Haha. Ricky Gillies was referred to as a Million Dollar Star when he signed for New Zealand's Hawkes Bay United. He couldnae even get a regular game for them!!!!!

Does Bluto work for Sizzlers? I banned them both fae DT a couple of years ago for being absolutely arrogant wankers. I heard both of them were actually banned fae the Red Ultras bus too ... likewise for being wankers! Guess they've never really changed from their childhood days when they used to take on 6 year olds at footy. Nae really fair when they were 15 and 17 respectively.

Haha! I had to vote Winters. I'll never forget his save against Kanchelskis. Priceless! I mind watching that final in a pub in Edinburgh. Some innocent bystander happened to wander in half way through the match and said "who's that shite in goals for Aberdeen?" I turned around and said "Robbie Winters" He said "Robbie Winters? The striker?!" At that point, he started cheering for Aberdeen.

Gordon, it's not who tries the hardest that wins the game. It's who scores the most! Simple. In six of the past seven matches, your team have failed to score the most. Simple! Just like the 60,000 bigots that fill Celtic Park every fortnight ... simple.

I'd love it if we didn't have brand logos all over the club shirts. Yes, the Apex ones have been quite tastefully designed. But I think they are the exception to the rule. All the other ones we've had over the years have been horrendous ... especially those HUGE Atlantic Telecom blobs in the late 90s. I think the shirts look a hell of a lot better without the sponsorship logos

If Darren Young was a footballer, he'd be amazing

How the fuck did all this come from an enquiry about the availability of a towel??? Since when did we become KKK Chat? If there was a smiley getting its face slapped with a fish, then you guys would be getting it.

Think we need to alter that song mizer. Giving the lad a bit too much credit there! Theres only one Chris Maguire, Theres only one Chris Maguire, He's usually shite, but today he's alright, Walking in a bebo wonder land, Theres only one Chris Maguire.............

... only for that red shirted player to be Darren Young, who would then let the ball bounce off his heel and straight back to the opposition.

I liked Cameron as a player. But I mind the game that was being talked as Cameron's big comeback game for Hearts after being out for ages thru injury. This was supposed to be the game when he would come back, take control of the Hearts midfield and swipe Aberdeen aside. That game also happened to be Paul Bernard's first game back after yet another lengthy injury. Bernard completely outclassed Cameron to the point that the Hearts midfield hardly had a touch of the ball all day.

Deloumeaux was immense. Ultra-calm and collected on the field. Very accomplished. I mind the home and away matches against Hertha Berlin, he had Marcelinho in his back pocket. It was only when Eric went off injured half way through the second leg that Marcelinho could finally work his magic.

I don't know what Billy Dodds you used to watch, but the one I used to watch scored more regularly than anyone we've had since him (with the exception of Stavrum). From memory, Craig Brown promised him a place in the Scotland squad if he scored a hattrick for the Dons. From memory, he managed that feit in the very following Dons match. Also from memory, he was the last Aberdeen player to score a hattrick in Europe. Name a Dons player since then who has been more, or even as consistent than him.

For visiting Livi Meadowbank Wank wank wank Meadowbank Wank wank wank I would print the crude ones made up by us (or Jager) about Jim Baxter, but The Record/Charlie Allan would have a field day!

Nae saying I want him back here. Just I've heard that he WILL be back here. If a talent like Lovell cannae produce the goods for us, I cannae imagine an average striker like Wyness will do half as well. But we need a striker who can do the job. We need to spend BIG to get a decent man in. Cos let's face it, we've not really had a QUALITY striker since Dodds left for United. Sure, Stavrum scored a heap of goals for us. But most of them came off his arse, knee, shin, back of his head. Doddsy knew exactly where each and every strike was going. And he could create a top-notch goal all on his own. We need to think BIG for our next striker

Mate, most people skinned us at our infamous Stoney Leisure Centre 5's. But Duncan certainly didnae seem too good a talent at Mackie compared to what I remember seeing. Every weekend I used to sit peerin oot of one of the upstairs windows of my house which looked onto Caronhill School grounds. Duncan, his brother, the two Russos and a few others would play footy there every single waking hour. Whenever there was a ball on that field, they'd be there. I'll give him this much credit, football was his absolute passion. But he most certainly wasn't the best talent amongst his group of friends ... and this was only a year or so before he got picked for Scotland Schoolboys.

