After completing his new deal, Andy Considine sat down and spoke to RedTV:

“I am delighted to have signed on for another year. It puts the icing on what has been a fantastic year. I have represented my country which was massive for myself and the family.

“I think I will finish my career at Aberdeen. I am feeling as fit as ever. Having that extra year on my contract will take me up to 35, which sounds a bit scary but there is no reason why I can’t play beyond that, and hopefully I am doing that here. I am not ready to hang up the boots for a while yet.

“My love for the game, and my love for this club will never die. I am very lucky. But through the lucky I have had to put in a lot of work to play at the top level for this length of time. It does show you, that if you apply yourself and look after yourself, it gives you every opportunity to stay in the game for a long time.

“I have never taken it for granted. I have seen players come through the door, had injuries and before they know it their careers are over, or they have had contracts cancelled and they are back out the door and struggling to get a team. Football is tough and can be a very cruel game. I have seen it a lot over the years.

“You just keep your head down, be as humble as possible and give everything you have.”
