RicoS321 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Posted January 8, 2017 I'm definitely not one to normally think this way but why are we getting all the transfer attention? We have a few players in the later stages of their contracts (plus Hayes, who's just been consistently very good for a long time now). It's easy to blame the press, but I suspect the agents of said players (McGinn, Considine etc) have a hand to play in this. I think the press will find it easier to splash rumours about us though, and given the opportunity they will, however given that there is a summer break, everything should be settled down by the time we get back to actual games.

Elgindon Posted January 8, 2017 Report Posted January 8, 2017 Is his contract up at the end of the season? Signed a 2 year contract starting April or May this year . £200k though?,surely talking upper hundreds before thinking about selling Quote
manc_don Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Signed a 2 year contract starting April or May this year . £200k though?,surely talking upper hundreds before thinking about selling Would have thought so. But I imagine it would be the press probably not thinking (hardly surprising here) and assuming he was one of those with expiring contracts. When they realise this theyll claim he's demanding a move etc...load of shite. It's truly amazing to see the lengths they are going to try and ensure second place. Pathetic. Quote

Wait for the news to break that he has a release clause @ £200k Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 It would not surprise me if Logan had a release clause fitted in to his contract. £200k would be ridiculous though. Quote
Tyrant Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 I'd be very disappointed in Considine if he went to The Hunnery. But also I'd be disappointed if AFC Football Club didn't offer him an extension worth signing. Quote
KennyFuckinPowers Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Andy will retire at Aberdeen, fairly certain of that. The day will come though when a player like Logan, Hayes, McGinn or Rooney eventually move and it'll be interesting to see how we cope, we haven't been used to a player regarded as a key member leaving under McInnes, not that I can think of anyway.

I'd agree with that. If the club let consi go it would be silly. More bollocks from the press I'd say. And if logan has a 200k release clause despite having proved his worth then shame on us. Don't buy it though Quote
manc_don Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Scott Wright has signed a new 2 year deal: http://www.afc.co.uk/news/9022.php#.WHPTJFXc5pg Quote
cupidstunt Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Have just read that we are supposedly going to accept an offer of £200k for Logan. Words fucking fail me if there is any element of truth in this. We have no debt so we dont have a bank demanding we sell. 18 months left on his deal and an integral member of the team. No danger he'd be sold for £200K. Quote
A llad insane Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Scott Wright has signed a new 2 year deal: http://www.afc.co.uk/news/9022.php#.WHPTJFXc5pg Good news as i rate him, but i must admit to being a bit surprised given his lack of opportunities. Quote
RicoS321 Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 Scott Wright has signed a new 2 year deal: http://www.afc.co.uk/news/9022.php#.WHPTJFXc5pg The bench will be pleased. Quote
sooth_stander Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 It would not surprise me if Logan had a release clause fitted in to his contract. All makes sense now. How we've managed to hold on to these players for so long. Club strategy. £800K and Hayes will be away too, similiar clause in his contract too Quote

Edinburghdon Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 There's not a chance we're going to accept £200k for Logan. I'd be amazed if there's anything to any of the other rumours too. Standard January transfer bullshit. Quote
Elgindon Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 My recent track records a bit ropey,but another forum saying Andy Cannon close to signing,faever he is Quote
CtS Posted January 9, 2017 Report Posted January 9, 2017 I'd be amazed if there's anything to any of the other rumours too. Apart from the McGinn to hearts one, which is in fact, fact. Quote
manc_don Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Apart from the McGinn to hearts one, which is in fact, fact. Well, you should have said. Now you've put fact at the end it's a done deal I see according to the P&J we're linked with Falkirk's Craig Sibbald, naturally the story is full of quotes... https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/sport/football/aberdeen-fc/1135468/dons-boss-casting-the-net-wide-for-new-players/ Quote
RicoS321 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Sibbald isn't good enough from what I've seen. Decent skills, nice player, but very much a Higginbotham type. Not quite good enough for the top level but likely to score against you. Burns is probably better. Quote
Reidzer 1314 Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Twitter murmur is that we have rejected a £500k offer from Cardiff for Jonny Hayes. Quote
Nips_and_Tatties Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Twitter murmur is that we have rejected a £500k offer from Cardiff for Jonny Hayes. Feckin quite right Give us some news ya bastards!!! Quote
manc_don Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Twitter murmur is that we have rejected a £500k offer from Cardiff for Jonny Hayes. Good, we shouldn't even be talking unless it's £2m. Quote
LA-Don Posted January 10, 2017 Author Report Posted January 10, 2017 Then again, we gave away Willo Flood for free and have then struggled with that position all season. Who knows what we'll do!! Quote
BigAl Posted January 10, 2017 Report Posted January 10, 2017 Then again, we gave away Willo Flood for free and have then struggled with that position all season. Who knows what we'll do!! I reckon we will terminate Storey's contract thereby allowing the chairman who hates us to get him back at no cost to them. Of course what we should be doing if we don't want him is advise club's of his availability and at least try and get a few grand for him Quote

If there was intent to get Tansey however, a swap deal could probably be agreed. Although that'd be like swapping Jeffrey Monakana for Donervan Daniels. Quote
