Which probably means his agent is getting the players name out there .

Aberdeen break down their turnover (they have to because they're a PLC) but Hibs don't.

Aberdeen's turnover for 2017-18 was (in 000s):

Gate receipts - £4,801
Sponsorship ans advertising-£2,008
Broadcasting rights - £2,855
Commercial - £4,875
UEFA solidarity and prize money - £841
Other operating revenue - £35
Total £15,415.

Hibs total turnover was £9,556.

I would expect gate receipts to be similar for both clubs and the other categories to possibly be slightly higher for Aberdeen as they were an established top-flight club and Hibs hadn't been for the previous three years, but the stand out figure for me is 'commercial'. Given it's separate from sponsorship and advertising I'm not sure what it represents, but it's their single biggest source of income.

Sorry to keep this going but I just saw. IIRC a previous poster suggested their large donations were included under 'commercial. Makes some kind of sense. Interesting, no transfer income.

He was very good in his first 6 months at Well but seemed to struggle last season.

I guess Aberdeen will be putting in his application for "squad member somehow immune to yellow cards" now Shinnie has left.

Thought I would try and get the thread back on track.

Got a little excited when I seen it had a couple of new pages added but pretty much all of it filled with Aberdeen finances!

Our gate receipts will be bigger as we average nearly 3000 more .

Those commercial stats are huge. They’re raking in nearly £7m for non-football activities outside broadcasting.

Anyone ITK about Connor Jennings, i.e. seen the guy play, not just stats?

I have been told hibs aren't interested

Curtis Main will actually do a job and be a useful addition for Aberdeen I think. He won’t score many but he will fit into a McInnes side well.

Wouldn’t have him at hibs but some players suit certain clubs.

Seem quite a few teams are trying hard to get their business done easy this season. Us, Aberdeen and Motherwell have already signed a few.

Reliable source? Seems a few players we have been linked with in the press is a load of nonsense.

[Robbo6-2]

Jennings still has a year left on his contract.

Would be surprised if we paid money for him.

Very reliable, im not one of those ITK posters, I found out more by accident but the person who told me would 100% know

Aberdeen have just got lucky after getting donations from a few wealthy fans who are cashing out of the oil industry.

If true that would be a one of hit, not sure it's the whole answer.

Apparently that boy from Barnsley who just signed for Aberdeen is a 5hit Adam hammill. According to my Barnsley supporting mate.

The Barnsley fans weren't exactly glowing in there reference of Stevie Mallan and look how well hes done.

Doesn't mean anything.

Lewis MacLeod I am hearing. Free to leave Brentford, fits our profile and Heckingbottom wanted him at Leeds.

Mallan splits Hibs fans down the middle I'd say.
