmer and other youths to provide cover.

[Kowalski]

Interest in Hendrie and Williams (sounds like a snooker match) has all but ended according to the P&J.

[Stewart]

Probably pish though.

Probably pish though.

Anyone bought an EE today to see what Hendrie has actually said? The deals for Hartley, Folly and Vernon have been concluded so efficiently and professionaly by AFC. This one has been messed up though. Should never have had him pictured on official site wearing AFC top, official site referrring to him as 'new signing' in thge Dunfermline report etc...

Please just get him signed, and we will make up for his wages (in some form) by season ticket sales. if the deal is off, then just tell us ajnd move on.

HANGING ON: Lee Hendrie is waiting for a phone call from Aberdeen FC.

LEE Hendrie today admitted he’s waiting by his phone desperate to come to Aberdeen FC.

The midfielder has been hanging on for more than a week hoping Aberdeen FC boss Mark McGhee will call to seal a deal.

Free agent Hendrie looked certain to become an Aberdeen player after impressing in the 1-0 pre-season loss at Dunfermline, but the transfer stalled as the Dons pursued Paul Hartley.

Hendrie, 33, now wants a final answer from the club

No quotes, no nothing. Surprise surprise.

If he that deperate to play for us and he knows our financial situation then he can lower his wage demands, simple.
I wouldn't mind seeing him in a Dons shirt but if it was between him and Hartley then we have the right guy

[Kowalski]

There are quotes in the paper.
He basically says he was expecting to sign after the Dunfermline game but has heard nothing since, but wants to sign.

Great news!

A decent player, available for free and we're still trying to fuck it up.

 

[Kowalski]

Having both Hendrie and Hartley in midfield would make a huge difference IMHO.  It would almost be seen as a successful transfer window.

We can't pay the guy if we don't have the money to do so Dave.

I'd say it would be seen as a successful transfer window. But we still need a left back.

Hopefully the club can sort it out sooner rather than later. It would give the fans/players/club some much needed confidence! They seem to have dealt quite well with the transfers this summer. Keep it up AFC

When was the last time we had one of those? 

[Harcus]

Surely a transfer window can only be judged successful or not by the time the next one comes around?

[dave_min]

I know, but i'm sure the money could be found. Create some optimism, raise sales, get the money back, etc...

Maybe even win some games too.

But I suppose, this is AFC.

ANYHOW:

Dear Wiggy/Miller/Whoever is holidng the purse strings.


Sign Hendrie and i'll buy a season ticket.

(p.s. Can you buy a left back too)

To be fair, its amazing that they seem to find the money when they REALLY need to. They'd probably be able to avoid random splashes of cash if they invested more wisely. But hey ho, onwards and upwards.

They may also be thinking towards the January window, do we really want to get there with fuck all left in the pot when it's a possibility we'll need reinforcements due to injuries or shitness? In saying that, i doubt anyone's thought that far ahead...

To Be Honest- We really need to have a gamble ffs

I'll refer you to the events of Jan 2010....... January is the worst time possible to be looking for players.

End up paying for players, which If we cant afford Hendrie now then how will we be able to pay a fee for someone?
