Spill the beans then? We still need 4 or 5 signings so an educated guess with the players starting back on Friday morning suggests it's hardly earth shattering news to say we'll sign more by Friday night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Source has no clue (or won’t tell me) who it is. But other clubs interested and will be end of this week if they pull it off. Other targets in same position. Doesn’t think it’s Miller though. Same guy who told me DM staying hours before announced and the GMS signing. Tony Watt rumour still going around....[emoji15] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGeouch ....heard we are still in the mix and pushing hard. Miller .... heard we'd been told he expects to get Livingston job Watt ... I don't think is happening but you would guess we'll know that for sure on Friday if he is not joining us for training No idea on defenders but absolutely positive we'll be looking for one or two asap 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Difficult decision at centre half. Do we put faith in devlin and McKenna to be our centre half pairing and sign maybe a backup or do we push the boat out to sign someone to walk into the first team. I haven’t seen enough of devlin (nor do I know how injury prone he actually is) to make an informed opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d31 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I think first pick is the better shout though I've got high hopes for Devlin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen enough of devlin (nor do I know how injury prone he actually is) to make an informed opinion. Get 2-3M offer in for McKenna. Sell him. I might be in the minority but I don’t think his stock will get any higher and I still think he is replaceable for what is needed in this league. Building a squad and not just a strong XI (as shown in the SF with him in the team) is a priority imho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Grimes Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Heard some murmurings of some fairly big announcement(s) coming out of the club over the next week or two Not sure if it’s signing related or not but there’s stuff going on behind the scenes at the moment 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think somewhere along the line this knowledge has been ellaborated into ITK stuff and repackaged. Edited June 19, 2018 by d31 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that could be it I’m hoping this is packaged as a wider investment in the club Probably Cormack related 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodhull Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Tony Watt is also a risk for just about any Scottish team though, especially considering the relatively limited budgets most sides operate on. Has he managed to stay long enough at any club to be labeled “good” at them. Undoubtedly has some potential but it could be argued he hasn’t really delivered for any side he has played with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fast, can dribble, can finish with both feet, good in the air (especially when wiping out defenders) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gannonball Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Problem for anybody wanting Watt isn't really his ego or anything imo, football is just a job for him, nothing more. He has undoubted talent but its accepting that he won’t strive to improve and that it may upset other squad players. A team at the lower end of the table may accept this but I fear it would end up being detrimental to a team like Aberdeen. Its a great shame really as Scotland are crying out for another striker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember him being distinctly shite to average for Hearts a season or two back. The less he plays, the better he becomes, it seems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I'd be more than comfortable with Watt going to anyone in the Premiership or indeed, even United. He's one of those that are pretty pish but not pish enough to have the fans lambast the signing and willing to give him a chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
