Hopefully means we are serious about recruiting a new, starting centre-forward. Pity the club is absolutely wedded to the English lower league market, though. Trying to think of the last person that was not either Irish or UK wise that was really successful at the club not that many - Heikkinen/Kjaer/Bisconti/Arnason - any others? I suppose looking at the lower league in England has got us Rooney/Lewis/Logan and obviously McGinn was on loan down there before we signed him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 3 hours ago, HunterAFC said: I think Football/Championship Manager has a lot to answer for when it comes to foreign markets. When it comes to SPL/Scottish Premiership the number of successful players brought in from outside the UK is tiny. We don't have the resources to effectively exploit all of Europe, we also can't offer an attractive enough package frankly. If we had a history of bringing in players and selling them on to English teams maybe. Add to that, as McInnes has said in the past, you have much greater confidence that UK based players will more easily integrate into the team. Our history of selling Uk sourced players isn’t fantastic either. Maybe we’re a bit shit at that bit of our asset management? Agree we can’t realistically cover all of Europe, or elsewhere, but some focused scouting in well chosen locations should be feasible and could pay for itself if we get good at the other bits too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betting competition Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Went along to the DNA thing and it was ok - bit rushed due to World CupDNA has over 5800 members which after VAT will give the manager 600k to add to budget.The other main news is there will only be two more signings - one a defender as very short in those positions 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 This is good. Heartening comments from Considine, too. https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/aberdeen-fc/donsnews/aberdeen-for-all/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Brendan Rogers thinks there can't be any racist undertones to Shay's abuse by Celtic fans because they came first in a survey of good fans. Sound. This has got me rattled this morning. Rogers saying that basically reinforces their behaviour and they'll continue to do it. Take a step back for once in your life and accept that some Celtic fans are c***s. Have some fucking humility ffs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Rogers toeing the party line just like Racist Ronnie before him. Rotten to the their victimised core. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Poor from rodgers.The fans can go back and forth about whether it’s racism or whether it’s because they just think Logan’s a fanny.However there is no denying the origin of this is the tonev incident. It is simply a fact and Rodgers would be best served to just not comment at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Scott Wright was your best player today, played on the right wing. Cosgrove looks absolutely dreadful, a proper cart horse who gives away more fouls than he has touches. You won't lose many headers with Devlin and McKenna. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosgrove to start every game against Celtic this season then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jute Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Thought Wright and Ferguson were best Dons players today. May took his goal well and looked better than he did on Wednesday which to be fair wasn’t difficult. Agree with comments above on Cosgrove. We desperately need to get another striker in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) I think May looks a bit fitter than he did last season on RedTV, but that might just be my eyes deceiving me. Edited July 8, 2018 by DrewDon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logie skid boys Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 good workout for both teams..wright impressed and may did look sharper than normal at last ....think Ferguson is going to be starting more games than we think ..signs look good with him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means that we will see nothing of him this season as he's left of the bench continually. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
