Pre-Season Friendlies


Recommended Posts


I like that we play these sort of places pre-season. It gives a chance for the local nippers to see the Dons and hopefully win by a decent margin helping to build the next generation of fans in the process

 

Yep, cos that philosophy paid off handsomely last season.....

5000 at Todders at the end of the season. 50% DOWN from the start of the season!!

The "local nippers" and their parents probably see Arbroath etc as more value for money.

Wonder if we will have our squad together this time or is this going to be another totally pointless exercise in giving trialists free training

 

Juan Legg from the Spanish Second Division will be over for trial....the striker, who has scored 4 goals in the last two seasons has been recommended to Craig Brown by an old contact he met on a Largs training course in 1951.

If the team performs on the park the fans will return. Higher attendances = higher profits = better squad. It's simple really

 

We've had a very bad 3 seasons so we're in a shit place right now. Have to believe that it's possible to turn it around. St Johnstone are in europe FFS so it can be done.

I think we already have our squad largely assembled for next season. :suicide:

 

I say 'we'... I probably shouldn't do that, given I'm on the hunt for a proper fitba team to support.

Right.

 

So your masterplan for the Dons would not include any attempts to get new fans interested on the club?

You're forgiven. I imagine that mouthwatering clash with the footballing heavyweight that is Fraserburgh will already be occupying you're mind. Apologies.

 

 

We playing Fraserburgh are we? You seem more clued up than me! Posting on an Aberdeen site, knowing who we have for pre season - you sure you've not turned your back on bigotry and child abuse and are now supporting the Dons?

Fair point. :laughing:

 

Not me lad, Celtic through and through. Would you not fancy a pre-season friendly in Amsterdam though?

No.

Is the correct answer. It will be full of fucking tims pretending to be irish and I fucking hate the tims even when they are not pretending to be irish the massive bag of horrible bigoted cunts they are. All the tims I have met have left me with the distinct impression that they are all just huns in horizontal stripes, the fuckers.
