Willo Flood leaves club

[RUL]

Sun reporting he's going to Dundee utd. Been a good player for us overall. Think he'd be a pretty decent signing for utd at that level.

[BWG]

If we get a fee then that's marvellous business by us.

[Tord31]

If we get a fee bring it on.

 

If we let him go without paying him off i'd be fairly neutral but tbh would prefer us to keep him this season and let him see out his contract.

 

I would certainly be against paying up his contract, or a portion of it, to release him

Depends what we're doing with the rest.

If it goes towards a Greg Stewart type of signing then its a couple of hundred quid a week worth paying.

I can't imagine Willo Flood leaving Aberdeen will provide us with the £1million we would need for that

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

Great first season. Shite second season. Alright third season when he wasn't injured.

 

Wouldn't be bothered if he left. Overall he's had a good 3 years. All the best and adios.

[sooth_stander]

There's going to be games where he'll be needed; sunday league matches after thursday Euro games, for example, hopefully

 

All depends if his contract is heavily appearance based, which it sounds like it is, hence his unrest. But would reckon he could do better than Utd; surely Killie, Hamilton, M'well etc etc would be better options for him

 

Would free up wages for Slater, I suppose

I'd rather use Storie. Or Storey? Or Story?? Or.... the young cunt that plays in midfield

Doesn't he still live near or in Dundee though? Plus, United will be able to pay more than those three teams. Motherwell just offered contracts to some of their senior players that were a 1/3 of their previous contract after all...

Never said it would, some of his wages might help though.

[Guest RosemountRed]

Hopefully Smith goes on lone there too. Want them and Hibs back up.

[Scotty_Toronto]

Not leaving till after Thursday's Europa game.

 

Maybe a wee farewell/thank you/all the best run out in that game.

My phone spazzed and I accidentally downvoted you. Apologies.

Letting Willo go would be a mistake.

 

Mark my words.

I also -1'd it to compound your mistake.

The reports suggest we would terminate is contract early. Therefore no fee.

[King Street Loon]

If Willo does go he will go with my best wishes (which I'm sure will please him no end).

He improved a midfield that was on it's knees, but sadly the personal differences between him and Jack affected performances of both players and there is no chance of McInnes selling Jack unless a ridiculous offer comes in.

All the best Willo.

[dave_min]

I heard that Hearts are in for him.

[hopeisimportant]

So, if he goes who do we have for CM? McLean, Jack, Storie? Is that it?!

 

Shinnie can cover and the new boy O'Conner although I believe he is primarily a defender. I can only hope another good CM is coming in!

[King Street Loon]

The Canadian Branch of Aberdeen fans will go into meltdown if that's the case.

Will only enhance Hearts in their quest to catch us.

It'll increase season ticket sales too.

[CalgaryDon]

I'll be disappointed tp see Flood leave. think he is a good player and like 360 can see this being a mistake . Really depends who we bring in as his replacement.

Cool. Not an issue.

[boboisared]

Flood is great to have in the games where we need win the ball back as quick as we can. We only really need that in 4 games (6 if we meet the Tims in the cup) so I'm happy for him to go if he wants to move.

 

He lacks patience too, so sometimes you will see him run past our striker to chase down the opposing teams defenders/goalkeeper. Although some people think it's great and he's working hard, it leaves a massive gap in the middle of the park as he doesn't pull his team mate back before he does it. We're looking to get to the group stages in Europe and if we have someone in the middle of the park doing that then we'd be in trouble.

 

I appreciate everything he's done here but a change is probably best for all concerned.

[BWG]

Utd splashing cash on lower league players again so a small fee for Flood isn't all that ridiculous.

 

I personally think we've outgrown Flood and it's time for him to go. I can't really think of a game from the last couple of seasons where I've been glad to have had him in the squad. He'd probably do well in the Championship where his tireless running about wouldn't be punished as much as it is in the top flight. It's his kind of football.

With the hearts cup game being a perfect example of this...

I'm now going to up and downvote everything in a desperate attempt to find inner peace.

I agree with this, Flood and AFC have outgrown each other to put it politely.

 

I really appreciated all his hard work, and there was a lot of it, but its good to have some change and I think Flood and Jack proved not to be the right mix on the pitch.

 

I'm hopeful another CM is top of Deek's list now.

In what respect? I can barely mind that game and was watching it during a surprise party at my mates flat.
