Here's me hunting for the name of the Man Utd kid we signed for about three weeks about ten years ago. So I browse to soccerbase.com, hit the "Aberdeen squad list" link, and see Lee Bullen at the top of the list.

 

Did we sign him? Or can I rest my weary head and simply put this one down to an administrative error on Soccerbase's behalf?

We never signed Bullen.

 

The Man Utd player was Alex Notman. Didn't do anything for us, supposedly his attitude was dreadful. His career was finished a couple of years ago after a freak injury while in a wall defending a free kick.

Calm down, I think he's just signed for Falkirk or something. He hasn't joined us. Not good to have around the place, apparently.

Notman was here on loan as BB states.

It was during the time of Hegarty's temporary charge.

Think from memory he only played a handful of minutes for us

Alex Notman. That's the bugger!! Still, the link at the top definitely shows LEE BULLEN signed for ABERDEEN on 14/5/08. Bit of a worry.

 

Maybe we're also set to move to our new stadium. Much to the delight of many stuck-in-the-muds, the new stadium will remain within the vicinity of Pittodrie, just to the east ... where the driving range currently is. To this end, the new ground will be named East End Park. And then another train station will be opened in Aberdeen ... this time, up in Bucksburn. Thus, Aberdeen fans will have a choice of two train stations to go to, but neither will be situated anywhere near the new football ground. And offshore rigging company Dietsman Engineering will be our new sponsors next year. The deal will be so huge, that the Dons will be taking on part of the sponsor name, thus becoming Dietsman Aberdeen Football Club (or DAFC for short). And because our new stadium will be wrecking part of the north-east's golfing facilities, the club have decided it'd be fitting to give itself the nickname of "The Pars", in honour of Aberdeen's golfing community.
