BigAl i font have a problem with opinions. But its the slagging off of scotland for no reason when they win i just dont get. It seems to be an aberdeen supporting thing to be anti-scotland results. Ive spoken about it a thousand times and heard the same old crap which is an opinion but it seems like its just jumping on the bandwagon. Why dont people say yeah i dont like the set up etc but good result. Well played scotland...instead of i hate this i hate that ive no interest but ill write on the scotland thread. Seems like hate just to hate when the team does exactly what supporters are asking for i.e. to put in a good performance and get a result...yet they still moan. I think we would make an impact if we qualified yes. Why wouldnt we? As i keep saying we are a million miles from the team last year. We have excellent talent in our youth and a great striker in Griffiths and Martin tbh. Our defence had improved ten fold which is the main factor for me. We have reached 2nd spot and come back from the dead so to speak when we were all pissed off. Isnt that a reason to have some hope? I think we will beat Slovenia and may or may not make the world cup but its hardly easy as many great footballing countries are finding out at the moment. When we get results and play well, we should surely be complimentary despite the mistakes in the past. Just too many doom and gloom merchants. Like i said..have an ipinion but dont be down on the guys on a Scotland thread who are happy for the resilts. If afc won and a few came on saying how shite we were and how dm should go (which has happened many times even though we are actually pretty succesful and enjoying our best years for some time), they would get pelters too.

Rico apologies i meant under Strachans tenor like the croatia match...poland and germany which i thought we were excellent in and the last 5 games of course to name the most obvious. We have played utter garbage too but that was down to not having the quality mixed with strachan picking the same shite. Also a special mention to Roberston who was brilliant.

Correct DD You keep wishing ill against Scotland. It seems to be working. Cheers

Absolutely brilliant result. If you don't like the national team why bother turning up on this thread? We should be celebrating and happy not gloomy as fuck. Yes things could have been different if Strachan hadn't fucked up but I believe it's time to give the guy a bit of a break. No other managers in the last 20 years nearly would have got us this far I believe. He's a wee dick yes, sfa is corrupt yes, some supporters are idiots yes(like some dons fans and every other fan base),it's in Glasgow, tough luck it won't change and it WAS a tricky group. We aren't there yet but didn't we all know it would come down to this last game, I certainly did. Strachan's been picking players in form at least and had to go with Fletcher last night (who I think is overrated for Scotland).surely he has learned some valuable lessons by going with in form players.hes learned from mistakes so surely he deserves some kudos for that. The defence is far far better , midfield I would have picked MCGregor probably or taken Bannan off who regularly chose badly with his decisions or lacked the skill and level head. We thoroughly deserved that win. 2 great chances at goal, 2 brilliant kicks hitting the upright and a possible penalty claim if not 2. They deserved to get their man sent off..cheating chunts. They're slick and technically better than us and a very decent team. We may fuck it all up on Monday, it won't be easy but at least we got this far and I'm proud of the lads. I'd rather be where we are just now than how we were looking 5 games ago even though we actually didn't play that bad. We have had some great results under Strachan but he's been incredibly stubborn and it still may have cost us a play off place.hes learned now and we'll done to him for changing things around. We should be thanking Chris Martin who once he came on caused their defence quite a few problems. Brilliant pressure to get the goal from Anyas pass and a great connection for his shot hitting the bar. If you are still not interested in Monday's game or if we qualify, don't bother replying to this post please. You're really just being a depressing bastard. Come on SCOTLAND

On the pitch its to do with players. Their formation doesnt stop them making a decent pass...a decent tackle..a decent shot on goal once they use their skill to get into a position which they CAN do irrespective of them being played wide or through the middle. Is everyone saying here that we have shit players but with the right formation every game, we should beat anyone or not lose or draw to lesser teams? Now to my other point...in direct relation to the players not performing well as a unit. Is this McInnes and his lack of drive or team talks or research on how to beat other teams before the game..at the interval or even after the game? Lack of fitness pish was referring to many fans points of view on why we were put out by Apollon and not playing very well at times. I dont buy into that.look at how much work tennis players put into their year or other athletes.many on these forums have made that excuse for poor performances. I think its shite personally. Was making relevant points and a few posters replies were unnecessary. Very patronising guys and just no need. Im done with this now.

