Latest news on Aberdeen FC, providing comprehensive coverage of the Dons, Pittodrie Stadium, Scottish Premiership results, transfers, Jimmy Thelin, and all things related to the Red Army.
Aberdeen Football Club, fondly known as the Dons, is a professional football club based in Aberdeen, Scotland. Founded in 1903, the club plays its home matches at Pittodrie Stadium and currently competes in the Scottish Premiership. With a rich history and passionate fan base, Aberdeen FC has established itself as one of Scotland's most successful clubs, having won four league titles, seven Scottish Cups, and six Scottish League Cups.
The club is currently undergoing a period of transition under new manager Jimmy Thelin, who took charge in June 2024. Thelin faces the challenge of returning Aberdeen to its former glory and securing European football, a feat the club regularly achieved under legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson in the 1980s. The Dons' recent performances in the Scottish Premiership have been mixed, with the team pushing for a top-six finish and looking to improve their consistency both at home and away.
Off the pitch, Aberdeen FC continues to engage with its community through various initiatives. The AFC Community Trust works tirelessly to deliver programmes that promote health, education, and inclusion throughout the North East of Scotland. The Red Shed, a section of Pittodrie Stadium dedicated to creating a vibrant atmosphere, has become a focal point for the Red Army's vocal support, enhancing the matchday experience for all fans.
Aberdeen's history is deeply intertwined with Scottish football lore. The club's greatest achievement came in 1983 when they defeated Real Madrid to win the European Cup Winners' Cup, followed by victory in the European Super Cup. This golden era under Ferguson also saw domestic dominance, with the Dons breaking the Old Firm's stranglehold on Scottish football. Today, Aberdeen FC strives to recapture that success while adapting to the modern football landscape.
