Tyrant Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 We all know that Aberdeen Journals use The Hat and DonsTalk as their primary source for all their football "reporting". Someone should make a thread saying "Jimmy Calderwood is being lined up to replace Mulgrew at left-back" and it would be in the paper imorn.

Tyrant Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Jimmy Calderwood is good in that position and he's available for free so he's just what we need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 33-year-old, capped 25 times, has been released by Bristol City after a year at Ashton Gate. Hartley was a near ever-present for the Robins last season, scoring five goals for the Championship club. However, with his family remaining in Scotland, he was keen on a return home and City manager Steve Coppell consented to his early release. Hartley spent two seasons at Celtic before his move to Bristol City and rose to prominence as a central midfielder during his time at Hearts. He had been strongly linked with a return to Tynecastle but Hearts manager Jim Jefferies has made more attack-minded players a signing priority. Defender Zander Diamond will be Hartley's vice-captain at Pittodrie. Bristol City manager Steve Coppell has also revealed that Bradley Orr and Jamie McCombe are on the look out for new clubs.

McMaster Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Well, got to say i too am delighted. Great signing really considering. Waiting on Hendrie, . . . . that could be well optomistic. Prefer Williams to Hendrie if i had to pick between the two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Good signing, still not my favourite but welcome aboard! Probably the best candidate for captain too, be nice if we got another solid signing. Btw pissing myself at Jeffries wanting more attack minded players, as well as ones Mad Vlad deems "good to have about the place". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, I'm pleased we've got him and he's certainly a much needed addition (if it wasn't him, it had to be someone else of similar experience) and the captaincy won't faze him. Had it been a choice (it may well still be) between him or Hendrie I'd have gone for Hartley, a steadier hand I'd say. I had heard we were supposed to be announcing a double signing today, hope this doesn't now mean we're not getting Williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGhee said in his RedTV interview that Williams was offered a deal a few days ago but hasn't responded yet. Said we are focusing on Basey now.

Said we are focusing on Basey now. Having not seen him play, was he really worth it? I hope he decides to accept the deal and he's our double signing today that BB was talking about.

BobbyBiscuit Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Talking of McDonald what`s the score with him if Hartley got his No.4 shirt? His contract ran out, so he's not an Aberdeen player anymore. he's on trial at Motherwell. as in the football club, not the Sherriff Court.
