  1. Fucking yasss min! How long before t-Rex arms gets mentioned???
  2. Just sing the version I've been singing in my head each time I here it (I actually thought it might have been the Italians singing last night). "It's going to Rome, It's going to Rome..." Was that not because of Busquet's controlling the game, the Spanish 2 touch slow build, and Dani Olmo causing them all kinds of problems at the back? England don't have a player of the quality of Busquets, they try to attack at speed, and they'd need one of their front 3 to be on absolute top form to replicate the impact of Olmo. If the guffies can get past the Danes, I can't see the Italians having much difficulty in beating them. Have to laugh at how much Schmeichel has wound them up too. "Has it ever come home?"?
  3. ? Fuck knows what I was doing last week. Clearly not reading donstalk, anyway.
  4. See Tommy Johnson is being linked as our new head of recruitment. Left the same role at Blackpool.
  5. Guffies might be playing the semi and final at Wembley but the trophy will be heading to the same place they're playing their quarter-final.
  6. Seen an advert on Instagram (sports direct funnily enough) for their new home kit. Orange coloured sponsor, badge and manufacturer logo.
  7. 1:1 coaching in pre-season at this rate.
  8. Bocelli’s Nessun Dorma, brought back memories of Italia ā€˜90 and consequently made me greet a wee bit. Good first game of the tournament brought a bit of enthusiasm and the Italians looked good.
  9. If true, and surely he’d have signed by now if not, got to assume a ā€œbiggerā€ club has offered him more than we have. Shame as pretty sure he’s an Aberdeen fan? Any English clubs with only 3 stands and new Russian owners?
  10. Isn't he only 19? Hardly at an age where we can be passing judgements on his future ability.
  11. Maybe? Or they just know more people who take these decisions. I searched "asylum" on here and got this. If I remember there was nothing more we could do as they had to go to France, then all of a sudden he signed for the huns a few weeks later.
  12. Remember when we had that youth player who was an asylum seeker that we had to release because his families case was dismissed (as they had settled for a month or two in France before coming to the UK) and we couldn't secure a work permit for him? Then a month or so later the old huns signed him and got him a work permit. It's just another symptom in the glasgow 2 disease that infects Scottish football.
  13. Fair enough, seems to have a decent record albeit Dutch second division. Looks like a big lad and surprisingly white.
  14. Where's this coming from? Looks to be available on a free, but English Championship clubs were supposed to be trying to sign him in January. See NAC also have Uwe Rosler's son on their books too
  15. And here we have the secondary reason for his selection. Get him in the shop window for the huns.
  16. If I was you min, I'd be more upset by the fact that she has a photo of her dogs on her twitter wearing hun scarfs.
  17. Didn't we offer him a contract a few pages ago?
  18. Sheerin of to Falkirk.
  19. Aye, there was the Korean player that he commented about chinky's, slanty eyes and eating dogs. "having a go on" the female agent's (possibly) fake tits. And slagging the overweight Jewish football agents penchant for money and overall greed. It was with a colleague or colleagues on work mobiles, not private conversations? Not entirely sure that's "banter" either as none of the people being discussed were involved in the "banter". To me it would suggest an endemic workplace culture, and his attitude seems to be that he can say and do anything.
  20. I don't doubt he is. I'd say it's impossible to be worth about £300 million, by being a nice guy. More the family image he likes to portray for his football club, doesn't really fit with MacKay's racist, misogynistic public persona.
  21. Campbell should definitely be there. Maybe a case for Calvin Ramsay and Jack MacKenzie. Was surprised at the inclusion of 6 huns until I saw the opposition. Daniel MacKay is apparently a hibs player now.
  22. Bid of an odd choice by Roy MacGregor.
  23. Noel Whelan was part Colombian ?.
  24. Manager: Calum Davidson Transfer budget: What’s that? Competitions entered as a manger: 3 Competitions won: 2 v Manager: Step-hen Gerard Transfer budget: circa Ā£100 million Competitions entered as manager: 12 Competitions won: One.
  25. ā€œI think they are holding out for a massive amount for him and I don’t think it’s going to happen.ā€ Ferguson's agent obviously has a high opinion of his ability. That, along with; "Aberdeen are standing in the way of a ā€œgentleman’s agreementā€ that the player has with the club, that should an opportunity for Ferguson to move to the Premier League arise, they would allow him to leave." Why didn't McMurdo negotiate that into the contract then? And ā€œI have said to them that I’ve been in this business a long time and I have never known a buying club to ask a selling club for a price only for the selling club to say: ā€˜No, make us an offer’." Why didn't McMurdo also negotiate minimum release fee also? I'd question how he's been in the business a long time, with that level of contractual naivety and negotiate nous... If I was Ferguson I'd be looking for a new agent.
