  1. He puts the HATE in HATELY
  2. After that, you'll have a quiet paddle in the sea
  3. Nah, I've had statistic-reporting running on this site since about April/May. Some pointless stats on there, but some of it's useful
  4. Not with that attitude, there won't!
  5. Statistics are like miniskirts. You see, it's now been 53 years since the Old Firm last managed to take maximum points off Aberdeen in a season.
  6. I'm pretty sure Aberdeen accepts both of these kinds of transportation methods ...
  7. Some pointless statistics about the Donstalk users: The past 3 days has seen 773 unique people visit DonsTalk.

  8. Imagine that floating towards you! Awesome!! Is this a chair? Or the horrible result of genetic engineering?
  9. The text-entering area is a WYSIWYG area. Whatever you put in there comes out the other end. I put a whole load of shite in there, and a picture of the 2009-10 Rangers squad came out the other end
  10. Good strong running from Davy Claude Angan for the first goal too! But I like Obiefule's touch to get away from his marker. And very nicely taken goal.
  11. Rougvie was immense. Snelders was immense. Charlie Nic was immense. As good as he was, I wouldn't put Heikennen in the same category as these players. Don't get me wrong, he was good. But I think he was made to look even better than he really was because he had people like Rutkiewicz, Muirhead, Morrison and Hinds in the same team as him. And Pele's comments regarding Skovdahl's wage offers are unfair. Remember, Skovdahl was in charge of the club before, during and after the collapse of ITV-Digital. That collapse was felt right across the UK, regardless of the fact that Scotland was not a part of the ITV-Digital deal. But prior to the collapse, there's no reason why Skovdahl wouldn't have been able to offer £4k deals to the likes of Stavrum, Bisconti and Anderson. But "Pele" was probably too pissed to work that bit out.
  12. I reckon this is an excellent move by McGhee. Hibs continually stick high pricetags on their players and earn decent fees from their sales. Likewise Hearts stuck a stupid price on Craig Gordon, and got pretty much all of that coin when Sunderland came a-calling. If McGhee sticks this £10m tag on Fyvie ... SOMEONE with money to burn is gonna come sniffing. Dons demand high Fyvie feeMcGhee determined to ward off Blackburn interest in teenage starhttp://img.skysports.com/09/11/218x298/Fraser-Fyvie_2379962.jpg[/img] Fyvie: Blackburn link Aberdeen manager Mark McGhee has told Blackburn they will have to splash the cash if they want to prise away teenage star Fraser Fyvie. Reports claim the English Premier League club have been scouting the 16-year-old midfielder, who has made the first-team breakthrough this season. Fyvie has made seven Scottish Premier League appearances this term and the Dons are already trying to agree a new long-term deal with the youngster. McGhee is looking to put Fyvie's contract in line with other first-teamers and warned he would only be going if Blackburn can meet the asking price. "We have got Fraser under contract and we are negotiating to extend that," he said.Protection"That's not only from the point of view of protecting the club's position, but also from the point of view that Fraser is playing in the first team for youth-team money. That's not fair, so we are trying to address that on his behalf. "If Blackburn or anyone else are interested, in the next couple of years we are going to be building a new stadium and £10million would help towards that. "So, if they want him they can have him, I can assure you." Fyvie is currently sidelined by an ankle injury but McGhee does not expect reports of potential suitors to go to his head when he returns to action. "It's all to do with the people around him, what they are telling him and how they are reacting," added the Dons boss. Flattered"But he's a fairly well-earthed boy. He'll read it and enjoy it and I think he'll be flattered. He might get excited. "But he'll hear what I'm saying now and realise he's not going anywhere and that will be the end of it." Meanwhile, McGhee may boost his squad with the signing of Ruaidhri Higgins. The 25-year-old is available on an immediate free transfer from Derry City following their expulsion from the League of Ireland for contract irregularities. "He is a midfield player who is on trial," said McGhee. "As for any decisions, we have not even discussed it. He is training and we're looking at it him, and that's all."
