  1. Thanks to the city councils antics over the last few years I reckon it would be almost impossible to get a ballpark figure on 1 acre of land in Aberdeen. However 1 acre of land in a city centre will get you fuck all as a developer after the restrictions regarding green space, daylighting, parking etc. Once you get over 3 acres I believe the price starts to go up because you have more freedom. Could be wrong though
  2. Try fixing darren mackies too
  3. 1.1m per acre is one thing Price for 13.7 acres with outline planning consent for x number of houses is another
  4. Not according to wikipedia
  5. Besides the fact he wouldnt be as prolific as his rangers days and that he woudlnt want to be at pittodrie, the name Kris Boyd is not going to have the fans rushing down to the ticket office. If yer gonna break the bank then make it worth your while in the long run
  6. In/Oot: In Pre match: The A9 Match: South Stand (apparently) Post match: Inverness then the A832 Prediction: 2-0 (to someone) Attendance: 3,492
  7. Break the bank for that prick? Wise up.
  8. Diving is the latest buzz word so any penalty given for something less than a blatant headbutt, stabbing, gunshot to the back of the head will have the 'oooh was it a dive' conversation
  9. As if anyone didnt see that one coming. Was amazed he left the central belt for Teeside let alone borderline middle east
  10. Depends if they drop the prices for terracing. They will probably increase them
  11. apparently it was being filmed for a TV show http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/2839909/Hearse-towed-away-for-comedy-show.html

  13. Its a new build though so they will probably want more than 20%
  14. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-16184565 The closing date has arrived for bids to buy Aberdeen Football Club's home - Pittodrie Stadium. The club put the 107-year-old ground on the market earlier this year after securing outline planning permission for 350 homes on the site. The club says the sale of the 13.7-acre Pittodrie site is key to securing the £38m needed to build a new stadium, capable of holding about 21,000 fans. This would be at Loirston Loch on the southern outskirts of the city. Barr Construction - which has built many stadiums - has been named as the preferred contractor. It is hoped the stadium - which is planned to be an iconic landmark - could be ready for the 2013/14 season. In March, Scottish ministers decided against calling in the proposals. The new stadium project was subject to 140 objections from local communities and groups concerned about the environmental impact.
  15. ooo sickner for Fulham
  16. or if no-one bought those tickets from then, a shit crowd but with some cash in advance
  17. Ive watched this a number of times and whilst i find it amusing the thing that is niggling at me is how desparate the boy was to get back on the train. If Id been chucked off like that the last thing Id do would be to try to get back on particularly in such an aggressive (or desparate way). I hope he was just a we ned who wasnt used to people taking action but at the same time I hope we dont see a news story in a couple of days of some boy turning up on a back road to Polmont with his throat cut
  18. Without hacking the club system the only way i can see anyone 'defrauding' the club on that one is to use the old 'im not a student but ill claim I am' or some misguided fools may buy up lots of tickets at the £10 price and then try to sell them onto folk at a higher price prior to match day. Stick a maximum number per person or household or credit card or something but people will always find a way around it. However since we are not barcelona or Man United I really cant see touts being that big an issue (although aberdonians are supposed to be tight bastards)
  19. isnt gonzales leaving in january?
  20. Im still wondering why the club have not tried the same system the transport companys offer ergo the earlier you buy your ticket the cheaper it is They are selling tickets for the remaining home game online right now and I presume I could walk into the ticket office or call them up and buy them too? If you buy your ticket for the game say 8 weeks in advance or earlier then there is a flat rate of £10 for adults and kids for £5 for all areas of the ground. 7 weeks till the game it goes up to £12 & £6 6 weeks up to £14 & £7 5 weeks till kick off £16 & £8 4 weeks till kick off £18 & £9 3 weeks till kick off £20 & £10 (adjust for merkland prices) then with 2 weeks to go its back to the gate prices Yes I know there will be issues with the season tickets etc but im pretty sure these could be ironed out. perhaps have special offers like firends fares (4 adult tickets for £40) Ive yet to hear of a football team anywhere trying this but I think it should be looked into. Might at least start getting football back in competition with the cinema or theme parks as a family afternoon out.

    not being able to afford something does not always stop people buying it especially when they are stupid enough to buy it because its apparenlty fashionable
  22. Just seen the highlights and whilst we are bad I think there needs to be a mention of how bad the BBC open all mikes team are. As i recall the reporter made out that Fyvies cross had been dropped into the net but for some reason an offside flag had been raised so the goal didnt stand. With that in mind I thought Fyvie might be excused the red card given such a strange decision and the fact 2 points were at stake. Turns out the 2 incidents were at least a minute apart. Journalists are getting worse
  23. the follow up to that was Locke apparenlty isnt being paid
