They both rate the same type of player. Journeyman with limited ability that run around a lot. It's the Aberdeen way. Link to comment

aberdeen1970 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Will be interesting to see if this particular recruitment process leads to a guy from the States being brought in. Link to comment

Try debating like a grown up, or if you're gonna talk pish at least inject some humour. That’s the third time in a short space of time you’ve been foaming at the mouth over one of my posts. Is there something wrong with you? Do you regularly get upset on the internet or are you just tired and emotional? Link to comment

I think we can rest assured Atlanta’s rejects will find their way here. Just listened to the YouTube thing just now & Atlanta were mentioned about 4 times when mentioning recruitment & scouting. 1 Link to comment

You'd think there's no real need to bring someone in from there though as we should have that market already covered through the 'relationship'. Someone from Europe would be a better choice and give us that balance. I'm not hugely enamoured by Steven Gunn either tbh. Doesn't give off a leadership vibe at all. Link to comment

McInnes will have known all about Kennedy. I’m assuming the English lads or players signed from the English lower leagues were Richardson. Any players up here I’m assuming McInnes “scouted”.

If your manager needs someone to spot the best players in the same league that he plays 4 times a season then you're pretty fucked Link to comment

Just listened to the YouTube thing just now & Atlanta were mentioned about 4 times when mentioning recruitment & scouting. I said on the transfer rumour thread they keep hinting at using the budget differently which i can only take to mean accepting a couple of spare atlanta players, promoting a few youngsters quicker than mcinnes would have done meaning the budget can go further to get a couple of marquee players in to try and make a difference Link to comment
Tord31 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Anyway the most exciting thing about the recruitment change is the new guy having the remit to cast the net worldwide. Beyond that I dont think its the worst thing that they'll be expected to work collaboratively with Atlanta. Whether that means looking at a striker theyve seen but are not going to go for, accepting a couple of their spare players, or babysitting a signing for 6-12 months (probably dont so that again in next 2 years) Link to comment

Andy_123 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Richardson was an awful for us. 8 years, and Cosgrove (and soon Ferguson) are the only signing during that time we’ve moved on for money. Is that right? Or am I forgetting any? He gets zero credit from me for identifying guys we signed from the SPFL like Shinnie and McLean. Obvious signings any idiot could identify. Link to comment

Cosgrove £2M and Stockley £0.6M (cos he was free, then sold, then sell on fee kicked in) are the biggest success stories I think. There are some stories that are ok; Taylor the first time, Hedges, and Joe Lewis for example. Obviously quite a few of the loans will be from watching all the u23 games and absolute fair fucks on identifying and getting us Maddison. It's a shame we couldn't utilise him better and have persuaded him to stay longer The Ferguson family approached AFC about Lewis being available so he was not unearthed. Link to comment

Would explain the links to the lad Burr, their 3rd or 4th choice right back. Gallagher & Brown won’t be cheap & we have to hope there are maybe another couple at that level incoming. 1 Link to comment

Ferguson, bought for 100K or something, could go for 3-5 millCosgrove- 80K- sold for £2,000,000. We paid Hamilton 375K for Ferguson, and the undisclosed fee we paid Carlisle was between 20K and 40K.
