Breaking News - New Stadium and Training Facilities

[Pacman1903]

Yes for now.
However they definitely have a better chance going forward.

Your forgetting we are where we are because of McInness and Docherty.
If and when they leave (only likely to be earlier with fans and councils wanting to hold the club back) we will be less likely to attract the players we have done in the last few years.
You guys are being deluded and if you get your way, remember who was fighting to progress forward and who wanted to hold the club back.

Training facilities could still leave us with another McGhee. Derek and Doc have made us good under the poor facilities we have now. Do you think their management skill will improve because they are comfy and in one place all the time

Aberdeen as a place is miles away from civilization and as Mason says facilities or not, cash and the arsedness of living there are huge factors and way more important than facilities

Stop living in the past.
There's an option presented now to do just that.

Yes there's an option.
But it's conditional on building a crap stadium in a crap location and destroying our traditional home.

Build the training ground, nobody's arguing against that.
Preferably not at Kingsford though.

Most sensible fans * , should now realise that this present board, - who had not the foresight to predict the current problems with transport ( despite being informed by multitudes), should be looked on as totally incompetent to manage a 50 million debt.

the fact that Milne couldn't manage a 10 million debt , should have been evidence enough.

The longer the delay in not communicating with the fans ( which is something afc are good at tbf) will only make situation worse.

_{* Think I can get a way with the 'most fans' assumption here}.

I don't think their skills will necessarily improve, but having a facility will give them more option.
No more, sorry lads, get off the pitch, some students have booked it.
DM said before they wanted to continue i.e. Training to fine tune some tactics, but couldn't.
Having facilities might also prolong keeping players, manage,net, youth etc, rather than the attraction elsewhere.

I see it now, a young goalkeeper, training with Aberdeen and Rangers.
Both are keen to take him on.
Aberdeen are are much better fit location wise, but the father goes on about how impressive their training facilities are.
A future potential player lost because of our ****e facilities.

Never mind, you lot think we're fine as we are.

What a NIMBY statement.
Or even a training ground there for you.
Pretty sad really.

Pish. Celtic and Sevco are losing players to down south. **** all to do with facilities.

Are you advocating the board should go?
Yule and Cormack too?

Brown, Skinner, Fraser, Buchan, Jack and Welsh?

Who do you think will want to come in and replace them?

It's name push, it's reality.
A loon, on our doorstep, being lured away with the fathers reasoning being the training facilities.

That's reality, and that's what your moaning for.

Sorry no idea what your meaning but if a faither says he's moving his laddie to rangers instead of Aberdeen...it's nowt to do with facilities.
