Venezuelan international regular that hardly plays for us having been paid for supposedly by Cormack himself rather than the club.

That seems strange in itself. But ok, we might just have been unlucky, let's try to offload him elsewhere. 

Now Christ knows how many professional football teams there are in the world..........actually just googled and in Fifa report 2019 there were a minimum of 3903 teams over 201 countries......so what do you think the chances were that Hernandez would just somehow randomly next end up at the very club we had only a year or so before announced as our strategic partner? Most of us actually predicted it long before it happened....

Yet whilst the international full back awaited his dream move to, coincidentally, Dave's other Club, he watched on as his Club with no Full backs decided that playing, variously, a centre half, two sitting midfielders and what appeared to be a netball player that had gone to the wrong changing room filled the position.  Badly.

Well you pretty much are actually.  You’ve just alerted the authorities to a criminal activity involving AFC. 

And we might have got away with it if it wasn’t for you pesky fuds

Can anyone translate his goodbye message on twitter?

[BonnieDon]

“Who has always been attentive to me; to all the colleagues I had and employees of the club. And, of course, to the fans for the affection they still transmit to me. I will carry them in my heart and I will always wish them the best. Thank you, Aberdeen FC! Scotland is a country with an impressive footballing tradition. Living that up close marked me. Like the applause I received from their beautiful and loyal fans on the day of my debut at Pittodrie Stadium. I sincerely thank the directors; to President Dave Cormack, @CormackDavie Today I formally say goodbye to @aberdeenfc Certainly he already had several months in another destination (on loan); but now it is official that I definitively close my cycle in Aberdeen to make life definitively where I am today. My internship there was very special.”

He thinks Aberdeen is in England and posted an England flag in his insta message. 

Hope he has a shite career.

Why are Atlanta signing him? He was there on loan and they barely played him.

Needs to get his flags right then. 

All you Aberdonian Unionists must've fucked with his head.

He maybe just liked the colours ?

This was nothing more than a chairman’s signing. He needed to move cash about and this lad was signed. It would have been better fun if the player he picked had a major impact on the team. It could well have been hurried through though.

Seriously RJ, you think these multi millionaires are trying move cash/launder money at around $1m? Have a word with yourself. 
 

He was clearly a player Atlanta liked but did have enough space in their foreign quotas. Move him to Aberdeen and sign him up when there was space in the quota. 
 

Covid travel restrictions fucked everything up a bit and he moved back quicker than expected and played less games for us than thought. 
 

But it has fuck all to do with money laundering.

It’s just a small part in the grand scheme of things. Look at the money for the training facilities etc and money to keep us going during the worst of covid. Money came from America with no so called return (publicly). Think about it. Football is rife with money laundering especially in England. Why would we be no different?

We can't afford to sign players, never mind unknowns, for a million quid... but Atlanta can

We don't have a history of signing South Americans (Kurt Cobain aside)... but Atlanta does

We had a manager who claimed to have 'scouted [Hernandez] extensively'... but refused to play him

If Aberdeen spends a million quid on a player, regardless of how bad he might be, he's going to be playing. Particularly under McInnes. May was 400k, couldn't score in a brothel, yet McInnes persevered with him... so being shite was no impediment to playing for McInnes. 

When we signed Hernandez it was for a position we already had an established, albeit declining Logan... with, let's say a very decent replacement coming through the youth ranks to replace the cheeky plumber. 

Was there even a reason to sign a million pound Right Back for Aberdeen, given we're in the free/cheap market? That's so far out of the ordinary for us that you'd have to be not paying any attention at all to not sit up and take notice. 

At the time he was signed it appeared he was signed more as an Atlanta player than an Aberdeen player, and that Aberdeen was merely a transition point on his way to Atlanta, but, hey, there's thousands of other professional clubs in the world who might want to take a look at him, right? 

...and then he signs for Atlanta on a loan deal. 

... and then he signs for Atlanta permanently. 

If this all seems like it was on the up and up to you, that he was truly always an Aberdeen player, and that the plan wasn't always that he'd be going to Atlanta, then fair do's. 

 

No idea why fans are even bothered.

Because it makes us look fucking tinpot

Now in reality, there is certainly a case that at present we are fucking tinpot. But it kinda goes against Cormack's dream of being a European top 100 club

It makes us look tinpot? The only cunts who have even took an interest in the whole thing is our own fans. It doesnt matter a fuck.

Should just have used online banking. A lot easier.
