  1. Jess, we asked 100AkS to provide evidence of this, but where has it been proven the council offered up land by the beach? Obviously I wouldn't accept a statement about it from the idiots on the NTK website as they are the purveyors of fake news.
  2. Dhims making Hamilton look very amateur. 3-0 up already and could easily be more. Think Hamilton have spent about 3 mins in the Celtic half.
  3. That was hilarious reading They really do love a statement and I'd love to see them March on hampden. Fucking deluding halfwits.
  4. That's awesome! Should make for a cracking day! Very jealous of folk who're going
  5. They're on the ropes now. This is truly desperate and embarrassing http://www.nokingsfordstadium.org.uk/2017/09/07/open-letter-to-mr-george-yule-executive-vice-chairman-of-aberdeen-football-club/
  6. Tlg. Check the fezbook https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1611089252267910&id=269862433057272&comment_id=1611151778928324&notif_t=feed_comment&notif_id=1504803660986277&ref=m_notif
  7. Hey, was never knocking their personalized delivery service
  8. Had a few dealings with them, and much like the rest of the club, it seems to be run far better than it was in the past. Been particularly helpful of late. Keep it up And the stuff available has markedly improved too.
  9. oh I dunno.
  10. People who get on busses and stand by the exit, blocking it for everyone else. Then having the audacity to get annoyed at being whacked.
  11. If we want to deal with water, we should just build it out at sea
  12. Should have realised
  13. It's a decent effort, Jess, something that we looked at a while ago, I think Tom alluded to it in one of his posts. Ignoring scale for the time being, the issue here being that we'd still have to pay to play elsewhere due to grass growth, not sure the club could afford suffer the loss of income and increased outgoings. It's one of the benefits of building elsewhere as they'd still have an income. Tottenham is a prime example of what you've shown. I'd guess we'd probably close to toms capacity as you've currently shown it, as we'd probably want more commercial space. Nice stadium though.
  14. Isn't that what women say, when it really ISNT fine?
  15. See, I think that this was a very easy group, but Strachan fucked it from day one. On paper, we could have qualified, in reality? The idiocy that surrounds the sfa from top to bottom is why we won't. Happily eat my words though
  16. Thanks, Tom. Don't think they seem unreasonable, in fact I'm surprised they're that lenient. All very logical though, unlike some numbskull fans on twitter. Shouldn't be difficult for the club / transport companies to adhere to.
  17. New deal signed, keeps him at the club until summer 2019
  18. http://www.afc.co.uk/news/10047.php Well done to all those involved
  19. ah right, that would explain it. Hadn't seen the site before.

  21. Aye, massive shame. I guess they want it full, but not too full where we'd overtake them in noise I see the referee for Saturday is none other...than Craig Thomson...
  22. We / well WGS fucked it up at the start of the campaign. Idiocy and loyalty to unworthy players will be his downfall. 6/6 is not unattainable but highly unlikely. Slovakia are a decent outfit and can punish us. Here's hoping they play as Nips heart desires We'll get close and fail, it's the Scotland way and then we'll persist with WGS to continue the cycle of failure.
  23. Tried firstrow?
  24. Once I have time, i'll definitely look at this. I can provide a section
  25. It wasn't Carhandles illustration I was particularly having a dig at, it was the furore surrounding it and his messages, along with others within that thread and elsewhere where the profession has been called into question. This is what pissed me off. It feels like every time someone provides a reasonable response (such as Tom's), someone, with no knowledge of how a building is designed or can be constructed, knows better (this isn't aimed at you or Rocket). Then the goal posts get moved and the requests get higher. The least planning onerous option is probably not far from what Tom has provided. However, if we had a vast sum of money, i'd say you buy those houses, re-route the services, build a new road elsewhere to retain the access and build the main stand out. The issue with the main stand is that we're trying to get it to do a number of things, provide commercial space as well as the much needed facilities that the club require. They've made no secret that there isn't sufficient space for them to operate (given the scale of activities these days). Whether they needed to be there or adjacent to the stadium is another question, however it certainly makes more sense to have it all within the same building. This then relies on the people willing to sell and the council allowing us to re-route Pittodrie street. There's then the fun with co-coordinating the re-routing with all the utility companies. Achievable, but an unknown risk and very expensive. Building over a road isn't impossible, but there'd be security risks with allowing it to be open to the public. So i'd reckon we'd have to build another road to compensate. To either extend the stand back or build over, we'd need to buy those properties and then some i'd guess. Then there's the added issue of parking that we'd lose because of extending back, we'd likely have to dig down which will add masses amount to the build. Rocket, I was by no means saying I was fully behind Milne. SM fucked up by not buying the land behind the South Stand, I doubt we'll ever know if it's down to motive or lack of cash. I'd like to think it was the latter. Tom, once I'm in NZ, and if this hasn't been resolved, I'll have a go at it
