Reidzer 1314 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I think the Mulgrew murmur was just hot air, I dont think he will be rejoining us. The worrying thing coming in to the business end of this window is that the rumours of possible signings have all dried up, there is no real talk of anyone joining.

Edinburghdon Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I wouldn't touch him with a bargepole. For many reasons, the biggest one being that his best days are behind him and even then he wasn't good enough. Played his best football the season after he left us and performed much better than I thought him capable so add short-changed us to the long list. It would be worse than Jackie Macnamara or however the fuck he spells the name I try to eradicate from my memory. Totally agree with this, he seemed to be a big part of the poor culture we had in the changing room at the time and we've worked hard to stamp that out under McInnes. Plus as mentioned before... He's nae very good anymore. Fully expect McInnes has targets up his sleeve, he's been quoted before saying he's got a couple in mind that requires patience so here's hoping once the squads form in England we can snap these targets up. There's still time but I totally get why some are starting to get concerned. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/7501-transfer-news-gossip/page/15/#findComment-175775

I really hope he has something up his sleeve. Child neglector (allegedly) is not the answer.

BigAl Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I think the Mulgrew murmur was just hot air, I dont think he will be rejoining us. The worrying thing coming in to the business end of this window is that the rumours of possible signings have all dried up, there is no real talk of anyone joining. Raises a couple of valid points for me. Don't think Mulgrew was ever a serious option.....wages, fact he was disliked during his time here, past his sell by date etc etc. Think cheap journalism or social media speculation at best. The lack of rumours over signings is a worry, but McInnes and AFC have a track record of keeping things under wraps until last minute and then just announcing the signing. Lets all hope this is indeed the case this time around, as at least one midfielder required before close of window.

Child neglector (allegedly) is not the answer. It was around the same time as the euro games. He's also said Aucho was one of a few options so I wouldn't read too much into him being the only target.

McInnes does have a habit of keeping his cards close to his chest, so I agree that the lack of rumours means much.

Reidzer 1314 Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 McInnes in the papers today saying he would like to bring in a midfielder and can ask the board for the funds if he feels he can get the right player. Basically admits his transfer budget is gone but has been told extra funds available if he needs it. Jamie Ness is the latest rumour.

manc_don Posted August 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 EXCLUSIVE By GARETH LAW ABERDEEN could land at least one midfielder today — with Norwich's James Maddison and ex-Rangers kid Jamie Ness lined up. Dons manager Derek McInnes has been left short after skipper Ryan Jack was crocked and Willo Flood joined Dundee United. That's seen him step up the hunt to bring in new faces before the window closes tonight. Norwich boss Alex Neil paid a fee to secure Maddison, 19, on a three and-a-half year deal from Coventry on the winter deadline day. He was loaned back to them for the rest of last season. Maddison returned to Carrow Road for preseason but only featured one game. — ironically 6-1 Capital Cup win over Coventry, during which he set up two goals. Ness, 25, has had an injury nightmare since quitting Gers for Stoke in 2012. He failed to start a single game for the Potters. After loans at Leyton Orient and Crewe he was allowed to leave for Scunthorpe a year ago. But Ness has so far only started one game. From the Sun...
