  1. Hear fit you're saying missus, and them are the facts BUT for me it is the manor of the defeats that is getting to me coupled with the apparent inability to change our tactics accordingly during the course of a game
  2. Starting this one early this week as much to debate after Saturday's debacle in Perth. The point of the postponement of the St Mirren game was to freshen up the players and give them a break after a fairly hectic run of games. Christ almighty did that backfire spectacularly, what we got on Saturday was eleven players who looked out of sorts, tactics and a formation from McInnes that were at best puzzling and questionable and lastly proof that if we have a Plan B as to how to play then we sure as hell aren't rushing into playing it. Saturday's game is already a must win for us. We simply can't allow the likes of ICT and the DABS to open up any more of a gap on us, even this early in the season. I heard it said on Saturday that whilst we've strengthened the squad, we haven't strengthened the first team which effectively remains exactly as it was at the end of season 2013/14. There are players in our first team who simply appear to be untouchable regardless of how poorly they perform. If I was a betting man then I'd stake good money that McInnes would start exactly the same eleven this Saturday as last Saturday. Personally speaking would like to see Low get a start. What about playing him at left back ? Can he be any worse an option than Considine ? Considine is a centre back, playing him at left back is doing him no favours. If Anderson isn't fit, then Considine slots in alongside Reynolds as centre defensive pairing. Hayes at left back, might allow us a first glimpse of Jeffrey and inject further pace into the team. Lastly, McInnes claims to have high hopes for Shankland. I for one would like to see him get a chance, and I'm not talking about a five minute cameo appearance at the end of a game. Give him a half hour or so. Much to ponder..... Anyway back to Saturday's plans In Driving up A90 South Stand A nervy 2-1 (Pee Paw & Shankland ) Overnighter in Huntly
  3. Just home and agree with all of the above

    Gascoigne

    ^^^^ This.
  5. Isaac Osborne moving further away from home Signed one year deal with St Mirren
  6. EPL transfer window spending tops £700m Mental, just fucking mental It will crash and burn eventually, and by fuck will it be messy.
  7. Signed contract extension until sunmer of 2017
  8. Well ?
  9. In Swift pint somewhere within walking distance Driving home Hard fought 1-0 (Rooney) Beers & Take away.
  10. Sally: Hi Bazza, ony chance o letting Big Boydy get among the goals tonight. His confidence is suffering a little Fergushun: Aye nae bother Coisty, will three do him You could have scripted it
  11. First tie is a cracker The Buckie lot are in for a culture shock going to Auchinleck Saw Huntly play there about five years ago with a full ground baying for blood. Despite Talbot winning 4-3, the referee required a police escort off the pitch at full time.
  12. Have to say I am hugely surprised by that. No doubt the bog munchers will view it as victimisation
  13. Just seen the highlights, Magennis is still shite Three year contract Going to be a long season for Killie. With any luck Michael Johnston will get two games against his beloved Zombies next season....in the Championship
  14. Cliff Richard's house raided by police investigating claims of incident in the 1980's
  15. Waste of time....it's all about the money nowadays On a seperate matter..... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/28790834 "IF" ffs Delia, if you've not got any sensible to say, just say fuck all. Didn't take him long did it ?
  16. New season, same old shit.
  17. The 0-3 defeat to the Arabs wasn't the first game of the season. I am almost certain that it was around Nov/Dec time and sure we'd already played and beaten them at Tannalice earlier in the season
  18. Hopefully today will be the first sighting of Jeffrey in an Aberdeen shirt (excluding appearance for U20s at Elgin)
  19. Out Home Home 2-0 ( Goodwillie & McGinn) Beers.
  20. Last three games, two goals scored, twelve conceded, two red cards, pumped oot of Chumpions League qualifiers, £15m wind fall thrown away. All going swimmingly for Delia Good times indeed
  21. Rules: 1. One name per points tally for the season, first come first served! 2. Allowed to change guess at any point as along as it is to an empty tally 90 89 88 87 86 85 84 83 82 81 80 79 78 77 76 75 74 - BigAl 73 72 71 70 69 68 67 66 65 64 63 62 61 60 59 58 57 56 55 54 53 52 51 50 - Nellie The Don 49 48 47 46 45 44 43 42 41 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20
  22. Given the likely number of travelling supporters, surely we should have put them in the main stand. If full "away" section allocated to the Spaniards then that is going to result in to result in the loss of a right few quid for AFC.
  23. Apparently negotiations ongoing
  24. BT Sport ?
  25. 6-1 LOL Ambrose red carded for second game in a row Double LOL
