I wonder how much we can rely on that going forward. A lot of it must be oil sector. The industry is not a great shape. You used to look for the oil price bouncing back but with the sentiment against new development and a government in bed with the Greens it's not so simple any more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Jokes on Hibs, his new contract includes a "can leave for free at any time for an American club" clause. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better luck next time. He'll be on a fair whack now so fair play to him. 47 minutes ago, SDG2 said: X 34 minutes ago, The Grass Is Greener. said: The Dons have been played here.

starryfish Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Decent player Boyle but quite often seems to go missing in matches against the bigger teams, don't think I've seen him excel at Pittodrie before, not sure how well he has done at Parkhead/Ibrox/Tynecastle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Was never worth £500k to us so a bullet dodged in that respect. Hopefully move on to a different target now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only seen snippets of him, mainly at Pittodrie where Andrew Considine dealt with him fairly well and Jack McKenzie did ok against him last season too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Business entertaining expenditure isn't tax deductible. Sponsorship is. But it only reduces your tax by 19% of the amount it reduces your profits by. As tax dodges go, it's pretty shit but better than a baxendale-walker EBT. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game of throw-ins Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) I can assure you that nobody, and I mean absolutely nobody, not a single person, sponsors or donates money to Aberdeen Football Club with the primary motive of saving tax.

It's football, clubs make offers for other players all the time. Aberdeen were entitled to bid for Boyle, Hibs were entitled to say no. Same as Hibs were entitled to ask about Kerr of St Johnsone and the fermers were entitled to knock them back. We all move on . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Doesn't matter - we've got a faster and more technically wide player on our books. His name's Funso......... (ok his finishing still needs work) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
