Pa Broon & Archie - confirmed on 2.5 year deals

[BigAl]

How fucking raging is John "two pence in the pound" Boyle going to be if this goes through.

No compo this time either Frankie boy to soften the blow.

 

What goes around, comes around

[glasgowdon]

Nothing coming out from our sources in Motherwell. If its happening he hasnt told anyone in Motherwell.

 

Radio Clyde (Sportsound is finished) reporting the deal is almost done...

Craig Brown appears likely to accept a second approach from Aberdeen to take their vacant manager's position.

[Stewart]

Right, they'll have finished watching Corrie now.

 

Can they make the announcement soon, please?

How does any of that make it seem like he's changed his mind?

 

The only thing that suggets Brown is on the verge of taking over is the journo's intro saying Brown is on the verge of taking over.

 

No substantiation and basically just a load of assumptions.

[Ajja]

SSN still reporting he is 'in talks'. Sportsound said that Knox would have to come with and that may be the stumbling block. Brown's language certainly sounded like back pedalling from his initial rejection. Both parties are desperately trying to make sure that it doesn't seem like this is the preferred route for them in case it doesn't work out and they leave a bad feeling at both clubs.

SM "Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssssssssssssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Craig!"

[Ajja]

Done deal on SSN.

[Nellie The Don]

I would fucking love to have Craig Brown as our manager.

 

This (possible) appointment aside, I think he should still be Scotland manager.

 

That is all.

[Ajja]

Get SSN on now they are about to cover it.

[Penfold]

Sky Sports won't know anything official until it's on RedWeb.

 

If they had had it confirmed it would be going across the screen in yellow, not a teaser sentance and on within the next hour.

It's fucking cricket!

BBC Confirm this!

[Madbadteacher]

He's up late for a pensioner! 

[El Padre™]

He's up late for a pensioner! 

 

He probably had to have an afternoon nap before he decided.

[RDU_64]

Fucking hell, what a development!

[mizer]

STV reporters saying he will be unveiled at Pittodrie tomorrow
