Leighton Clarkson (Aberdeen)

[Tangerine_Homo]

Aberdeen want to sell, the lad wants back to the North West.

Going for the right money but wages will be at the higher end.

Better than what we’ve got injured or fit.

Buy better then a loan

If your going to build a team around 2/3 very good players he's one.

Is he over 30? Does he a have a Sheff wed connection?

 

[Chunkylad]

Can we stand him next to a leg shaped Weetabix and kick balls at both of them first?

If he outlasts the Weetabix then yeah, why not?

 

[BFCAleman]

…is he weak and injured just putting his boots on ?

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

What are his hamstrings made out of?

24 ex Liverpool's academy..

Quality Weetabix comment

 

[tangerine_neil]

Sounds like a “come get me”

Ready made surname for BFC

 

[S88bfc]

If only we had a scouting network….

 

[Graves]

Quavers, Weetabix, poppadoms, Blackpool FC… they’ve all got one thing in common.

 

[EdgeleyTangerine]

24 ex Liverpool's academy..

I know. I was being facetious

 

[TommyHutch]

Not a bad call actually. Shame our scouting staff will not have heard of him.

Can we add skips ...

If so, 4 year contract!!!

 

[FY4Representer]

We need defenders, central midfielders and wing backs. I’m not interested in anything else at the moment.

[Tangerine1953!]

Is this just a rumour?

 

[Glassman]

Time yet ...

 

[Tanger]

Great work!

 

[FY4Representer]

The @Tangerine_Homo strikes gold.

[hertfordseasider]

That's a good signing, we have midfield well covered now, any teeny weeny chance of one more?

 

[Eventhepenguins]

Booooommmmmmm!!!
Great news

 

[Tangerine_Homo]

Scouting available to the club for a small commission and a free pie at home games .. Thank me later

 

[Tangman74]

Been a good day / got some energy returned to the squad - hopefully chance creators !

 

[A_Tense_Grin]

Sounds a bit better than normal. Never heard of him but hopefully can run and kick a ball.

 

[Walnut]

Hms piss the league back on?

 

[Clockwork Tangerine]

Have to admit that I don't know much about him, can anyone elaborate on what we can expect? Regardless, the excitement is contagious! UTMP!

 

[Southshore boys]

Signing of the day, we are in a much better position than we were this morning.

 

[poolseasider]

Oh dear the doomongers have just gone back in their holes and waiting until that next defeat.

 

[Tr33frog]

We’re still short at CB but can’t be mad at this signing, I’ve been very critical last few days but judging by the Aberdeen fans reactions we’ve signed a very good one.

Liquidate the club

 

[Toastrack]

12 goals in 108 games in the SPL, only 24yo so a player with future potential.

The local Aberdeen paper states we've paid "a significant fee" for him **
So, in a disappointment to the miseries on here, not a 'scraping the barrel' signing.

** EDIT - Quoted on a Dons forum as £450k plus add ons.

EXCLUSIVE: Aberdeen sell Leighton Clarkson to Blackpool

[ansdellmafia]

Hope the international clearance comes through in time for Saturday

 

[Simonized]

Aberdeen want to sell, the lad wants back to the North West.

Great call

 

[Adams Kebab]

If he’s anything as good as the last Clarkson we had he’ll do for me.

Let’s hope he does it and brings us some quality.

A decent last day that, 3 in and Evans out.

 

[SouthernSeasider]

Unreal signing quite a surprising one at that as well

 

[agouti]

Message from my mate who's lad was with Clarkson at Liverpool.

[02/02, 21:45] : Mates lad just signed
[02/02, 21:45] : Who's that, Clarkson?
[02/02, 21:45] : Yeh
[02/02, 21:46] : Just been reading rumours about him coming. Supposed to be decent.
[02/02, 21:47] : Yeh little bizzy bee

Welcome The Ghost Mk2

[tartanseasider]

Aberdeen fans are fuming he's gone

 

[HighfieldSeasider]

 

[YOUPOOL]

Our best signing in a long while

 

[Tangerine Tangerine]

Can you get all of his name on the back of a dhirt

Ahhhh 'teams like Blackpool'

 

[Sandgrown1]

Looks and sounds promising... he likes to get crosses in... big Gaz Madine would have been useful on the end of them.
I'm only going off the video above, but compare that to what Evans gave us over the last year... total opposite and all good.
Very good final day.

£450k plus add ons?

 

[JayJay]

Not sure who they insulted more, Clarkson or Blackpool.

Always find it funny people dissing Blackpool, I know it's run down but it can't be that bad when so many people visit (21 million plus in 2023....)
