Definitely. Higginbotham being back for them is a massive positive for them, have to say i'm quite nervous about this one. Is Anderson back for this one?

Just lost to Hearts, they now have a 9 point lead over the blue meanies Ian Black conceded a penalty as well, what a joyous sight it is seeing them all so miserable. Typical Huns, resorted to trying to injure Hearts players once they realised they weren't going to win it. Lucky to have ended with 10 men, but weak referring let them get away with it.

As in which day is which game? How haven't they worked this out yet?

Indeed it is. 20K seater stadium, first phase being circa 11K (the west stand - permanent) being built with 3 temporary stands being utilised until promotion is achieved. Fully appreciate that Tom. This design has been tested in the event of an emergency in different scenarios. Quite certain the plans are out in public domain now, or at least they will be in the forthcoming week or so. Will have a scan through that link to see what the club are up against.

Wow, you're in a good mood today

I'll reply in full later, but as I said, we've overcome most of this on a scheme which featured on the main page of the BD on Tuesday. The footprint isn't too dissimilar and only 10m away from residential units (not our design). But again, this would ideally lead to the temporary re-routing of Pittodrie street, depending on what was below it.

Hence why I was saying moving the road would allow the club to breathe / develop further. Currently, I don't think we need more than that.

Emotionally, i'm definitely a stay, but it's a black hole for money at the mo. We missed a trick by not buying the old gas works site behind the SS (shows how long its been since i've been ) which would have been perfect for us. Currently, I can't see Aberdeen providing sufficient infrastructure wherever we end up so remaining is perfectly logical. I do think Tom is right, proper consultation does need to be had to ensure we don't ostracise a majority of the support all in the name of modernisation. It needs to be honest though, if such a thing is possible. Lets face it, we don't need a 20K stadium, 15-18 would be more than sufficient. The biggest problem as far as I can see is Pittodrie Street, whether club would be able to provide another route before closing it off I highly doubt. But importantly, despite being a very costly exercise it would allow the club to breathe a little. Obviously it does depend what is below the ground there...

Of course, I forgot it's long gone hasn't it? As I said, it would be a more expensive option, i'm just saying spatially it could work from comparing (albeit on googlemaps...) areas.

Agreed Tlg, a lot of great goals scored. I always had a lot of time for Crespo and was very sad to see him go. Haven't seen how he's been getting on down here mind

As Tom has already said, we redevelop Pittodrie, we will have to severely reduce the capacity with no chance of any future development. However, with all that being said, there are ways to deal with this, but it would involve closing Pittodrie street temporarily and buying up the land behind the SS. A project I am involved with in South West London deals with the relocation of football stadium, albeit within a new masterplan but incredibly tight site. I'd actually be interested to see what space is available to us and compare what we've done there. But this would mean we would have to play elsewhere for at least a season and cost an absolute fortune.

I see Bernstein is calling for England (and others from UEFA) to boycott the next world cup. I'd genuinely agree with it, FIFA need to be brought into line. Though I can see it just leaving England completely out in the cold, especially if that oxygen thief Blatter is still around.

I thought it was a brilliant film, first half as you said was excellent, but didn't mind the second. Some good comedy moments within it as well.

What. A. Goal. Celtic park looked like it was rocking. Sad to hear someone died falling 3 storeys in a stairwell though

I quite liked the daily record article that was published yesterday and said that that the huns might even struggle to compete with us Hopefully we do go for shinnie and he's sensible enough to give two fingers to those cunts.

Four Lions pt 2? It is that ridiculous and laughable!

Scotland captain Scott Brown has labelled the Republic match "as big a game as I've ever played in" and reckons the qualifier will be "like an Old Firm-type game". (Scottish Sun)

Lol, I never realised that swap one of him for snelders

Having a long hard think about this, and it does show how little of the Dons I got to see when I lived abroad, i'd go for: Eoin Jess, Shearer, Anderson, Heikkinen, Severin (on his day along side the former), Shearer, Booth, Zeroali, Leighton, McNaughton.

Way before my time I'm afraid MBT!

Yes, but I don't for one second believe a country like that is not corrupt. Much like it's neighbours. Complete cunts. The shit they get away with, they should be hung drawn and quartered on a daily basis.

Well let's hope we actually sign him. Christ, imagine that. Going debt free and signing a Left Back. I think i'd need a very long lie down after that.
