Powerful catapult on the stadium roof, targeted at an extremely large mattress that fits snugly into the Castlegate. Surely. Link to comment

We could use one for the away fans as well. Only instead of a large mattress, Jamie Langfield is there to catch them. 2 Link to comment

Andy_123 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 There were plans for them to move a few years ago certainly. Not sure if anything ever came of it. Link to comment

Site Sponsor Dom Sullivan Posted August 21, 2018 Site Sponsor Share Posted August 21, 2018 The vets are moving are they not? I've maybe made that up.They were moving to the Cockers roses site beside Dobbies on Lang Stracht provided their site was sold to Drum (Prime Four developers). All fell through during the O&G downturn. Irony is that one of the vets bides immediately behind the proposed Kingsford Stadium site on Brodiach Road and he was objecting like buggery to the new stadium. Wisna objecting to receiving x millions for his existing vets site for an office block though. Seems to be selective objecting going on from some of the WANKs. Link to comment

Rostov-on-Don Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 A fans carry out zone where you bring your own cans etc and smash them . Hopefully you can do that anyway if you want to and are on a budget. Not quite the NFL style tailgating idea Cormack mentioned, but it's normal in Europe for people to stand outside with all sorts. Actually at Rapid Vienna there's an Austrian discount supermarket chain 10 metres across the street from the home end and they stand in that car park or right outside the stand with crates of booze. No distance. Plenty of football clubs in Scotland have bars within the stands, however you have to leave the bar then go in through the turnstiles. There's no access to the bars from inside the ground (apart from corporate). Suggestions of bigger bars, beer in the concourse or beer tents outside are great - but the club isn't interested. They are targeting a certain type of supporter with the new stadium. Even if there was no chance ever of beer in the concourses, they could work around it... if they wanted to, as you say. Outer layer, or outwards facing, bars before you go through the turnstiles. Requires the design to not be lazy uninspiring shite like. I hope the fans are as active and interested in pressuring the club to get everything spot on as they are in discussing every single puff of air from Clare or whatever she's ca'd, before we're entombed in something standard and lazy for life.

Site Sponsor Dom Sullivan Posted August 21, 2018 Site Sponsor Share Posted August 21, 2018 See the WANKs have posted a link to the Council's website which gives the public the opportunity to voice opinion on the proposed fast food developments next to the vets in Kingswells. Of course, the site allows you to vote in favour if you want. My vote in favour is in. Those wishing to voice opinion one way or the other can do so here: https://publicaccess.aberdeencity.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=makeComment&keyVal=PCH2OYBZG0T00 Oh, and fuck the WANKs :-) 1 Link to comment
CraigHill Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Support given. Could use a drive through on the way home from work. Oh yeah and fuck the WANKS.Must be soul destroying for them to see work continuing at the site. That makes me happy. 2 Link to comment

They are targeting a certain type of supporter with the new stadium. As I said..... There will be a bar at the stadium (and a café for the modern fitba beauts who want a skinny latte or fitiver prior to ko). Capacity is the problem tho. A huge fuck off beer tent with patio heaters and 100 lager taps is what is required.....won't happen tho. Link to comment
Betty Swallicks Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Milne should build a cricket ground nextdoor. Pished up on the outfield whilst waiting 2hrs for the shuttle bus to return. Just require to move to summer football and jobs a good un. 2 Link to comment

If the stadium is going to be hosting rugby, then it's in their interests to cater for drinking inside the ground anyway. Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 You'd end up living near a football stadium for a start, which will mean Increased Terrorist threat.Fights every week in and around your house20 thousand cars parked around your area every week100+ shuttle buses going back and forth down your streetIncreased chances of losing a pet. However, the biggest downside is becoming a cunt.AND (MT™️) the difficulty for kids to travel to the cinema while the soccer(WANKS description not mine) is on Link to comment

The club will be interested in all these things if they can make money from them, don’t worry about that. £5 a weak beer at the stadium and they get most of the profit? Probably make more money than AberDNA.....just Link to comment
