And as per the original debate, it was the shoehorning of AC into LB that was the worst managerial move, a huge detriment to AFC.

I did say that playing Shinnie in midfield was to his detriment and I stand by that. As I said, we can disagree on that point all day long. He was a fucking average footballer as a midfielder who will never win anything because he's not fucking good enough. Heart and passion and a good engine can get you a job but without any creative ability, he will never taste success. Ryan Jack a far superior footballer.

You missed the point. We were talking about Considine who McInnes shoehorned into LB and put Shinnie in midfield. We can argue all day how good or otherwise Shinnie is as a footballer. The point was that Considine was never a left back, as he said so himself on TV in the last year or two.

The same Shinnie who has started only one of the seven games post lockdown. If he's not good enough for a mid table championship side, he won't be good enough for international football. He only stood out in the SPFL for his passion and his heart but compared to a proper midfield player, he was a headless chicken. Could've been a great left back.

Bournemouth were so beautiful tonight and so unlucky. That's a team heavily odds-on to be relegated. There's the gulf in class between the EPL and the SPFL right there. It's a different planet of football.

Given that Rupert Murdoch has obvious reasons to ignore the truth, as exposed by the BBC in the first episode last night, can we rely on our elected representative to investigate and challenge the alleged corruption? Integrity matters, or at least in the NE of Scotland it always has. Time for you to decide which side of the fence you're on. History will nail and jail the wrongdoers.

My wife said that Lewis has been binned from the Tory inner sanctum as a result, something I can't corroborate as I've been too busy tonight to check the fall out. The bigger issue I hope will come out of this is that the disrespect we all have for BlowJob is also prevalent at ministerial and (Commons) member level. How could it not be? Once he loses the dressing room, his house of cards will fold very quickly, underpinned as it is with zero integrity. He could be gone within a week of any move against him. This will happen before the end of 2022 and the sooner the better. It could even go tits up for the thick cunt this year and hopefully it will. He can't dodge bullets forever and he keeps on giving too many opportunities to nail him, his complete integrity and intelligence voids being too painful to endure, even for some of the sick fucks who are Tory MP's.

This is why this publication is the only one I give money to: - https://amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/jul/15/coronavirus-contracts-government-transparency-pandemic?utm_term=Autofeed&CMP=twt_gu&utm_medium=&utm_source=Twitter&__twitter_impression=true Unlike Rupert - and you must catch the Murdoch dynasty thing on BBC iPlayer, first episode was last night on BBC2 - they publish some truthful commentary. Marina Hyde and George Monbiot never fail to challenge the systemic corruption. Like the mainstream media knows that the public are so thick they believe what they're told, the former AFC chairman exploited the stupidity of the fans for his own ends. The government steal all our money. Milne stole only from us, those of us who supported AFC over the three decades he was in control. At least I got out before Milne did, because of Milne but 23 years too late.

Radical idea that, playing Considine in the middle. When he started two decades ago and Russell Anderson was mentoring him, there was no question that it wasn't his best position. Andrew said as much in an interview last year (or perhaps 2018) broadcast on Grampian. It's obvious to anyone who knows the game. This doesn't include McInnes who has been shoehorning Consi into LB, mainly to paper over his own cracks, the midfield always being collectively weak and the tactical genius shoehorning Shinnie into the middle, again to the detriment of the player. History will judge the bearded one as a good, bad, great or shite manager. Milne decided he was great. The AFC sheeple decided to believe the chairman, himself as clueless about fitba as Donald Trump or Boris Johnson. They three share the same principal objectives of course and they ain't people, customers, sport or progress. Aberdeen got the club they deserved. American Snake oil won't fix it.

My daughter's boyfriend is keen to come along to a Cove game the next time he's in the North East after my describing what I really enjoyed about it, and what I had come to detest at AFC over a very long period spanning three decades. I'm certain that I will never watch Aberdeen for the rest of my life although I will be glued to the telly and hope they fuck the new-club-that-has-never-won-fuck-all in the opening game. After over 750 games over seven decades, they should've had a customer for life but Messrs Milne and McInnes were taking the piss. Calderwood was the first sign of trouble for me. Never went to Pittodrie for the calendar year 2007 and watching lower league fitba as I did that year, I really enjoyed it.

