Didn't realise Matty Lockwood was being allowed out on loan as well, better option than Maybury (but at left back). Although it's maybe not a priority position and he must be getting on a bit now.

If I remember right, I went on the tour of the factory, symbols like the Toucan were used to signify where a beer was from (i.e. going to) and also gave an indication as to how strong it was, back in the 1800's. Although it was 5 years or more ago and the missus stood sighing with her arms crossed the whole way round, so I may be making this up based on something I half read.

Here you go! http://www.thewineblokes.com/uk-wine-shop/guinness-foreign-extra-stout-24x-330ml-bottles-44341/

Isn't it Export or Foreign Extra or something thats 7.5%, I remember buying a couple bottles when I was over in Ireland a few years ago. Something to do with it continuing to ferment while it was on boats to Africa etc years ago and so it got stronger the further it travelled. Tastes more "stouty" (stronger coffee and fag butts taste, as the wife describes it). Not seen it over here, I don't think, but thats maybe because I've never looked for it. That's maybe why MBT described it as imported?

It's quite obvious Zander doesn't like McGhee and this injury is a convenient excuse to keep him free from injury till January, when he can sign for Celtic for £2 million (which will actully be 50p and threee bottles of bubble bath, with the rest based on appearances). Personally I blame the fat orange buffon and Willie's failed chip shop business. Just thought better put a smilie

My main gripe with the Crabbie's was it's either too expensive or not strong enough. Lot of money for something that's going to take you a fair few of to get pissed, and no matter what argument anyone comes up with about sensible drinking, getting pissed is the only reason your going to drinking something that tastes just like non-alcoholic ginger beer.

That's a car, VAG group I'd say. Is this holiday/travelling been planned so you can take pictures of as many things as possible with rude looking names? If so is it being funded by sending the resulting pictures into the various ladz magz?

Maybe he can show them his wage slip, just to clarify that he doesn't earn £800 trillion p/h (or whatever the official* figure is up too nowadays). Also good that he has cleared up the "increase of £1million a year on the playing budget since I arrived" quote that gets bandied about (quite often in a comparison to other SPL clubs sense). I'm sure that may have been mentioned given it is quite obvious (if you are aware of unofficial Aberdeen fan sites) where the sources for that question and at least the previous two have come from. *AFCHAT "reliable" source figure.

Well, I'm not going to be yellow (finned) and change my tuna. Miller should snub the call up, forcing Burley to cast his net wider.

I'm sure the SFA will have organised some sort of sports therapist to devise some sort of stretching plan and exercises they can do in confined spaces but I can't see how that would ever make up for 2+ days training or complete rest for each leg of the journey. Stupid pointless trip made even more so for the likes of Miller and Wallace who weren't drafted in on merit merely because Burley's, in some cases second choice, picks have feigned injury. Injury only feigned for the very reasons I've posted previously. But these guys will feel under pressure to go knowing that a perceived snub now, will put their future international aspirations in jeopardy, and in that sense it is very similar to Aluko's situation.

The risk of injury is increased due to being relatively immobile for long periods of time, therefore the chance of injury is higher than normal. Jet-lag will affect your fitness because of tiredness, they'll either be too tired to train properly or train with an increased risk of injury. This is why South American and Australasian teams tend to play their friendlies in Europe nowadays and that's taking into account that a lot of these players will be used to flying around the world and their bodies will be more adapted to cope with the stresses it puts on the body.

So, it's a friendly, he flies for 12 - 16 hours therefore there is an increase in injury risk, his fitness also suffers because of jet-lag. He plays, suffers an injury that puts him out for 4 or more games. or He flies back (for 12 - 16 hours therefore there is an increase in injury risk, his fitness also suffers because of jet-lag) without having played, and gets injured in training or in the Hearts game and is out for 4 or more games. Would it then be worthwhile for McGhee to have tried to stop him?

This is the reason he's been called up. The OF and premier/championship clubs won't want their players flying for 12 - 16 hrs. With the risk of being accused of having an "agenda", or not wanting AFC players to receive international caps, McGhee would be making far better use of his time and energy trying to discourage Miller from going to this farce than he did with Aluko and his situation.

I'd usually call Paul Wright for World Cuppy at school, can't remember why exactly. Maybe because my dad and granda took me to games and the other lads didn't get, so more often than not called the obvious ones. I do remember my Dad making some comment about him going to England to get pished when I asked why he had left.

The thing with Kyle is several decent managers have rated him. While he may not have the touch of even a Mackie and he doesn't have the football brain of even a Lee Miller. He is a bruising battering ram of a player who seems to know where the net is and not many defenders would relish playing against him, especially when the high balls start getting pumped into the box. You can bet your life that, whatever McGhee says, he has had the players practising against this type of attack all week in training. Almost a pity Tommys still injured as he could have been quite an effective practise Kyle.

It is a bit of stick a to poke (really only) minjc with, on here. And at the moment theres not a lot else to talk about is there? There were always going to be comparisons and when you consider the nonsense that was written about Claderwood and McGhee's prehumous elevation to Mount Olympus before signing on, it is only fair that a little bit of humiliation should befall the most vociferous of the JMG campaign. Certainly I couldn't give two fucks what Calderwood could or would have done this season, he is no longer part of Aberdeens future. Certainly over on the HAT it's usually part of the collective who brings Calderwood up then within two or three posts is moaning about comparisons. Whereas over here it is usually "us" that bring him up. While it is childish it is amusing and does releive a bit of the tediom of the working day.

I'd struggle to think of a game better than Bayern 2-2 , certainly in terms of atmosphere. Scotland U21's - West Germay U21's was pretty good and certainly deserving of best ever come back.

Why would Jimmy "FAT ORANGE HUN" Calderwood be considered for the Celtic job?? Jesus H Christ you really are terminally stupid.

Stop twisting things you know perfectly well my feelings on Calderwood. Just a shame you can't be objective and have an individual opinion. Slagging off players like Mackie and Foster suited "your" opinions when you had your little teddy bears picnic outside the main stand, now McGhee is backing these same players those opinions of "yours" have surprisingly changed (well I say surprisingly what I mean is predictably).

Any more players you want to exclude from "Jimmy's dross" because with your backtracking and excuses your beginning to type your way out of your arguments as to why JMG.

Maybe I am taking it a bit far

Another member of "Jimmy's dross" being lauded by McGhee? What next? Deek Dung will be Aberdeen's answer to 20 goal a season striker search says Mark McGhee

Nobody is/was delighted at the "slightest blip" from McGhee. Take an objective look at the situation. The excuses for bad results like Sigma and Dundee, are the same as those given for Calderwood's failings. The difference in the situations being the (hopefully justified) optimism shown by those "wanking off to McGhee posters". The reality is those, that AFCHAT propaganda label "wanking off to Jimmy posters", got a cold hard dose of reality a long time ago; and those pedalling the propaganda have still to get theirs. The only facts that matter are that AFC are -£10million and have been losing money on an almost yearly basis for the last 12 - 15 years. Until that changes we could have Alex Jose Arsene Ancelotti-Clough in charge and it wouldn't make the blindest bit of difference. We'd still be floating about between 3rd and 6th, depending on the players we've lost the previous season, hoping against hope for an elusive cup final win. You might say its defeatist it's not it's reality. As for McGhee's improvements I'm fairly indifferent to the matter, while it was probably time to freshen things up, unless we win the league or cup, I will never be convinced that it was worth the financial outlay.

Especially from a defence containing two of "Jimmy's dross", wouldn't you say? * or even three if you include Duff.

Andrew is actually Kris Boyd!!!
