Breaking News - New Stadium and Training Facilities

[AiberdonianAce]

What are the odds that we all of a sudden "start playing to our potential" now?

[Devanha Red]

This

This.

[Red Zone]

Still never going to happen

Completely agree.

Who in their right mind will invest £40M or so of their money (after £15M from selling Pittodrie) for a club that will never produce a financial return on that investment, on a 20,000 stadium that at best will only be three quarters full in 90% of the matches that are played in a championship that they will finish something like 20-30 points behind the winners???

Let's just stay at Pittodrie and do a Hibs and redevelop the stadium as and when we can afford it after selling players

Good question.

Possibly, certainly the youth team plan to.

[Devanha Red]

Possibly, certainly the youth team plan to.

That's good.

[macattack]

They will be training on it tomorrow.

Cheers mad but crikey training on new pitches when they are not used to it bit risky aint it ? 24 hours before a game!

[Devanha Red]

They will be training on it tomorrow.

Any idea what hours?

I found some of it quite amusing.

Milne to McInnes: “Now the facilities is delivered, the expectations is greater (win the league, Europa League group stages each season) on a reduced budget

Ferguson to Milne: “ You need to get your wallet out, you can’t take all your millions to the grave”

I saw the bit when Ferguson said to Milne to get his wallet out which was funny but I missed the bit where McInnes said the expectation will be greater on a reduced budget.

For starters I can’t see us improving if we are signing players of the calibre of Curtis Main because we have a shiny new training ground.

And why is the budget going to be reduced?

Milne hasn’t put his hand in his pocket for the training ground and the club aren’t in debt so why is there going to be less money for players?
