Tyrant

As good as Scholes was I think Gerrard was every bit as good. He could score from anywhere in the final third, he'd get assists and he was probably more of an athlete than Scholes and definitely better then him defensively when required. Having said that I would have dropped Lampard and kept Gerrard and Scholes in the middle. Obviously Stevie's game has changed in the last couple of years due to him slowing down a little and it's fair to say he's adapted really well. But I still have reservations about this new contract extension that he's been offered. I'd have waited until towards the end of the new season before offering an extension. Having said that he should benefit from the rest during international breaks.

Spain is shite.

Agreed on pretty much both points. I think it was more the Groningen fans that felt they were so much better (A lot of them did anyway). I myself saw it as very much 50/50 as to who would win the tie over the two legs. I was hearing that we were as much as 9/2 to win the game at times on Thursday? Couldn't believe that. As for Langfield.... When that header went in I could have fucking throttled him. And after seeing it again I could have throttled him again. A professional goalkeeper should keep that out all day long. But the save he made in the second half (which was looking like a certain goal) definitely took the heat off of him. Although I'd also say that Logan should have done much better in making a nuisance of himself in the air when challenging for the cross. As for the trip itself.. I had a great time. Spent 2 nights in Groningen and Friday night in Amsterdam. Amsterdam is superb. Both places were to be fair. Both places were beautiful. Weather really warm (if a little damp in Amsterdam at times). Truth be told when I heard there was a minute's silence I was a little worried given the large number of mongs that often makes up our support coupled with the copious amounts of alcohol being consumed but I have to say the behaviour of Aberdeen fans for the whole trip (as far as I saw) was impeccable and the silence was perfectly observed to my relief. Although away from the game it did threaten to kick off a few times. Once in the fan park on Wednesday night which I witnessed myself. Groningen and Aberdeen fans engaged in a sing off had to be separated after the Groningen fans tried to incite a rammy by surging towards the Aberdeen fans. A few bottles went flying. And there was the whole launching a fucking bike at the pipe band thing. Fucking embarrassing behaviour. There were many Groningen fans that we chatted to were sound but there was some utter knobs. Every time we sang the Jonny Hayes song they'd changes the words to "fuck you, Aberdeen" which I could handle but their arrogance (which was unwarranted all along) made it all the sweeter that we won. And belting out "Fuck you Groningen" in the stadium was ace. Now. What pubs in Inverness will be showing the away leg on Thursday? Probably a long shot.

Indeed but we definitely are as well.

You'd have to exhume them first but fire in.

What was he saying like? I was unfortunate enough to actually miss the game.

Their showing against Bratislava some years back didn't help either. Hope to fuck they get pumped. Pricks.

Every player should be willing to stab his grunny for the chunce to play for the famous AFC football club.

I see your point but the alternative is another 300 years of governments we haven't voted for. Who are at least equally as inept may I add.

I'm sure he'll enjoy his European football there.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I don't understand how so many folk don't want their own country to govern themselves!

Has there been any confirmation of our allocation? I've entered the ballot. I think. It's been a fucking shambles thus far. I've heard B&G are guaranteed a ticket and I've also heard that they'll only get priority over others for any tickets remaining after the ballot. No cunt knows.

14,000 season ticket holders?

Really liking the teasers so far. Does anyone know if there will be more gear in the colours of the new away strip or if it's only the away strip that's left to come out? I fancy a jacket because it'll be of more use than a top in the winter months but nae sold on the ones currently there. Especially nae at £65

Just signed up for the Premier Sports deal. Mind and phone back in a month's time to cancel!

Is that an online streaming channel?

When I watched that at first I thought the guy was happy but he might actually be crying? Does anyone know the story behind that? There has to be one surely!

Hero. RIP.

A lot of folk are moaning that he doesn't look happy enough. I'll make my judgement on how hard he works for us now how many teeth he shows in the broom cupboard photo. Us Aberdeen fans don't half like moaning FFS.

So did she still say no?

He never swore. He said "Forty five minutes before the match" No idea what he was talking about though. Not that it matters to me if he swears or not.

Pleased with this. Hope Deek can get some good work out of him.

Just before the final? Do you mean the quarter-final? Haven't heard those rumours.
