  2. I mind the auld auld DonsTalk pre-match pissup about 8 or 9 years ago. BobbyB: "Hi I'm Bobbybiscuit" Cuervo: "Hi I'm Macca-Speak" BobbyB: <awkward silence> "... is that right then?!" <Bobby looks away in disgust, seeking solitude in his glass of vodka Cuervo: "Nah min, as if! I'm Cuervo" BobbyB: <laughs> "You fuckwit!"
  3. So ... does Mulgrew get to play on Sunday?
  4. Dust out the passports? If we get into Europe, yer gonna pretty much have to take yer passport with you to the Hibs game at Pittodrie, such is the short timeframe between the end of the season and the start of the qualifiers.
  5. Reckon we'll win vs HIVs. Reckon Huns will lose to United Shellick vs Pink Huns I couldnae gie a flying fuck about. Inverness to get relegated. Although it's impossible, I'd LOVE to see Killie going down. They've LONG overstayed their welcome in the SPL. Mathematically, Helen Mirren aren't safe yet. But it would require Falkirk to win by 4 clear goals, and Helen to lose before they went down. Hence, I reckon ICT don't have the bottle to stay up this season, especially against a Falkirk side who thrive on scrapping ... not to mention the ICT squad isn't exactly on happy terms with one another.
  6. Haha! Lafferty was a right panzy, right enough!
  7. You don't have to word it that way, tlg1903. You don't have to say you want Rangers to win. You can safely get away with simply saying "I want United to lose"
  8. How come it looked good fae where you were? Were you nae in the away end?
  9. Stewart McKimmie or Gazza?
  10. Loved Scotty Booth's comment as Lafferty got subbed: "He's not exactly had a match to remember, has he?"
  11. By the looks of things, they've pretty much mastered that skill, GS
  12. Quite pathetic really. Even Walter Smith admits Lafferty was wrong and could face a club fine as a result. Jimmy, back your own fuckin players up. And when I say "your own fuckin players", I ain't referring to the team you support, rather the team who employs you! Are we really surprised? How many Aberdeen keepers get crocked by the huns? Mind you, with Sally McMoist as their assistant coach, those huns are learning from the master of Dons-keeper-crocking.
  13. Nah you're not the only one mate. He had a very good game, as did most players in red shirts, tbh. But his miss was what dropped him off my MOTM mentions.
  14. There were several contenders. Pawlett had some moments of joy, including an instinctive Jess-like strike that almost had the hun keeper beaten. Paton was very impressive for me. He didn't seem scared of the occasion whatsoever. Took on opposition players like they were training-cones. And he took his goal well. Vidal had a brilliant game in defence. I lost count of the amount of 50-50 challenges that he went into and came out with the ball. Langfield made some brilliant saves and was brave to carry on after yet another horrific challenge by a Rangers player on an Aberdeen keeper (mind you, Ally McCoist is their assistant coach, so I suppose they've just learned it from the master). Seve was back to his best. He made us tick and keep moving. However, Aluko wins it for me. He was incredible powerful and his vision was amazing. Hoofing balls over to the opposite wing where nobody but him could see one of his own players. His power saw him push off a number of challenges whilst remaining on his feet.
  15. Still. Pawlett's strike! Awesome, instinctive effort. Almost Jess-like instincts. Mackie would've ballooned that effort. I've been impressed with the 1st half. We gave a good account of ourselves defensively and in midfield, and have had sprinkled the huns goal with a few shots too. Lets hope for the same effort in the 2nd half
  16. Is it just me who realises we're in a recession? What makes everyone think Aberdeen are immune to financial downturns? I'm sure we're not the only SPL club struggling to keep ahold of the players that fill up our senior squad.
  17. Can only bump up his profile, price and experience. So a month out is a small price for us to pay for having a player gain that sort on their CV.
  18. Glad to hear it's Toronto who are looking to sign him. I would hate to see him line up against us in the SPL for Hibs or United or someone like that. Sods law, whoever signs him will immediately figure out why he gets injured so often, come up with a crazy idea to fix it "like a raised insert on his boot" (who would've thought that was the solution to Boothy's issues) and he'll pop three goals past us cos we don't have a fuckin clue how to defend against him.

  21. Yeah, but at least we got into Europe on merit of us reaching the final of the country's main cup competition. Getting in to Europe because your team is "nice" and your fans are "nice" should not be grounds for entry into Europe. Maybe a Blue Peter badge would be more appropriate

  23. I don't agree with this. I mind when we were in the running for a fair-play Euro place a few years ago (was it the 99-00 season?). We were the "fairest" team in the league. In my view it was cos we were so shite, we just couldnae get near the ball to actually try to tackle anyone. Maybe a financial incentive for the most fair team in the most fair nation. But a Euro place? Nah, that's just a joke. Motherwell will get tanned in Europe. Do we really want a bottom six team ruining the hard work th at was done to bring Scotland's co-efficient up last year? Sure, winners and/or cup runners up. But a team that has come nowhere near to winning anything?? I'd rather we were there on merit.