Mourinho had a bounce effect in his first month but he can't deny the facts. His team are shit and he is spent. Damaged goods. Get him to fuck away from the game. Was brilliant for a decade and a bit but his ego tripped him up, as it was always going to do. Unlike Clough, he was an impostor, full of his own shit.

£3m for a guy who wouldn't get a game for Cove? Mental.

Yeah. Starting every game just now. They're shit. Not good enough at this level.

A rumour that Rick Parry let slip, that the owners placed the bet in the Philippines. Perfect plot for fiction. Couldn't write it better. The players have been fighting post lockdown. Today a big test.

I wasn't expecting Spurs to be good post-lockdown. They're a poor unit and the manager may already be spent. I don't get leaving Dele Alli on the bench and starting Moura as often as he has but there's something stale and dead about the squad and probably Jose too. Poch overachieved with them and Levy still binned him. Some say Levy is the biggest problem at the club. That would not surprise me.

It happens ALL the time. Asset-strippers are a known breed. It's their raison d'etre. There's plenty of them. It's a simple way for those with big dough to add ill-gotten gains to their stack. It will never go away. It's business. Until the facts come out about the monies paid for Cormack Park, from whom the land was bought, the contractors paid to build and maintain and everything surrounding the new stadium and the disposal of Pittodrie, and until it is established that our former chairman did not benefit personally and that there was no conflict of interest, I would keep your powder dry on the prospect of unethical business practices closer to home. These type of people don't have ethics and it's perfectly legal.

If true then it was bought at a price where the disposal of the assets will produce a healthy profit. And they could be hoping for some cash injections from authorities and/or fan groups to delay the inevitable.

It's not gonna happen. Surely? He's a washed up has been who never was. I know we've got fucking idiots in this country and at every level of our game but this would be the mouldy rotten icing of a cake baked with sick. And sick in its original meaning, not the modern shite.

Nothing surprising nor bizarre. The administrators are useless clowns.

The scouse scum trashed their own city during their celebrations. I don't know if their accents screams criminality or whether the criminality of many from there discolours the accent to make it criminal by association. Either way, calm down calm down. Harry Enfield nailed their vacuousness without going into their criminality of course but the subtle implication was always there, or maybe it wasn't and it was my prejudice all along, one shared by many. Liverpool and Glasgow being the biggest per capita claimants of the sick - invalidity benefit, I think it's called - is interesting. As is their history being heavily Irish, the bigger prejudice I hold being the nature of the gypsy blood people, lawlessness being their foundation and integrity, honesty and empathy being alien concepts to the sponging selfish cunts.

Possibly the best example of his true nature: - When he lacks the energy to defend the indefensible, he knows he's a piece of shit, accepts that he's a piece of shit and likes being a piece of shit. Unaccountable to anyone his whole "privileged" life, this is narcissism on an exceptionally grand scale, Trumpian in fact. Thing is, those who made him like this - both the parents and the institutions - fail to understand that accountability, at least to notions such as truth, integrity and decency are necessary. The biggest loser will be him. I predict alcoholism, major unhappiness and an early death, probably suicide. Trump's not smart enough to know his own madness. Boris won't be able to kid himself for ever. He's been found out by the vast majority and he will catch up with us in due course.

The disunited queendom of grating britain has made another big error. By posting notice of further lockdown restrictions, following the easedom of some already, this is a bigger own goal than Citeh fucking up at the shitey bridge tonight. Failing to eliminate the reptilian Cummings was as good as saying it doesn't really matter, the same shite that Jenrick got up to. The "common sense" of the people doesn't exist, which BlowJob would've known if he was fit for purpose. The infection rate and the R numbers are going to spike bigly in July. I suspect it's already rising. Incompetence and corruption are indisputable and proven now. It only took a serious spanner or two to show the degradation of the mettle.
