Chris Oldfield: ‘I want to be No 1 for Aberdeen FC’

On-trial keeper Oldfield aiming for the top

TRIALIST Chris Oldfield today vowed to go all out to win a deal with Aberdeen FC – and become No 1 at Pittodrie.

 

The former Liverpool youth stopper is battling to earn a contract with Aberdeen FC.

 

The 20-year-old is on trial along with former Coventry City midfielder Isaac Osbourne and Spanish midfielder Andoitz Galdos Gabas.

Who is coming in next week for trial?

 

The Nigerian striker? The Aussie boy in midfield?

Hopefully he can exorcise the disappointment of previous trialists and ring the bell of a new era at Pittodrie.

As long as he's not a tube.

A new OmmaDawn for AFC?

Quality a keeper who was released by Welsh giants Bangor Town.

Ach we always have Maggeniss as a reserve.

Bobby Clark came from amateurs Queens Park and Leighton came from Juniors Dalry Thistle, what's your point caller?

You do realise football has changed in the 40 years since we signed Bobby Clark? Being released from Welsh giants Bangor Town suggests that the boy is fucking shite and possibly not the best goalkeeper in the history of Aberdeen FC.

It has? Really? Are you sure? Christ I must be fucking thick to have missed that  :doh:

 

My point was that there are still quality players to be found in the most unlikely places, you just have to look.

I went down there wi the wife a while back. She just complained that I had only took her to Bangor.

Christ I must be fucking thick

The fact he's been overlooked by every single Welsh and English side suggests he is fucking pish.

 

I'd be delighted to be wrong though.

Preece did not arrive at Aberdeen as a decent keeper. Leighton's coaching turned him into a semi-decent keeper over the space of 3 or 4 years.

No fucking shit.
