I said the same for Scott Michie and Andrew Bagshaw. Where are they now?

Well, we all doubted we'd get 3rd place last season in the last few matches ... especially when we had to beat the Huns at the end. But as last season proves, anything is possible!!

If that ball had gone into the net, that would've been a goal! Nevermind, this Celtic replay will surely be the one that gets our season back on the rails. It's a difficult game for the Dons on paper, but of course games are not played on paper. You just never know! Most games last 90 minutes, and I'm sure this one will be no different. The key to winning matches is putting the ball in the back of the net.

Aye, it's the same timothys who had us all believe there were six inch nails in the snowballs we hurled at Petrov and Thompson. Greetin faced Timothys. Didn't they greet when Zdrillic scored against them too? ... and John Stewart???

That's what I couldnae believe! Scotland had wonderful talents in Leighton and Goram. So what the hell happened to make Walker the 3rd choice Scotland keeper??? Easily the second-worst keeper I've ever seen play for the Dons ... after Tony Warner.

Auld Peter Kjaer had a few top-drawer saves. I mind we played Livi at Almondvale in their first SPL season. David Fernandez bore down on goal with only Kjaer between him and the sticks. He shot at a strange angle and the ball was definitely goalbound, but somehow Kjaer managed to contort his body like a frigging high-jump champion to nudge the ball over the bar. Unbelievable save!!!

At least he didnae greet in a huff like Scott Severin. And at least he didnae try to start fights with his fellow teammates like Stewart McKimmie.

Well, for the thousands and thousands who are too young to remember Gothenburg first-hand, having a DVD of impressive draws against mighty teams like Dnipro and Bayern, not to mention comprehensively thrashing Danish champions FCK would be a quality addition to the AFC Shop merchandise. If anything, that's probably the biggest money-spinner that the Dons haven't latched onto yet: DVDs. We only need to look at the sheer volume of copies that were sold of the Stand Free DVD from five years ago to realise there is an apetite there for buying a bit of the club's history on video! Hell, even a season review would be bought by people like me who have lived away fae Scotland for so long and seen so few Dons matches as a result that we couldnae point to Andrew Considine if we tried!

Is Kevin Stirling the ONLY AFC Historian?? What's gonna happen when he pops his clogs? Who's gonna be the point of call when it comes to naming the leftback in the second league meeting with Killie in 1998??

I did! Admittedly this was asked when we started losing. But it was also asked before the MAJOR fallout match against Killie and Hibs.

Aye I wid! But I like to be able to taste things a week afterwards. Wi' the bovril at Pittodrie, yer taste buds get singed off wi the temperature

... and there's our conundrum. I haven't really got a definite answer that I believe will fix the problems we have at the moment. Well, I do. It involves removing EVERYONE from Aberdeen football club ... board, management team, players, pie company ... and replacing them all. Unfortunately, that ain't gonna happen unless some rich billionnaire decides he likes AFC. But WTF does Miller do? Seriously??? It was all bells and whistles when his return to Pittodrie was announced. But there's not been a single peep since then. Now, the only other executive I can think of who stayed so quiet was FORMER Director of Football Keith Birkenshaw. And nae cunt could tell me what he did either! But I can tell you that, if the scouting is falling to pieces, we're selling our most valuable assets for less than half their value, we're losing top quality players for nowt when they are publically stating they WANT to stay with us (Nicholson and Lovell, ie), and still have no answer to the training ground question that he himself posed some six years ago, then he's clearly not doing something right. Shoot me down if you like. But it's just my observations on just what (if anything) the almighty Willie Miller actually does at the club.

That's exactly what I asked about three weeks ago. WTF does Miller do? Yes he is the club's ultimate legend. But that doesn't necessarily mean he's automatically any good at doing anything else but being a world-class defender 25 years ago. I seem to remember it wasn't that long ago that he had multiple businesses in Aberdeen go into receivership. And now he's in-charge over the money we pay our most valuable assets? I think JC's time is up. But I think that is partially down to what has transpired down from WM and SM. What's WM proved in his time here?

1. Bring back John McRuvie as the PA and music selector. His wind-up songs were priceless! 2. Ban Charlie Allan. 3. Rerelease old strips from each season. Surely if they are Aberdeen's strips, then nae fuckin sports label can stop Aberdeen fae selling them, regardless of who the current strip manufacturer is! I for one reckon the JVC top would fly off the shelves. But knowing the club, they'll order 6000 copies of the dark blue Northsound strip wi' the spew on the shoulder. 4. Bring back Wee Alickie 5. Ban Charlie Allan. 6. Only allow Redz & Co back if they bin the ogres, dwarves, goblins and freaks that currently "entertain" us at half time and instead get some decent lookin burds. I mean ... 2-0 down against Killie at half time, Pittodrie Pie, 210 celcius burny burny bovril, Hobbits&Co ... hardly surprising that Jaeger keeps pissing off at half time.

