sorted

Press conference called for Tuesday: Aberdeen have called a Tuesday media conference amid growing speculation concerning the future of manager Jimmy Calderwood and several key players. Like many of his first team regulars, Calderwood is out of contract at the end of the season. Calderwood has been discussing a new deal, while a Monday deadline was set for a quartet of players. Zander Diamond, Michael Hart, Chris Clark and Barry Nicholson are all considering contract extensions. The players are free to negotiate with other clubs and director of football Willie Miller told BBC Sport that Aberdeen had made the best offers possible. He also revealed that Plymouth boss Paul Sturrock had made an enquiry about one of the four but had not tabled an offer. Calderwood's future has been under scrutiny for some time. "Nothing is certain," Calderwood told the P&J. "My own contract situation is no nearer to being resolved and we are not that far down the road. "The situation is I am waiting for the club to get back to me. "But it is wrong for people to jump to a conclusion where negotiations with the players and the club, and my own talks about a new contract, are linked." The club aim to keep Calderwood at the helm and managing director Duncan Fraser said: "If Jimmy is on the verge of quitting I've not been made aware of it. "An offer is on the table and it is now a case of whether the manager will accept it or not." Meanwhile, Aberdeen will this week give a trial to out-of-favour De Graafschap defender Dave Bus. And former Charlton Athletic centre-half Jonathan Kurrant has left the club after only six months by mutual consent.

Good news at last Looks like what i've said all along is coming true Easier to get a ticket for Munich than Pittodrie

What a fucking non event of a story/headline 12:00 - 07 January 2008 Dons boss Jimmy Calderwood is considering quitting the club. Four key players - Zander Diamond, Michael Hart, Barry Nicholson and Chris Clark - also look set to move out before the summer. Plymouth Argyle are understood to have already tabled a six-figure bid for Hart and Clark. Dons football director Willie Miller admitted he is concerned by developments, but vowed to do all he can to persuade Calderwood to stay at Pittodrie.

what time are the online articles normally update, because cannae read the stories behind the headlines yet

I honestly believe that Calderwood rates himself that highly................sad to say but i really am coming around to the way of thinking that it might be for the best if he goes.

Possible vacancy coming up at Newcastle

Is there any truth in the rumour that the six figure sum for Hart and Clark is £100,002.50 ? and broken down as £100k for Hart and £2.50 for Clark Alternatively might be a BOGOF deal on the pair

Crikey, and to think I thought I was taking a hard line stance here

Some might cynically say his own imaginary reputation

The thing is Calderwood ain't going to leave now however without a new job, as apart from anything else he'll be wanting to hog the media spotlight surrounding our Munich ties and League Cup semi final in the hope of enhancing his reputation

Why let the facts stand in the way of a good argument

Blame the tombola

JC iskey to the whole thing here. If he stays I expect Diamond and definitely Barry Nic to stay. Hart I beleive will go and Clark as I've said elesewhere has to leave Aberdeen. If however Calderwood isn't commiting to a new contract, then we undoubtedly have a major problem facing us, as he shouldn't be given a penny of our limited funds to sign a single player. Having said that, what type of player, other then a desperate one without a deal elsewhere is going to jump ship and come to Pittodrie in the knowledge that they guy that wants to sign him is demonstrating no commitment to the cause himself. Think we're heading into an interesting couple of days at AFC.

Course you are, what the fuck took you so long

Exactly as i've said a number of times, so totally agree with you GS. If you have a chief that doesn't commit, then can you really expect the indians to do so. Calderwood is and remains the key to all of this.

Guess my lack of student education shines through Jim

Rumoured to be £3.5k to £4k per week but never confirmed
