If the money is there and the coonsil think about it, build a new ground in the city centre. Fuck knows where like.

50 yards across the road from the current one will do

[Dom Sullivan]

If only the club statement included a line about the departure of the Red TV wets, surely they're in the firing line

I was thinking this too.

 

Surely time for their amateurish pish to be flushed away and replaced with something a tad more professional.

mind when that galoot gooby was going on about the water from the sea being the issue

I'm expecting to hear Atlanta fans singing Ten Men Went To Mow in short order. 

[Ramandu]

Any chance they fancy buying McKenna?

Instead of the current RedTV intro that is basically a bland 'Game will start in X minutes' placeholder, I demand the new build up to the match go something like this...

The retardation is strong in that one

Georgia love their highland games, i think its the smokey mountain highland games. Lots of yanks related to William Wallace and Robert the bruce.

Tyrone reporting it on BBC website

I missed that one.

 

The Atlanta statement said they would have no oversight or involvement of the football operations at Afc.

 

Odd for them to have such a profile figure on our board in that case.

AMB Sports putting in £2m of the £5m investment.

Yeah. Got that thanks.

 

Doesn't mean they have to put someone on the board though and their statement seemed to suggest they wouldn't get involved.

 

Just seems a bit of a contradiction to me.

I suppose we’ll find out more tomorrow & during the week

[fine-n-dandy]

Why would Millermong go through a third party when he could just have asked in person?

Because of the stick he took for talking shite about five memberships of AberDNA

[tightbreeks]

You want a club in the champions league my American friends. Then with minimal outlay, you'll get one. If the huns and the victims keep on doing well. Win the league or split them. Glorious Pittodrie nights here we come. Like when man city were bought, it'll be even easier for us to do this.

[tightbreeks]

New stadiums, merch, hotdogs, beer, one city team. Maybe Aberdeenshire might show an interest in football again.

[Guest milne_afc]

This might need to be unlocked if the rumours of redevelopment at Pittodrie have any truth.

 

Let's hope so

If you pay decent players more than the tims n huns, they will come a flocking.

[tightbreeks]

If all this comes to fruition, rubies law, cults and milltimber house prices will get even more expensive. The wilmslow of the North.

[Dunty]

Compared to Atlanta we're a destitute wee team from the arse end of nowhere, with a tiny fan base and little in the way of serious investment.

 

Whether they were formed five years, five minutes, or five centuries ago is irrelevant.

 

If they can bring money and success to Aberdeen then I'm delighted.

See if you take the big roof and TV screens away, what they have there are four very shallow stands. Is that not what everyone wants to avoid at Kingsford?

[CalgaryDon]

I'm delighted by the announcement made by the club today. Exciting times ahead. Atlanta Utd are the wealthiest side in the MLS with a current value of 330 million dollars. They also won the MLS last season. Its a fantastic partnership for Aberdeen. We should improve as a club on a number of fronts from Sports nutrition and analysis, scouting, youth development, player recruitment etc.

 

I think our club is in good hands and is doing all they can to bridge the gap with the OF. I honestly don't believe this is in the realms of Mad Vlad and what happened with Hearts. I'm not anticipating the kind of investment that will have us splitting the OF.

 

We now have state of the art training facilities - supposedly there are further plans for an indoor training pitch. My only concern is the funding of the new stadium. I'm hoping there is further information from the club regarding this tomorrow.

[muttonhumper]

There are very few places in the city centre big enough to build it on.

 

Harlaw playing fields - Private land and probably too expensive to purchase.

Seaton Park - Out of the way and it's got a problem with drainage.

The beach - Private land and the foundation works would cost a fortune.

Lads Club pitches - Out of the way and I think a fair chunk of it has been sold to developers.

Summerhill Academy - Not big enough.

AECC BOD - Out of the way and I think it has already been sold to developers.

 

There could be others however I think the only options are the new stadium or redeveloping Pittodrie.

 

Across fae the Duthie Park.

Outline is current external Pittodrie footprint  - that area is 3 to 4 times as big. Also with option to overhang river if necessary.

30 min walk fae station, or build station right there as train gings past it.

 

Run the gantlet o' Torry bams at the bottom o' Balnagask Rd.

Tesco and Lidl handy for carry oots which can be consumed on the grassy areas, then simply pish in the river.

Screwfix nearby for purchase of hammers and nail guns when the hun come to town.

 

Clean up some dog shit, level aff, build the cunt.

 

[The_Next_Legend]

If i was a mutli-millionaire, I'd buy the duthie park off the council and give it to Aberdeen to build their stadium there - an absolute ideal location.

[slippers]

Club are hardly going to announce that they have 20m to spend in transfer window and be held to ransom! I’m not saying that will happen but I’m holding onto hope Aberdeen wheel out 3/4 major signings on the 1st of January!

 

I wonder what the actual situation with the first team players for Atlanta would be. MLS doesn’t start until March. Could we see then arrival on short term basis? Majority of there key players are South American so probably would struggle to get work permit.

[Poodler]

Regardless if Atlanta are the wealthiest club, if they have players the quality of Gallagher playing for them, loans will be of no benefit to us

[Lencarl]

The new Stadium will be built at Kingsford:

We will hire a well known foreign manager once we move from Pittodrie:

We will challenge the Glasgow teams by spending our new found wealth from our friends in the USA:

The dawn of an new era for the Dons is coming.

[Poodler]

A new don

Gallagher has never played for the Atlanta first team and maybe never will? Aberdeen vs Atlanta would be a interesting game. Wonder who would win?

The fans!!