Theyre dangerous because they have a striker at the top of his game scoring regularly making the team confident and a big threat. Something we have lacked for a while. Would you agree? Thats motherwell.what about the other teams.were they a huge threat? My point is..you cant just use the formation which isnt tertible for our last few results and europa. It is utterly to do with the performance of the players...lack of skill..lack of a decent defence and a severe lack of a decent striker. Thats very clear isnt it? Why are people making this the sole contribution and picking arguments with me when irs obvious what im saying. And rocket..you started this shit you patronising fool. Read your posts

Sorry min but you dont know much about football if you dont understand that yes, a bad formation can obviously upset balance and performance but that a good team of players should be able to still gwt a good rrsult AND performance against the lower teams of that league. You getting it now?

See there you go again. Can you comprehend anything written or is your other bad brain part taking over? Oh oh.

You have proved time and again that you are a bit insane. You spout pish about the fans eveey week and you obviously support Kilmarnock and are not a dons fan at all. Your taste in music is abhorrent and I happened to disagree with one song u liked so you now have some pathetic agenda towards me. Why dont u go back to your asylum room and stop being a cunt.

Now ur talking shite. I didnt say that at all. I said people were blaming players not being fit for poor results. I didnt believe that to be true against apollon etc. Im still really upset u wont be my friend in real life ya zoomfuck.

But its the players lack of skill and communication too if theyre not performing as individuals. Formations can be blamed but only so much. 1-2s and shots on target and goals should still be achieved if they have the skill.

Rocket chill the fuck out. How about that?

I wasnt talkin dms tactics . I was saying there is unrest in the team due to him perhaps.

I just don't get it. We have seen GMS play very well for the Dons. I can say the same for Wright, Stewart, Christie, McLean, Ball, Ross, Rooney, Logan, Lewis, Considine, OConnor, Shinnie and May. Can they all be playing shit at the same time for a number of games? (Maybe not Christie or Lewis). I asked the question after the Apollon game and though didn't panic, presumed something wasn't quite right in the squad. I don't buy the balance argument or fitness pish. I'm going to stick my neck out and probably get hammered for this but gonna say that McInnes is at fault here. Either he is pissing people off, mixing players and positions up too much or just inept or bored. Whatever it is, sort it out fast or we are fucked in the next month. (P.s. Why are we not playing better teams pre-season?)

Why the fuck not bring on some of our young talent if tinkering with the team. Theyre better than our regulars atm. I cant sleep Dm is a bit of a dressing room pussy or the players arent happy

Least this performance is helping me get back to sleep. ZZZZzzzzzzzzzz. Cheers AFC

Ha yeah oxford. Just depressing to hear. We cant win every game but why no skill or fight? I was really hopeful after the window closed that we DM had managed to get some good players. I was wrong.

Well im going back to sleep. I said we have problems after what..6 games.pre season included. The signs have been there as many have said. Our team just aint good enough.

Exactly slim. Utter pish results.

2-0 us or them. Im gonna go us for no reason at all. Christie and May.

Fixed it Manc

I shall be really pissed off if you are right.

Lewis Logan OConnor Arnie considine Ball. shinnie Stewart Christie GMS May I would drop McLean and Christie should play through the middle. We seem to have lost a lot of our fluency and need to get it back. Are DMs team talks too nice. Why do I feel the team need a huge kick up the arse?

Absolutely not racist. I can categorically state that white men have big dicks too. I don't shake mine after the toilet, I just kick it.

Aye i wonder if hes tinkering with these first few games and now knows what team to pick. However, if he's been doing that for these first 6 games, wouldnt you think he would try out Campbell, McKenna, Ross or Harvie too?
