Proposed new stadium, by Aberdeen beach
At The Border Guy replied to sooth_stander's topic in AFC and Scottish Football
I mean, yeah, but costs now have fecked any projections that were made 5-10 years ago. Just because it might get even more expensive, doesn't change the fact we probably don't have the money for it just now. If a guy who owned a construction firm couldn't get this moving, then I can't see Toothy Dave managing it in the current financial climate. -

It's not happening until construction and material costs drop significantly. Council are skint, so won't be contributing a dime. Reckon there'll be the odd aesthetic change to Pittodrie, but nothing substantial is happening for years. -
Scottish Cup - 2023/24
At The Border Guy replied to Frank Grimes's topic in AFC and Scottish Football
Even with relegation still a possibility, any of our remaining league games sounds a better away day than this. I'm spending my money on one of them instead. -
The bit where it jumped from folk angrily telling Stewart he was talking bollocks to Bryan Gunn singing the praises of Sidney Divine is one of the most bizarre bits of radio I've ever heard.

My only theory is he's giving a shout out to his mates. All of those three have proven themselves to be shite at football management and/or throwing their toys out of the pram and/or being cunts on a human level. Their time in football should be over, full stop.

Got the Montrose v Falkirk game on just now. Know I'm likely to be shot down given the two division difference, but John McGlynn looks like he'd have been a really good shout if he hadn't just won promotion (unbeaten). Every player making an effort, and all look like they're enjoying themselves, which counts for a lot.

Match Thread Aberdeen 2 - 1 Ross County

Should be celebrating, but just checked the fixture list and now feel anxiety over fucking up against Livvy. 😬 Roll on season's end. -
Match Thread Aberdeen 2 - 1 Ross County
At The Border Guy replied to Schapenneuker's topic in AFC and Scottish Football
Draw would've been fairer given how shit we were for huge chunks of the match, but that was a massive result. Nice to have a bit of air between us, County and St Johnstone. -
Reckon we're at the point where this shit is coming home to roost. Potential managers have been turned off, and I can see anyone remotely talented in other areas thinking we're not worth the hassle.
-
Reckon we're now a toxic club who fuck up the reputations of anyone who dares to circle our orbit. Burrows is just the latest who seems to be taking flak for situations created by the wider board.

Loads of our fans are cunts, but even their expectations aren't unrealistic.
-
The length of time it's taking, I'm thinking this might be right. Holding off until the international break is done.

Most hated Aberdeen player

Tbf, he might have fallen in with a bad crowd (farmers) in Ayrshire or the north-east. -
Most hated Aberdeen player
At The Border Guy replied to ericblack4boss's topic in AFC and Scottish Football
Was chatting about him last week as my friend had emails from him through his work. Prick was brought up in Cumnock, spent most of his career in Wigan, Dunfermline and Dundee, and _still_ somehow turned out a Tory cunt. Bizarre. -

Don't think I've ever utterly despised anyone. Loads I've thought were annoying cunts though - Especially some of our better players. Lee Miller being a diving prick always got to me. Could've scored dozens more for us if he'd just learned to turn around a defender without throwing himself to the fucking floor. Chris Maguire another one - Would've been an infinitely better player if only he didn't think he was one already. That rumoured bid for Kyle Lafferty the other year would've changed everything though. I'd have spent every waking moment ensuring he knew he was an abhorrent cunt who shouldn't be at our club.
