I assume he's getting a large booing if he comes on at Pittodrie? None of the "I'll support him in a Dons top" pish. This is a fucking rank move.

I hope he doesn’t. It’s a really bizarre signing if there’s no buy option, but the lad is just coming to play football and we all want the dons to succeed. As mentioned, really poor optics, would love an explanation if there’s no buy option. Now, if we sign welsh for 6 months with no buy option then we’ve lost the plot.

perhaps better options are available when we have a manager, or in the summer, but uncomfortable times at present.

Cameron had the chance to come here and “just play football” last year but chose to take the Hun coin instead. We should not be helping him get game time now that decision has bitten him in the arse.

I'm not happy about this but I'll never advocate booing an Aberdeen player, even if he is on loan from them.  Ironically, it's just downright hunnish.

Just as well he’s not a dons player

You're not really booing the player himself though, it's a public display of anger at the decision to get one of their players ready for first team football. There isn't another way that will satisfactorily show the disgust. A banner doesn't cut it. It needs to be heard, and discussed on the radio/telly. It's just a very obvious protest, and unfortunately for the young laddie, he'll just have to be on the receiving end of it. He did choose the Huns after fucking off the club that raised him. He's basically Connor Barron. The club needs to be held to account, and it needs to be public. I never boo the team at half-time or full-time, or if they pass the ball backwards for the ninetieth time. I'll happily boo this lad, because it's a protest that the club needs to hear, and I'm comfortable that it's not remotely Hunnish to do so in those circumstances. 

The tone deafness is unbelievable. The club strategy was to be working towards regularly getting into Europe with a view to pushing the scum all the way. I could almost understand the acceptance that came with the signings of Scales and Christie. We were way off the Tims in terms of budget and points, regularly, with the knowledge that they could just up their spending by a factor of ten if they felt threatened. The Huns are not at that same level though, not even close. They're a good team, with a well salaried first eleven, but beyond that there isn't much to be feared. It seems bizarre that we'd choose to try to close the gap by improving their squad, even in the short term. Of course, we know we're in a bad place and it's only really about optics, but those are important too. It also questions the ability of our recruitment team. Is this really the best they can come up with? An unavailable player? Who plays in a role, and in a way, that we're not short in? Or have we made the catastrophic decision that we have to wait for the new manager before signing anyone, therefore being behind in another window? Has Cormack still not learned from the Hornby, Hendry, Kamberi debacle?

I used to boo David Winnie when he was warming up

Cameron is just a big no from me. He does not want to be here despite what he says now after his massive failure. He has proven his accepted standards already and they are not good enough for us. Whoever sanctioned this at AFC does not have a clue about the majority of their fanbase or more likely give a toss. They should be hounded out of town as they are obviously a huge part of the disease that is eating our club.
