Where Are They Now

[strachanmcgheegoal]

So who would have thought cancelling your reknowned junior set up and giving Paul Harley the cash to spunk on mercenary journeymen could go so spectacularly wrong. Then hiring a visionary, no poaching at ridiculous cost a random like Ray McKinnon could go so badly?

 

Apart from me. Obviously.

[Betty Swallicks]

I for one am shocked.

Got to be an option for us.

Comparable history to McInnes when he arrived ie did adecent job at a lesser Scottish side then not so great in England.

 

He knows the club and he's not a hun so his stock is higher than Deeks when he arrived.

It doesn't matter what his stock is now compared to when McInnes joined Aberdeen, that was years ago.

 

What matters is whether he is a better manager than McInnes now.

 

I don't think he is.

Myles Anderson still plying a trade in football despite managing about 4 first team games in his career.

 

Great effort

Fair play to Hector for playing the game but no way should clubs be allowed to just bank talent like that.  The only time half of these cunts will ever set foot in Stamford Bridge and the Etihad is to sign their contract.

[aberdeen1970]

watched him playing for Sheffield Wednesday the other week.  He's got full dreads nowadays

[Poodler]

Didcot!!!

 

Heard that somewhere before...

A quick Google says he's one of 41 players out on loan from Chelsea. Ridiculous.

Scott Severin - North Alwyn. Flew out on the chopper that I went home on.

Worked wi him on 704 about 4 years ago. I asked him how he enjoyed his screamer of a goal against the huns at Pittodrie, there was huns in our company, and he gave a huge smile.... The huns didna say much to that.

Mind when he threw his gloves to us at ft Ibrox?

 

Haha. Think it was a 1-1 draw.

[TheRock]

67. Doesn't even seem like that long ago he was playing for us, although I guess he was into his 40s by then. Sure I remember reading he'd go to bed with his goalie gloves on but now that I write it, was surely a joke to emphasise his dedication.

[RUL]

I think he was genuinely mental so wouldn't surprise me if he went to bed wearing full GK kit never mind gloves.

I always remember watching a game at Easter Road where Woodthorpe played. It poured with rain, sure Theo got sent off and years later watching Jamie McAllister I got horrific flashbacks to watching Woodthorpe play. He was no Davie Robertson.

[Dandyesque]

I remember Woodthorpe scoring a screamer or two early in his time here and thinking he might be great. He wasn't. In retrospect, we'd been spoiled. At least he was a left back

[Tord31]

which manager signed woodthorpe? was he around at time of relegation playoffs, league cup win etc?

 

wiki has him at Dons three years 94-97

Scott Severin - North Alwyn. Flew out on the chopper that I went home on.

 

One of Tango's first signings, iirc. 

 

"Fuck me... that's cracking!" I thought... "Here come the good times!"

 

Later he'd sign guys like Bus, Byrne, McNamara, Duff, Clangers, Kerr, Wright, Bossu, The Invisible Man, and the aforementioned king o the shitbags Sone Aluko.

 

He also resigned Derek Young... assuring us Derek was only going to be used as cover after the pretty significant "WHAT IN THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING, YOU DAFT ORANGE CUNT" backlash.  Derek would go on to play 'only as cover' in almost a hundred games in his second spell. So that was brilliant. 

 

Oh, and one of Tango's last acts was to extend Darren Mackie's contract by three years. So that was brilliant inna. Well, it was if you were Darren Mackie, I suppose. 

 

Anyway, Severin.  Great player.

Was a strange one... he seemed hate most of the 'soft' Aberdonians (particularly Considine, who he used to rip the pish out of!), but I remember he quite liked Mackie, as he was one those who were 'good to have around the place' or had 'a bit of the patter'.

[ericblack4boss]

The oaf maybe did sign Severin but the deal was actually done by Pele, he mustve had some sober days he tried to get Robson too.

I'm fairly sure it was God himself.

Rory McArdle relegated with Scunthorpe. The fans want to raise funds to pay off his contract.
