GLOBETROTTING striker Rory Fallon today revealed he is ready to travel more than 20,000 miles – and still not miss an Aberdeen FC game.

 

Fallon has been called up to the New Zealand squad to face Jamaica in a friendly in Auckland on Wednesday, February 29.

 

However, there will not be much time for rest as the Aberdeen FC striker will race back to Pittodrie in time to face Celtic on Saturday, March 3.

ABERDEEN FC boss Craig Brown today heaped praise on the unsung heroes of their 12-match unbeaten run.

 

If you were to ask Aberdeen FC fans to pick out their top men in a remarkable run of results since the turn of the year it’s doubtful if Rory McArdle and Rory Fallon would feature prominently.

 

But manager Brown was happy to hail Northern Ireland defender McArdle and New Zealand striker Fallon for the parts played over the last few weeks.

 

No Craig he has been shit  :hammer:

Why no new contract offer for McArdle then  ???

Thought the guy was supposedly desperate to stay ?

 

He should be offered a contract, certainly deserves one. It's quite ridiculous that they haven't offered him one yet* tbh!

 

*assuming they haven't done this...

If we have offered, it certainly seems to have been kept under wraps then

Certainly can't be taken out of the team after today's performance.  The key will be whether he can keep it going.

 

He played really well. Either he took on board what we were all saying as we are the vocal majority or he had some divine intervention. Divine intervention won us the cup in 1990 so I hope it was the latter.

For the avoidance of doubt to anyone that wasn't there today.

Even if Fallon hadn't scored both goals today, he was a worthy contender for MOTM (along with Brown). Thought he led the line superbly. I've been amongst his biggest critics but not today. Well done Rory, but as Kow says, lets keep it going  :thumbsup:
