I think we'll manage top six, we seem to somehow manage it.

At the moment we still need to sign a right back, centre back, creative midfielder and a striker. Plus you haven't seen any on the pre-season games 

Do gingers walk differently?

ehhh...........yes, have you never watched one?

No he was walking like a ginger, not with one

There was a continental gentlemen (im not allowed to call him what i did tonight or Mizer will tell me off)

 

It was quite a sight to see and i believe Mizer tried to video it as proof as we both found it highly amusing to watch.

 

1. I thought we agreed that sub-Saharan gentleman was more appropriate than the D word?

2. Its not came out right, the evening light must have confused the camera. Therefore we dont really have a video of JC twirling around and swearing at the ground then scratching his heid as he went onto the pitch at FT. Never seen JC that bemused/negative at full time.

Cracking goal from Young although nobody looked like more surprised than him when it went in. Better performance than the Dundee game but still pretty poor. Foster JDV and Mackie all crap. Mulgrew looked pretty decent going forward but maybe suspect defensively. There was a trailist (french centre half I was told) on the bench but oddly he never got on even when Zander went off.

JDV was truly awful tonight, not a surprise when he was hooked. Zander was strapped up at the end of the game and was walking gingerly.

We scored and hit the wood work twice however that does shine over another poor performance devoid of idea. Positives: It was better than Dundee and we have scored at last. Young was one of the better players and well done to him taking the chance and having a shot unlike any of the strikers.

As you say jute the trailist was strange, didnt really seem to have the frame for a centre back and in the second half was clearly pissed off and bored in the dugout.

Anyway I managed to catch 2 of the 3 moments of the game on camera

Firstly Mulgrews free kick which hit the bar

And secondly a collectors item of a strike by Derek Young

£6 is a bonus. Means more money for carry out for journey up.

Mackie, whilst a hard worker and a big dons fan, is simply not good enough for us.

 

he wasn't even the best player at Colony Park when he signed for the dons, just the fastest

Met a guy who played with him at School and said the exact same think for when he was at School

The Dons this evening play their fourth pre-season game against Brechin City. The match kicks off at 7.45pm. Prices are adults £6 and concessions £3.

 

Once again Aberdeen will be playing a strong side with the most of the first team players travelling. Both Zander Diamond and Scott Severin are expected to return and new boy Charlie Mulgrew is also likely to feature at some point. 

£6 - nae bad 

Will be good to see Zander playing at the back rather than Duff 

Just as well we won't have that problem this year then eh

Indeed, no Europe 

Had one for about 10 seasons now, got one again for this season.

Got fuck all else to do on a Saturday afternoon.

Thats the problem, so many games last season were moved from Saturday at 3pm. Just no the same playing at 12 on a sunday or on a Monday night.

Are any of you doing this 

 

I did a sponsored Zipslide over the River Clyde from Finneston Crane for Alzheimer Scotland a few years ago. Scary climbing up the open metal stairs of Finneston Crane, but what a buzz jumping off!

tmwtm is doing it

Heard on the grapevine that our season ticket sales were down on last year, and just wondered if that was borne out by the users on here.

I expect to see the same back 4 tonight.

If he does anything that stupid he should be given one of these!

Well what team will turn up? Logically the team will be turning up with something to prove and show the fans that the Peterheid game was a one-off. But we have played three games so far and scored zero and who will be in defence?

 

My favourite EMail...

 

I see a number of parallels between Steve Paterson and Fergie

Alan Robb, USA/Scotland

 

Aren't all the stands(except the RDS) aren't into after 2012 or something. Thats why we need another stadium.

 

good night was it andrew?

Think somebody should have called an ambulance for him 

Jamie Smiths second against Gretna last season, shot form 18 yards though as he was being closed down after running from the half way line?

Maybe we'll be seeing a few more signings after all...

