Breaking News - New Stadium and Training Facilities

[Jupiter]

What about naming rights?

They'll be lucky if they get a 2 or 3 hundred thousand a season, probably about the same as they get for shirt sponsorship.

[BogBrush1903]

Nobody will be bubbling. They just won’t go.

Whether you’re for or against the move, there are some unarguable facts surrounding the whole thing, which some posters will argue anyway be size they can’t help themselves

1- One man is responsible for the state of Pittodrie
2- He f*cks up every decision he makes with the club
3- He couldn’t give one single f*ck about training facilities
4- Out of town grounds in the UK generally fail. Ours will be further out with ****ter transport links than most
5- We can’t afford it

He’s gambling with the future of the club for his own ego. He’ll f*ck the whole thing up

That's pretty damn close to spot on.


I can help but think that a stadium move out there could finish the club. He's making a possibly fatal error of judgement on the behalf of a club that he's temporarily overseeing.

It won't finish us as such. We will just stumble along as usual.

What do people really think we will achieve having a new ground?

[Pacman1903]

It’s the biggest decision AFC will ever make. It’s absolute lunacy to let Milne make it.

Cant disagree with that in any way

. It’s absolute lunacy to let Milne make it.

Out of interest, what do you plan to do to not let Milne make it?

It’s got nothing to do with me. I think I’ve been inside Pittodrie less than 30 times in my life. What I can’t understand is why I seem more attached to the place than Aberdeen fans that have been going since they were kids. Even if you think we need a new ground, which btw I could definitely be persuaded about, despite preferring a Pittodrie refurb, Kingsford isn’t the answer. It’s a f*cking stupid idea. Mental. Even if Milne funded it himself & the design was great, it would still be a f*cking stupid idea.

I’m going to do nothing to change his mind. All you c*nts should though. It’s your local club

[afc1903mad]

So nothing to do with you and you want others to do something about it.

I expect Aberdeen fans to want the best for Aberdeen FC. If any Aberdeen fan places their trust in Milne, then they’re a f*cking spongo

we are trusting a man to make the biggest decision in our 116 year history when he:

- has chosen a series of dreadful managers.
- let Pittodrie become a dump
- ran up a crippling debt (he wants to do it again!)
- he wants “a strong Rangers”
- refused to get rid of the 11-1 voting system
- accepts mediocrity

Apart from that, I trust him.
