  1. poor highlights too.

    Only got to listen to the game but im sure there were numerous chances for both teams in both halve.

    Seem to recall the only action from the first half were the yellow cards.

     

    Must be a good commentator you were listening to as that first half was dire.

  2. Having had a brief flick through the online report it doesn't exactly look rosey.  We may have "only" made a £300k operating loss but this was the worst in five years and contributed to a total loss of £1.6M.  The debt has risen to over £10M and income this year will be further decreased.  That seems like a stinking pile of shite to me and has put us back to where we were before the bumper UEFA Cup run season.  Perhaps someone can tell me how much the management change cost us, but it seems to me that even taking that into account last season saw us make a significant loss.  I imagine the agm will either be the usual cake walk for the board or descend into bickering about JC/MMc but surely questions have to be asked at how we are ever going to be in a position to pay back the £11M in 18months time that we owe the bank, and why we are still haemorrhaging money left right and centre

     

    The old management team were paid of for £482,000.

     

    Not sure if this also includes money paid to Motherwell for MM.

  3. @tsr - He makes a valid point, it's just a football match, there's no need for fans to be kicking lumps out of each other.  When you hear of a number of guys kicking into some guy on the deck it's a surprise you don't hear of more people dying or ending up in wheelchairs.

     

    I'm not arguing with your first point, I just think his valid point is overshadowed by whinging like a woman about it. Incidents like this are very rare at Aberdeen games to be feeling worried about it (assuming you were outwith the circle of people it concerned I mean).

  4. See the incident at the top of London Road was that the lad who was slumped up against the black railings?  I went to ask if he was alright and this copper told me to go away there was nothing to see.  I said there`s no need for that I was just checking on the welfare of a fellow fan.  Maybe because I don`t wear my colours to games anymore he thought I was a normal member of the public being nosey I don`t know.  Didn`t make a big deal out of it from that point in case he arrested me or something stupid like that so walked off.

     

    I`ve always been scared of fellow "supporters" with their acts of thuggery like the above and never feel safe at a tussle. As for the train palava now I know I`m justified in my decision to keep myself to myself when it comes to going to the match.

     

    Many times I`ve thought about never attending another encounter and these sad times really get to me because I feel as though folk are spoiling my experience as I`m not there to help those special people who share the same love for a club whose impact on my exsistence can`t ever be questioned.  I wish people would just grow up and get a life.  It makes me ashamed to be a part of the human race.

     

    Sorry for the rant guys I`m extremely upset because the sport should never be about things like this.

     

    Crikey, you'd never have lasted in the 80's, grow a pair  :o

  5. From a playing perspective its worrying that the manager has had practically no resources to sign players and that was when budgeting for a operating loss of £600,000.

     

    Its difficult to see how funds will ever be made available in the future and therefore the improvement of the team relies solely on miracle free transfers and youngsters.

     

    We really need a good Scottish Cup run  :P