  13. Saw the Daily Rangers' player-ratings. Who the hell let this go to print?? It actually praises Aberdeen! FFS sack that clown! ABERDEEN Jamie Langfield 6 Stunning second-half stop to deny Boyd but had very little else to deal with. Maurice Ross 6 Full of running on right. Defended solidly but sloppy at times with his distribution. Richard Foster 6 One of two full-backs at centre-half. Struggled with his positioning at times but had the pace to get out of bother. Charlie Mulgrew 7 Did his best to organise defence and used ball well. Stopped Novo netting equaliser. Davide Grassi 7 Brought in at last minute. Looked ring rusty at first but grew in confidence. Peter Pawlett 9 Absolutely outstanding from the first minute. Lightning fast with superb feet and composure way beyond his years Mark Kerr 6 Had been enjoying superb game until sent off for two heavy tackles on Naismith. Derek Young 8 Superb. His first start of season but got through lot of the dog's work as Aberdeen hustled Rangers out of their stride. Michael Paton 9 Had Whittaker on toast to set up Miller's opener , then put in a heroic shift helping his team keep Rangers out. A real gem. Lee Miller 9 Top-class performance. Touch and hold-up play excellent and topped it all with a goal. Chris Maguire 7 Incredible energy. Buzzed around and always gave Miller the support he needed. Subs: Stuart Duff - on for Maguire after Kerr's red card. Helped keep Aberdeen solid, 4. Darren Mackie - given last five minutes, 2. RANGERS Allan McGregor 6 Can't be faulted for Miller's goal and hardly had another save to make. Steven Whittaker 4 His nightmarish run continues. Skinned by Paton for goal and confidence shot to bits. David Weir 5 Struggled to cope with Miller. It's not often the veteran gets such a hard time in SPL. (time to retire, old man. Second thoughts, stay where you are!) Danny Wilson 7 Probably the only Rangers player who deserved pass marks. Another great show. Sasa Papac 6 Looked to be going through the motions at times - and doing so too slowly to keep up with Pawlett. Steven Davis 6 Deployed wide on the right which made no sense. Tried best but grew in frustration. Steven Naismith 5 Must be in serious danger of forgetting his true position. Clue - it's not centre midfield. Lee McCulloch 6 Swamped in the centre of midfield. Didn't hide but needed help. John Fleck 5 Offered almost nothing on left until late on. Outshone by Pawlett on same flank. (and yet he is still rated several million pounds higher than Pawlett! ) Kris Boyd 5 Way off the pace in the first half and missed a string of chances in the second. Kyle Lafferty 3 Oh dear. Only got 45 minutes but it seemed to last days. Agonising performance. Subs: Kenny Miller - on at break. Added urgency to forward play but then faded, 4. Nacho Novo - showed enough to suggest he deserves a start, 4. Madjid Bougherra - mercifully sent on for Whittaker in 75 minutes. Could possibly be set for a run at right-back, 3. THE MANAGERS Mark McGhee: This was the Aberdeen manager's first ever victory over Walter Smith. He earned it. 8 Walter Smith: Must take his share of the blame for this defeat. Got his starting line-up wrong. 4 THE MAN IN BLACK Craig Thomson's first big iffy decision was to deny Rangers a penalty (bullshit). The whistler had no option in sending off Mark Kerr (again, bullshit) but began to unravel from that moment on. 4 MAN OF THE MATCH Lee Miller (Aberdeen)
  14. Works fine for me. There was 8 or 9 of us in there for the Rangers game. Have you tried on a different browser? Or a different computer?
  15. The 4th official said something to McGhee. McGhee turned to Mackie and Diamond, and the two loons cracked up.
  16. SkySports were a joke. The half-time punditry treated the scoreline from the perspective that Rangers were losing 1-0, and were hard-done by with the non-penalty decision. Not a mention of the fact that Aberdeen were WINNING 1-0. The only saving grace for SkySports was the fact that Scotty Booth did his best to redress the balance by talking Aberdeen up at every given opportunity. Good on ye, Boothy!
  17. VERY proud of that Aberdeen team today. Langfield did well with most things chucked at him. Miller scored ... and won just about everything that came his way (he must be up for contract renewal or something) Pawlett and Paton (and even Maguire) were awesome today. Full of running and skill, and were running circles around the huns' grampas. Even Young had a pretty good game But Kerr got MOTM from me. Simply outstanding. He ran the show for us. This was made even more obvious when he went off to get stitches in his knee, cos we disappeared for that 7 minute period. No way was his challenge worthy of a second-yellow. It was a foul, yes. But it wasn't a dangerous foul or a persistent foul, and there was certainly no malice in it. Typical masonic refs. Well done Aberdeen!
  18. Spot the anti-Aberdonian woman working for the Met Office! Jeeeeez. The one thing that we get awarded for, and she goes and rains (no pun intended) on our parade. Why couldn't she just comment with "yes, Aberdeen is the sunniest city in Scotland in 2004".
  19. Don't lie, GS. You've got this pic as your computer wallpaper, and whenever this topic comes up you shove this pic on Imageshack for all to view
  20. And there ends your dream. Since when did the sun ever appear in Aberdeen? Fclown
  21. Wasn't as bad as the away strip ... Only decent thing to come out of that strip was the sketch in the Red Final
  22. An old-fashioned terrace on it? Now yer talkin!!
  23. Nae meaning to sound like Mr Politically Correct here. But I'm sure said less-able-bodied individuals would gladly pay a tenner more in exchange for having a fully-functioning body. Same goes with disabled parking spaces. They are normally either free or have much longer time-limits on them than standard carparks. My missus has bad arthritis in her feet after a renal transplant ten years ago, and nothing fucks her off more than seeing a lazy, perfectly-able person parking in the last disabled space just because said person can't be bothered hunting for a regular space. As she says "you can have my reduced price parking space on the condition that you also have my disability".
  24. This from SkySports: Aberdeen manager Mark McGhee has conceded defeat in the club's attempts to sign USA international Stuart Holden. The Aberdeen-born midfielder is set to become a free agent as his contract with MLS side Houston Dynamo expires at the end of the month. McGhee was keen to bring the 24-year-old back to Scotland, but concedes he may be unable to match the wages on offer from rival teams. No surprise "It's no surprise that he is attracting interest from bigger clubs," McGhee told the Evening Express. "It's likely we've missed the boat on that one now because there is no way we will be able to compete with the type of wages he is likely to be offered. "It's frustrating but that's the world we live in."
