Explain?
Why would you want our nearest competitors striker scoring? I want him to recover and have a good career but I certainly don’t want him ‘banging them in’ for AberdeenQuote:

Fair enough.Quote:

I’d like him to score against the The Rangers though.
Canny see any tears, just wishing an injured laddie good luck.Quote:

A mate of mine told me Middlesbrough were after him, probably scuppered now.
Cormack was saying only last week that they would try and cash in on him. Not going to happen now. From a Hibs point of view it's not a bad thing but never nice seeing a player get a bad injury
Big dirty hammer thrower who fouls constantly and plays for a rival club picks up run of the mill injury. Sorry but I won't be crying in to my cornflakes about this one.
The worry is with contact only recently introduced for players we could see a lot of early injuries from poor tackles

No surgery required, don’t wish any player an injury but if it hinders Aberdeen and he recovers then all good.
This 100%Quote:

They've got Rangers & Celtic in their first 4 games, then a trip to ER. Great chance for us to open a gap early.
Have to agree here!Quote:

A 23 year old footballer who plays for one of our biggest rivals is out injured for a few months whilst continuing on full pay, are we supposed to feel sorry for him?
He's got a knee injury that he'll most probably make a full recovery from by the end of the year, in the meantime one of our biggest rivals are deprived of the services of their top goalscorer, I'm personally delighted.
He plays a contact sport, injuries are part and parcel of the game. He's hardly been diagnosed with a terminal illness.
:dunno:
Are we going to have a thread for every opposition player that gets injured this season?
Let’s just make sure we beat Kilmarnock first. We were struggling for top 6 last year and only signed 3 players, losing 8 in the processQuote:

We have a transfer thread that is talking about the abilities of England goalkeepers. At least this one makes sense! :greengrinQuote:

I did, it's an open forum to post views and that's what I've done. I'm not the only one to have commented on the thread without wishing "aw the best to the boy".Quote:

Our main rivals for 3rd main goal scorer is injured as is their back up? Good news imo
The equivalent of Doidge being out for us. Big blow.
Nothing against him but it seems strange to be sending out best wishes to an opposition team's player just because he's going to be out of action for a few months.
If he had some life threatening illness, or had been sold to Hearts, I could maybe understand it.
I hope more Aberdeen and rangers and Celtc players get injured.
Another way of looking at it is if Aberdeen, Killie, Motherwell, et al were firing on full cylinders someone other the stickies might pinch second spot.
In fact a fairly workmanlike Dundee Utd with dubious time-wasting tactics pinched a League title as everyone was taking points from each other.
They’ll get humped on Saturday with or without Cosgrove. And hopefully they get humped every week after that.
You want Rangers to beat them?Quote:

Love your positivity. Personally, I think we could be anything from 3rd to 7th ....Quote:

Makes it even less likely Aberdeen will get their ridiculous valuation of him. Was it £4M they were quoting? Means he can't score goals for a few months.
I don't wish the guy any harm as an individual but I'm not going to be crying myself to sleep tonight either.
He's worth what someone will pay for him. Without Cosgrove Aberdeen struggle to score. Unless Joe Harper has a grandchild.Quote:

He’s back for them this week apparently.
Didn't Bruce Anderson go to Ayr Utd on loan.
Yes.Quote:
