    The goal machine that couldn’t get a game for St.Johnstone and can only make the bench with us?

    I’m not against it but we’re maybe we asking a lot of the new coaching team.


    Ach sod it, we should be asking a lot.
    They’ve got 6 months to turn him into a £3,000,000 player.






    That’s the great thing with forwards, a few goals and you can cash in.
    Imagine getting money for Cosgrove.

    Oor Sam is not exactly setting the heather alight at the foot of the Championship. Been available for 14 games for Birmingham, played a total of 88 minutes without starting a game and needless to say yet to score a goal. Looking a crazy good deal for us

    I'd be amazed if we signed Gauld, even if he was out of contract. By all accounts he's been doing really well in the past season or so and likely wanted by other, more attractive clubs than ourselves. If we could get him, it would be great though - he's the type of player we need. Hopefully Hedges will stay and we can bring in someone else on his wavelength (similar to what Wright was).

    No thanks to Hendry though - if we're looking to challenge for trophies he's nowhere near the level we need to be looking at. Having said that he's probably contributed more than Kamberi (who I don't think is suited to playing as a lone striker to be fair to him) and Hornby (what's happened to him anyway?!) I hope Anderson gets a new contract and is given the chance to show what he can do in a different set up, and I'm still hoping Griffiths joins, alongside some up and coming English superstar that we've never heard of!

    I don't think we'd be signing Hendry to be our main striker. What I've saw of him I thought he has looked pretty promising. Whilst mcinnes would use a striker like that as our first choice week in and week out, I'd like to think he'd be a decent option to bring on depending on how the game is going.

    Aye checked just now and when he does play he is normally brought on with 5 or 6 minutes left to go, last night he played for less than a minute
    Best contribution he made to the dons ever was when we left, getting the cash we did get for him was a brilliant bit of business by the club and although I hate to admit it also by McHunnis so I guess thanks for that.

    I would take a punt on the lad Hendry but he needs a proven goal scorer alongside him so for that we could have Griffiths if the rumours are true. Them two up front could be something worth considering.
    But hey ho who am I or who are we to suggest anything.
    I am sure Glass, Brown and Russell already have their plan and their target signings, and like has been said many times this summer transfer window is going to be very interesting.

    Starting to feel like a good time to be a dandy right now.
    Looking forward to the future with a good level of optimism and confidence.

    I heard Aberdeen are about to fight it out with the saintiees for the signature of pee paw. Saintees desperate to get him in a pre contract ASAP but the lure of a return back to pittodrie could be too much.

    The good thing about us that we have absolutely no debt and will be spending to strengthen as we aim to win the league. You lot will need to sell to stay above water. Get the arm bands and floats out.

    We are a big club, MASSIVE. Money ain’t a problem. But you have a point and we need to be careful. I wish all Scottish clubs well in Europe and hopefully we repeat that European run this time in the champions league. I would hate for the company to go into admin and get itself into bother again, some stability rather than another replacement would be preferable. The banter years were fun but I prefer being the champions of the top tier!

    I honestly think aberdeen will do well, but you need to stick to your level of target here. Scott brown, Peter Pawlett, Scott Allan? A loan of one or two rangers colts could be an idea, taking points off the tims will benefit us both and a club like aberdeen needs to aim for more than just the top 6. A Scottish cup win is long overdue, it must be comjng up for 30 years since your last major trophy (and nearly a decade since you win the Mickey Mouse cup). That is not acceptable, as Del found out! I think aberdeen will make a real push for second place and a cup final.

    So far your history consists of 1 major trophy. So dinna come on here with a superiority complex.
