  1. Stephen Robinson could be Jack Mackenzie's new manager allegedly
  2. Four years Second Aberdeen player called Emmanuel in as many days to get that
  3. Apparently there are Huns wanting Russell Martin sacked immediately with the rational for it being he doesn't understand what it means to be a Rangers manager and attended his press conference not wearing brown brogues
  4. Confirmed now, three year contract
  5. Shay Reid, 16 yr old Northern Irish lad with 51 goals this season being looked at according to a down market publication, but I refuse to post a link to it on here. Preston and Wrexham also looking at him. The truth of all of this should be taken with a large pinch of salt of course.
  6. Reports/Rumours circulating that we are in a "battle" with Dundee and English teams to sign Ronan Hale from Ross County. Belfast Telegraph is the source.
  7. Beaten to it by insider dealing Fucking great news
  8. Russell Martin appointed as the Hun's new manager Guess Carlo's boy saw through their bullshit and bolted
  9. Allegedly there is interest in Mitov from south of the border. English Championship (clubs in the plural supposedly) but no names in the frame as of yet.
  10. Actually initially thought you had added an extra letter to the adjective used. Maybe you meant it, maybe you didn't. Works either way
  11. Timothy Akindileni is away to QPR for an undisclosed fee plus add ons. Am I right in thinking that this was the youngster who was reportedly away at the end of January but for reason it didn't happen then ?
  12. As I read elsewhere JINGS, CRIVENS AND HELP MA BOAB
  13. OMG Jesus Christ and every other similar saying all rolled into one The likes of Livi and Falkirk must be rubbing their hands
  14. Winning the fucking lot It's what we're there for
  15. Bojan won't be returning, at least not at this point in his career. If he were to return to these shores then I would expect it to be a club in the top half of the English Championship. Wonder exactly how much of this "alleged" ÂŁ6.8m fee we have actually banked ?

    Major Margaret "Hot Lips"Houlihan aka Loretta Swit. Loved her back in the day. You youngsters have probably never even heard of M.A.S.H If so, you haven't lived lads
  17. Whilst I think he could have done better, I genuinely believe we can do better also, so no hard feelings Jack, you leave as a cup winner and join a team who no longer have the manager that took you there. Good luck
  18. Don't have any axe to grind against any of those leaving and wish them every success** in their future career. ** McGrath less so, given he is going to a rival, albeit it is understandable why he has done this.
  19. Following the conclusion of the 2024-25 season, we can now provide a summer squad update. We are saying goodbye to first-team players Jack MacKenzie, Ross Doohan, Tom Ritchie, and of course, Jamie McGrath who confirmed back in February that he was leaving to join Hibernian. A local loon, Jack was a graduate of the AFC Youth Academy and after a brief loan spell at Station Park with Forfar Athletic, made his first-team debut against Dundee United in March 2021. Across the next four years, he was a regular in Dons’ squads, churning out a total of 123 games, scoring on three occasions, including a memorable strike at Ibrox in a 3-1 win in 2023-24. Jack’s early season form in 2024-25 earned him a call-up to the full Scotland squad for the games against Croatia and Portugal. Jack signed off his Dons career by lifting the Scottish Cup at Hampden on Saturday and collecting a medal as a fitting memory of his Dons career. Ross Doohan joined the club in the summer of 2023, initially as an understudy to Kelle Roos, then latterly Dimitar Mitov. The former Celtic, Ayr United and Tranmere Rovers stopper was used sparingly in his first season, turning out against Bonnyrigg Rose in the Scottish Cup before an appearance against Livingston in the season finale at Pittodrie last May. However, he would play a much more active role in year two, admirably covering for the injured Mitov, featuring in 18 of the Dons’ 50 matches, and never letting anyone down. Number three goalkeeper Tom Ritchie will also depart for the final time, having not made an appearance in the Dons first-team. However, he has enjoyed numerous fruitful loans at the likes of Huntly, Queen of the South, Peterhead, Buckie Thistle and Bonnyrigg that will be extremely beneficial in his future career. Lastly, after two seasons in red, Jamie McGrath has left for the final time. The 13-times capped Republic of Ireland International joined on a free from Wigan Athletic and has enjoyed a fruitful time in the North-east, playing 81 games, scoring 16 times and laying on eight assists. The Dons were keen to retain the midfielder, but a lucrative and lengthy offer in the capital has tempted him south. Also returning to their parent clubs at the end of their loan spells, Kevin Nisbet (Millwall), Oday Dabbagh (Charleroi), Jeppe Okkels (Preston NE), Alfie Dorrington (Tottenham Hotspur) will depart. Also moving on are some members of our development squad. Youngsters Blair McKenzie, Evan Towler, Victor Enem, Fraser Mackie will depart Pittodrie on conclusion of their contracts next month. Dons boss Jimmy Thelin said: “We would like to thank each and every player leaving the club for their effort and contributions whilst with Aberdeen and wish them all every success in their future careers. “Some of these boys have been here for a long, long time and departing a club is always emotional. But they can look back with pride and I am so pleased many of them are leaving with a winner’s medal from last weekend.” THE FOLLOWING PLAYERS WILL LEAVE WITH THEIR CONTRACT EXPIRING: Jack MacKenzie Ross Doohan Tom Ritchie Jamie McGrath Blair McKenzie Evan Towler Victor Enem Fraser Mackie THE FOLLOWING PLAYERS’ LOAN PERIODS ARE COMING TO AN END: Kevin Nisbet Oday Dabbagh Jeppe Okkels Alfie Dorrington
  20. Aye, probably the chance to get him cheap given he was at another of Bloom's clubs
  21. Class from Dorrington. Welcome back anytime.
  22. Kabangu signs three year contract at Hearts as Jambos exercise the purchase option included in his loan agreement. Hope they've paid a right few quid for him.
  23. Just been sent this. Even for a Tim this is a whole other level of entitlement
  24. Neale James Cooper Seven years ago today. Taken far far too young. Bet he had tears in his eyes watching down on Saturday
  25. Despite being a Kiwi
