  1. If we bought him, he publicly apologised, took out a two page spread in the P&J outlining all the different ways Huns are pricks, then did a penitent walk of shame from Union St to Pittodrie, I’d consider it Other than that, the Rat can go take a right good fuck to himself

  2. Actually, I'm okay with the loan on one condition. If Cormack has information that Cormack park is built atop a disused mineshaft, accessible via trapdoor right at the front door. Upon signing, he's photographed outside, with a big cheeser underneath his Hun moustache, and invited back into the building. Cormack has switched the trap door for a bottomless rug, which Miovski steps on, falling 76 metres. He survives the fall, but after three days of screaming, he whispers a final "I'm sorry", before passing on to the place one floor below hell, reserved for all other Huns. The Dons report him missing after a week, and with nobody able to trace him, they are given a full refund of his wages to date and compensation of £100,000 from the Huns for their player's breaking of contract. Fourteen years later, the great grandson of Neil Simpson is taking a walk round the proposed site of a new underground training pitch, when he stands on Miovski's corpse, snapping his festering shin in two.

  3. There were (some) good times and (many) bad times under Milne's stewardship. He'd probably argue that is the case for most clubs and most chairmen but even if you were minded to even listen to that argument for a minute, his decision to veto the change to the 11-1 vote requirements when we had the chance to do so was unforgivable.

  4. From the article: The 23-year-old - one of the fastest players in Scotland... I like Keskinen. We have not used him properly and haven't appeared to make any real effort to develop him into a position or consistent place in the team. The farce against AEK Athens summed up how he was being managed. But he works his arse off. He may not be Usian Bolt but DOES have pace, and does go past players on the touch line. He's very much a Robinson-type player too so unless there's some behind-the-scenes issue with him I'd expect Robinson would want him to stay. I don't think we should be emptying the entire starting XI. There's a few players with potential and Keskinen is definitely one of them.

  6. Lot's of people getting bent out of shape over the Miovski story. He went to Girona and wasn't getting a game so wanted a move. Reality is that nobody else was willing to pay for him and his wage demands apart from the Huns. They're probably paying in installments anyway and will inevitably go bust before they have made the final payment. Ok so he can't play against them if he's on loan but as much as it pains me, we're not competing with that lot at the moment anyway. We're struggling to get into the top half so if signing Bojan gets us out of that hole till we can afford better then so be it. I'm sure if we did take him and he started scoring goals he'd quickly be forgiven. Chances are he could sign for Hearts or Hibs on loan and do very well and we'd all look a bit stupid for foaming at the mouth about it. He used them to get out of Spain and play football. We can use him to get better and it could be win win

  7. Is there a drop off on quality though?Or is it people just being snobbish, because the three stripes/ Adidas logo aren't on it for the Liam Gallagher wannabes amongst our support. Both manufacturers get these kits made in far eastern swearshops for pennies and then sold for stupid prices. I doubt there will be much difference in the selling price, but hopefully I am wrong. I used to buy tops for both my loons, but I can't justify the price anymore. I'm sure the club will be able to milk more from the fanbase, with this new deal, which is what it is all about. The new kits every season, is the shitty side of modern fitba.

  8. Id like to see Topi get a shot at playing in a different team that potentially suited his skills. As has been said he was driven into the ground that first season and then asked to play in various unfamiliar roles in a team lacking in any confidence. He really hasn’t had a chance. There have been games where he showed some real ability so Im not fully convinced he should be junked just yet. There is a danger that in scrapping the whole lot of them, we disrupt the squad significantly, replacing good footballers with mid-table Prem journeymen just because we crave stability. Someone, somewhere on the pitch is gonna need to be a baller.

  10. We all know of your dislike for him when he was at the club but to say that he never scored a header for us is not true

  11. Maybe it's an Aberdeen thing, but for me, living in Glasgow, I don't really prefer (or hate) one more than the other. I also think, slightly changing the argument a little, Miovski's move to Rangers is nowhere near the same as Barron, Wright or Jack going to them, or the nonsense that was Ricky Foster.

