  1. Neither have i, jesus we have sold 10,000. That is more than i thought we would!!!! Better get my ticket soon
  2. Thing is every time he comes off the bench he is playing wide for the first team. I think this is hindering his career to be honest playing him out of position as although he has the skill he's pretty poor on the wing. I've watched this Kid twice totally help the dons U19's in the youth cup - one was against Celtic's lot who murdered us but with Maguire in the team we taken them to extra time to be cheated by the ref!!!! Actually watched him destroy Cowdenbeath in the youth cup as well as last sunday's performance. If we don't get in the top 6 I would like to give Maguire a run upfront to see what he can do against SPL defences.
  3. mmm tough one to be honest, Irvine wasn't great but i don't think Diamond is that good either plus i think the standard of football is not the same since the 90's even though we are doing better in Europe. Diamond dives in to much for me and is still raw, still has the making of being a good player.
  4. I don't think our set up of youth development is as bad as made out, some pretty good players coming through the ranks. The thing i don't like is that we are dropping players to play Maguire, Walker and Aluko which would have played if they wasn't in the team. I'll give you an example, watched McRobbie who looks a great prospect at 16 but on sunday he started upfront went wide because we stuck Aluko upfront with Ross and then was subbed at Half time, stick with the lads that would play in the league, if we go out then fair enough but at least these kids get experience. To be fair to the lad he didn't really see much of the ball but he is a great prospect. I think the performance of Maguire shows the lad has talent but at first team level he is normally on the wing which he cannot play - still unbelieveable that the kid played 53 mins and then another 75 mins the next day. Maguire looks great at U19's level but needs to put on a bit of weight to become a first team player and up his performance.
  5. Aye was a good night although was a wee bit ropey at Ibrox
  6. was going to buy the EE until i had a quick look at the back 3 pages!!!! Cringeworthy to say the least!!!!
  7. mmm didn't think he was that bad to be honest. Was surprised he gave two free-kicks for us as i thought Miller dived!!!
  8. Yip it was a good game to watch although Aberdeen was terrible if truth be told and if it wasn't for Maguire then we would have been out. I know a lot of people give him abuse in the first team but i feel the kid has talent to become a great player for us. It was an amazing performance from maguire considering he played 53 mins the day before. Don't think the youth cup final is at Hampden any more but just goes with who is the home team. Had one of the funniest moments on football with the overweight Livingston physio!!!! She could hardly walk never mind run and it must have taken over 2 minutes to treat a player at the other side of the park while the most of the support cheered when she made it to the player- really funny!!!! Still think its unfair for Aluko and Walker to play in our U19's team and the same could be said for Maguire. It should be the kids that play week in week out.
  9. Obviously most of you do not look at afc-chat these days but one of those lads have set up an account CRY Charity (Cardiac Risk in the Young) which was what the family plaque was removed wishes - sadly its under the banner of afc-chat rather than aberdeen but if anyone wants to donate they just go to http://www.justgiving.com/afcchatdonations Also Cameron's mum and dad posted this on jambo's kickback : Been on AFC Chat, a lot of talk about if the plaque was knocked off by accident. Tried to put a post on their site but couldn't register. A director from Aberdeen has been in touch asking for our seat nos., as they are doing an investigation, we have given them the details. I'll say this much they are in the Gorgie stand. The plaque was on the front of the seat underneath the name sticker put there by the club to show the season book holder's name. Numerous seats next to, in front of and behind our seats had these name stickers ripped off, some bits were left on the seats. The plaque was fixed to a larger backing as the seat is bevelled and this allowed the plaque to sit straight. It was fixed extremely firmly and also had black sealant round it. Many of our friends and family have sat in the seat, got up and cheered and it has never moved. In fact the first match we attended after it had been put on we prodded it and pulled it to test it. It was going nowwhere. We do not wish to blacken the name of Aberdeen or its fans, but someone purposefully removed it (I'd say using some sort of implement) and this is not acceptable. All we want is for the person to be utterly ashamed of their actions and to know the upset this has caused. We are still only starting to realise what happened to our son without having to deal with this. Out of this though has come some good, this sort of tragedy is only too common and more needs to be done to bring it to light. For example Phil O'Donnell, Terry Yorath's son. the guy from Cameroon and a player from Seville recently along with the thousands of normal everyday youngsters. Thanks to all Heart's and Aberdeen fans for your donations and comments. Cameron's mum and dad
