I'm fairly confident in my prediction that ten years from now we'll still be playing at a largely unaltered Pittodrie.

How many years ago now was it that Milne first havered about the Aberdeen having to play European games elsewhere? Oh me.

I mind being at an AGM during the Skovdahl years and Milne told us that we need to move out of Pittodrie because the main stand was falling to bits. 
 

Incidentally the reason I remember it being during the Skovdahl years was because Willie Miller stood up at the same AGM and demanded to know why the players were still using the tired training facilities at Balgownie that he used in the 80s. Before Milne got a chance to answer Ebbe piped in with “Yeah but there’s new grass there now!” to much amusement.

I mind the rumour that gallons of concrete were secretly being poured into the foundations of the South stand every year to keep it from sinking into the ground.

What a farce. Derisory sums of money.

The club says that talks with the council about the new stadium are taking "longer than expected".

Colour me surprised. The club cannot buy good PR at the moment (less Marshall).
