New Stadium Approved

October was when the work on the training facility was to officially commence, with a main contractor appointed.

All that has been done so far is site clearing, drainage, internal roads created etc etc.

Will be interesting to see, over the next few months, if the work on the training facility itself actually commences, or whether Stuarty hedges his bets, and waits till this WANKS review happens

I personally think they will push ahead with it.

There is surely no way that the end result of all this will be the club not being able to build on the site and having to return it to its previous condition.

 

Can you imagine what sort of knock on effect that would have for any future developments in and around the city? Any major developers would be staying well clear for a long time I’d imagine.

I have no recollection of that ever happening in Aberdeen, ever.

I’m sure Dave will be pleased you explained his own joke back to him.

Not as pleased as I’ll be once my wall is built.

[dave_min]

Are you really looking to get a wall built?

Certainly am.

Too preoccupied preventing the construction of a McDonalds in the Beverly Hills of Aberdeen.

Sadly, in just about every thread it has

Yeah even though I've been guilty of it, the similar sounding name shite should be relegated to the namesake hybrid thread of garbage.

Aye, Mark Twain is shite.

[Chewie37]

I find it really, really shite and wholly low brow

I'm VERY(MT™) surprised no one responded to that one

[Scotty_Toronto]

Not sure which thread would be best for this, and also not sure how to get this image to the two lads collecting photos, etc, for the new AFC Museum at Kingsford.

 

Finally managed to dig out the only (never before publicly seen) photo taken of those responsible for making the 'VICTORY!' banner that was seen hanging at the front of the St. Clair as it pulled into Aberdeen Harbour... 

 

[RUL]

Great pic. Feedback@@AFC.co.uk id imagine

[muttonhumper]

I recognise the guy far right, who is that

 

That is Scotty Toronto!

 

Edit:

 

I think...

[CityCentre]

Having had a good look at the site this morning, I'd say they are very close to having the site preparation phase of the job completed.

 

Not sure when the next phase of construction is due to begin but must be before the end of the year (I hope).

 

AFC must be quite pleased with how things are going so far.

[Chewie37]

That is Scotty Toronto!

 

Edit:

 

I think...

You sure it isn't LGIR?

Aye, Frankie will recognise him as it was Scotty's sig picture for years.

Having read this post, I can confirm you are not an engineer.

A different picture from the same day.

 

Tried to 'update' my signature photos after returning from the Sevco and Barnsley games but messed it up.

We all did on that day, Brother!

Aye, that's fit I meant. The one with the trophy.

 

Then the picture of you with that league cup a few years ago with the same mannie behind you 

[Scotty_Toronto]

 Yeah, that was well spotted by a 'hatter' years ago.

 

Planning to have by arm around him for the next one. 

 

(Hopefully this year!)
