Kowalski Posted October 23, 2013 Report Posted October 23, 2013 Darren Mackie has no regrets after American dream dies Ex-Aberdeen FC striker linked with move to Highland League Published: 23/10/2013 STATESIDE: Darren Mackie in action for Phoenix. FORMER Aberdeen FC striker Darren Mackie today claimed he has no regrets after seeing his dreams of a new life in America die. Red Army favourite Mackie is back home after what he described as a “disastrous end” to his 10-month spell with USL Pro-League side Phoenix FC. The return of Mackie, who made close to 400 appearances for Aberdeen during his 14 years at Pittodrie, has sparked speculation he could end up in the Highland League. Big-spending Formartine United and Turriff have been reluctant to comment on rumours the 31-year-old could be bound for either of them. Mackie admitted he’s hoping to keep playing, but was reluctant to say much more at this stage. He said: “I’m really missing my football. “I’ve spoken to a few people about a number of things. “Nothing has been decided yet though, so I can’t say anything more at this stage.” Quote
Tyrant Posted October 23, 2013 Report Posted October 23, 2013 He'll soon be gracing the turf in the Highland League. Quote

dickofthedons Posted February 3, 2014 Report Posted February 3, 2014 He's definitely scored, I think he had two in one game, my partner argues it was just one... Reckon I'm right though, ain't seen him play yet though, he's been out injured the games I've went to. Same old story really Quote
