Oldham’s chairman is an absolute roaster is he not?
No, just walk away now. We’ve offered what we think he’s worth and they’ve rejected our bid and, according to the report, bids from three other teams (presumably in the same ballpark) because that want a ‘bidding war’. F*ck that. Move on.
We will do the same with AlfieThat's their prerogative- any club would do the same if several clubs were chasing one of their players.

You could get x9 Kamaras for that money
As a plumber/gas engineer it made me chuckle.Says more about what plumbers are making now mate sorry gas engineers .
This.Why? If he is a player that our scouts & management have followed to the point of making an offer then why would we just fold the second our opening bid has been made?
Lets pray that he is.Or 0.03 of a Joe Worrall.
Is this lad better than Worrall? Know nothing about him.
The same Steven Gerrard who dropped Katic for Worrall .... lets hope John Brown has had a hand in scouting this boy !!Whatever happens, I trust Steven Gerrard's judgement - and if he wants to persist with it then fine but if he comes to a certain point in the process and he feels we need to walk away then this is also fine. It'll play out either way. This is what happens.
Steven Gerrard has learned a lot in the past season. He knows full well where he has made mistakes and made mis-judgements.The same Steven Gerrard who dropped Katic for Worrall .... lets hope John Brown has had a hand in scouting this boy !!
I think Gerrard has managed Katic, very well.The same Steven Gerrard who dropped Katic for Worrall .... lets hope John Brown has had a hand in scouting this boy !!

Is John Brown some scouting genius that the world has missed out on for years or something?The same Steven Gerrard who dropped Katic for Worrall .... lets hope John Brown has had a hand in scouting this boy !!
He was seemingly responsible for scouting both Cuellar and BougieIs John Brown some scouting genius that the world has missed out on for years or something?

The same Gerrard signed Katic aye that's him.
Also the prerogative of the player to say, I'm going to play for Rangers/Stevie G or I'll see out my contract.That's their prerogative- any club would do the same if several clubs were chasing one of their players.
and then benched him for a donkey ....
my apologies ... i totally forgot people on here cant tolerate any criticism of our manager
So his judgement is only to be critiqued when he signs players not what he does with them when they are brought in ? His Judgement was that Worrall was a better option then Katic for most of the season .... massive mistake for meThe post you quoted was in relation to trust of Gerrards judgment - your way of critiquing Gerrard - is to use Katic - a player we signed on the basis of..... Gerrards judgement.

In 2018 Aberdeen’s top goalscorer left them for a then conference/national league side. The money down south is ridiculous. But there are gems to be had...
They are both perfectly competent players that validate claims as to why his judgment should be backed, as is the other CB he signed.
We have been good at the back for the most part this season - it was a massive problem area for us which we went out and solved.
You and I differ on our opinion of Worrall i think ... and while i agree that the defence has improved ..... it looks most solid with when Goldson is partnered with Katic

ok fair point mate ... out of interest, what's is you opinion of his judgement of playing Worrall in preference to Katic for most of the season ?Aye, excellent judgement from Gerrard getting them in

I doubt he was a “star” striker if he was considering going into plumbing.I know changed days. I remember fairly recently a star striker was thinking of jacking it in and going back on the tools as a plumber.
Cosgrove was absolutely hopeless for Aberdeen, and then it was like a switch was flicked and he couldn't stop scoring.Aberdeen’s top scorer this year was Cosgrove who got one league goal less than Morelos, he played 12 games for league 2 Carlisle and scored 1 goal (his only senior goal) before Aberdeen signed him. He got 21 goals in 44 games last season.
Ah! but Scott got stuck on the M8 for hours on the way out !His grandfather got too the south pole before Scott.
People won’t really grasp the fact that dropping him for said donkey actually really benefited him. At the time he dropped him he was having issues I believe back home and his form has severely dipped. Now look at him.and then benched him for a donkey ....

Not really that important.Never heard of him.
lol.... yeah i wonder who could have agreed to terms like that .... don't think it would have been the gaffer right enough .... he doesn't make bad judgementsSorry mate ,but no one here knows the terms of Worrall's loan. Maybe he was forced to play him because of the terms. Until you know that keep your Redskins helmet on.
Maybe not the best comparison.Half a million quid for a player from a mid table 4th tier team and they want more. Cant say I'll be dissapointed if we look elsewhere. We got a young high potential croatian international centre half for less than 3x that.
I’d go one more bid with a take it or leave option.No, just walk away now. We’ve offered what we think he’s worth and they’ve rejected our bid and, according to the report, bids from three other teams (presumably in the same ballpark) because that want a ‘bidding war’. F*ck that. Move on.
