Enjoy Munich?

He can easily be added if anybody wants. There are two "Others" - are they both for JC?

Only if Milne pulls all the right strings.

Watched the latest John Pilger documentary, about the media's role in war. Some of it is quite astonishing. The last 20 minutes showing the footage of the helicopter attack on innocent people in Baghdad is enough to make your blood boil! http://www.itv.com/itvplayer/video/?Filter=198443

The girl married to Callum's brother reckons Hibs and Aberdeen are interested in him. His contract is up at the end of this season but may well get offered another contract.

Did you steal the AFC Chat server?

I like it

That's what I said in the Moderators forum but they went ahead and launched it anyway

His teeth that got knocked out by Rummenigge fell out recently, so he's got a gold cap in which has been causing him some speaking problems.

Correct.

His brother lives in Aberdeen and is married to a friend of a friend of mine. Will see if I can find out more.

Will there be a "pies" theme?

Oh yeah I forgot to mention the debt that is due to be paid in March 2011. They are "confident" that negotiations with the bank will be successful, based on SMG and AAM still being part of the club (presumably guaranteeing the new debt after it has been re-negotiated). I didn't get the feeling that the sale of Pittodrie would be used to pay off this debt.

I think we should run a poll on which will be delivered first: Aberdeen's by-pass AFC's new stadrium Donstalk's PM email facility

No sign of him. I think he attends when Willie is up for re-election.

Good to see folk using this thread again. Welcome aboard

Not a great deal to report: There was a big crowd despite the weather All three directors re-elected, with each asked to backup their achievements and hopes for the future (apart from Martin Gilbert who wasn't there); Milne confirming things hadn't quite gone to plan New stadium tenders are out; will go in front of council in February then expected to be called in by the Scottish Government; Hopefully final decision in April (sounds a bit hopeful for the Scottish Government!); Contract to be awarded 1Q 2012; Construction to start 2Q 2012; Finished by start of 2013-2014 season Stadium to cost approx. £35M; £20M to come from sale of Pittodrie (approx. £17M), mortgage and share issue; Remaining money will be a combination of naming rights, sale/rent of offices inside stadium, and thin air Even if we get relegated, the plan is still to move to Loirston; There is no Plan B! Soccer Academy would cost about £4M and funded separately Milne confirmed that the 10 team SPL is AFC's preferred option, seemingly its the only option that works Willie Miller spoke at length with a great deal of passion about the youth development; we now have centres in Dundee, Glasgow and for the first time Edinburgh; He claims we have the best youngsters of any club in Scotland; He also expressed his frustration about the hard time he gets when he is working hard behind the scenes on the youth development; He also says he has been criticised for firing managers but pointed out that he has just hired his 3rd manager in the 6.5 years he has been Director of Football; He spoke very well but he always does compared to Milne Milne confirmed that pay offs for the last management team won't affect the football budget Miller confirmed that Brown and Knox (who were in attendance) have total control over signings and anything to do with the first team; Hoping to make a couple of signings in January I got stuck in the snow on my way back Anyway, on to the best quote of the evening. Hugh Little had to take over the proceedings during the re-election of Milne. He confirmed that Brown and Knox both spoke to Fergie before accepting the job at Aberdeen. And to quote Fergie directly, he told Craig Brown that "You won't find a better chairman in British Football!". Presumably it was Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas!?

I can confirm it's tea, coffee and shortbread! More people here than I expected.

Just got an email from the club - AGM is still on!

I agree but my O/P has been edited saying it's off.
