    Thanks, I was aware of only some of these - that’s my next chance I get in Aberdeen to explore planned!

    I see a big spiel today on the new stadium in the P&J. Cormack trying to put pressure on the cooncil as to how much a stadium in the city centre is worth to the local economy. Latest estimate to build the stadium is £80M (which really means £100M+ once you factor in the usual construction overspend) for a 16-18,000 stadium. Utter utter madness to be spending that sort of money on a sh1tty little stadium like that. Unless Cormack is going to fund the majority of it himself (which he won't) thankfully it is never going to happen, as the cooncil won't have the money either.

    We just need to bite the bullet and come up with the best plan to spend money to do up Pittodrie on the basis we are there for the forseeable future (thankfully)

    Pretty insane bullcrap isn't it. Wicks will be in for some bonus if he pulls that scam off. We have some amount of charlatans running this club IMO.

    They've missed opportunity after opportunity to acquire adjacent land.
    But even so , they could still part rebuild Pittodrie , if that's the capacity they're looking at.

    redo old stands at Pittodrie & find a new chairman , somehow

    I'm open to all suggestions, provided we stay at Pittodrie.

    Perhaps the P&J had run out of total b0ll0cks to print about Union Street so went back to the fantasy beach plan.
