The Famous Aberdeen - Season 2022/23


Guest

Scored a belter against Accies and a tidy goal against Motherwell earlier in the season but other than that I don’t think there is much to justify why we’d want to keep him on.

We’re not as good without Rooney even if people won’t admit it.

Tbf, he’s earned the wrath he’s getting from the stands 

We are apparently paying an outrageous amount towards his £40,000 per week wages 

Thought I read 30,000, but even if so it doesn’t affect your point.

We're not as good without the version of Rooney we had from 2014-2016 (2017 at a push).

I think we cut him loose at the right time.

ps  nothing to do with the argument, but his penalty in Salford's play-off shootout on Sunday was a shocker - and I think he'll miss the Wembley final as a consequence.

 I usually think anybody over the age of 18 who drinks mad dog is a wrong’n but found this quite amusing.

 

So the vast majority of Glaswegians then?

I said it in the semi final thread but I parked on the Celtic side of Hampden that day and had to walk through the Celtic fans to the game.

The discarded booze along the road to Hampden said a lot about Celtic as a general support.

Depends what you class as outrageous. It's not going to be anything over £5k though.

Have heard plenty stories but not too hard to believe loan fee + contribution adds to more than £5k. 

One version I heard was that it was a flat fee (around £300k) at start of season and that was reason we didnt put him back in January.

Frank is talking about the wage.

I'm far more inclined to believe the flat fee story.
