Get the impression we won't see him. I would have thought the club would have announced something to say he was here. Furthermore, show photos of him in training. Pretty sure we'll be paying a % of his wage as well since Monday 1st. 

There was an article yesterday saying he still hadn't arrived but they were still hopeful he'd be available for the weekend.

Would think it's cutting it a bit tight now though.

Especially as the council seem to be grovelling with them to consider the Bouleydome option.....................which just about every dandy I know would gladly welcome ahead of Kingsford.

Yup whole matchday routine virtually unchanged,many fans make the match the central point of a whole day out.

Next time I want the fan of an irrelevant tinpot club to have an opinion on one of the most historical stadiums in Britain, I'll give you a shout.

Pittodrie is a fucking dump and you know it. It's no different to Cappielow/Somerset in that it's an absolute shitehole with no facilities or redeeming features, other than the fact its old.

You'll never really move forward while you remain there.

Driving to football is not good in any sense.

Of course not, but then again, the vast majority of fans at a game aren't going to the pub beforehand, so as long as you have easy, reliable, public transport/road links, its fine.

The ~1000 folk who want to pub it up, and refuse to use the facilities at the stadium to do so, aren't especially relevant when a stadium is going to be earning you millions away from actual football, as presumably Kingsford will be used for functions etc., during the week.

You've just compared two of the best grounds in Scotland to Pittodrie.

They're shit.

They're fine for wee day trips and "ooh look at this old fashioned stadium #AMF", but to actually use them week in, week out would be abysmal, never mind getting charged £20 to sit in 50 year old seats with no legroom and pish against a wall.

Folk wonder why kids prefer to sit at home and watch EPL games while simultaneously wanting us to keep using fucking dumps as grounds. Wild.

What a choice of comparison! I fuckin wish Pittodrie was like those two. Cappielow is top of the list for when we get back to stadiums for me, and Somerset is one of the most atmospheric grounds Ive been to, and a perfect away day given its proximity to pubs, takeaways and a train station.

Pish.

Cappielow you're either stuck in the main stand with zero legroom and massive pillars blocking your view, or stuck behind a goal with no shelter.

Somerset you're literally pishing against a wall and eating out a 3rd rate burger van.

They're fine for nostalgia/day trips, but it's not a surprise crowds drop when you're asking them to sit in a dump.

Pubs are not the only reason to discourage thousands of individuals from driving to a football ground, there are plenty of environmental reasons too.
