Breaking News - New Stadium and Training Facilities

In reality it would be very difficult for the Council to refuse this application and leave with any credibility...

but then again, this is a local authority we are talking about.

Logic dictates that the plan will get approval...

my only fear is, this is a local authority we are talking about.

There's continuing meetings and many objections .

The cooncil will be sympathetic I'm telling you now this will go ahead .

I was involved with the building of Westhill during the 70s with Stewart Milne building homes in the green belt area all these residents that are moaning were not moaning about that houses being built with next to no character blotting our green landscape and ruining our trail runs for cycling and running . but they are moaning now.

Maybe they do not want us unruly working class football fans in their plush area.
Who knows.

Yet here we are 20 years later.

The south stand hasn't sunk.

The main stand is still being used.

The capacity hasn't been cut.

Stands haven't been closed.

European football is still being played.

Where do you stay like? Another teuchter?

There's one thing I'd like to add .

I used to go to the Richard Donald stand with my builder friend he was saying there's been movement as you could see cracks .

Now I don't know this for sure sometimes once things get built there's often some movement for settling I'm led to believe.
But I'm no builder .

Does anyone have a break down of the maintenance costs of Pittodrie?

Exactly the point I made before. All this stuff about AFC does not belong in Kingsford... Westhill does not belong in Westhill.

The south stand hasn't sunk. You have evidence of this, else another falacy?

The main stand is still being used.

The capacity hasn't been cut. What was the Pittodrie capacity 20 years ago and what is it now?

Stands haven't been closed.Not yet, but there has been restrictions imposed

European football is still being played.This has been answered before. At present we can play in the qualifying rounds, but if we were successful in reaching the group stages, we would not meet the UEFA guidelines

Most points have been debunked

It's just as if Milne is the great new saviour and everything he says is golden and going to happen....

I will judge him on what he has done and not what he says he will do.

By "Teuchter" what do you mean?

People who live outside Aberdeen City?

If it wasn't for these folk, teuchters if you will, our average home crowds would be Dundee United/Killie-esque.

[Mason89]

By "Teuchter" what do you mean?

Anyone who lives north of Balloch
