Welcome to Episode 53.95 of The ABZ Football Podcast!
Gary (@tchocky83) brings you a special mini-pod as we look at summer recruit number 8 for the Dons in the form of English winger/attacking midfielder, Callum (Cal) Roberts following his move from Notts County to the mighty.
Gary is also joined by the host of The Magpie Circle Podcast (@MagpieCirclePod), Paul Mace (@paulmace6) to get the down low on our new signing as we discuss what Aberdeen fans can expect and what former Magpie & Dons player Roberts may remind older listeners of.
During the show, Paul also makes reference to a great interview that the Magpie Circle Podcast had with Cal Roberts last season which gives some real insight into the man, links here:-

EP53: Stirling Albion Review / Latest News Round-up / Raith Rovers Preview

Wednesday Jul 20, 2022
It's Wednesday and you know what that means!
Welcome to Episode 53 of the ABZ Football Podcast as Gary (@tchocky83) and Gavin (@TheRogue87) take you on the magical mystery tour that is the Premier Sports Cup Group Stages - third stop? The Forthbank as the Dons rout the 'Binos with a five-star first half display.
We then take our regular look at all of the news coming out of AB24 in the last week, including the news that The Duke Luis Lopes had signed on at the Dons and we speculate wildly about the future of the Aberdeen / Atlanta link-up with the departure of Darren Eales from his President/CEO role with the MLS club to join Saudi Sportswashing United.
We then turn our attention to Sunday's visit to the home of football by Raith Rovers in our final Group A fixture as the Dons look to exorcise the demons of our trip to Kirkcaldy last season and secure a seeded spot in the Round of 16. Joining us to preview the game and give us the lo-down on Raith is none other than Rovers' football operations & media manager, Niall Russell (@niallrrfc) who also offers us a fascinating (and candid) look into the goings on at Raith in January and the David Goodwillie signing debacle.