  12. It’s not just the football though. If you know a turbo Hun, you’ll also know his views on royalty, immigration, taxation, welfare, Donald Trump, climate change, genocide in Gaza, the death penalty, Brexit… There is a significant amount of people living in this country who need it to fail and who actively seek out misery. Drinking in the same flat roofed British legion club every weekend, going to Ibrox, sectarian marching & holidaying in Benidorm is their life Celtic fans have their problems too obviously but Huns are significantly worse

  13. No loans from any other Scottish Premier league club - especially the cheeks. Buying players fine. I can live with a loan with option to buy, but just a straight loan, absolutely not. Its pathetic, embarrassing, demeaning, makes us look utterly tinpot and only helps the other team at the end of the day. I can’t actually believe any Dons fan can find this acceptable, no matter how shite we are on the field currently or at any other time…

  17. Gotta love a bit of healthy revisionism . I think we can all agree he’s a rat bastard but to suggest he wasn’t that great anyway when at Pittodrie is some impressive psychological management.

  19. 100% this and more. I have no liking for Celtic and they have inflicted much pain on us on the pitch in recent decades. Their fanbase are total dicks, their holier than thou/victim mentality is hugely irritating and their sense of entitlement has grown to levels that are hard to listen to but they don’t even scratch the surface of the rancid bile and putrid behaviour of those c**ts. Maybe it’s because I’m married to an Irish Catholic but I find Hibs and Celtic fans just that little bit more bearable as individual humans in a way that Huns and Jambos just don’t seem to be able to do. I’d take Miovski back if we buy, not on loan. Everything else has been covered.

  21. Loans between clubs in the same league should be banned altogether. I tend to agree about Miovski. He’s never really scored with any consistency at any club other than us.

  22. Same here, just don't want the rat back. We are better than that. As for our next goal scoring "hero" there is a fair chance that he is already in the building in the shape of Kevin Nesbit. We just need to give him proper service and he will deliver. He has already shown that on the the odd occasion he has had proper service he is more than capable of hitting the back of the net. At the moment I am optimistic for next season, Robinson has a lot of work to do in the close season yet, but the early signs are good signs. Just please don't go and fk that up by brining back the rat.

  24. Alright folks, it is time for a massive under-the-hood upgrade here at DonsTalk. We'e been running the current version of our forum software for a few years now, and while it has served our Aberdeen FC match threads, transfer tracking, and daily football debates well, the digital world moves fast. With the current software reaching the end of its lifecycle at the end of this year, we are moving forward to future-proof the forum. Starting week commencing 6 July 2026, DonsTalk will be undergoing a major software upgrade. Because we proudly run a self-hosted setup, this isn't a standard "click update and hope" situation. It is a ground-up platform rebuild. Here is exactly what you need to know about the timeline, the upcoming features, and what to expect during the transition. The Upgrade Tmeline Full Database Backup and Lock - Monday 6 July 2026 - We will pull a complete final backup of all forum data. DonsTalk will be placed into a read-only maintenance mode so no data is lost. This means you will not be able to post to the forum but you will still be able to read. Server Adjustments - Tuesday 7 July 2026 - Our server will be updated to meet the new modern technical infrastructure requirements - we did part of this in March, ensuring optimisation and security compatibility. This means you will not be able to post to the forum but you will still be able to read. Migration and Code Deployment - Wednesday 8 July 2026 - The new sofrware will be uploaded. We will begin running the upgrade and convert the database structure over to the new setup. The forum will go into maintenance mode and will not be available to view. Theme Rebuild and Stability Testing - Thursday 9 July 2026 - Because the new forum rewrites how our layouts work, the look and feel of the forum will change. We will spend this time stabilising the upgrade, ensuring a clean, dark-mode mobile friendly user interface, and checking forum functionality. The forum will still be in maintenance mode and will not be available to view. DonsTalk Goes Live - Friday 10 July 2026 - The switch will be flipped, and the brand new DonsTalk will be fully open for posting. We're very much aware that this is happening in the middle of the World Cup last 16 and quarter finals, if each stage of the upgrade is successful, we'll speed things up to bring the forum back quicker to minimise downtime. What's Changing? (And What You'll Love!) This isn't just a security update; it fundamentally improves how you use the forum every day. Brand new text editor (TipTap): The old clunky editor is gone. The new froum introduces a sleek, real-time rich text editor. This means pasting images, dragging and dropping quotes, embedding media, and formatting your match-day tactical breakdowns will be smoother than ever. Significantly Faster Page Loads: The entire platform has been stripped of legacy code bloat. Database queries are highly optimised, meaning the forum will load notably faster on mobile devices, even when threads scale to hundreds of pages during a tense transfer deadline day. True Progressive Web App (PWA) Capabilities: For those who browse DonsTalk on their phones, the new version behaves much more like a native app. You can expect better mobile responsiveness, cleaner dropdown menus, and vastly improved notification handling. Automatic Archiving and Index Cleanups: Behind the scenes, years of old historical threads will be managed better by the system so they don't drag down the site's overall search performance. A quick heads-up on launch week Because the new software handles themes and layouts entirely differently than the current forum, the forum will look a bit different when we first open the doors on July 10. We will continue to do some layout tweaks after launch and we'll be adding some new features over the coming months. We appreciate your patience while we get the digital pitch sorted out. Get ready for a faster, cleaner, and much more modern home for DonsTalk

