Neil Simpson Benefit Match!

[ScottishJohn]

I also hope it is a bunch of unknown players for Man U. Can't stand seeing all the glory hunters piling into Pittodrie with their Man U tops.

[Karl Fletcher]

Fuck the glory hunters, lets just concentrate on Simmy

[Foster14]

Yes. Malmaison.

 

Why do you ask?

 

Incorrect. Tis the Marcliffe.

 

I got to see the Manchester United demands for what they had to have available for the pre-match feed. It was quite specific.

[Foster14]

Apologies actually, Boofon is correct, it is Malmaison.

 

Marcliffe didn't have enough rooms and Manchester United players don't share rooms...

[bruceg1978]

It's the Travel Lodge on North Anderson Drive. Just seen a big "Welcome Manchester United" sign on the front entrance.

[DandyDon KD]

I heard that there is going to be a 3 stand display at the game tonight is this true

[stand_free]

Apparently the biggest ever display at Pittodrie. Don't know what it entails.

 

Also just spied this as far as the legends playing goes...

 

Neil confirmed that Dougie Bell, Doug Rougvie, Steve Tosh and Brian Grant will take part in the game. Neil will not play but will kick the game off.

 

[King Street Loon]

It's the Menzies on Farburn Terrace.

They're coming in by Bond helicopters and staying there for convenience.

[tommo1903]

They are biding at my house.

[Big Man]

It's the Menzies on Farburn Terrace.

They're coming in by Bond helicopters and staying there for convenience.

 

Pish. It's a private charter plane. They're due to clear security at around 12.40.

 

My brother in-law is a security guard at the airport. He's had a briefing about it.

 

Apparently they're not getting any VIP treatment and have to clear through the terminal with the rest of us mongs normal people.

I heard that there is going to be a 3 stand display at the game tonight is this true

 

Yip, display will be in the RDS, South Stand and Merkland Stand

[The Boofon]

Apologies actually, Boofon is correct, it is Malmaison.

 

Marcliffe didn't have enough rooms and Manchester United players don't share rooms...

 

 

I'm never wrong.

[Bluto10]

In that case I expect AFC Chat to be quiet this afternoons with the multitude of glory hunters from here off stalking Rooney or whoever for autographs.

 

the mm is just round the corner from where i live, so i might just pop in and say hello.

[DandyDon KD]

Really annoying how people who don't like aberdeen are going to the game tonight, they are just going to watch the united stars. But yet there is lots of loyal aberdeen fans who dont have tickets and are trying to get.

I bet some of the folk who are going in the aberdeen end can't name any of our players never mind simmy

[Big Man]

the mm is just round the corner from where i live, so i might just pop in and say hello.

 

Aye, nip down and hay a gak - then report back to us with who's arriving.

 

Good luck agent X....

 

 

[stand_free]

Thing is though, the game was hardly a rapid sell out so it shouldn't have been too hard for any Dandies who wanted to go to get tickets

[DandyDon KD]

Apparently the display has been recked from the rain so they need volunteers to meet at pittodrie at 12:00 (sorry I know that it's a bit late but just found out)

[spamspamspam]

the mm is just round the corner from where i live, so i might just pop in and say hello.

 

You back living in blighty?

[Bluto10]

You back living in blighty?

[tup]

I take it you time travelled for that post where you said it's round the corner from where you live then?

[Bluto10]

I take it you time travelled for that post where you said it's round the corner from where you live then?

[tup]

the mm is just round the corner from where i live, so i might just pop in and say hello.

 

What are you talking about?

 

You've moved out remember?

 

To a different country!

 

If you are feeling homesick or having trouble adjusting to your new environment, or even accepting that you've moved, please pop into 'Tup's Corner' where we can wallow in nostalgia and pretend this friendly was taking place 10 years ago.

[Just Jack]

A few players have been confirmed by on the Manchester United website.

 

Vidic, Ferdinand, Scholes, Giggs, Dwight Yorke, Andy Cole, Quinton Fortune and Clayton Blackmore

[Bluto10]

eh!?

 

yorke?

 

fortune?

 

 

eh??

 

clayton blackmore ? ? ? ? ? ? ???????????? ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

[sooth_stander]

Maybe not the right time or place to say this, but I will do anyway.

 

Simmy was in the Scotland squad for the international the wednesday after THAT Rangers game. The Sun editorial came out with that disgraceful attack of AFC in general and Neil in particular on the monday. Probably unconnected to that, but hours later, he was out of the international squad. Injured, apparently/allegedly. Never was selected again for his country.

 

Never let the it be forgotten how the SFA treated our legend.

[K-9]

Brian Grant starts for Aberdeen tonight. Simpson will take kick off but won't play

[K-9]

Dougie Bell, Doug Rougvie and Stevie Tosh play some part aswell

[Dynamo]

Will Ian Durrant be putting in a guest appearance?

[Kilkito]

Took the harbour turn off at 5 o'clock and still not past the Ford showrooms, traffic is unbelievable, I'll be lucky to see Simmy kick off at this rate.

[MMG]

What time is ko?
