I've always wondered what the furore, protest marches and riots must have been like in Westhill 10 years ago. Can imagine it would have been unstoppable carnage as the outraged locals who only care for the aesthetics and environment of Westhill marched to the council offices to put their local representatives heids on pikes.
Or were they just proud of coming 3rd?

Aye Pacman, good summary. However, you did't mention the soulless sheds of the new Kingshill Business Park being built directly across from the proposed Kingsford site. The NIMBY's have absolutely no case with respect to aesthetics due to all the other developments in Westhill over the last 15 years. No, their only gripe is traffic and parking. It would be f@cking pathetic and embarrassing for the whole North-East if the development is kb'd on those grounds alone. There are solutions to the traffic and parking (for only 20 days in each year for f@ck sake) challenges - just need people to do their jobs.
If anyone needed any further convincing that this development has to go ahead just watch McInnes' Aurora launch interview. Watch Milne's and Yule's also then you'll get your answers. Good editorial in the Presser yesterday - they are on board now. I'll do my bit and write to Andrew Bowie, Alastair Burnett, Ron McKail and Alistair McKelvie telling them to get a f@cking grip and support the development.

JUST BACK FAE THE GAME
Ferencvaros won 2-0
Build anything like this stadium and there will be few if any complaints.
Good points include beer and decent food before during and after the game.
The chance to let the crowd disperse while you are having a pint and a moan about the referree is a good one.
All food and drink payable only by your Fradi card.
Top ups to the card available from the many pretty girs scattered about the place.
Crap kick off time so the crowd was only about 8000
It was a good atmosphere though, 2oo-300 behind the goal made a racket, mind you the Hungarians know a thing or two about acoustics.
Half an hour after the final whistle I'm home
No underground metro in Aberdeen of course but the transport will be so very important.
Personally I'm hoping for a bus laid on from the Mazada bar.
Just before anyone mentions rules
