    Explain why Aberdeens crowds were crap during the oil boom then?

    Aberdeen fans are using the downturn in oil as an excuse..Typical bleeting from them.
    Are they bleating about anything though??

    Constantly hear other fans banging on about Aberdeen in the 80s yet never hear them go on about it themselves.

    I've never come across any Aberdeen fans that talk about being a big club, 2nd force in Scottish football, attendances or anything like that.

    I've always thought they were quite like us in that they just went about their business quietly and played by the rules.

    We we don't need to hate every other club do we?!

    Aberdeen fans are just as deluded as the Jambos. I live in Aberdeen and the trash talk from them is unreal.

    Agree wirh this. Aberdeen fans i know have always been as self depricating and fatalistic as hibs fans.

    This suggests otherwise. Apart from 2/3 seasons a few years ago, their average has held up pretty well for about 20 years.

    http://www.fitbastats.com/aberdeen/c...attendance.php
    Those stats look dubious. What's the number of games column - the number of games they based the average on? They didn't have a crowd less than 16.7k in 2014/15? Aye, that'll be right. Think those numbers are nonsense.

    Lowest home attendance was against livi,6454

    Average was 13,359

    2015/16 was 13,094
    2016/17 was 12,640

    A steady decline despite an upturn in onfield performances.

    So where did that site get it's stats from? What a load of nonsense it was. Their lowest attendance may have been against Livi - but not in the league. The stats are meant to be league crowds. Garbage though.

    Id always believed that Hibs are the only non-old firm team to average over 30k for a season, but that site has the dons doing it twice??

    The averages on there do all look suspiciously high?

    What Aberdeen ?

    Looks like McInnes is off to Sunderland giving Aberdeen £1 million compensation, help them strengthen their side but lose a good manager.

    Derek McInnes will take charge of Sunderland this week in a £1million “transfer” from Aberdeen.

    Derek McInnes and Kevin Thomson look remarkably similar as the years go by.

    If McInnes goes to Sunderland..he will have the £16m down payment from Pickford burning a hole in his pocket...and what better way to invest it than a young 20 a season goal scoring cup winning prospect that he knows from Scotland.

    Agreed, hopefully Dembele leaves before we have to face him.

    Seemingly Sunderland are in a lot of debt and any fee will be used to reduce it.

    Knowing him and his family personally it's a great move for him - on a football note he's done great with Aberdeen so deserved his chance down south

    Difficult moving from Aberdeen to Rangers I think more easy if he was out of a job irrespective who was in charge.

    You have added on £40m to our actual debt for some reason, most of which is owed to our owner. I don't doubt that we are in a poor financial position but it isn't as bad as you have made out.

    So are you saying you 'owe it to yourselves'?

    I'm sure I heard another support say that for a while...
