DONS AXE BAD BOY LANGFIELD

By Ian Orr

JAMIE LANGFIELD has been slapped on the transfer list by Aberdeen after a series of off-field incidents.

 

The 26-year-old keeper, who was in Scotland's squad in the Faroes, has had the offer of a new contract withdrawn and been warned there is no future for him at Pittodrie.

 

Just last month the Dons rejected a £70,000 bid from Rangers for Langfield, who manager Jimmy Calderwood rated the best in the country after Hearts' Craig Gordon.

 

But the keeper's world turned on its head during his stag party this month in Majorca where Calderwood and assistant Jimmy Nicholl have holiday homes.

 

It is understood Langfield was seen drunk and abusive in Magaluf and his conduct was witnessed by his manager.

 

After two earlier breaches of discipline, Calderwood decided his behaviour was unacceptable and instructed director of football Willie Miller to sell him.

 

 

Langfield has apologised but this has not altered Aberdeen's decision. He will be held up to his team-mates as an example of what will befall them if they step out of line.

 

 

Langfield's fall from grace leaves mentor Calderwood searching for another keeper.

 

 

If he doesn't find a club, Langfield will see out the remaining year on his contract in the reserves with Derek Soutar certain to be first choice.

 

 

Calderwood, who signed Langfield on a free from Dunfermline, didn't comment.

Hey, what about Jussi Jaaskelainen? He's just rejected a new contract at Bolton Wanderers. Surely he'd be better than ANY of the keepers we have now!

That one works well for me!  Unfortunately we probably couldn't meet his wage demand.

Paul Gallacher has apparently been linked with us in some of the Sundays.  Of course there are no quotes or much in the way of evidence to back up their stories but none the less would be a decent signing IMHO

I can think of £6m reasons why this won't happen.

Apparently this is the Bolton are looking for.

He's a free agent next season!

no chance of jussi.

paul gallacher could be a shout.

gossip pages are linking langfield with cardiff and norwich. cardiff are spending a wee bit of money at mo so maybe could get 100k for him which would be good.

shmeichel still main target for me. at moment i think getting the goalkeeper is a priority over any other position.

I still can't believe the huns have any interest in Langfield, and if he really is pissed off at missing out at the Theo role at Ibrox then fuck him, punt for pennies and get someone else in

 

 

I heard that Langfield rejected the move to Rangers because he wanted first team football.. :-/

 

Jussi would obviously be a great signing. Then again so would Ronaldinho.

See, that's what i thought as well. Then 2 weeks later, he's abusing Jimmy in the pub for knocking back the huns' offer. I doubt we'll ever know what went on.
