According to an Italian Sky sport reporter on Twitter, lazetic is due in Aberdeen tomorrow to have a medical. Free transfer but sell on of 50% depending on appearances (I.e starts at 20%) and increases accordingly.

Have we sold out our end? A good win would do the teams’ and fans’ confidence no end of good. Ridiculous saying it but we need something positive to match on to.

Top advice! I’m sure there’ll be a few who read the board that’ll be going.

Gutted to see him go and as you say jute, we fucked his dons career by pairing him with Malloy rather than someone experienced. There’s a player there and you can’t buy that sort of desire and passion. But ultimately it is for the best, hope he goes on to have a stellar career.

Aye, remembered vinnie being on a long deal but couldn’t remember if it was longer than 4, makes his failure all the more frustrating.

Fantastic city, great night out. I'm sure everyone will have a blast over there!

yes, McKenna I believe, not long before he bolted?

Have started watching Wednesday on Netflix. We’ve run out of things and it’s an easy watch which my wife approves of. Also been watching Brassic. Not sure how this passed me by (thanks Netflix and kids ruining algorithms). Funny as fuck.

Not the worst set of answers given the questions were all vetted by the club beforehand. Interesting to see if either of the rumoured transfers come off today. Deadline for euro registration? And even if they do, what else is in the pipeline.

Anything to rub more salt into their tears is equally positive.

Guess I've never been an away fan there. There were two or three that I'd go to pre-game but they were very much home fans only.

Glad they’re at least able to play in Europe. A comp they could go on to win.

Agree with others, that’s shite and hope you’re in a better condition to be able to at least watch today. I also agree with our elder statesman in that you should, when you’re up to it, write the club to let them know about that. It’s ludicrous and makes no sense whatsoever.

Came on here to say the same thing. That isn’t a bad bit of business by AFC. Hopefully it works out for all parties. Welcome aboard!

Nice to hear the chorus of boos at FT

I’d agree with your last point, Panda. If there was ever a time to play them, it’s now. We need to have the pragmatic side of Thelin here though and if he sets up as he did for the majority of last season (I.e make as weak as piss defensively), then they’ll win. Somewhere along the lines of the cup win might see us through, but the goal scoring threat worries me big time as much as defensively. A draw would be a good confidence booster for all concerned, but we shouldn’t be targeting that. How’re ticket sales for the game? Clearly not a sell out or the club would be crowing about it from the rafters.

Your last paragraph is an interesting one as it can be taken both ways. The overall quality of the league should improve but could this be a case that it won’t matter what we do, youth will always go down south for apparent better money? We’re a long way from being able to compete and nor should we realistically, as it isn’t sustainable, but are we also not already seeing the flip side that has been the case from the cheeks for a good decade or two? A distinct lack of local talent coming through clubs in and around the euro places? More money appears to close pathways off for academy players, as we’ve seen with our own. I’m not sure what the solution is., as people will also leave for reasons.

Can't argue with that at all. Kudos to them both.

Would be pleased for him, always seemed like a proper good player as well as person. We really haven't replaced him and it shows.

Saw a post online which compared the front 4, all bar Yengi had noted interest and received plaudits leading up to the signings, whereas Yengi doesn’t fit into that category at all (currently, but was well thought of in Oz despite never convincing me). I know he doesn’t place much emphasis on the strikers, but why have that as the weakest link?

Feel like we did that in NL under JC. Played both VV Dovo and Utrecht. we lost 1-0 to Dovo and drew 1-1 with Utrecht. Can't remember another time we did something similar?

Watched the highlights and that Yengi miss yikes. With highlights, you can give the benefit of doubt but knowing what I’ve read here and over social media, I know it wasn’t an isolated incident. We need to get a striker in asap, if we leave it until the end of the window, I fear we’ve given ourselves too much to do. Certainly with this team. We really should never have conceded either of those goals, pathetic defending. is Suman actually any good? Feels like we need a good keeper to push mitov, as he seems to have spells like this during the season.

Sounds like it’s going well what do we need to change?

It’s a good line up and not surprising to see palaversa on the bench and nilsen back. We will need his strength and leadership. All this moaning about 50mph winds, you lot need to try living in Wellington, that’s fuck all here, more of a gentle breeze. Doesn’t even register if it’s below 100km and trains and sports continue like normal. Think somewhere win the South Island recently had gusts of 250 kmh which is bonkers. Anyway, I digress, get fucking stuck in and wipe the smiles from attendance FC please.

I’d say 3 or 4 are who we’d like to get. Thelin will understand both sides in pot 3, so that could be our best bet in all honesty. We will of course get panathinaikos
