Genuinely think we could get a better striker for 750k.

Theres every chance rooney could be let go tbh. Stockley picked ahead of him for the big games and also now looks like maynard as well. If we do get moult & maloney then it would be safe to say him and storey would be the two to make way although a lot of fans would rather see stockley go. I definitely think 2 out of rooney,storey and stockley will leave this window and with rooney the higher earner and at the moment down the pecking order there could be some truth in this story.

Rooney is struggling with an injury and we only have maynard and Stockley so I'd imagine we wont let him go before next Thursday. We must be close to signing moult if we are letting storey go.

What an absolute nonsense. The boys goal scoring record in Scotland is well above average. Even in his loan spells at Alloa and Hamilton his record was superb. He done ok at Sheffield Wednesday and unfortunately not longer after he signed they got new owners and were buying strikers for millions of pounds but again its the English Championship and a lot of factors can work against your style of play down in that league as well. His injury at preston does sound very bad but by the sounds of it he worked back to fitness and finished the season looking sharp.

It was closer to the 800k mark I'm sure. Its the kind of player Aberdeen may be willing to spend a wee bit of cash on. Still young with lots of potential if he gets over this injury. As I said its all hearsay but its not totally ridiculous to think he could come in permanently however Grayson has been quoted as saying he would like him to come back next season fully fit with games under his belt.

His loan deal was only until January so not sure what a "no recall" clause would achieve in maddisons situation.

My mate played with May at Alloa and he still plays pro football with guys who are close with him. Could still be total rubbish but I don't think it would be a total shock for preston to let him leave and free up his wage if he wanted to move back north and settle again.

I'd like to know what is going with James Maddison. Unless Norwich are trying to sell him to someone and get some sort of fee(similar to wes burns at Bristol city) then I don't understand why he hasn't returned yet. If they had any intention of keeping him then surely he would have made the bench over the last few games. In particular the FA Cup game against Southampton when Neil named 4/5 youth team players in the squad with little to no first team experience. Something just doesn't seem right about Maddison and the fact we are now being linked with Commons and Christie who I would see as replacements for Maddison and not hayes or mcginn. The manager is looking for two new signings and I can only see maybe one more player leaving and that could be Storey on loan. Aberdeen wont deal with Cardiff any longer until they up the offer substantially but that's not say another championship side won't come in desperate for a winger last minute and throw a million pound plus at us. I believe derek is trying to get may in on 2/3 year deal rather than a loan but this is all dependent on Preston getting in another striker and whether or not they want to cut their losses. May is open to the permanent deal.

Absolutely brilliant two weeks for the Dons going in to the international break. I always felt they were all winnable and if we can continue this form by beating County ,Morton and Hamilton then the game against Celtic at Pittodrie looks very tasty. Time to look up the way rather than behind us now we have got in to 2nd place.

Heard a lot of names being linked with us today. James Maddison, Jamie Ness, Tony Andreu, Andrew Davies, Josh Meekings, Greg Tansey, Louis Thompson to name a few. If we can get two players in of this kind of standard I would be satisfied but I'm not sure all fans would be. How some people can call Marvin Johnson a potential marquee signing but Miles Storey a poor signing is beyond me.

From what I hear we are still in for Jamie Ness. He wants to come but Scunthorpe are looking for a fee. The manager was also down at Peterborough vs Norwich last night trying to thrash out a deal for a Norwich player who played last night. It is believed to be attacking midfielder James Maddison but rumours also it may have been Tony Andreu.

He was asking for 3k originally according to reports.

2k a week signed sealed delivered.

I don't believe Stewart is a player Aberdeen are looking at to be honest. It sounds like he's made his mind up that any move will be down south. If we thought there was a chance of Stewart coming in then I don't believe we would of signed Burns. Aberdeen are well covered in the attacking position and any money(if any) would be spent elsewhere.

Reading up on Bristol City forums there fans seem disappointed they have let him go. Many felt he could be a regular starter for them this season.
