Aberdeen FC is delighted to announce that the 2017 edition of the AFC Hall of Fame will take place on Friday 10th of November with some more Dons legends set to take their rightful place in the Hall of Fame.

The event, sponsored by Rainbow City Taxis, will take place in the AAM Suite at Pittodrie and is sure to once again be a memorable occasion for AFC supporters, sponsors and partners alike.

Established in 2004, the AFC Hall of Fame recognises players and managers who have reached the pinnacle of their profession, making a significant contribution to the reputation of this great club.

The Hall of Fame was successfully re-introduced in 2015 with the induction of Sir Alex Ferguson and we can now reveal the identity of the first of 2017’s inductees.

That man is Neale Cooper. Neale epitomised what made AFC so formidable in the 1980s, achieving success at home and abroad with the club he supported as a boy. A first team regular in his teens, Cooper formed an outstanding partnership alongside Neil Simpson in the Dons midfield and amassed over 200 appearances under the stewardship of Sir Alex Ferguson and Archie Knox.

After achieving so much success on the pitch Neale very much remains a popular figure amongst the supporters and attends Aberdeen matches on a regular basis.

Over the next few weeks we will also be revealing the other Dons favourites who will be inducted on the night so keep an eye on afc.co.uk and our social media channels for more details.

Tickets for this prestigious event are now available priced at £79+ VAT and include a 3-course meal, Hall of Fame presentation and Q&A with Neale Cooper and his fellow inductees.
