23rd March - Starved of Dandies' action this weekend, TRF has decided to bring surfers this historical revelation that
its researchers have just turned up in OBE's dusty basement hovel. It's a bit academic, but hey, that's history
for you.

TRF's faceless men will be scattered in darkened corners round Pittodrie before the
St. Johnstone match offering scurrilous supplies of TRF back issues for discerning readers and collectors. All
proceeds will go to the Aberdeen FC Supporters Trust. |

12th March - Despite
Charlie Allan doing his best to depress everybody with his sensationalist tabloidese in recent days, some of us
would much prefer to think abot the fitba. If the weather doesn't screw it up for us again tomorrow then we'll
face a tough home game against Hibees. The Redz owe
the fans a good performance after the dross they served up in the windswept cup match against Livingston last week.
It's a good bet that the attendance at Todders won't be too brilliant as people give up hopes of salvaging anything
at all from this season and the Dons must give those of us who do turn up the incentive to keep on coming. So come on you Redz get stuck in and give us some goals and three points, we still
want to overhaul some more teams in this league to prove that we are on the way back and ready to do something
more worthwhile next season. At least there'll be nae buggers wi drums buggering up the atmosphere. |

9th March - This "exclusive" stuff in the Evening depress
about Millosovich Milne is all pretty interesting. Very emotive language coming from the ex-postie: "plot"
- "conspiracy" - you can just conjure up in your mind's eye all these directors skulking about in darkened
doorways and down back alleys whilst pristine, squeaky clean, chairman Milne is innocently discussing the temperature
of pies with Jack Douglas. Yes, the knives are out - Charlie says so, so it must be true. Strange how he always
has an inside track on everything that is going on with the board. Who is this Pittodrie insider? The portly pressman
is never short of a quote from our present chairman, in fact there seems to be a bit of a bond between them.
Anybody might think that somebody was orchestrating something to put a stain on other directors and divert attention
from the real guilty Pittodrie party. Why is it that Charlie Allan is coming out with stuff like this? Why is he
not challenging Milne on the footballing debacles of the past few years? Why is he not questioning the massive
financial losses that have grown worse year on year under the present chairman? Why is there no raised eyebrow
about the disastrous appointment of Alex Miller to the manager's chair? Is that not worse than some of the board
possibly considering that it is time for the present failure of a chairman to step aside? But of course, it would
need a lot more work for a journalist to tackle these serious issues than to throw together some speculative claptrap
for the next day's chip wrapper |
10th March - TRF will donate the proceeds

7th March - After
the wind battered defeat last night there is a bit of relief for us hard pressed Rudolphs today with the welcome
and much needed launch of the Aberdeen FC Supporters Trust. You can find out about joining the Trust by going to
the website at www.afctrust.org - TRF urges
you to join up right now and help to build a seriously influential organisation that will be driven by the fans
and the community. The future of the Dandies lies here and you can be part of it. |
| 4th March - Despite
only drawing at Kilmarnock, the Dandies are looking well placed to overhaul some of the teams above them. Moterwell
is the weakest target, but St. Johnstone and Dunfermline must be right in the sights too. It won't be easy because
of having to pack in so many games in a few weeks with only a small playing squad to choose from. Still, let's
go for it and if results run kindly then Dundee could be in trouble too which would mean a top six place. Who'd
have thought? Go for it Dons and let's get stuck in for the Cup as well. Turn Livingston over on Tuesday and we
could be cookin wi gas. |
