But they have highlighted two possible sites for the stadium so why are you so keen on it not being down the beach?
If you're taking the stance that it's too expensive then I'd argue that it isn't going to make much difference. The council don't need to buy the land, it's theirs and they're not going to sell one off instead of the other to the highest bidder to build houses on.
As for the traffic side of things; I can't remember sitting in a car for any longer than 1/2 an hour after a game at worst. The Kings Links site could easily be accessed from the beach side away from residential areas and there's room on that road to become a dual carriageway.
I say we fight for it to be down the beach and at worst we've got a shiny new stadium out the road.
Why settle for second best?
How's the travel time to Cove from Dusseldorf anyway?
It's not a case of accepting second best. The beach area as a site does fuck all for current capacity and whatever you say parking is a nightmare on a match day. If the new stadium magically puts 5000 on the gate each week then it'll only be worse.
Cove is also just as likely to be more accessible for other parts of the city, what difference does it make going to Cove than Linksfield for these kids you expect to travel there on their own? Are you expecting all the street urchins to be walking there with kit on their back for using the facilities?
Mum drives them most places and of course Kincorth and Cove does have kids living there you know
In a city that currently worships the the car, Cove is no problem at all.
Get it built and at the same time rewrite the constitution of the club, stating that debt is not allowed.
Vive la change.

never seen the attraction of english fitba - i know guys who sit up at pittodrie bar during games though cos they've got their bookies line and money for a few pints rather than spend it at pittodrie - I have no problem with that. Football is way too expensive.
I'm a feyenoord clubcard holder and get a season book application every year - how does 260 euro for the most expensive "normal" seat sound?
I nearly got one just for the feyenoord/joden game cos those tickets are hard to get.
Instead I just pay 16 euro on the day - complete rip off to watch decent fitba in one of the best stadiums in europe.
I paid the same to get into cove's ground a year ago.
Anti semite.
I guess that they can afford to due to them being one of the big 3, Casema money, merchandise etc.
Plus Dutch people simply wont pay over the odds.

It seems strange to me that people in Scotland would rather pay for Sky TV to subsidise English football than put that money into Scotiish football.
That would not happen in England.

yet another reason to hate murdoch and the EPL
It is a sad state of affairs when "aberdeen cunts" would rather watch some English football on the tv rather than "their" team live but unfortunately many do, and not just in Aberdeen.
Sorted.

HT in Denmark. Let's hope the second half isn't rotten......
Edit, also in Greece. No tragedy please

FFS get on with it Panananannathanikos
A draw is fine, discounting my nerves.

Hope you all get beat up by police, preyed on by thieves and have flares thrown at you.

Possible involvement from Fund a Don?
They are too busy formulating their plan to take over the world.

To be fair to Miller, Touzani put him off by also attacking the ball and getting in front of him. Thought Miller had a great game.
Collectively the team must have broken a mirror as there wasn't much luck to be had and thon wee Argentinian up from was diving about all night, Hart should have stayed on his feet but the ref was a home banker.
Well played lads.
On a side note who was the BBC one presenter. By fuck he was a strange one.

Before he went mental I had a liking for what Mike Newell was doing daarn saarf. I think he knows the club and the pressures and expectations. I don't think he is persona non grata up here like he is in England and has a lot to prove.
So , yeah, his work for male/female relations aside. Mike Newell.

It's UEFA. Time for a meeting, coffee, a review meeting, lunch, a meeting review and a stewards enquiry first.

I noticed we canny play teams from northern europe in december because of the weather, does this include copenhagen?
Does this include Aberdeen?!
Ask yourself, is Aberdeen inhospitable, freezing and dark?
-
The feed from UEFA.com doesn't seem to be working at all.
Too busy

Jesus but this is a blast from the past.

Reekie,
I was having major performance problems from work (not from home though) but your recent changes mean the site is flying from work again.
Good job fella.

I'm Bilbo,
I used to live in a hole in the ground but I had to leave because I am a 111 years old and the smell of pish on the carpet was intolerable.
Dutch people like cheese, apparently.
