  1. Well, can't say I know much aboit him but he certainly sounds like what we need. Will be interesting to see where he ends up on the pitch but the versatility gives us options. Logan came from top end of the championship, but he was their 3Rd choice, but again, that's neither here nor there. Clearly not the first target but he knew what we needed. Really good summer, on paper, probably the best we've had in many a year. Well done AFC
  2. Because they've been against teams we should beat and aren't in the top half (possibly harsh on county). Let's see how we do against a traditional top six team before getting too excited. We needed a centre half. Our defence is shite. It's just lucky that we've scored more goals than conceded.
  3. That's what their official site has said.
  4. If that's true, and we broke it, fucking yassss. Although, any money for him is a win imo.
  5. Well negotiated St. Mirren
  6. Rico, the corners could be partially filled in, although we need to provide suitable access for the emergency services. I think the only tweak I would consider would be to move the plant compound to the corner of the RDS / SS (removing the mound) and enable that corner to be filled in, albeit maintaining a route through on to the pitch for the emergency services. That being said, this would only be to the benefit of a few seat which isn't realistically going to make much difference. It might also be a struggle to unify the changes in heights between the main stand / merkie without providing terrible sight lines. I'm guessing, but if we did do the wave form stand, depending on where it started, the amount of structure required to provide little benefit would probably be the reason why you wouldn't do it. Seat kills would be quite drastic. Tom, as a side note, are the accessible seats pitch side or at higher level? If the former, I'd presume we'd lose a few more seats as it's generally preferred to have a mixture of the two options available. Again, great work Tom
  7. Look forward to reading about it tomorrow
  8. Well, we usually sign one crocked footballer a season, medics will be bored otherwise...
  9. Sounds like HIVs McGinn is off to forest. Lots of chatter about it down here
  10. There have been some mental transfers this summer. I mean, £50m for Walker, i have no idea how he's worth that amount of money.
  11. End of their time with us then?
  12. Jackson Irvine has joined Hull City for an undisclosed fee. I know tlg always wanted us to sign him
  13. Started watching a show called "the Deuce" - from the same director of the Wire. Set in the 1970's NYC and seems to be all about porn / pimps / hookers etc...Only watched part of the pilot but seemed decent enough. Was too long and needed to get to sleep. will resume watching later! https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2017/aug/28/porn-the-deuce-review-david-simon-70s-new-york https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7YMlL8x8GE
  14. Cricfree is usually pretty good, once you get past all the adverts.
  15. She strikes me as a person who is completely oblivious to reality, like most tories in fact. I can't see how she can think her tenure has been anything but a half arsed job and failed to achieve her personal decisive goal of removing Corbyn.
  16. Good work Tom Saw this on the beeb this morning Kingswells group asked to withdraw Aberdeen FC stadium objection - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-41082477
  17. According to some on twitter, we are due just over £100k after Reading agreed to sign Aluko for £7.5m from Fulham. Mental considering he was free last season.
  18. Hate when our players are caught diving Seriously though, glad he's alright. Daft bastard for doing it.
  19. The State on Channel 4. Was a four part series about Syria / ISIS. Excellent viewing imo, hard to feel sorry for most of the characters.
  20. Hibs dear with Dundee, not the worst result in the world for us Hopefully county can beat the hunco
  21. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DIEore1WAAAdZCj.jpg:large What in the actual fuck ?!?
  22. https://twitter.com/Sebastien_MLD/status/900820728618110977 You'd be raging if a keeper did that to you
