Another minted owner. The guy Cormack has obscene wealth, and Aberdeen pay massive wages already as it is.

 

But I can't see Aberdeen making any move unless they sell Cosgrove.


their spending on players is less than ours.. they pay £500k more in total, but pay £800k per annum to mcinnes

 

cormack is wealthy but I don’t believe  he intends to run them at a loss..  he certainly hasn’t hinted at that..

Mulraney was annoying, could turn up for 20 mins in the odd game and look good. Just wasn’t consistent 

 

I’d imagine it was pace that attracted Atlanta who have Stephen glass as a coach. Hope he does well over there but not convinced 

Took him a good 12 months to look good...

Inconsistent and unreliable unfortunately...

What debacle ?
 

She has openly said what they are both doing ?
 

Stendel is focusing on identifying who he doesn’t want and CL/AM are helping move them on.

 

Stendel is then concentrating on the team and getting players in.

 

I really don’t know how much clearer things need to be........

Amen to that!  Tired of how people still don't get it.

 Yep.  He's pretty pish.

 

No football brain either.

Hang on

 

You want them to be doing MORE work????

No I was originally sarcastically pointing out how little they’re doing, the sooner both are nowhere near our club the better.

Dunno why it posted twice.

 

Is it just me or KB running like a pig these days?

 

Take ages for anything to load.

 

Think it may be time for some DB maintenance.

I know I’ve commented on him before but is Morrison hiding in a cupboard? No mention of him anywhere 

He was training with the first team yesterday.

decent move for him as he may look decent in that team and league, good for us to get him off the books and a few quid too. 
 

he’ll get a few quid out of playing over there. Atlanta is a bit of a hole in a pretty nice state though 

Atlanta’s a brilliant city. He’ll have a great time over there. 
 

Like every big American city it has its dodgy parts, but in general it’s excellent. If only

they had a Way to solve their traffic problem... that’s a disaster!

The debacle of keeping him on when it was clear to all he was wasting money and losing points, dragging us into the relegation spot. The debacle of keeping him on even after he was " sacked". The debacle of claiming he was the best candidate even though he didn't want the job, and then later claiming he put himself forward.

The debacle with the new stand costing far more than it should, The debacle of having her family run things, the debacle of the £1 million pound pitch that is worse than my back green. How many more debacles do you want?

Like I said I support her and hope she can stay on in some capacity but as I also said she needs to do some fire fighting.

The internet has ruined you.

 

Its easy done if you can’t think for yourself though......just read something and that’s it. 
 

Whelan and Keena have gone. Berra told he can go. Wighton and Mulraney to leave within days it would appear.

 

That would be 4 out 5......not a bad ratio so far.

You’re the one saying that they’re roles are clearly defined, I'm questioning that and I can’t think for myself?

All through my education I was chastised for asking too many questions, right up until i graduated from the University of Edinburgh with a Masters degree.

Did you read what I said oh wise one?

I will make it easy for you.

Did they speak to Whelan, NO.

Did they speak to Berra, NO.

Have they found someone to take Berra, NO.

Has Wighton/Mulraney/Doyle left, NO.

Have they helped Stendel sign anyone, NO. 
Stendel says himself he’s doing much more than he’s used to doing in regards to hiring, they’re doing about as much in their new roles as they did in the old ones, absolute ****all and should be chased out the club. Budge said they were to continue working in fostering relations with Man City and to keep working on targets, neither of these seem to have happened. Two of the biggest con men earning a living in football today.

Didn't they teach you the difference between opinion and fact on your Masters degree?

I had the same issue with it running slow. I found if you turn off the direct to TV, 4K streams of aggressive man-on-man action it speeds right up. Have to admit though it does make coming on here a bit less interesting. But surely worth a try?

Wighton loan deal agreed with Arbroath

 

Being announced this afternoon

 

Hearts apparently wouldn't let Dundee take him on loan - they preferred Arbroath

Traffic - tell me about it.  Everywhere takes 3 times longer to get to than you think it will.  The I-285 is my least favourite road of all time

Working their notice period.  I have never known anyone overly strain themselves while on notice.  Option was the Vermin's tried and trusted method of gardening leave.

Every city thinks they have the worst traffic... but there’s only one that’s telling the truth, Atlanta!

The fact we’re 5 points adrift and so far have only brought in one player on a 6 month deal is a disgrace. If we lose tonight that fact will become more apparent.

 

Ann Budge is letting us down time and time again, she should be throwing caution to the wind.....this hasn’t happened so far.

This is one of those posts where you just shake your head and wonder what happened to our once wonderful education system.

Neither have I - was there in December but never ventured into the city center, only seen it on TV.  Family I have over there say they are well supported, they have certainly risen up the ranks in the last few years

It’s a post you don’t agree with that’s all. You’ll probably find that there’s different opinions out there other than yours.

Yeah they seem to have taken off much quicker than any other team. Soccer in Atlanta is heavily supported, so it’s understandable! I see the Charlotte team being similar.

Sounds interesting, I was there on the access course from 2006 and finished in 2011. I graduated in history but it was mostly of the Scottish variety, I got better marks in political and economic history and in hindsight I should’ve studied that more.
