Only a percentage of it. The bulk of their debt was written off by the bank!
They also got money of of others for shares. That money all went to clearing the debt that was agreed to be paid by the bank.
Aberdeen have agreed an investment deal that will wipe out the club's debts.
As the Dons released their annual accounts, it was revealed their net debt of £14.49m will be cleared if the restructuring plans are approved.
Willie Donald and his wife Elaine, who own the Stonehaven-based engineering company WM Donald, will become shareholders in the club.
The Pittodrie outfit hope to see the plans given the go-ahead at next month's AGM.
Aberdeen chairman Stewart Milne told BBC Scotland earlier this year that he remained optimistic that the club could soon be in a "debt-free position," as they target new training facilities and a new stadium.
In the annual club accounts, Aberdeen revealed turnover rose from £7.85m to £11.158m last season with wages increasing from £5.256m to £6.084m. The club say the wages increase is a result of higher bonus payments.

"If the final steps are approved at the AGM we will have a strong balance sheet and the debt servicing burden will be removed."
Milne told the club website: "The period covered in this report has seen a significant change in the fortunes at Aberdeen given the team's success in lifting the League Cup."
It was also confirmed that if restructuring plans are approved, Aberdeen FC Community Trust will also receive a "sizeable shareholding".
On the restructuring plans, Milne said: "The negotiations have been ongoing for a number of months now and these arrangements will, I believe, be transformational for the club.
"The club are indebted to Willie and Elaine for the role they have played in this. If the final steps are approved at the AGM we will have a strong balance sheet and the debt servicing burden will be removed, allowing us to drive forward on training facilities and the plans for the new stadium with much greater confidence in our ability to raise the additional investment needed."
Willie Donald said: "Our family recognises that we have been fortunate to have grown our business in a city and region that has benefitted from the impact of the energy sector over the last 37 years.
"We decided some time ago that we wished to give something back to the community, we see the football club as a vital and central part of the community, and indeed the whole North East of Scotland and see this investment as an excellent opportunity to deliver our objective."
As part of the restructuring plan, the net debt of the club will reduce by £14.49m and its share capital and reserves will rise by the same amount. Debt of £4.42m owed to the Stewart Milne Group will be converted to equity. SMG shareholding in the club will rise to around 43% but only up to 29.9% of this would be voting rights.
Aberdeen Asset Management will convert their remaining debt to equity and Willie and Elaine Donald will end up with a shareholding of around 20%.

Update already?
Yeah I was on the beta. Then when the beta was updated to full version.
-
Wince the update, the results have been shocking. Can be beating teams easily then I'm the last 10 minutes the jump up and score one more than you. The beta was better than this crap
-
In aberdeen case, they sold the debt to a shareholder wm donald, and he converted it to shares
-
Op maybe confused from his date with neil 'the bigot'lennon
-
2 goals that were both class. Surely that's us back to.our early season form
-
Part of the problem imo, is that no one wants to put their boot through the ball and would rather try pass the ball into the net.
-
Unlucky oduwa
-
What a save. Need to play the whistle rather than look for the award as well. Seem to be playing better now
-
Great changes. Hopefully have an attacking threat now that clark is off.
-
Want to try walk it into goal. Just pull the trigger and hope for a deflection
-
Play the ball across the box not to the back. And get clark to fuck, he is a supposed striker but won't hot the blinking ball
-
Wilson needs a slap, all over the place, causing needless problems
-
But it wasn't a 6-2 game. So doesn't count
-
With all due respect to anybody who believes otherwise but I think Rangers has far greater enemies to concern ourselves with than Mark Burchill .
He's been ill advised at best with his silly comments however I think his words were that of a relative novice to the management game. Hes since withdrawn these comments in the shape of a public apology and acknowledged his error.
We have every right to witch hunt our real enemies within the game,their time will come but in all honesty I wouldn't count burchill among them.
Hopefully the game will serve to highlight the hammer thrower mentality in our game and help afford our young players more protection in future.
Issued an apology that is the same insult but in different words. Still saying he was protecting his player cause he might play for Scotland and that oduwa is English.
-
It's in the sun or at least him claiming he was misinterpreted and that he never sent his players out to hurt him and that be is a fan of oduwa
-
Someone should forward the transcript to the club with a link to the recording. And to the sfa aswell, need this shit sorted out.

Even pointing to last season the guy had 54 games and 13 goals to show for it under the worst manager of all time. Holt wasn't the best player yesterday, Law was better and made more of an impact when we had run out of ideas. He's the whipping boy on here because of last season.
There is many factors to consider I'm regards to laws impact yesterday compared to holts performance. One of those factors will be down the running about the Falkirk players did and law was fresh, also holt has played more minutes this season so will be feeling tad fatigued and law will be fresher.

Pittodrie was built on an old cows shit field iirc
-
Who won?
Rangers legends won 4-3. Coming back.from 3-1 down
-
From what I read the game was between Rangers and Celtic ex- players, and there was a trophy put up in memory of a local Celtic fan who died from MND.
You would be correct in that assumption, there was also a few ex players of others clubs, and guys that bidded on an auction to win a place in the teams
-
It finished 4-3 rangers
-
It's currently 3 all

Ch is a tit of the highest order, on his fb page when the going gets tough he would rum and hide, and allow his flock to then gang up and abuse you. He has called fans that keep.buying st during the failed attempt at getting boycotting, scum and not real fans. If you give him facts he blocks. When they first came about and was handing out their pissy leaflets if you never took one then his flock would abuse and threaten you. This allow stemmed from him wanting his ego stroked. Then you have all the personal attacks on the Easedales, and when that bit him on the ass, he whinged about the court action. The so called man can't stand up and accept he went to.far and is now actually targeting confused fans for there money
