Would imagine that can only mean at least 1 arrival at Pittodrie. I always feel a bit sorry for Cammy. Strikes me that there's a really hard-working, decent player in there.....it's just that he's caught in the middle of somewhere of Aberdeen's long 'midfielders that don't really do anything' list.

I agree and think he's had a bit of a tough time in terms of opportunity. Certainly a decent player and has way more heart than the incumbent "no. 10". Glad he's going on loan though. Needs to be playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with both of these, excluding the "don't really do anything" bit. I think if given a role behind the central striker Smith would prove himself. He has a willingness to carry the ball and take opponents on, get beyond the striker and is not afraid to have a pop at goal. I think in 6 months time Adam will be thrilled that Utd have loaned Smith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think we should be borrowing players from Aberdeen, no matter how dire our straits. Same goes for loaning from Hearts, Dundee and, if I had my way, Celtic and Rangers. In fact, I don't like loans in general, but this type is just horrible. I imagine you'd feel the same if the situation were reversed.

In general I'd agree, but then I remember that one season we managed to loan Ricky Foster to Rangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about to "fold" there then realised you got Andrius Velicka in return However I'll trump that with Calamity Bell to Dundee Utd which isn't even a loan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring "that" fresh air punch in the play off final, did he do a lot wrong at Rangers? Seemed steady enough at killie, and got Championship experience...

Seemed steady enough at killie, and got Championship experience... I always thought he was a pretty good keeper. It wasn't that long ago he was in the national set up and being linked with a move to West Ham (not sure how much truth there was in that mind).

ErsatzThistle Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Bell was a good keeper at Killie. I remember when he (along with Chris Maguire) ruined Robbie Keane's Celtic debut at Rugby park with some fantastic goalkeeping. Shame he made the move to Rangers, his career has went backwards.