We could make a few signings from Peterheid - how about David Donald and Neil Mcvittie 

Peterhead 4 Aberdeen 0

An astonishing performance saw the Blue Toon run out 4-0 winners over Aberdeen at Balmoor tonight. There were four different scorers as Craig Gunn, Martin Bavidge, Bobby Mann and Konrad Kozminski all found the net.

Missing the injured Callum Macdonald and Davie Ross, Peterhead handed debuts to new loan signings Daniel Moore and Gunn, while Paul Jarvie and Martin Skinner made their first home appearances.

The Dons were without Zander Diamond, and named an experimental back four, with Stuart Duff and Ricky Foster filling the full-back slots and Lee Mair partnering Andy Considine in the middle. Skipper

As early as the first minute, Gunn was involved as he slipped in strike partner Bavidge, the wily hitman forcing the Dons' giant French keeper Bertrand Bossu into an acrobatic save.

And the Blue Toon maintained their early pressure, forcing a series of corners against their SPL opposition, with Bossu displaying a keenness for racing off his line.

Stuart Duff, playing at right back for the visitors, had to receive treatment before Jimmy Calderwood's side had their first opportunity, a Maguire strike from just inside the area.

However, Peterhead were rewarded for their promising start on the quarter-hour when ex-Don McVitie fired a stunning long ball over the top for Gunn, who escaped the attentions of Mair before firing a low 18-yard strike under the body of Bossu. Not a bad start!

Gunn's pace was causing the Dons problems, and just a few minutes later, his ball in from the right was hacked away from Bavidge, who would otherwise have been left with a simple finish.

The Dons reacted, with Darren Mackie finding space on the left but seeing his cross blocked by the imposing Mann. Peterhead struggled to clear their lines from the resultant corner, the ball breaking to Jeffrey De Visscher, but he shot over the bar.

Mackie should have done better when released through the middle, but was crowded out forcing him to slip in Maguire, who shot high and wide of the target.

And Peterhead punished that lax finishing when Graeme Sharp drove down the left wing, going past Duff as if he wasn't there before squaring for Bavidge to side-foot the second on the half-hour.

Mackie was the man getting in the best positions for the Dons, but when he was presented with a one-on-one with Paul Jarvie, his tame effort was saved by the feet of the goalkeeper.

And the same confrontation thirty seconds before the interval led to Mackie slipping the ball under the keeper, however Jarvie got enough on it to slow the ball down, and was able to calmly pick himself before picking up the ball a couple of yards short of the line.

The Toon brought on Michal Kula for the second 45 minutes, and there was an appearance for former Toon loan star Stuart Smith, who replaced Duff for the Dons. Lee Miller and Derek Young also came on, replacing Maguire and Jamie Smith.

The Dons came more into but produced little in front of goal, until the 75th minute when Kula came charging out of his area to clear a long ball with a diving header. He didn't quite make the right connection though, but when the ball came back into the area, Mackie's attempt at a bicycle kick went in completely the wrong direction.

Five minutes later, came the best goal of the evening. Sub Kozminski was brought down 30 yards out. As was so often the case last season, it was Mann who stepped up to the mark, and he thundered a howitzer of a strike into the top left corner of the net, a strike that perhaps trumped any of last season's efforts.

But it wasn't finished yet, and in the final minute, Kozminski raced onto a long ball before coolly slotting the ball low into the corner of the net to cap an amazing evening at Balmoor.

And who was all laughing at Hearts losing to the Pars, etc................... 

Im sure the leader of the orange order will have a good excuse.........

Fuck me and I thought Tuesday was pretty dire. That is a disgraceful score but when I was woken up from my snooze to be told the score by phone call I was far from surprised. The defensive line up as jute says is the worst ever to play for Aberdeen and hearing about Bossu Hen Broon confirms some more fears.

But dont worry its only pre-season, what do you expect? These games all about getting players' fitness levels up and experimenting with players and formations.  We did OK in the circumstances but we should make more of how they're doing come the last game of the Holland tour when they're fit and sharp. And who says you dont get exciting games pre-season
