Easy! There any quotes in the original article?

Managed to avoid finding out who had got knocked out. Watched it this morning and it was high time she left, though I was annoyed Natasha's team won. Really dislike her, she has McGeady face. Someone I know is going for an apprentice interview this afternoon for the next series. Aberdeen fan

The Scotland captain Darren Ferguson has been left out of Manchester United's tour of the U.S.A. -raising fears he could be unavailable for Euro 2012 qualifying. (Daily Star) Who knew he was still playing! I read that Fletcher has been left at Carrington for tests. Quite concerning really, how long has he been out for

That was a Joy to read... In all honesty, we know we need a few players still but can't say Im reading too much into anything yet. We lost to vv dovo under JC and went to have a decent season.

Wise move by the club. I really like him as a player and he certainly knows where the net is when he's playing.

sounds like decent opposition, but good to see mackie scoring.

Couldn't have put it better myself.

Couldn't agree more

Not overly concerned by this, fair enough. None ofus can say he ever burnt his bridges whilst he was at der hun. As long as he gives it his all whilst he's here, thats all I care about. I'm surprised it wasn't Mawene though.

Some bizarre photos going on there yesterday! Seems like there's a good spirit amongst the team though (as far as you can tell from the photos obviously). http://www.afc.co.uk/articles/20110705/day-three-in-holland-_2212158_2387083 Anyone making any of the trips across for the games?

realistically, would we disagree with him though? I'd argue, consi, mccardle, mackie and Paton?

Can't say in happy about reading this as it seems to me like getting your excuses in early, can't do much for player confidence? I'm not going to read too much into this though.

So is it just me or did you just agree with jutes initial point

Seriously? I mean what the fuck! I could understand if it was the likes of Motherwell, but St. Midden?!?

From the P&J: Hopefully this will give some new impetus at board level, lord knows it was getting stale.

My thoughts exactly, though I didn't see much of Gunning last year. I'm starting to feel ever so slightly excited about the upcoming season.

I actually went out in august because we stopped over after being in Japan. We went went out on jumeira beach and went swimming. Providing you've got plenty of Sun screen and drink water you should be ok. Though you will spend most of your time going from shaded area to shaded area mini. It was fucking hot !

Chris Clark hopes his return to Aberdeen can help the club enjoy the kind of success they had during his first spell at Pittodrie. Clark has re-joined his hometown club on a free transfer from Plymouth. "I've supported the club since a young age and it was always the first result I looked for," Clark told BBC Scotland. "It was difficult to see the team in the lower half (of the table) and it'll be nice to be in the challenge of pushing for that top six." When the midfielder, now 30, left the Dons they were in Europe and regularly finishing in the Scottish Premier League's top six. However, Aberdeen have finished the last two seasons in the bottom half of the division. Continue reading the main story It's just important that we go about things the right way and just enjoy our football and make sure that Aberdeen are one of the stronger sides again Chris Clark "It's good to be back," said Clark. "A lot's changed since I was last here so I'm looking forward to working with the new management and new players. "You can't always be at that level but that's something that everyone's got to aim for and it's a challenge for everyone to get back to that level. "Craig Brown and Archie Knox have got a wealth of experience and when they came in, they gave the place a huge lift. "There's a lot of good young players in this squad, I've heard a lot about them. It's going to be really good working with everyone." During his time with Plymouth, the Pilgrims went into administration and Clark was struck at how the local community rallied down to support the club. Knox and Brown have brought Clark back to Aberdeen "I wish them all the best," he said. "It was a mixed time, you learn so much from it and you can only come out of those situations stronger. "It was hard for everyone and it's not just the players or the coaching staff, it goes right down to everyone working in offices, it goes down to people that work on matchdays. "The team were struggling as well but the support that the fans showed was really touching; it really humbled the players. It was fantastic, they clapped us off win, lose or draw. "They realised what everyone was going through at the club and they actually took upon themselves to do certain things to raise money for the club." Clark turned down the chance to join Kilmarnock before accepting Aberdeen's offer and is hoping his experience can help the club improve upon last season's ninth-place finish. "It was a decision for myself and for the family," added Clark. "It's the right decision at the end of the day. "I was out of contract, I had had a couple of offers. It was really pleasing when Aberdeen made the call. I was delighted to sign again. "It's well publicised how the Scottish game has fallen over the years. Attendances are down, a lot of teams' budgets are low. Everyone seems to be in the same boat. "It's just important that we go about things the right way and just enjoy our football and make sure that Aberdeen are one of the stronger sides again."

plenty of stuff to do at the jumeira beach resort like jet skiing and wind surfing. I wanted to go dune surfing as well but we ran out of time. The water park is supposed to be pretty good and I'm sure there is a restaurant in a submarine as well.

I loved him and touzani. I was genuinely disappointed when they weren't offered better contracts, touzani especially as I thought at the time of his departure he was playing some great football. Still with de visscher, we had a winger that knew how to play football. So any news on who they were?

So oldfield and badongo?

Really? Was it worth a watch? By all accounts, haye got owned.
