Kneetrembler Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 I am fucking gutted with that result on Wednesday. Rangers were far far better than us. The team seems to shrink when they play the Ugly Sisters. We just don't have enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised that McInnes hasn't been given further backing in terms of budget after rejecting chance to move twice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had a competent board then we’d be bringing in players now ahead of the Europa qualifiers. One of the few ways we can bridge the gap is by getting to the groups and if we’re serious about that we should have players bedded in before then, unlike last season. As it stands we’ll have Shinnie in midfield on his own. It doesn’t help that we’re now competing with Rangers, Hearts and Hibs for similar signings (Scottish players in England and players from lower down in the SPFL).It’s the best chance we’ll have in a long time to win some silverware with only one decent team ahead of us but the board are happy to keep the seat warm for der h*n and sip from their loving cup, literally and metaphorically. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much so.Although saying that, maybe that’s partly why we’re potentially looking at bringing in Devlin in now, despite him being injured till March.I’d also hope we’re already talking to Shinnie about extending too. 18 months left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussellAnderson Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 I'd seen something on the BBC website, but I just went to try and find it and all I could find was this, so I think I've been duped: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42806178 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anotherchance Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Providing he can agree terms he's signing for Preston today or tomorrow. Swap “Preston” for “Aberdeen” and you’re bang on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just assumed it would be the standard 200-300 grand that seems to always be quoted for these kinds of deals regardless of the player. Obviously the injury would have played a part in that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 A bizarre few days. I doubt he'll make an appearance before March, as well as needing time to get back up to speed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
