Aztec Camera - High Land, Hard Rain Album still sounds good twenty five years on Incredible to think that Roddy Frame was only eighteen or nineteen when he wrote it

Thought I'd already replied to this, but I'm in as well Bring it on suckers

Christ almighty even before my time Chances are if he joined before 2nd world war, then he might of been in the team at the time we played in black and gold as it was 1939 that the official club colours changed to red and white

Sadly deluded and a bitter fuck who is twisted and believes that our team did him oot of medals at his beloved 'Tic. Actually considering how poor we were, how the fuck did we manage that

5% this season 10 % next season 15% season after next and so on Might as well just hand the briefs over and let them keep all the cash..... after all they're obviously something the rest of us are not

Well if you believe what the Hunday Mail prints, then surprise, surprise, we've given in to the Brothers Grim yet again. What a buch of gutless fucks ABERDEEN have caved in to Rangers' demand for a five per cent ticket handling fee because Dons security chiefs feared a repeat of crowd trouble that has marred the fixture in previous years. Gers travel to Pittodrie in the third game of the SPL season on August 23 with the Old Firm ticket row still rumbling on. The Glasgow clubs have outraged other top-flight rivals by asking for commission when selling away briefs to their own fans. Falkirk, who host Rangers in Saturday's league opener, refused and instead flogged tickets directly to Light Blues supporters. Hearts and Hibs have vowed to do the same but the rest are starting to break ranks. Dundee United backed down when Celtic threatened a ticket boycott which would have cost the Arabs around s100,000. Now Dons have followed suit but safety rather than cash is their biggest concern. Managing director Duncan Fraser said: "We have security and distribution arrangements that are unique to games against the Old Firm. "In the last five or six years those matches have passed almost without incident and only minimal arrests if any. "So we felt it was best that Rangers continue to distribute the away tickets." Grampian Police would be unlikely to allow Dons to risk home fans infiltrating the visitors' section in what is already a powderkeg clash. The clubs have a history of bad blood and former Gers striker Mark Hateley was once attacked by a supporter while players from both teams have been hit by missiles hurled from the crowd. Riot police had to take to the field in 2002 and a female Aberdeen fan was banned for life in 2005 for spitting at Fernando Ricksen. But both clubs have worked hard to stamp out the trouble and don't want to compromise safety. The move will delight Rangers season ticket holders who lost first option on away tickets for the Bairns clash. Despite their stance Dons still aren't happy but know security is the priority. An insider said: "We don't want a situation where there could be trouble in the away end and Rangers say 'It's nothing to do with us.'"

Tango speaketh: Calderwood is quick off the mark Dons manager determined not to lose best players as he moves to get contract deals done By Michael Gannonin Holland Published: 29/07/2008 Aberdeen manager Jimmy Calderwood will waste no time in offering new contracts to Jamie Smith and Scott Severin as he is determined to avoid another exodus of his best players. Calderwood watched Chris Clark and Michael Hart leave in January and then Barry Nicholson follow them out the Pittodrie exit door last season. The Dons manager does not want a repeat. Smith and Severin are both out of contract at the end of the season, but will be offered new deals in the coming weeks. Defender Andrew Considine is set to sign his new contract offer when the club returns from its tour of Holland. Calderwood said: “We have lost a lot of our good players in the past few years and we are well aware we want to get these things done early. “We have not spoken to Jamie or Seve yet, but they are the two big ones we want to get tied up. Hopefully Andrew Considine’s new deal will be finalised when we get back. “It is important to keep your best players, but it is not always easy to stop them if they want to go. “If you look at the players who have left Pittodrie in the last few years they could make up an entire SPL team, which would probably qualify for Europe. “The likes of Barry Nicholson, Chris Clark and Michael Hart would get into any team. No disrespect to anybody, but if we had some of those players last season we might have finished third or even split the Old Firm. “That is the utopia, but you have to keep building while hopefully keeping the best ones. “It is difficult when you are building a team and a club comes in with some money and it is back to square one. “It is not just us who cannot compete with the English clubs, Rangers and Celtic have struggled as well. “There are always wolves at the door and I do not want to lose two of our best players for nothing. “Jamie had a horrendous time with injuries last season, he barely played 20 of our 50 games. “He is potentially our best player, he can win games for us as he showed in Europe, but we need to get him playing consistently. That will come if he stays fit this season and, hopefully, he will be an important players for us.†Calderwood’s side is set for its toughest test of the tour tomorrow night when Aber-deen face Vitesse Arnhem in Driel. The Dons were on course for victory against Second Division side FC Zwolle on Sunday only to concede two late goals.

Nae sure about SuperKev in that list, seem to mind he made it pretty clear early doors he was offski
