  2. I'm very glad that I can watch the Dons most weeks and then switch off to all other football (Scotland aside). I do watch the occasional game on the telly (rarely a whole game), mainly the BBC Friday night championship, but there's not a single game in any competition that I feel I must watch. I often think that people (colleagues etc, rather than folk on here) think that I'm pretending when I say I couldn't care less about English football or champions league pish. Because I'm a football fan, I must automatically be attracted to the biggest league or tournaments (I do watch international tournaments, it still holds some enjoyment for now). They'll reel off some name of some famous English based player, and I genuinely won't have a clue who they're talking about. With this world club pish, I have no idea what it is and who it involves (I have some idea, but it's guesswork based on the name and your post). Football mirrors the rest of the world in that it views quantity as progress. More games, more money, bigger transfer fees, fitter players, stronger players etc etc. It's safe to say that football hasn't progressed at all in the last 35 years (bookended by two famous cup wins). It's just that the measures of progress are abstract and hollow, and have absolutely nothing to do with what sport means and its enjoyment. Hopefully this shite will be the tipping point* that starts the much needed collapse of the game (again, mirroring society). The saturation point reached. *alongside VAR of course

  4. Couldn't sleep very well last night and ended up getting up at 5 am this morning. Treated myself to watching the game, penalty shout out, presentation and aftermath in its entirety. It just keeps on getting better and better and something I will never tire of watching

  5. For less than the cost of two strips, I can lie down on the train tracks before they enter the city.

  9. Shankland crawls back to Tinkcastle and accepts new contract. So what were these wonderful offers he turned down elsewhere That should have seen them spunk a fair few of Blooms £'s on him and stops them spending it on someone decent

  17. Maybe with the liberal laws on drugs and prostitution and decent drinking hours Dutch teams saw sign a Scottish player akin to throwing a fox into a hen house.

  19. I remember there was a bit of hype when he first came on the scene in Norway, it'll be interesting to see who Farji has come.

  20. He has three years left on his contract. Would make sense to loan him to Aberdeen for a year then you'll get a better Miovski next season once Girona have sorted themselves out from the shit-show they were last season. Keskinen (who I think will really come alive next season), Milanovic and Miovski as our front three next season would be mouthwatering. Anyone have an email for Girona where I can submit this idea to?

  21. It is a highly rated Cameroon born ex French youth international who came through the Ajax ranks and was once bought by Juventus for £14M but got loaned out to the Italian third division and available to us for £800,000. Goal record to date is 14 in 248 games. Got options to sign for clubs all over Europe apparently but his dream was always to play in the Europa League qualifying rounds. Also went on holiday with Palaversa in 2017.

  24. Doesn’t help that our interviewer (mal??) is awful. We need a proper reporter/interviewer as we develop and improve our online/social media presence. He’s very amateur. Reminds me of the commentators before we had Rob McLean. His questions are very poor and he doesn’t help the guy at all.

  27. Excellent post Well thought out and brings into focus exactly where we currently stand. P.S Bruce Anderson, under these circumstances isn't the worst possible shout.

  28. .................... ......... Come to think of it Shankland appears to be available and he would also tick the trained at club box....... I would prefer the Baggio from Banff to the Slabhead from the Slagheap though.

We noticed a feint unmatked path going into some woods.Thought we'd hae a nosey,and came across an unexpected lake.think this may be a lotus flower? Unusual this far North,but maybe teased out with the amount of recent sun

  37. I may take you up on that offer. They are both off to Spain in a weeks time and the Scottish Cup win has my daughter wanting Aberdeen related stuff for each day of the trip. I can see my European trip fund being spent in an afternoon.

  39. Ah, that makes sense. Maybe we should consider coaxing Winters out of retirement for the Liechtenstein game.

  40. Clarke should have been sacked after the Euros. If we’ve to have any hope of qualifying for World Cup he needs replaced ASAP. Useless cunt. If we got big Ange in he’d deliver us a trophy in his second year…

  42. Gyamfi Had a quick look at his stats and appears he also played RB, LW and RW last season, but was mainly a left-back. A good sign is that there are Schalke fans commenting on their club's announcement saying they wanted to see him given a chance there, with the suggestion being that we must have paid a good transfer fee as they rated him highly.
