Ally Begg returns to the ABZFP and he joins Gary (@tchocky83), Graham & Gavin (@TheRogue87) to pore over the season-shattering Scottish Cup exit at the hands of Motherwell on Saturday and the subsequent dismissal of Stephen Glass from the manager's hot seat after just 40 games in charge of the Dons. We take some time to assess where it all went wrong for the man from Fintry and where the Club goes from here. We review the @AberdeenWomen and their Scottish Cup win over Spartans; we take our usual look at the Young Team and our loanees in Loan Watch before we preview this week's SPFL Premiership double-header against St. Johnstone & Motherwell.

Fintry and the Fintry Development Trust are well known within the wider community world as being one of the first to own a wind turbine. Gordon Cowtan was there at the very beginning; one of “the Fintry 4”. It was good to catch up with him and get his reflections on the early days and how things developed. We also talk about his background, lessons learnt, and what the future holds.
Kayt has been ‘doing good stuff in Fintry' for more than a dozen years from tackling fuel poverty to community orchards. She has had a number of roles within Fintry Development Trust and has been involved in lots of different projects from energy advice to a car club. FDT has always been more than just owning a wind turbine. In this podcast, she talks through her experience of a rural community that has a reputation of being innovative and more eco than most.

The residents of Fintry, Scotland, were approached back in 2003 by a developer that was looking to set up a wind farm in the area and was seeking local support. After years of negotiations the community agreed to the wind farm on the proviso that they install an extra turbine on the site, for the Fintry community. The wind farm developer paid for the additional turbine, which the community are gradually buying back over 15 years, together with paying maintenance, interest and land rental costs. Check out the show notes for more information.
Out on the Rob Roy Way I have enjoyed some great walking over the past week or so not only out on the Rob Roy Way where I had the chance to look at the Corrie Aqueduct, part of the Loch Katrine water supply infrastructure to Glasgow but I also visited the Loup of Fintry waterfall near the village of Fintry next to the Campsie Fells. It was well worth a visit as the recent rainfall had really swollen the river levels. We are finally giving up the fantastic weather and Scotland is now moving on and into the Autumn so at least we have the colours of Autumn still to look forward to.
Whilst the rest of the country enjoys the May Bank Holiday, we are hard at work tackling the issues. Lesley thinks David Cameron should try a ‘zero hours’ contract.The whole issue of land reform bubbles up again with news about the Coop sale and a hard hitting Scotsman column from Lesley. We discuss the question; land reform and a referendum campaign – how do they fit together? We also discuss Fintry’s FRESh community awards and the Big Ref Debate… ideas and lessons from both, it would seem.
