  1. Past hour
  2. Constantly trying to get into a wrestling match with CH’s (and losing) instead of doing your job isn’t physicality, its stupidity. Nilsen isnt really a midfield enforcer - just another Scandi not suited to our football. Gyamfi its too early to comment, though the fact that a stiff breeze seems to be enough to injure him doesn’t bode well. Either way, we need a few more than 3 physical players - and certainly at CH.
  3. He’s also performing well, & in his system, under our next manager too, so what’s not to like…
  4. Except I think Nilsen was supposed to bring that steel. Which I think he did, it’s just that he brought other stuff that didn’t work out well and his form tailed off quickly. Lazetic also pretty steely, but to no great effect. I think Gyamfi has it in him too.
  5. Zero physicality is one of the real glaring issues - among many. It looks like a squad constructed by a nice gentle Scandinavian person - someone with absolutely no knowledge of the basic requirements of football in the Scottish league - to play in a nice gentle Scandinavian league. Funny that. The alarming thing is nobody at the club seems to have pointed this fundamental flaw out during any recruitment at any point in the last 18 months. Aye, Peter Leven, that includes you (with apologies if you did but just got ignored - though based on your formation and approach this last two games I do find that hard to believe)
  6. It’s probably been mentioned already but having 2 men on the 6yrd line at a goal kick is fucking nonsense The keeper, defenders, rest of the team, the opposition, the people in the stands and everyone tuning in on tv knows it’s fucking nonsense
  7. Absolutely. Played like a guy protecting himself for his next move - which doubtless is being lined up for this month. Either way, folk like him are zero use to us at this time - and he’ll be costing a fortune in Aberdeen terms - so just send him back now.
  8. Today
  9. Have said this since the very first time I seen him "play" for us (well to be honest In my opinion he has never actually "played" for us, he only ever plays for Jesper fkn Karlsson) we can give him a one way ticket and return to sender. Huge let down, won't be missed at all.
  10. I don't see signing Welsh as desperation at all. He's a good age, coming into his peak years, Scottish and performing well in our division. He's exactly the type of signing we should be making.
  11. The Scotsman report on yesterday’s bunfecht is fucking appalling. I read via Pressreader, and infringement of copyright is a red card offence, quite correctly, so I cannot copy n paste. Mark Atkinson, whoever the fuck he is, uses up a considerable proportion of his allocated word count having a right go at Dons fans for the content of their vocal input, and the small quantity of harmless objects thrown at the Hun subs. Not a syllable or as much as a phoneme concerning the sectarian content of our visitors’ singing, and the general moronic abuse that the bastards were dishing out, or of the vandalised seating.
  12. Exactly the words that were going through my mind watching the game yesterday. We play like a bunch of wifies (if you can still get away with that saying). Allowing somebody like Raskin to be winning headers speaks volumes about what is wrong with the team. With each game that passes it actually makes me think someone like Robinson is exactly the kind of manager we need. ....and the director of fitba should be absolutely nowhere near the bench. Like watching Cathro and Levein all over again.
  13. Objective achieved as it grabbed your attention Truthfully hadn't actually realised it was on bold until it was posted and thought fuck it, leave it as it is Al
  14. To be fair, both of those worked out pretty well!
  15. In that case, I'd better get some fitba boots and head up the road.
  16. Posted regarding this on here about 30 minutes into yesterday's game. No objection from me if he is recalled from his loan and replaced by someone that wants to be here and is a team player His time here has contained more lows than highs.
  17. My first inkling of his presence (the PA’s fucking hopeless) was when I glanced at the big screen during some sort of hold-up, and saw the image of him in discussion with Interim Pete. A luxury, some say fanny dancer.
  18. Resources dry up. Life becomes shit. People rebel. Time to go back and read The Handmaid’s Tale. Or the history of Teotihuacan. Or Aberdeen post mid-90s. Or whatever. Rico clearly knows more about this than the rest of us so looking forward to reading more (that’s not sarcasm by the way).
  19. Are you available for parties?
  20. As terrible as the world is, I don't think that there's any need for bold letters in the opening post. Anyway, it's just the beginning of civilisational collapse. It'll a decade or three to get into its stride, it's fine. When all the hard to reach resources have been used up, which they largely have, and when population begins to drop, then this is the result - always. Venezuela is as much about the US having oil as it is China not having it. They're not making roads without Venezuelan oil, that's for sure (or at least not very good ones). You can have all the solar panels in the world, but diesel builds infrastructure. We're basically entering a period where our children and their children will have less energy at their disposal (especially with the negligent AI waste). Our economic system can't handle degrowth. The mental cases in charge have spent fifty years shouting GDP, growth, "what about the economy" and "he/she is economically illiterate" at anyone who tried to point out the anti-thermodynamic cult that they had created. They'll die clinging to those religious economic beliefs.
  21. That's because Robson continued to try and play the exact same style (Clarkson behind two guys pressing) as he had previously, seemingly unaware that he'd replaced Ramadani with McGrath. It was like having two Clarksons. In the first half last night, Clarkson was sitting deeper than Shinnie and Polvara, and it worked very well and Clarkson was our best player.
  22. You know what I find a bit odd? Nobody seems to give a fuck about the hunger strikers. I mean, whether you agree with them or not (you fucking should, what’s wrong with you!?) these are peaceful protesters getting absolutely shafted by the government. I would’ve thought people might care a bit more about that
  23. We are desperate
  24. JD Vance is hated by the MAGA movement, politicians and voters. He’s been completely sidelined from any decision making. He’s basically unemployed at the moment. I think the plan is that once he gets the job, being popular with the electorate won’t really be an issue
  25. Sometimes you are better with nothing when it comes to our player recruitment. I don't know much about the loon, but it smacks of desperation, if true.
  26. I meant to add on my just back post. Does anyone else think Karlsson has chucked it? You may have thought so before yesterday, but he was really poor yesterday. I didn't even know he was playing until well into the first half. I think it is reasonable to suggest he doesn't want to be here now.
