  1. Here’s my take on it.

     

    A commitment appears to have been made for investment of funds.

    One of those investment commitments appears to take the individual / group above the 30% threshold meaning under Public limited company, they must make an offer for the remaining 70%.

    The individual / group do not intend to make such an offering, therefore the plan is to make the company a private limited company, thus negating rule 9 of the public limited city code.

    There also appears that there is sufficient agreement amongst the major shareholders that this will be approved on July 2nd, allowing the secured funds to then be released.

     

    So in summary, the money is there and this is a process to release within the required needed time.

  2. Nah

    Exotic is what it’s all about.

    Why haven’t they made the draw already?

     

    The final qualifications have just came through this weekend.

    There is a preliminary round before QR1 and the draw for that is on 11th June.

     

    QR1 draw is a week later on 18th June

  3. A few known names in there, but many complete unknowns. They probably would say the same about us mind.

  5. I know we ain't secured European football yet if at all for next season but let us have a bit of fun but no cheating!!

     

    Who would beat us First Round in continental competition then go on and win said trophy??

     

    Which beaten team in initial question from same country as above winning side had also knocked us out First Round and were again losing finalists a few years earlier??

     

    What was the answer?

  6. Still some teams to be finalised but we would be seeded to draw one of these teams so far in QR1.

     

    Levadia Tallinn Est 3.250

    Dunajska Streda Svk 3.125

    MFK Ruzomberok Svk 3.125

    Torshavn Far 3.000

    Chikhura Sachkhere Geo 3.000

    Debrecen Hun 3.000

    Torpedo Kutaisi Geo 2.750

    Milsami Orhei Mol 2.750

    Honvéd Budapest Hun 2.500

    Flora Tallinn Est 2.500

    FK Liepaja Lat 2.500

    Cliftonville Nir 2.500

    Hibernians FC Mlt 2.500

    KR Reykjavik Isl 2.500

    Balzan FC Mlt 2.250

    Shamrock Rovers Irl 2.250

    Siroki Brijeg Bos 2.250

    Connah's Quay Wal 1.750

    Runavik Far 1.750

    St. Patrick's Athletic Irl 1.750

    Petrocub Hîncesti Mol 1.550

    Inter Turku Fin 1.455

    RoPS Rovaniemi Fin 1.455

    KuPS Kuopio Fin 1.455

    Breidablik Isl 1.450

    Stumbras Kaunas Lit 1.350

  7. I know we ain't secured European football yet if at all for next season but let us have a bit of fun but no cheating!!

    Nah, mind blank on this one.

    Will look forward to seeing the answer.

     

    On a separate point, seeing as you bring up Europe and assuming Celtic beat Hearts, then we would be seeded for QR1 and QR2.

     

    SevCo and Killie would be seeded in QR1, Killie unseeded in QR2 and SevCo looking to just miss out on seeding in QR2.

     

    There are 8 seeding spots left and we know the following 4 countries will return a higher co-efficient: -

     

    EL23 (*) Cro 5.475

    EL23 (*) Den 5.405 - 7.500

    EL23 (*) Den 5.405

    EL3 Sui 5.380 - 18.000

     

    That leaves 4 spots.

     

    We would definitely take one of the spots if Celtic beat Hearts

    EL13 * Sco 4.425 - 5.500

     

    If the better teams on paper from Isreal, Slovakia and Romania qualify, it would push SevCo out of the seeding.

     

    CW Rom 4.000 - 12.500

    CW * Slo 3.750 - 18.500

    EL2 * Isr 3.725 - 12.000

    EL2 * Rom 3.500 - 23.000

     

    There's also a Bulgarian qualifier from QR1 that is seeded to be above SevCo

    EL2 Bul 3.500 - 27.000

     

    In summary, if all the results are as expected, SevCo get pushed down to the 2nd highest co-efficient unseeded side in QR2.

    They need two results unexpected out of the 6 available to get seeded in QR2

     

    The 6 teams that can push SevCo out of QR2 seeding: -

     

    Ludogorets Razgrad - Bulgaria - 27.00

    FCSB Romania - 23.00

    NK Maribor Slovakia - 18.50

    Astra Giurgiu - Romania - 12.50

    Hapoel Beer-Sheva Israel - 12.00

    Aberdeen - Scotland 5.50 (Celtic beat Hearts)

     

     

  8. More to the point for us now. If derby do win that could likely make Max Lowe unlikely to feature for them. Might even get a chance to sign him.

     

    Lets hope so

     

    Max Lowe wants to help Aberdeen book their Europa League return this weekend - just in case the Derby County left-back returns to Pittodrie on loan again next season.

  9. Robbie Hedderman also get involved with community coaching sessions.

    He's taken part in coaching primary school coaches as well.

    Comes across as very likable and makes it easy to break down sessions into easy stepping stones for youngsters to build on.

  10. Plenty promoted teams don;t go an change out their whole squad.

    I wonder if Derby will be the same.

     

    Also plenty of players who have went down there, played well and fitted in.

    Fraser, McLean, Armstrong and McArthur.

    Plenty of “Premiership” players that he has competed with in the SPFL I.e Arfield, Barton, Mulumbo etc

     

    It will be interesting to see how he gets on.

     

  11. With Derby's LB issue and Lampard apparently watching the cup final v Celtic, it would not be surprising if he went back to Derby in January.

    Incidentally, has Forrest managed to get out of Lowe's back pocket?

  12. I think it will be a tough game and can see the desire to rest some players.

    With two tough games to come, I can see DM sticking.

    Only 4 games to go till the break, manage the rest through less intensive training.

    COME ON YOU REDS!

     

    In

    Work then driving

    Narrow Aberdeen win