  28. Nigel Farage addresses the nation. Not about how he’s never had a constituency meeting, or missed 77 Parliament votes in a row, or the £5m he pocketed from a Thai crypto billionaire for Brexit/security/something else or the fact his burd paid £900k in cash, presumably from tips, for a house he’ll never live in No, he wants to launch a white lives matter campaign on the back of a murder where the victims family specifically said it they didn’t want it turned into an issue of race. I suppose those white lives don’t matter to Nige He is a cunt, so is every member of his company & so is every dribbling fuckwit that falls for it It’s a shame he walked out of that plane crash

  31. Has to be Miller. He's the only one who replaces Gilmour's ability to move the ball quickly and will try the passes the others won't. Fletcher looked decent, but doesn't offer anything we don't already have in abundance (based only on yesterday). Similarly Barron and Irving.

  32. Yeah, bit of a blow but if everyone is fit I don’t think he starts. Fletcher looked very assured but I don’t think he’s earned it, and Clarke is a loyalty guy….to an extent. I’d expect Lennon miller to be brought in, none others have been consistent squad players so loyalty is limited, but fletcher is brand new and barely played first team football, I think miller has the stones and was the one who raided a few eyes missing out. Christie, Ferguson, even mctom can all play holding mid if needed.

  36. I'm neither bent out of shape or foaming at the mouth, just don't want him back at the club. Even Ash Taylor got it. Like I said in previous posts, we should be better than that as a club. Look to the future and find our next goal scoring hero, instead of pandering for the return of a mercenary, hun prick.

  37. Dear old Dons Daft would be going apoplectic at this use of various tenses of the verb (or gerund) 'loan' being applied to the receiver, rather than correctly using the verb 'borrow'. That said, he was rather prone to losing his shit when it was also being applied as a noun - in which case loan was (and is) a perfectly acceptable term when speaking about givers and receviers. Ah DD, how worked up you got over nothing

  39. Right, so I'm going to to get pelters for this, but the other day in my Amazon feed I saw the Duncan Ferguson autobiography in ebook format for 99p. Thought what the fuck, why not, if nothing else it might give me even more reason to dislike the Big Hun. Turns out it is a really good read with only really one chapter (not very long) about his time playing for them. Amusing anecdotes about his time starting out at The Arabs including tales of how some weeks he owed the club money such was the level of fines Wee McLean was hitting him with. Huge focus on his time in Barlinnie that was an interesting read. His passion for Everton FC really knows no boundaries and it turns out he is a really generous type of guy. Actually one of the better footballer's autobiographies I've read and certainly worth less than a pound

  41. Apparently he could ‘no longer stay silent’ and has written a 5000 word essay on what’s going wrong with the Labour government. His analysis was actually pretty spot on but his ideas are not so. His blend of market economics and social provision seems to have shifted a little further towards a Reagonomics/Thatcher-lite approach and his foreign policy ideas of do whatever US say is frankly mental. He is still sounding like he is seeking validation or justification for his stance on Iraq, all these years later. If you can’t be arsed reading the essay there is a decent interview with The News Agents pod but it’s pretty much a bend over and let the market and the US ride you senseless kinda deal.
