Always thought he had a Celticy streak in him. Disappointing. How can I hate him? Some of my best friends were average footballers. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Shay was a complete game changer when he came in. After years of playing centre halves and midfielders out of position, we finally had a proper full back. When we signed him permanently, along with Mcginn signing a new deal, it was a sign that things had changed and we werent going to lose our best players every summer as we had previously with players like Fraser. Shay himself was solid for years, but his attitude, and the way he plays the game without fear, its entertaining, even when we are playing poorly. Right time to go, but I will miss him. Re Brooner, he needs to front up to how he acted at the Tonev incident and apologise, before I can even begin accepting his signing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in an interview during pre season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Gordon Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Home & away are OK, not too keen on the third strip though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if Brown was to come out now and apologise, 7 years after the incident, it will purely be viewed as insincere lip service on the back of him signing for Aberdeen?

A mealy mouthed shifting of blame would be pretty poor, but better than nothing. A total silence would be the worst option imo. Others may disagree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly in my opinion it should be the first thing he does when he steps foot in the door. Fingers crossed, as I think he could be a real asset for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fingers crossed, as I think he could be a real asset for us. He doesn't really need to say much and I don't even thinking he needs to say the word sorry. Just something like I was younger, and maybe a little bit naive, I took Tonev's word for it and felt at that point it was the right thing to do. Retrospectively I should have left it to the club to address and all I can do is work to support the fight against racism in football. bla bla. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodhull Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Interesting to see if he gets any more of a chance next season. Combination of the numbers we have in that position and Mcinnes not being overly willing to take risks with players from the youth system certainly limited his chances. Would imagine this is his last deal if he doesn't make the breakthrough this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would expect all the youths to get extensions (if they want them) so that Glass can assess them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
