	Firstly no intention to wind up Rico ( but it is a bonus) by starting this more than forty eight hours ahead of January window closing BUT as a squad we are all over the fucking place and even at this early stage I would imagine we all would have opinions on what need to happen over the summer.
</p>

<p>
	Appreciate that certain things might be addressed in the remaining forty eight odd hours of the winter one BUT given our performance to date, coupled to us being manager less, I wouldn't stake any money on it
</p>

<p>
	Thoughts lads and lassies

	An AFC limerick thread was started by Radiored (neeps as was) way back in 2019.<br />
	Saw mentioned it was missed so bringing it over here. Rico has approved this <span class="ipsEmoji">😉</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Here’s the very first limerick from Radiored (the master of the gemme) which was dedicated to Cosgrove
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<span style="background-color:#fafafa;color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;">A useless big laddie called Sam</span><br style="color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;" />
	<span style="background-color:#fafafa;color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;">Like a ham sannie devoid o' the ham</span><br style="color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;" />
	<span style="background-color:#fafafa;color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;">But at penalty kicks,</span><br style="color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;" />

	<span style="background-color:#fafafa;color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;">made the keeper feel like a right bam</span>
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">And the final offering from Swaddon</span>
</p>

<p>
	<span style="background-color:#fafafa;color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;">The Dons have been battered in Greece</span><br style="color:#333333;font-size:13px;text-align:left;" />

	New kit coming tmrw by the looks of things. Wise to get it out before the final, although an expensive week for anyone looking to get it or who will have a 10yo jumping up and down with excitement.

	I'm fully aware I'm getting more cranky with each birthday that passes by but surely my latest peave is justified.
</p>

<p>
	Went to get a ticket for the Livingston Friday night game.  £3.50 to have it posted or £2.50 to collect it from Pittodrie.
</p>

<p>
	No thanks.

<span><strong>Aberdeen FC set to move</strong></span></p><p>
<strong>EXCLUSIVE</strong></p><p>
By Charlie Allan <img alt=":wave:" src="https://www.donstalk.co.uk/uploads/emoticons/wave.gif.6d529e14c5686112e0b90638a0fb483e.gif" loading="lazy"></p><p> </p><p>
Published: 03/04/2009</p><p> </p><p>
THE Evening Express can today reveal the preferred location for Aberdeenâ€™s new community stadium.</p><p> </p><p>
The Â£38 million community facility, which will become home to Aberdeen FC, will be at Loirston Loch in the south of the city.</p><p> </p><p>
It follows a year-long series of feasibility studies to decide if the site at Nigg would be the best location for the stadium.</p><p> </p><p>
The report on the recommendation of the Nigg site will now go out to consultation and will be referred to the councilâ€™s policy and strategy committee on April 28.</p><p> </p><p>
A number of other potential sites across the city, including one at Kingâ€™s Links, were examined by Aberdeen City Council and Aberdeen FC and it was decided all of them were unsuitable.</p><p> </p><p>
Aberdeen FC managing director Duncan Fraser, who is also a member of the Arena Project Advisory and Monitoring Board created to advise of the best site and stadium design, said: â€œThese recommendations have still to be approved and at the appropriate time, there will be a full consultation process with fans.</p><p> </p><p>
â€œTheir feedback will be important.â€</p><p> </p><p>
For more on this story, and an exclusive image of the new arena, pick up todayâ€™s Evening Express or check back later </p></div></blockquote>]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">2019</guid><pubDate>Fri, 03 Apr 2009 11:08:19 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Welcome to the new DonsTalk!</title><link>https://www.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10873-welcome-to-the-new-donstalk/</link><description><![CDATA[<p><img class="ipsImage ipsRichText__align--block" data-fileid="2322" src="https://www.donstalk.co.uk/uploads/monthly_2026_07/DONSTALKRed.png.30b652165fd45bc3e17d720b31731877.png" alt="DONSTALK Red.png" title="DONSTALK Red.png" width="600" height="145" loading="lazy"></p><p>Welcome to the all-new DonsTalk, the ultimate online home for Aberdeen FC supporters.

	On Saturday 4th July, the Dons will take on Dutch outfit FC Twente Enschede in a wee kick-around at their pre-season training camp in the Netherlands.
</p>

<p>
	Most famously, they sold Theo Snelders to us in 1988 for £300,000, and he was quite handy between the sticks. One of their assistant coaches is one Jeffrey de Visscher, formerly of this parish. Scott Booth also had a spell with them. We have so much in common.
