    Special mention today to Scotland’s finest and the stewards for the most inept piece of security ever. 

    Some celtic fans were outed after the 1st goal, escorted from the area, where they decided that a wee bit of verbal to Aberdeen fans was safe to do now that they had protection. What they never banked on was them being walked past the Germans that were over for the game down one side, past a gate out to safety and right around the front of section Y, where it’s known to be a bit tougher than other areas of the stadium, to be met by about 70-80 casuals and be blocked in to the area. The standoff took a good few minutes to clear before they were taken down the front again, to their gratefulness as they were lucky to get out of the area alive. 

    I can only assume a few doors will be knocked on in the next few days and a heavy fine will be sent to Aberdeen. 

    That was mental.

    Assumed they'd just take them up the stairs and out the back of Y but seeing them go down the stairs between X&Y it looked though they were heading for the track.  Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw them going back up the stairs again. :lol:

    Norwich City have completed the signing of Kenny McLean from Aberdeen, with the midfielder returning to Pittodrie on loan until the end of the season.

    McLean, 26, joins the Canaries on a three-and-a-half-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

    The box-to-box midfielder started his career at Rangers before moving to St Mirren in 2009, making his first-team debut aged 18. He joined Aberdeen in 2015 and has made 135 appearances for the Dons, scoring 18 goals. McLean has also won two international caps for Scotland, playing 90 minutes against Holland in November 2017. He is the only outfield player to have been involved in all 29 matches this season, scoring four times.

    “Norwich has the right feel about it,” McLean told Norwich City TV. “I’ve met people at the Club and it just seemed right that this was the place for me to come. And after watching them on the pitch, it just seems perfect for the style I want to play. The manager’s philosophy suits me and the Club is right for me at this time of my career.

    “I think it’s right for me to have a pre-season in the summer with the new team and with the manager. I’ll need to adapt to the way he wants to play, and that takes time and doing that in pre-season is right for me.”

    Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes added. “When it became clear Kenny would be leaving the club, of course, we wanted him to remain with us until the end of the season, so this represents the best outcome for us.

    “It’s a fantastic move for Kenny, both in terms of his career and financially, and I am delighted for him as he has earned his move.

    “The importance of him remaining at the club for the rest of the season was prevalent in his mind, and he has represented both his own, and the clubs, interested superbly.  All parties involved have handled the situation extremely well and we’ve ended up with an outcome which is positive for both Aberdeen FC and Norwich FC.

    “The time for wishing Kenny well is not for now. We are entering a very important period of fixtures and I am sure Kenny will play a pivotal part in helping us achieve our ambitions this season.”

    Will be interesting to see if McLean features tomorrow amid the midweek stories that he was at an advanced stage in his transfer to Norwich. Can't imagine he'll feature if those stories were in any way accurate.  Still not work permit for Chidi Nwakali.  Despite having made two bids for the exact same derisory amount, Hull are reportedly going to make a third bid for McKenna - they need to get serious or get to.....

    £301,000, a bag of balls and a set of training bibs I've heard.

    My mate said it was horrendous getting a tram back from Murrayfield on Saturday, even after going to the pub for an hour to let the crowd disperse.  I suspect playing football internationals there would create similar transport complaints to those experienced at Hampden...

    Great news. I've waited quite some time for this news. Great that we'll no longer have to endure game after game with him contributing feck all. 

    As DD says, he should never play for Aberdeen again. Get him training with the youth team and give him to anyone who'll take him in January. 

    Mcinnes has said he'll be a key player for the rest of the campaign so he'll surely be playing until he signs for someone else.

    Seems pleased with his honesty but that might be a dig at someone else of course.
