It’s UN peacekeepers we’ll need at this rate.

As long as they’re not Dutch, we should be ok.

You might have switched the view by accident.  

On the homepage, look for the lines at the top of the forum categories, and change it to the lines option like below:

 

I’d never tried the middle one before. No wonder that was annoying

What’s changed from what you saw before? For me, even on my phone it’s exactly the same interface but if there is something to be done, we’ll look into it

She said, which is all about the Harvey Weinstein sexual predator cases. To this day, it’s a great bit of journalism and why we need investigative journalism. excellent film.

Given we’ve now ticked over 12k STs, they should help go a way to help fund these players

Off topic: But the forum admin may wish to know that I was disgracefully denied the ability to post until I uploaded a profile picture. Wouldn't let me go anywhere on the forum until it was done.

Eventually I have relented, but if Miovski or Duk or a potential new signing is trying to access the forum they may not have a profile photo to hand and then what? 

 

HQ heard we had a beeb journo on the prowl, so had beef up security

I see Robson has said we won’t see any this weekend. Making me slightly nervous now. Word has it Stewart is on the verge of signing for the arabs, surely not?!?

Have to say, from what I could see, Ngenwya (sp) impressed, likewise morris. Was a decent finish. Sokler (oddly autocorrect says dollar) had some good finishes regardless of opposition. Interested to see how we fare against stronger opposition. 

3-0 Ramadani and now HT

So latest rumours -  Allegedly 

Close to signing a right sided central defender

Declan John, yes he of Hun fame

Tyler Walker from Coventry City, a forward who can also play on the wing and whose father is none other than Des Walker (Notts Forest)

Make of them what you will 

Saw the Declan John one mentioned on Twitter. Wouldn’t appear to be a bad option? We do actually need to start seeing some more bodies through the door, especially if we want any sort of cohesion by the time the season starts.

The Puma home & away tops we had in 97-98 were among my favourite strips. Just a shame they evoke memories of Roy Aitken and Alex Miller and us being gash (except Eoin Jess of course).

This new home strip looks a lot like the Nike strip of 2010/11.

I’ll agree on those particular puma ones, but others were pretty poor in quality. That Nike one was my least favourite one. The ones before were some of my favourite dons kits. The away adidas one after this one I think it was was epic. Love the two new tops, gold is a departure but I like it.

Hearts confirm they will continue with 650 away allocation. 
 

No problem with this as they are putting own fans first but going to make getting a ticket fun. Wonder if Burrows will follow through on his idea of giving them a similar allocation at Pittodrie. 

Can’t help but think there should be minimum requirements for each team. It’s a shite number and will make away atmospheres pathetic if they keep letting clubs get away with this.

Did my link not work? Posted direct from the phone. I like the story behind it, good concept. awesome couple of strips again this season.

Was surprised they made it all ticket, but ah well. Hopefully the dons put on a show 

It is very quiet on the transfer rumour front. There was another player (from Burton) that we were linked with over the weekend, but not seen much else on that front. Think Duk and Rama are back in ABZ this week.

Peanut butter falcon, excellent watch.

Been a while I’ve been this gutted about a player leaving tbh, even though I know it’s for the best.

Gutted he left the way he has tbh. But I suppose if he’d still been decent he’d have been our no.1. Last season was sad to see but it was great seeing him with the celebrations towards the back end. Thanks for the years of service, superb keeper at his prime. Thoroughly loved having him at the club. Whatever he chooses to do, wish him all the best.

Should scott Wright be sold, dons have a percentage of skin in the game accordingly to scott burns. Not that I think he’s going to Saudi

Did he mention Ramadani? And is Burrows playing LB?

I did wonder if someone would ask that, but I’m here to set them up

Burrows has confirmed both he and Duk will be returning to training shortly after extended rest periods over the international break

I've cancelled it.

I'm sure the international one is worth it for the games, but £80 for a few interviews and a commentary team unaware that people are listening to audio only is £80 I could be putting towards the Donstalk Europa League charter train.

Now you’re talking!

Just from reading the thread.

 

Just with your connections I got a bit excited damn you and TLG! At that price it would be a no brainer.

It’s come on so far since the first few years. I did enjoy the original premium tv or whatever it was called. You could watch any other team as long as they had the same provider. Still, just beyond justification at the mo. I’ve liked doing my bit, as you say OD, it’s our ST. Just have to make sure I can get folk to offset it with merch purchases
