If we're so skint why have we just got Rob McLean on RedTV. Why not let Waldorf and Statler carry on for pennies? It's only away games. That two would do it for petrol money if it meant they could suck up to the club. How much are AFC going to be paying Rob McLean. ? And how much were the previous guys getting ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm certain it's no coincidence we've not heard from bogbrush in days and then he's in giving the other negative boy greenies in minutes. There's no such thing as coincidence MR...but I think you'll find that the club has just released a statement which is what we're responding to 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previous guys are still on the books A96.. They're doing the home matches.. But we've got McLean doing the aways and Derek Rae turning up occasionally too... They won't be on under 30k which are supposedly the poor souls we're doing our best to protect 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I hope Rob McLean gets with the program sharpish because i don't pay red tv for impartial commentary. I'll concede that i would occasionally like to know what's going on in the game though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukDukGoose Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 (edited) I'm sure we would have been listening to him complain about the amateurish production on his illegal stream if we used the same presentation we used last season.

d31 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 (edited) . Rob Maclean is obviously new but from unemployment i'd suspect he's on a few hundred quid per game Edited July 23, 2020 by d31 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I pointed out we've magically upped the expected capacity after hitting that number of season tickets. Dinna be so precious. It's alrite to question what the club is doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question the club handing out a new deal when the manager isn't reaching expectations. Question the club when we get a doing at home from relegation candidates. Let's not question the club when they've been very transparent from the first moment and are trying to raise the necessary funds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your opinion, and probably most others on here, they are being transparent. Not all of us are so convinced about that transparency. Therefore, we have the right to question just like you have the right to treat everything you read from the club as gospel. But most on here were completely taken in by a Vancouver_Don. Let that be a lesson in not accepting things at face value. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about Brophy but correct about looking bad. If you can't pay the players presently in the timely fashion that was agreed on their contracts then new players or new hires in background staff shouldn't be coming in. In the first instance, you should be looking after your current employees. I don't know of many businesses that hire when they're claiming financial hardship. I think they've added the two new RedTV commentators and a finance guy to my knowledge in the last couple of weeks whilst pleading the fans give them money for nothing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodhull Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Given that clubs don’t usually disclose the wages of employees publicly doesn’t that mean none of them are transparent and so Aberdeen are acting pretty normally? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure it’s part of the wage cut agreement that a new player only comes in if required because a player has left. Pretty basic to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