Haha. Dinnae care how many people on here hate him. I thought Ebbe was brilliant. His one-liners would've been at home on stage, lol. I had sssssssooooooo hoped his grand blueprint from Brondby would work at Aberdeen. It had all the hallmarks of being a plan that would and SHOULD work. But Brondby's board were behind him all the way. Aberdeen's board were too interested in cutting corners left, right and centre whilst they kept increasing the salary of the Chief Executive.

If we can get 350k from the sale of Hart and Clark, then I reckon we can easily get 2million from the sale of the ten or so players that JC doesnae want. For a start, strip the captaincy armband fae Severin and gie it to Diamond, a man who can actually command his team from all over the park ... and nae just greet cos somebody else got the shirt he wanted against Bayern. Demoting that loon to just regular grunt player might be what he needs to start playing well again. I think we're resigned to losing Miller and Nicholson. Let's face it, Miller never wanted to be with us in the first place. Otherwise he would've chosen us over Bristol four years ago. He came to us eventually cos he didnae get his contract at Hearts and was a waste of space at Tannalice. Dinnae care how much potential he's got, he's actually WORSE than Mackie for his goalscoring record. Which brings me onto ... Mackie! Somebody have the balls to kick this little shit out of Pittodrie. I dinnae care if he's fae Kemnay. I dinnae care if he's our top scorer. He's missed FAR FAR FAR too many efforts to call himself an SPL-standard striker. The only players I think are worth keeping are: Langfield, Diamond, Severin, Lovell, Walker, Aluko and Jamie Smith. My own memories of Maybury are enough to believe we should sign him in the summer. But I may be wrong based on what I read about him from the Killie match. The rest ... they can all fuck off!

Nah. It'll be Clark and Hart wi a blow-up female lovedoll inbetween them

Don't even want us to hold them to ransom. If they can take his existing contract, I'll be happy. If we can get rid of that fat tangoman without having to pay a severance fee, then I'll be a happy man.

Don't you mean "the next Michael Owen"??

Of course I don't have a copy of JC's contract on my computer. But I remember at the time of the contract being signed that there was an article (i've done a search, but can't find the article) with a quote from JC basically saying he agreed to sign after it was agreed that, if the season took a turn for the worst, his job would not be on the line.

Eh? Anderson and McNaughton wanted to try their hands in England. Heikkinen hated the city. No amount of money can solve those three reasons for leaving. JC is pointing the finger at everyone else but him. Yet he is the common denominator in ALL our defeats. HE choses the defence. HE choses the formations. HE decides to remove Walker and bring on Duff. HE decides to sign Duff in the first place!!!! These horrendous defeats are down to him and him alone!

Why not? A one-club city whose population is only beaten by Edinburgh and Glasgow SHOULD have a huge football club with even bigger potential. The sad matter of fact is we are being outclassed by clubs who are located in TOWNS whose population leave in their droves for Ibrox and Parkhead each fortnight. Jimmy must go. Wiggy must go. Based on the horrible rumour I read in another post about Jeffries .... MILLER must go too! Bring back the Cummings Consortium and bring in Mark McGhee.

He's got to go. Killie went 15 games without a win before Sunday's match. Unfortunately, in all competitions, we have only won four matches in EIGHTEEN since beating Copenhagen. Those results have come against, St Mirren, Hamilton, Falkirk and Inverness. In these eighteen matches, yes we have scored 16 goals (I refuse to count Alan Combe's annual comedy gala moment as one of our goals). But we have lost 31!!!!! Thirtyone goals lost in eighteen games??? That's embarassing. I'm sorry, but ever since JC signed his new contract, he has had a half-arsed attitude. I was always very wary of him ever since I read that his new contract basically has a clause in it removing all blame from him and his management team, should this season go pear-shaped! Who the fuck agreed to write that in his contract????? Effectively, he could actually not turn up to work for the remainder of the season, we could lose every single match. We could play Langfield and Soutar upfront and have Aluko serving pies from the pie-stand. But Calderwood's contract basically removes all blame from him!!! Utter shambles. I'm sorry Willie Miller, but you have to bite the bullet and get rid of JC and his henchmen NOW. Give the new man (please Mark McGhee, please Mark McGhee) some time to get to know his squad in the remaining fixtures, now that relegation is out of the question (please tell me relegation is out of the question???!!!). We've seen that the squad is capable of doing the business. They just don't have any sort of motivation or guiding figure, two characteristics that a manager should display at all times, yet Calderwood is clearly not showing these. So ... demonstration time? Is it that time of year already when the red army camps outside Pittodrie and demands change? Lets do it!!!

Change his name by depoll to Chris Clark.

... and with that, I remind you all of Levski Sofia's Mr Popular ... John Inglis!
