Aberdeen stadium plans back on the agenda

By Martin Nash    28 Nov 2013

The chairman of Aberdeen Football Club has revealed that Loirston Loch is still the preferred venue for the club's new stadium.

Making the announcement at the Dons' AGM on 25 November, Stewart Milne confirmed that talks have been ongoing with Aberdeen City Council about constructing a new stadium on the site.

Speaking to RedTV he said: "We still see Loirston as the best location for the new stadium and in recent months have reopened discussions with the Council.

"We have looked at other sites and there are other venues out there but we have invested a lot of money into the Loirston site and still firmly believe it is the best option."

Plans originally put forward by the club to build a 21,000-seat stadium at Loirston Loch close to a proposed community sports centre at Calder Park came to nothing when Aberdeen City Council rejected plans for the latter in August 2012.

Milne added that while Calder Park is now not an option for training purposes, negotiations regarding alternative sites were ongoing and he fully expected training facilities to be in place before the club relocated to a new stadium.
