What makes you think this? He's happy at Aberdeen. His family are settled. He's on the injury table more often than not, yet he is still guaranteed a place in the senior team when he returns to any sort of fitness. He's basically got a contract on the table waiting for him. What other high-paying club would want Smith with his injury track-record? Thank fuck we haven't replaced him. I'm glad the likes of him, Darren Young, Kevin Rutkiepish, and co are out of the club. They were a cancer on us with the rumoured clique that existed, splitting the dressing room in two ... the group who like to piss about and have a laugh at the expense of others, and then the group who actually tried to take their job seriously. The jovial half used to swan around Aberdeen on a Saturday night like they owned the city. I stumbled across them numerous times on nights out in Aberdeen, and was embarrased by what I saw just about every time. The only remaining members of this shower of shite are Mackie and Derek Young. Fortunately, both seem to have settled down now and got on with trying to make the most of their remaining footballing careers, now that they realise the Hollywood part is behind them. I'd never have Esson back, not in a million years. I might have Preece back, only as a backup though. But not Esson.

I know we got a freekick after a passback about ten years ago. Jess took the freekick from about 4 yards out and netted. But I cannae mind who the keeper was. Pretty sure it was post-Goram and pre-Klos. Dibble? When was he there? What about Charbonnier?

Go on, Tommy. Prove me wrong

Hehe, know exactly what you mean. Gin & Redbull is fantastic. But it's the effect it has on me that I drink it for, not the taste!
-
Was there a game? Voddie's never really been my friend. Always seem to get excessively hungover the day after a night on the voddies. Now, Gin & RedBull? That stuff is fan-fuckin-tastic! If they made amphetamines in liquid format, this would be it! Serious peeling-off-the-walls material! And it tastes like asprin, so your body feels like it's already getting the hangover cure before the hangover kicks in, hehe.

We'll need to check with the manny who runs the server to see if he can adjust the time.
-
I ken. But is it too much to ask just ONE of our strikers to be scoring regularly?
-
Multiple windows?

Smith is arguably the player at Pittodrie with the most proven talent. If he can stay away from the treatment table, he's got to be worth a new contract ... especially when he comes out with statements like this: This last bit wins it for me.
-
Well, if you're going to carry on with the quoting game ... So 31 games to get fit is a "short space of time", is it?
-
Right, now you're boring me with taking quotes of mine out of context. My point is, Wright has been with us since August. He has scored one goal against East Fife and was single-handedly at fault for our loss to Dundee United. He's been on the treatment table for goodness knows how long. That, in my books, is a disappointing return for our 75k investment. What, in your mind, has Wright done at Aberdeen that removes any disappointment in you toward him?
-
Jesus. Do I need to hit my head against a brick wall any more with conversations with you? You really don't grasp the concept of my argument, do you? My entire argument is he has been a very disappointing signing because we've seen so little of him and we are now entering the 31st competitive match of the season. There's a whole different thread on this forum debating the return for our money we're getting from Jamie Smith. I am very disappointed that we've only seen two starts from Wright when we are now into the business end of the season. What does it matter whether I've seen him play or not?

Twice. He came on in the last minute of the 1-1 draw with the huns at Pittodrie, and then royally fucked up by handling the ball in the area when Aberdeen were outplayed by Sandaza. None. Considering there's over 17,000km between me and Pittodrie, I don't really fancy the trip to see a United league game, to be honest! My whole point is that he has almost been forgotten as an Aberdeen player. When he came on against East Fife, I thought "holy fuck, I forgot he was on our books!". Never anywhere did I imply that it was the quality of his play that made him disappointing ... other than that hand-ball incident
-
Nugget So starting 2 games since August is acceptable to you? Injuries, loss of form, whatever .... he was signed under an umbrella of hope in the summer, and he so far has failed to live up to that hype. That, in my book, is disappointing. Maybe you're happy with this. Or perhaps you'd just prefer to go on pointing out spelling errors.

I've sat up at 4am on Sunday mornings enough times this season, watching shitty streaming videos fae some tim sitting with a webcam facing his screen, or listening to some choppy shittey net-radio broadcast, to kind of get a grasp of the idea that Tommy Wright really hasn't shown us what he's really made of. Unless you're stuck in the dark ages (highly possible if you live in Aberdeenshire or Morayshire) then you'll probably have heard of this thing called "the internet". It is a tool that not only lets you watch as much porn as you want, but it also lets you watch every single television and radio broadcast of the Dons that ever occurs ... all from the comfort of your New Zealand home. I've sat, at 5am in the morning, getting shit-faced on rum, beer, wine, sambuka, whatever I can find, trying my best to listen/watch the Dons matches each weekend. Unless the commentators and cameras are watching a completely different game, don't fuckin tell me my point is invalid "because I wasn't there!".

None. Still doesn't distract away from my original point that, especially with all the hype surrounding his arrival at Pittodrie, he's been one of the most disappointing signings we've made in recent years ... probably only eclipsed by Jackie McManamana (doo-dooooo, dee-doo-doo).
-
I've finished off a nice bottle of Pinot Noir (Wild South, Malborough, NZ) by masel over the past hour. Feelin fuckin tastic, and ready for the Killie game in two hours. Still got half a bottle of Coruba that I will be getting stuck into next: ... and of course our latest hoose guests left me a bottle of Opal Nero sambuka, which is whispering my name right now! It is Killie we're playing, so I may have to look out the auld junkie needles to liven things up, hehe.

Wright has been one of the biggest disappointments this season for me. We tried our friggin best to get him to sign for the Dons. The press are making noises about Smith coming back. And rightfully so! If nothing else, the goals he scored against Copenhagen will live long in many Dons fans' memories. But Wright? The ONLY thing I can ever remember him for is that ludicrous handball incident against the Arabs in September. I think Wright is a player who is going to have to do something pretty spectacular to even appear on the Red Army's radar. With Lee Miller due for a suspension period soon, surely this must be his chance to stake a claim as a decent backup striker to Miller and Mackie. Come on, Wrightey, give us something to cheer about before you become someone to jeer about!
