Liam Scales defies anti Celtic loan message by angry Aberdeen fans

A section of the Aberdeen support have urged the club to stop signing Celtic players before their thumping win over Stirling Albion in the Premier Sports Cup.

Jim Goodwin's side secured Liam Scales on a season-long loan from the Premiership champions over the summer to make the Irishman the latest Celtic star to head to the Granite City on a temporary basis. The Dons faithful are hoping for a much improved season under their boss and have raised concerns previously over fears they are developing talent for a league rival. But Scales is proving a key contributor with his stunning pass setting up the Dons' second strike in their 5-0 rout over the Binos.

Ryan Christie was a runaway success during his loan stay with Aberdeen but Adam Montgomery failed to make an impact during a dreary 21/22 campaign. And supporters en route to Stirling displayed a flag which urged Dave Cormack to stop taking players from Glasgow's east end. But their criticism doesn't chime with Goodwin who already wants to secure Scales on a long-term deal.