Not necessarily. I'm just going by what is doing the rounds on the rumour-mill at the moment. And currently, Wyness to Pittodrie is the latest one I've heard ... along with Lovell to Kilmarnock. Out of interest, I always thought Wyness was an up and coming striker. Didnae realise the focker was 31 years old!!! Shit! He's almost retired!!!!!

Though Wyness has seemingly rejected a contract with ICT, hence why he was left out of the squad last week. Perhaps Pittodrie-bound?

IIRC he actually captained Scotland that day too, did he not? Didn't he score?

That prick Duncan and his mates used to steal strawberries fae my dad's garden every summer. Wee prick. He wasnae even the best footballer in his group of mates, nevermind the best talent in Stoney. There were MANY better talents than him in Stoney (Jamie Buchan excluded)... fuck knows how he managed to get into the SPL.

Nae sure. My auld man's 60th was last weekend. If I'd learned of the party earlier I would've been over for that. But my mum's 60th is coming up in 2009, so I might see how the spondoolies are for that. Helps that the in-law works for Air New Zealand.

That's the thing about Lovell. We've all seen what he is capable of from his time at Dens Park. When he's on form and has the supply, he is a devastating striker. But he's never been given a fair crack of the whip!! I mean, he was the ONLY full-time Aberdeen player to score against Bayern Munich. What does he need to do to get into JC's good books? Change his name to Richie Byrne? Wear a Dunfermline top? I'd still easily have Lovell and Miller upfront than Mackie who, despite being given a start in just about every game he can make it to, is still an abysmal excuse for a footballer ... nevermind a striker!!!

I am the lucky charm. Of the past 25 or 30 Dons matches I've seen, I think I've only seen 3 losses. One to Ra Shellick, one to Plastic Whistle (3-0????) and one to Hearts in a blizzard when Steve Paterson was our manager. I think all the rest were either wins or draws. But then, the copius amounts of OVD Rum may have blurred out the bad results.

Absolute load of shite from JC. Our home form has been bloody good this season. Very few teams have come to Pittodrie this season and actually walked away with all points on offer. Of all the league, CIS Cup, Scottish Cup and UEFA matches Pittodrie has seen this season, Celtic have managed two victories, Motherwell and Hearts one apiece. Every other match has seen us either draw or win at home. Jimmy, it's not the home pitch that's the problem, it's the away form that your squad needs to sort out for next season. I count four away victories all season in all competitions. That's the reason why we're in the bottom six. No home pitch can be to blame for four away wins all season!!!!

Must admit when I was still in Scotland, the 01/02 season was an awesome one. I hardly ever went to Pittodrie for the simple reason that it was the furthest ground from my house out of all the SPL grounds. Only really went there for Old Firm matches, and for "Danish Day" against Livvy. But the away matches were great fun. It was a whole day out to Dundee, Motherwell, Livvy, Glasgow or just wandering down the road to wherever in Edinburgh. It was great fun. But I really couldnae be fucked with the huge intricate journeys to Killie. What a shit-hole. What a shit stadium. And the Dons NEVER EVER put in a performance in Ayrshire. Must be the shiteness that is Ayrshire. But part of the entertainment was the fact that we were shit-hot on the road back then. The seasons following that were a nightmare ... to the point that we just couldnae be bothered going to any of the matches anymore. Saturdays were filled better just sitting in the boozer or just sitting watching Ceefax and listening to Sportsound.

Whytes is nae bad in Dundee for a bit of the old "aye? get tae fuck ye Dundee mink" banter with the opposition fans. Do they still let away fans intae Whytes? But the past couple of times I've been in Dundee it's been the Centenary all the way. What a volume that place can generate!!! Especially when "when the moon hits yer eyes like a big pizza pie ... that's a mullet" gets sung. Some other places worthy (or not) of a mention include the Elizabethan in Dunfermline ... cos it's the only bar in Dunfermline that's within 25miles of the stadium. Bubbles in Livingston ... see reason given for Dunfermline. St Johnstone .... errr .... err .... help me on this one. I cannae seem to remember there ever being a bar within the vicinity of McDermaid Park (sp?).
