Server issues, possibly. Same as we had when we went down the "shared-hosting" route. I'd love to see how that site copes when they get excess people navigating their way around the site on a huge matchday ... especially if they're still planning on launching a news section. Good on them, I say. The more Dons sites online, the better. Nice to have some competition ... finally!!! It's only taken five years of being on our own for another site to appear!

Maybe I've missed something glaringly obvious since I left Scottish shores some four years ago ... but isn't Klos still at Rangers? I seem to remember him being EASILY the best keeper in the league not so long ago? What's happened to him? Perhaps someone can enlighten me.

Preecey was okay. Nothing more than that. As Johnny Mac suggested earlier, Kjaer has been the only real goalie we've had of recent times who's been "good". He was old and fat ... but he was phenomenally acrobatic and commanded his area well. And he came off his line, which is something that plagued Preece.

Wasn't Andrew Shinie the last Press Officer that we had? Agree that it is a role that is drastically in need of resurrecting at Pittodrie. I think we got rid of Shinie when it was clear that Keith Wyness was capable of handling just about any flack that was fired in the direction of the club. But now there's nobody to do this job. Yeah, so Calderwood is a good face for the public. He always has been and always will be. He's as press-safe as Jim Leishman. But there's only so much crap that an Aberdeen manager can deflect ... even if that Aberdeen manager is Jimmy Calderwood. A club that is at the mercy of The Sun, the Daily Record, and now seemingly Aberdeen's very own gutter-rag the Evening Depress should really be hiring the services of a press officer. If any club needs a sole individual to handly the crap, it's Aberdeen.

I remember watching that on tele. I wasn't sure what game it was, but I remember Big Brian giving someone a real clattering, and the opposition fans baiting him with "Brian Irvine, yer such a f'in penis, Brian Irvine yer a horse's arse!". I couldn't remember for the life of me who that opposition was, and just when I read your post I distinctly remember a straggley haired gimp falling over, and Big Brian just standing over him shouting all manner of profanities that I'm sure he didn't learn in church! What a player!!!

I read an article on the Dondeh pages saying that Dyron Daal had signed a contract with Dundee. What's everyone's thoughts on this? I thought he was going to be another one of these "one-for-the-future" players. Seems a strange move from the Dons, offloading a promising striker. Then again, I suppose Daal has been dicked around by the Dons for long enough on this amateur contract that he's been on for sixteen years! In the end he has to think about his own interests.
