  1. Scottish cup attendances (in the early rounds) have been rubbish across the board for decades now.Dont understand why,when its the only chance for most teams of a trophy. Dont think our crowd today was any worse than we've been getting in the SC of late.TV and time didnt help.Our attendances in general have been decent this season
  2. Some ropey highlights here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTttEcy1BSY Whens the draw for the next round? - After the Hearts /Hibs game tomorrow I see....
  3. Banana skin out the way.Thought going up 2 nil flattered us,and an uncomfortable afternoon was in store when they scored. Got away with it because of the quality of our front players,defensive order hopefully restored thru the week...
  4. Sportsound calling it a 'terrific' game.Aberdeens movement 'terrific',playing 'brilliant' according to Houston and Preston . ....But good words to describe that GMS goal
  5. nice one Ryan.never in doubt
  6. Storr? Nah,cracked a rib last w/e in much easier conditions.Too clumsy for a thing like the Storr
  7. ....And nice one Ryan. 2 - 0
  8. Nice one Adam...
  9. Good stuff! Stream for the game http://www.vipbox.nu/football/542492/3/aberdeen-vs-st.-mirren-live-stream-online.html
  10. Hope that deck chair doesnt restrict your view Out for this one unfortunatley.Love a bit of the SC,looks a fine day for it. COYR
  11. No reason for the back not to be straight*,but 'preciate the concern... *If I was to partake
  12. In or Oot - Late fitness test,broken rib Furryboots - Mainer Pre/post - Driving Prediction - Get an early goal,i think we'll crush them 3 - 0 McGinn,Stewart,GMS
  13. Aye,doesnt seem to be much more than the Suns speculation,and quotes elsewhere quoting the Sun
  14. Donstalk buckling under the flood of todays posts? Link to the live pre - determination hearing if interested https://aberdeen.public-i.tv/core/portal/webcast_interactive/329228
  15. Bite yer hand off for £500k,but its only the Sun reporting it,pinch of salt for now....
  16. Nice one Tyrant,lol
  17. Wasnt aware of that B 'n T album,but 3 belters right at the start On a related note,I remember liking a type of music on the radio that I hadnt heard before,and wondering what the heck you called the style of music(the boy never gave out the name at the end).Bugged me for a while til I saw a flier for a Blues n Trouble gig in town.Hadnt heard of them before but the word 'Blues' rang a bell. Popped along to the Venue(1987) for a swatch,and it turned out the blues was the genre I was unfamiliar with.Still one of the best gigs Ive been to.
  18. We've got a comparatively very good squad which has taken a number of years to build up,and reorganise at times when players have left.Splashing out on strikers from another league,and unproven in ours would be mental.Still think there are plenty goals in May and Rooney,we just havnt managed to get the right perm of players at the right times to give them proper supply.If we can get the right midfield pairing,with Shinnie at left back then working out the combo up front would be easier. On paper,our options upfront are as good as you'll get at our level,.May,Christie,GMS and Stewart are as intelligent as we've had in years IMO.Hoping were not far off from finding what makes these guys click,though a bit more caution to the wind sometimes might help,esp against the smaller teams,plus as said,they had more faith in, and supply, from Defence and midfield
  19. Knocked back an offer ,and not for sale.Hope they mean it https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/aberdeen-fc/aberdeen-knock-back-hull-city-warn-defender-scott-mckenna-not-sale/
  20. Needs a bit of work,how about 'Nwakali.....Chidi Nwakali' etc Either way,he scored a goal once,so I'm in
  21. Were we not offered Klinsmann and Trezeguet during the Aitken halcyon days? Maybe they werent better than we had at the time....
  22. That last pic does look like the 'Gorms.Reminds me of looking over the plateau from Monadh mor to the back of Cairn Toul/Devils point etc etc Had planned to blitz a lot of hills over the festive period but the amount of snow at times put a stop to that Did a fine walk with the brother in law above Dunkeld over Xmas.A circuit of local lochs(Dowally,Polney,Mill dam) etc.Around a 10 mile trip all in IMG_3639 (2) by [/url], on Flickr Frozen Loch Polney IMG_3645 by , on Flickr IMG_3643 (2) by , on Flickr Also did Ben More and Stob Binnein in deep snow.What a plowter though Parked at Ben more farm(seen further ahead),near Crianlarich,on the A85.The sign in the foreground,which is to the east, is the starter for the track along to Ben more IMG_3513 by , on Flickr Easy to follow track IMG_3436 by , on Flickr The track comes to an abrupt halt at the tree below(top slighlty right of centre) and heads steeply uphill IMG_3448 (2) by , on Flickr Eases off further up IMG_3463 by , on Flickr Stob Binnein is ascended by dropping down to the south from Ben Mores summit,to the dip between the 2 hills,and up again,to the Stobs summit .Then come back down to the dip between the hills,and aim for the track again on the floor of the glen. IMG_3476 by , on Flickr For scale,it took half an hour to get from the lowest point in the photo to the summit in the photo IMG_3507 by , on Flickr Tough hills,made tougher by the snow,but great views.6.5 hrs all in,for a normally 4 or 5 hrs trip
  23. The original singer Tim Elliott was still fronting them until very recently.Thought his lifestyle(allegedly) might have caught up with him before now,but fair play.....
  24. Anyone remember Edinburgh band,Blues n Trouble at the Venue back in the day? "The best white Blues band around" according to BB King Cherry peaches https://open.spotify.com/track/50i2MW3Z6iPH3rjoeaKua0

    Films

    Watched a couple of films at my brother in laws over Xmas.First one was a film with Lee Evans in it,called the History of Mr Polly.Left us scratching our heads at the end...'Eh?.....ach well'. Worth watching just for its unusualness 4/10 The other was about Princess' Elizabeth and Margaret having a night out in London without supervision during the VE celebrations."A royal night out" I think? Not a bad watch at all 7/10
