So it’s done. True, though it wasn't just Goodwin turning down what he asked for during the negotiations - they turned round and withdrew the original offer as well. Got to feel a bit sorry for him - remember when we made him captain after Ricky Foster left and then took it off him again straight away when Russell Anderson came back? Link to comment

There's probably more chance of Mikey Devlin playing tomorrow than Considine.... Link to comment
RUL Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 He was still coaching u16s last night so I don't think relations are as strained as some are making out. Link to comment

Fair enough, each to their own. There was 2 people in the meeting Considine and Goodwin So, yeah, I'm confident Link to comment

You'd like to think so, but if 5th is definitely getting Europa Conference at that point and we need a win to get it......unless we are at least 2 up with 10 minutes to go can you see Goodwin risking it? 1 Link to comment

Although that also coincided with Considine being out for about 10 months with a leg break. By the time he got back it was just awkwardly forgotten. Can anyone tell me who was the complete donkey who broke his leg for Dundee?? Link to comment

None of us know what happened in those talks. It could well have been Considine and his agent who turned around and said "we are not willing to take that offer" so Aberdeen withdrew it. I honestly can't see the club just going "We aren't accepting that offer so we'll withdraw all offers and leave it at that, bye". It's much more likely the agent said they were not willing to take the initial offer and that was that. Link to comment

brownie Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 He would be. He reports to him and its a significant role at the club. The guy Gunn is apparently a nice lad but he's a nodding dog for Cormack. If we changed DoF then I wouldn't be concerned. However, it's convenient for an agent, family member or someone close to Considine to blame Gunn. The reality is that Andy and his agent fucked it big time. 1 Link to comment

Some have spoken to one of Considine's mates and they've said that never happened and it was a leak from the club. Surely Sir Andy's mates are all posh, salt of the earth type chaps that are beyond reproach... Or, They are talking out their arse and don't know whats been going on, Or fed a false narrative to cover big Andy's fuck up.

I doubt many clubs would be offering him a 2 year deal. Even Ryan giggs was only getting 1 year deals at Man U at that age. Considine has every right to ask for more money. Aberdeen have every right to say no and end negotiations based on that. There's nothing much more to it. fuck knows where he’ll end up. Think I recall a 33 or so year old Derek Whyte rejecting an extension with us and he ended up going to Partick for a season and getting relegated And then he went to the papers crying that we hadn't met his wage demands, and thusly WE had forced HIM out of the club. Fuck that guy. 1 Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 I don’t really care how others feel about Considine. He is an Aberdeen legend. Just because we have had plenty far better players more worthy of that label doesn’t mean he cannot also be one. This is where far too many are indeed still stuck in the past & thinking Aberdeen are still a huge club full of international players. Shit clubs with zero honours & history also have legends as players. Look at Goodwin. He is a St Mirren legend. Considine scored 41 goals for us. Some of them (a good few) were massive goals as well. He was player of the year 3 times for us which is all the more impressive for a CH & especially a CH that has spent so many seasons playing LB. He’s in our top five for appearances for Aberdeen. Aberdeen as a club have been shite/also rans for his whole career & even 10 years before he made his debut but that shouldn’t reflect badly on just him & take anything away from what he has been for us. The arrogance/ignorance towards his 18 years or whatever for us reflects badly on some fans that literally are still stuck in the past. Basically thinking that only players that played under Fergie should be classed as ‘legends’ Legends take many forms & he is a legend in many ways. 1 5 Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Let’s see how his coaching career goes. Hopefully he has a better career in that than he did as a player & that would be very impressive. Wouldn’t surprise me to see him back at the club in the years to come in some form or another. Link to comment
