mcdougall(4) Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 If it does, then they would be as well redeveloping Pittodrie, as the reasons that they can't afford it would then be moot points. No it doesn't make the additional cost of re-development a moot point at all. Link to comment

Shinniesta Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 A mortgageNaming rightsAdditional revenueSale of current Pittodrie site (same way as any other new stadium is funded)You can add the imminent sale of McKenna and future sale of Lewis Ferguson to your list of funding towards this project. If McKenna goes for somewhere near what the club seem to think he is worth (which is probably somewhere around £6m or £7m with add ons) then McInnes will be lucky to see around £1m of that to replace him and the rest will go on the stadium project. I'd imagine the club also see Ferguson as one who could potentially be sold to an English club for a relatively high fee in a couple of years time of he keeps performing the way he has so far. That money would surely go towards the stadium too. Link to comment

V for Vendetta Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Pittodrie is our home. It has been a massive part of all our lives.Enshrined in history. Situated within walking distance of the city centre, in the heart of our city. There's no other place like it.Stopped reading there.Sounds a bit like some of the arguments for Hampden. Which is clearly also shite. Link to comment
