mizer Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 http://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/Article.aspx/1658915 THIRTEEN Aberdeen FC players are facing the axe, the Evening Express can reveal today. Manager Mark McGhee admitted he anticipates losing that many in a “natural cull†of his squad over the summer. McGhee also revealed he has drawn up a list of 100 possible replacements for the players who do leave.

Right - Paterson, Mulgrew?, Duff, ? left - ifil?, Grassi, ?, Mackie? Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/2769-ee-mcghee-to-cull-13-players/
maverick sheep Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Yesterday they publish a story quoting Dingus as saying he was open to the chance Grassi, Young and Duff could prove themselves but today it's as though he's suddenly changed his mind again. Do the EE actually have a sports editor to coordinate the stories or are they just desperately useless?

Slim Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Didn't they do a similar story 2 years ago and it led to a boycott of the EE by the club? Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/2769-ee-mcghee-to-cull-13-players/#findComment-78906
Mentorred Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 All it say's is 13 Aberdeen players. That could involve youth players getting let go also. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/2769-ee-mcghee-to-cull-13-players/#findComment-78907
Kowalski Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Thought McGhee wanted Kerr to stay? Some of these players are McGhee's signings. I think they've just picked any 13 players. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/2769-ee-mcghee-to-cull-13-players/#findComment-78908
stubo72 Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Would definitely keep Young for another couple of seasons - gives 100% every time and can't be costing that much. Also Aluko if he is just pish just now cos he aint fit yet... Mackie for nostalgia... And the rest... meh...

Guest donindundonald Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I for one welcome a cull, too many folk hanging around our club and not appearing to contribute much. It'll probably be best for the club and for the players in the long run. Glad to see Tommy Wright has headed off in the first instance - hopefully many more like him to go.

kelt Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 13 players? Total bollocks. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/2769-ee-mcghee-to-cull-13-players/#findComment-78931
tsr Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I really hope the cull happens, McGhee's last chance on the signings front, imo none of his signings have been any good so far. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/2769-ee-mcghee-to-cull-13-players/#findComment-78946
Reekie_Red Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 He's got to get rid of the deadweight that's been sitting around doing fuckall for too long. The only players I'd possibly keep would be Clangers, Diamond, Mulgrew (purely for set-pieces, nothing else), Young, Fyvie, Paton and Pawlett. Reel Maguire back in from his loan spell. Get rid of the rest. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/2769-ee-mcghee-to-cull-13-players/#findComment-78949
