Not sure he was ever realistically linked with us other than online by fans but we won't be signing Bobby Wales from a Kilmarnock as he has signed a PCA with Swansea City

Agree it is a bold move by the club, but I think it is the right one and i also think we can sell this out, particularly if we keep our current unbeaten run going. The added bonus is that of course it is going to piss off Timothy

Scottish Gas Scottish Cup Final Aberdeen v Celtic Saturday 24th May, 3pm kick-off Hampden Park, Glasgow We can confirm that an allocation of over 20,000 tickets has been secured for Aberdeen supporters for our forthcoming Scottish Gas Scottish Cup Final with Celtic. This will be the largest allocation we have received for a final in recent years and was only secured after agreeing to underwrite the cost of any unsold tickets. After extensive discussions, we were initially faced with the option of accepting a guaranteed 16,800 tickets, with a potential (but not guaranteed) additional 2,000 tickets. However, driven by our collective belief and confidence in the Red Army, and wanting to give every Dons supporter the best opportunity of being there to back Jimmy and the team on Saturday 24th May at Hampden, we agreed to underwrite a larger allocation which includes the North Stand up to the halfway line. We believe this significant allocation is a testament to our commitment to ensuring as many fans as possible can support the team at this crucial match, our first Scottish Cup Final since 2017. Ahead of the League Cup Final with Rangers in 2023, which was our last final at Hampden, our allocation sold out within a matter of hours, and we expect demand to be similar this time round as we look to bring the Scottish Cup back to Aberdeen for the first time since 1990. With the above in mind, we advise all Dons supporters to use the coming days to organise friends and family to be ready to secure your tickets on Monday 5th May, as we aim to make history together. Ticket prices have been frozen from last year’s final with concession pricing in place in all areas of the stadium. Full ticket information can be found below.

One time we were in pre match, standing against the bar and one of my mates without thinking pointed over the bar counter at the optics and the big German Shepherd just about had his hand off. He sure as hell didn't make that mistake again

Oh for the halcyon days of The Alamo

Scott Burns saying that we are not interested in him after all. I guess if we were it would be to replace Tom Ritchie as third choice

Bizarre to say the least. This guy is only nineteen and got a full cap for Nigeria before his seventeenth birthday Goalkeeper Nathaniel Nwosu, who won a Nigeria cap in November 2022 but currently plays for Tayport in the Midlands League, is to join Aberdeen on trial this week having spent last week with St Johnstone and with Stoke City, St Mirren, Dunfermline Athletic and Dumbarton all monitoring the 19-year-old

And then you've got to cut and splice it. The VHS not the pigeon before the animal rights crew jump on board

McTominay with a first half double tonight for Napoli. He really is having the season of his life out there. Man Utd never utilised him properly during his time there. Looking good value to be in the running for top midfielder in Serie A this year

Picked up on the Bushiri thing and thought it was a particularly strange incident. Reckon it is the first time I can recollect such amateur editing with a panel discussing an incident that supposedly wasn't worthy of inclusion on the initial highlights package. Mickey Mouse stuff from the BBC Scotland

Don't bet all you possess against Okkels being at Pittodrie next season Just saying like

Absolutely horrific highlights package from our supposed national broadcaster. Any one tuning in to that without having been at, or watched via a stream would be under the impression that Hibs controlled every aspect of that game until our disallowed goal. How the fuck they found so much to show from a team without a single shot on target is beyond me Whilst I'm at it, don't think Peter Grant (cunt) likes us

In the most un Hun like way I can put this, today is confirmation of what we all knew. Justice at last financially, but for those that gave up on the opportunity of being a professional footballer, I would strongly suggest it isn't really justice

Positively salivating at the prospect of that Please make it happen

Whoever the cunt commentating on our game for the Glasgow Broadcasting Company aka BBC is almost incandescent that Gueye didn't see a straight red. No mention surprisingly (not) of the Motherwell numerous attempts to get Pape sent off

Can't believe the Hun bastards got out of jail at Dens Park earlier. Was hoping for a Dundee win, not only because I hate the Hun cunts but a Dundee win would have put Killie in the play off position

Nae use mate Been to both of them before Would rather a trip to Liechtenstein or Malta for a European qualifier

Which is exactly my point mate PLUS Nisbet has potentially raised his stock so Millwall won't be selling him to anyone for £500k

Living in cloud cuckoo land No chance we are signing Nisbet for £500k

To put today's result into perspective, top six confirmed which means third at the end of the season and European league football guaranteed is still on (Hi Rico) I'm checking my passport expiry date

I'll be astounded but extremely happy if we see Kevin Nisbet in an Aberdeen shirt next season

For clarity much as I think "bang average" is a tad unfair, I am not for one second suggesting we should be spunking seven figures on him, unless it was a penny less than £100k

What a fucking screamer from our number 9

First hour or so this afternoon was probably Okkels most effective hour in an Aberdeen shirt to date.

Third goal was oh so simple and indicative of the sort of goal we have conceded numerous times this season.
