  1. Another defender incoming then,...surely?
  2. Not overly fussed.I like him,but were only getting a good game in around 3.Game on Sunday might suit him though,hope he hangs around for that
  3. Came across this wee clip of festive fixtures from 1950 which caught the eye.Note the size of the crowds,and Hibs v Hearts > Celtic v Rangers,ie 65'000 v 60'000. All the other ones pretty amazing,pre Old firm glory hunter
  4. Aye was up about 5 years ago on a sweaty summer day.Bit of a trek in,but cracking views Sisters loon leading the way,Slioch on the right On the way up Summit views
  5. Definietly more optimistic,but I think were maybe game or 2 soon into a post Shinnie stride. Who knows though,we werent far away against them a few weeks ago. COYR
  6. Decent weather window over New Year on Lismore.Mentioned before,fine wee place for walking/cycling,history.Only 150 residents.Nae pub but summer cafe sells drink Looking East to the mainland over Loch Linnhe Walk thru rock on Appin circuit
  7. Every chance the same side plus AN other might have lost that game without him. In contention for MoM alongside Duk and McRorie.Typical industrious performance,though just managed to avoid a yellow card IMO
  8. Good old Duk,deserved a hat trick for the effort he puts in.Would have been a nicely worked first goal if allowed. We were good,not fantastic,but it wasnt a typically eye bleeding Dons/Saints game.We were a bit disjointed in the forward areas though,possibly due to a still unsettled side.I like Clarkson,but maybe thinking he's a luxury in a lot of games.Was calling for him to be subbed at H/T for Besuijen,but he was as ineffective.Fair amount of the Main stand around me getting on Miovskis back.Should have done better TBF.Wondering if both him and Duk could use a bigger unit partner alongside them(seperately). Mentions to Scales,Diego McRories surges forward,Stewart ,and of course Shinnie
  9. Were doing OK. Think I would take Clarkson off for Besuijen or Duncan.. Miovski needs a goal soon
  10. Before Xmas,Id heard from a good source we had targeted 2 african players.One was a miidfielder in Egypt who rejected our offer for better offers elsewhere,presume Shinnie fills the gap. The other was a defender who I have yet to hear about since,not sure if still a possibility.Rumours elsewhere(probable waffle) of a Serbian potential signing
  11. 31 y/o,still a couple of seasons left in him,Could certainly use a bit of his drive.Just a loan apparently,presume to the end of the season....
  12. Havent had a TV for years,and only go to the cinema randomly.Think Ive seen Die Hard and Back to the future,not sure if all the way through though,...not seen ET.Last blockbuster I saw was at the cinema for the 3 Lord of the rings films.Struggled to stay awake during the first 2,last one was brilliant
  13. Wouldnt miss a Dons/St J game for the world In Mainer Prediction 2 - 1 Dons (Clarkson,Hayes)
  14. Am a bit past the Club stage so not sure if Joanna's is still on the go. Muckle Cross is always lively,Thunderton good too. Italian food at LA Toscana,Indian at Qismat. Good food and drink at the Mansfield,pricey kind Edit - Niece says for younger crowd Foggies or Pinz
  15. Another Donstalker succumbs to the drink....
  16. Oot Lismore 3 - 0 Dons Duk,Hayes x2....Bounce back starts here(also enjoying a good wine tonight )
  17. This not a more likely game for Miovski to do well? ie does better against the weaker teams
  18. Good to see Duncan get a run at last,and Duk and Coulson fit.Not overly pessimistic about this one for some reason Anyone got a stream?,Hesgoals off radar
  19. Think Goodwin should get til the end of the season,but he has an unhealthy enough amount of unsupporters now,and since his appt,which may hasten his departure. Current adversity might have been the making of some managers,dont think hes so thick as to not see what we see.We've a 2/3 assembled squad,signing success rate has been slightly better than previous managers.Didn't get it right in defence,the main source of our issues.Are we not as well seeing if he can rectify that before changing manager again? Anyway - Oot Furryboots - Sunny Moray Prediction - 1 - 3 Dons Bavidge x3
  20. Hadn't realised this was on at this time. The rollercoaster continues....
  21. Didn't miss much then,got what we deserved. I hope by the margin of defeat JG doesn't think those tactics might be worth another try.Surely knows it could have been 4 or 5. 19℅ possession?? In for the Hun game.
  22. Good to see Johnny back in contention. Will take a low scoring defeat at this point,anything else a bonus. COYR
  23. Away this weekend.Also not confident about both either games.If we can stumble along til the January window without humiliation,and bolster our weak areas with a couple of decent signings (or loans if nothing decent available),maybe sell/move on a player or 2.Enough to continue the general upward trajectory Do we think Stewart might be keepable if we can improve the right side of defence?
  24. Aye.about as successful as the Sheerin/Whyte combo
  25. And a younger striker to keep Bavidge on his toes.,... https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/sport/football/news/aberdeen-hotshot-lewis-pirie-told-25624025
