scotfree Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 http://www.afc.co.uk/articles/20140515/club-statement-_2212158_3833084 Club Statement Aberdeen Football Club has confirmed that Russell Anderson, Barry Robson and Nicky Low have all signed one year deals that will see them remain at Pittodrie until next summer. Manager Derek McInnes commented. "All three have made important contributions to the season just finished and I'm looking for them to play their part in the progression of the club next season." Josh Magennis, Scott Vernon and Nicky Weaver meanwhile will not be offered new contracts while Alan Tate has also left the club following the end of his loan spell. Derek said. "I would like to thank all the above players for their contributions to the club and wish them all the very best in their future careers." The future of defender Shaleum Logan, whose contract at Brentford expires at the end of the month, is still unclear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 No real surprise in any of that, other than possibly Vernon, but guess we have someone lined up to replace him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manc_don Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Genuinely sad that Crespo has gone hopefully have a suitable striker lined up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jute Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Sorry to see Vernon go as thought he could have done a job as back up to Rooney again next season. I have faith in current management team to have a replacement already lined up to be in for start of preseason and the first euro tie. Hopefully Vernon goes back down South as I would not want to see him going to another SPL team. Good to see Low getting another year. Think he has looked a decent player in the games I have seen him in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlg1903 Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Anyone else thinking we might be putting an offer to kenny mclean who's out of contract this summer? I think he would be an excellent addition and our central midfield could do with strength in depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kowalski Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 ABERDEEN chairman Stewart Milne is willing to dig deep into his own pockets to pay the transfer fee for Graeme Shinnie after the Dons made a move for the Inverness defender. By: Scott Burns The Dons have already asked Caley Thistle if their highly-rated left-back, above, is available. Express Sport understands Aberdeen were given very little encouragement but are still ready to firm up their interest with a five-figure bid this week. Inverness value Shinnie in six figures and know there is interest from Hibs and clubs south of the border, so much depends on whether they believe they can strike a better deal elsewhere. But they may also not want to risk the 22-year-old running down his contract. Milne, pleased with progress under Derek McInnes, wants the Dons to kick on and is prepared to fork out some of his own money if the manager identifies a player, such as Shinnie, whom he believes will enhance their squad. McInnes wants his transfer business done quickly with the Dons making an early start in Europe, so will try to sign Shaleum Logan – freed by Brentford – on a permanent basis. McInnes also wants a striker and a keeper to push Jamie Langfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Bobby Clark Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 no mcfadden for me. We've got enough wide players and are in need of full backs and a striker. Would much rather funds went that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrant Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 Surely if he's only 30 he's still got some gas in the tank? Although unless it was a financial decision, Motherwell releasing him says it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kowalski Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 DUNDEE look set to win the race to sign former Dons striker Scott Vernon. The 30-year-old Englishman was one of three players told by Aberdeen their contracts were not being renewed. It’s understood Vernon, who scored 43 goals during his four years at Pittodrie, is keen to remain north of the border. He’s already held talks with newly promoted Dundee, who are managed by his former Pittodrie team-mate Paul Hartley. Vernon scored 15 goals in his first season at Pittodrie to finish as the club’s top scorer. He spent much of last season on the bench but still played his part to help the Dons win the League Cup and qualify for Europe. Vernon scored one of Aberdeen’s penalties in their League Cup final shoot-out victory over Inverness Caley Thistle. He also claimed a hat-trick in Aberdeen’s 3-1 league win over Dundee United at Tannadice earlier this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
