All the best to McGhee and Leitchy. They turned the club around in a very short space of time and for that I am grateful. Unfortunately in these times of famine, Aberdeen are probably a bit better off than us and can afford a wee night out at Martin Wishart's whereas we can only muster a fish tea at Henry Healys!
My Dad told me he was an excellent right back, very fast, good with free kicks and apparently could give the ball a right good leathering. Remember, in those days the balls weighed about six stone!
RIP
Of course we have a smaller wage budget than the OF but it's all relative. I would think a much larger percentage of the Setanta TV money would be spent by us on wages as compared to the OF. The money that Celtic and Rangers get from Setanta is probably a drop in the ocean to them but it's our bread and butter.
I actually think it'll be the opposite. The OF will still be able to manage with the loss of the TV money, a lot of the other clubs will struggle big time without a large chunk of their revenue.
Went for A.N. Other (Ian McCall). Think he'd be within our price range and would do a decent job with the little budget he would have available. Probably still young enough to have decent ambitions and prove to people that he is a good manager.
There is a sizing guide on the club shop website but it would be nice to know whether it's suitable for the more rotund 'Well fan. Basically, is it tighter or looser than last seasons top? Over to you SCDave.....
