  1. Milanovic signing confirmed by the club Three year deal // bit.ly/3ZeuG4T Winger Nicolas Milanovic has signed a pre-contract agreement with the Dons after the club agreed an undisclosed fee with Australian A-League side Western Sydney Wanderers. The highly rated 23-year-old will officially move to the North-east of Scotland in the summer on a three-year deal, with a Club option for a fourth. With an eye for a goal during his time down under, the Aussie has impressed with his dynamic performances for Wanderers this campaign, netting 12 times and creating six from 25 league matches. Commenting on his first signing of the summer window, Jimmy Thelin believes Aberdeen will be the ideal platform for Nicolas to fulfil his potential. “Nicolas is an exciting, up-and-coming player who we believe has a very bright future ahead of him,” he said. “We’ve been tracking him for some time and with interest from other clubs in Europe, we’re delighted he has chosen to embark on the next stage of his career with Aberdeen. “He’s made a real impact in the last 18 months in Australia, particularly with his goal contribution and assists and he’s been a consistent figure in the goal charts in the league. “He’ll bring good physicality and as a left footed, right sided winger, he is the profile of a player we don’t currently have in the squad. “His energy and creativity will add a different dimension, and we look forward to welcoming him to Aberdeen this summer.” The Australian U23 international has been a key figure for Wanderers, showcasing his versatility and maturity in various wide midfield and attacking roles. His arrival will provide added competition and depth to the squad for 2025/26. “I’m really excited to join Aberdeen,” said Nicolas. “It’s a Club with a great history and a passionate fanbase and I’m eager to experience all that Scottish football has to offer. “I’m eager to test myself in a new environment and contribute to the team’s desire to deliver to success. I can’t wait to get started at Pittodrie and be part of the manager’s long-term plans.” With the pre-contract agreement agreed, Nicolas will link up with his new teammates for pre-season training in late June.
  2. A damning statistic. Tims actually had four starting as well Finally time for Alan Gow to sign on
  3. And so we reach the stage of the season where our last league game is just a couple of days away. Third place is gone and fourth is by no means certain to be ours. Before a ball was kicked in the summer would we have accepted a semi final, a final and either fourth or fifth place finish. I'd imagine for the bulk of us the answer would have been yes, and whilst I expected ups and downs not sure it would be quite to the extent it has been. One thing is for certain, Jimmy is heading into his third transfer window and it is a crucial one. However, back to the game at Tannadice this Saturday. We really need to get our act together to avoid defeat here and suspect that the Arabs will go for jugular early doors and have the fear that our team doesn't have the backbone to withstand it and we'll be beaten by half time. I have no idea what Thelin can do to get a tune out of what is available to him and to be honest not sure he does either. Thankfully I have a long standing family event on Saturday so won't be there and won't be able to watch it on a stream. This might well prove to be a blessing. 3-0 United
  4. Lewis Ferguson a Coppa Italia winning captain Well done young man
  5. St Johnstone relegated
  6. Away to watch the Italian football now C'mon Fergie
  7. We came flying out of the blocks and managed to concede in three minutes
  8. It does make you wonder what we actually do with the defence in training sessions
  9. Honestly think they could score as many as they fancy doing the way this is shaping up.
  10. Arabs winning at Ibrox Fifth place incoming at this rate.
  11. Make it 2-0 Hibs Third place gone
  12. Hibs ahead inside three minutes
  13. Nope, a 70 year old John McMaster would be shorter odds min I'm guessing you meant McGrath
  14. Sokler is injured Some optimism demonstrated there, thinking a seventy year old is going to score for us tonight

    Assisted Deaths

    Interesting read Rico, take note I am posting a link to a BBC article https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8e6ww5036go
  16. So the Scottish Parliament has passed the first hurdle in this potentially becoming law, although still a long way to go. Are you supportive or not and what is behind your thinking. As one that has experience of family suffering painful protracted death I am very much in the pro camp provided it involves terminal illnesses only, signed off by at least two medical practitioners and is very closely controlled.
  17. Out Golf Watching on TV Bed 2-2 Nisbet & Knoester This point will see us finish above Dundee Utd but expect Hibs to win so third place is gone We'll just have to fuck things up for them by winning the cup
  18. On the his occasion in fairness not convinced there is a case for suggesting that there should be in all honesty. A sorry state of affairs
  19. Livi two up in play off first leg this evening @ Firhill against Partick. Was hoping Partick would get through to the final as would rather them come up than Livi. Think if Livi were to play Dundee or County in the final, unfortunately I think they would probably win it
  20. You are now attributing quotes to me that I didn't make in your last post You are losing it
