BillShankly Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 As important as new signings are at this stage of the season, we should also be looking to get Shinnie signed up as a priority. Contract is up next summer. At his age, he might be thinking its time to head for England and give it a crack but might be tempted to stay with a good offer. Even if he does want to go, ask him to sign an extension to ensure we get some kind of cash for him when/if he goes. Dont think anyone could complain if part of the AberDNA cash was spent on this.

V for Vendetta Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 This DNA cash is getting more and more like a Hun war chest. Seemingly endless number of ways fans expect us to spend the same money. Link to comment

V for Vendetta Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 A recognised signing would be a huge start imo.Of course we want good signings. I'm just a bit bemused by the constant reference to DNA cash as if it's magical in some way. It increases the budget a bit which is great but I doubt Deek keeps it in a special biscuit tin with a big sticky plaster on the lid with "DNA" scrawled on it. Link to comment
HairyPie Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 How much money is it? How many have signed up? Link to comment
looksgoodinred Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 How much money is it? How many have signed up? the club announced yesterday over 5,500 have signed up. £12 or £18 per month, paid monthly or annually. Link to comment
Don Fonte Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 the club announced yesterday over 5,500 have signed up. £12 or £18 per month, paid monthly or annually. What are the costs associated with it, including loss of revenue for some of the benefits? How is it split between first team, youth academy, sports science etc? Link to comment
Tord31 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 over a million quid of turnover added difficult to quantify costs for a ney figure Link to comment

Dandyesque Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Cant imagine the admin costs would amount to more than 20 percent or so Link to comment
shut up meg Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Cant imagine the admin costs would amount to more than 20 percent or so 15% saving on season tickets and 5000 shirts would probably cost a fair bit, possibly over 20%. Link to comment
Ernie McCracken Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 This DNA cash is getting more and more like a Hun war chest. Seemingly endless number of ways fans expect us to spend the same money.The fact that we're only likely to have one round in Europe this year will likely eat up a chunk of the DNA cash.

King Street Loon Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 With regards to DNA, I think the club need to make a decent signing, if possible using the money or I think people will cancel their DD at the end of the year signed up for. Link to comment

Absolutely. If they want fans to continue to do this season on season then they need to make it look like it was spent wisely.Still plenty of time yet though. Link to comment

Tord31 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Charlie Nic style signingThat's what we need. Ferguson, Forrester, Gleeson and failed bids for Baldwin and Naismith are not going to cut it. Link to comment
