Managed to get most of the game this morning, felt like we were definitely riding Lady Luck in the first half. They should have been streets ahead but somehow, they weren’t. That goal from Duk was sublime, given where we were possession and intensity wise. The team dug deep, subs were well timed and all had positive impacts on the result overall. Happy fucking days! Dons and and nix wins don’t happen very often. If he continues to make the positive progress, would be hard to argue with him (Robson) being given the job permanently. Re: stuff being chucked at Goodwin? Ffs, we’re not huns. Not acceptable behaviour. love that video of Gorter, Tom! What a shitebag

As long as we get the snow loadings on the roof right

I think it’ll now be 1-0 United with mulgrew scoring the winner. Nothing else for it now.

I see there was a fan zone on Saturday, did anyone on here go? Was it any good? Can imagine it being geared for families, but was it any good? Always thought the club would try and buy the broadhill, which was demolished last week I think?

Really had hoped that they’d be keeping fox and seeing what he’d do for this game. Their fall has been dramatic to say the least, didn’t expect them to be where they are but none of that matters unless we get the three points. Last weekend was a good start, albeit a nervous one. Hopefully it’s given them a degree of confidence, despite this fixture being away. same defensive line up as last weekend? No reason to bring scales back in just yet, is there? out bed hopefully watching but likely prepping for boys’ 3rd birthday park or play centre (oh life). 2-1 dons, miovski and clarkson

ffs, wanted him to get the dunt post “derby”.

Seeing a lot of plaudits for our new centre back pairing, justified? A few folk on Twitter saying what if we’d had them from the start?

Last season it was fairly dominated by Ramirez (skewed by early form) and Fergie (who was fairly consistent through the season). So hopefully see a bit more of a spread this season. Still not sure where our goals are going to come from, really need to get another striker in, regardless of whether Ramirez stays or goes. forwards: Duk - 18 Miovski - 18 Ramirez - 3 Watkins - 1 midfielders: Barron - 1 Besuijen - 7 Clarkson - 6 Duncan - 2 Kennedy - 4 McCrorie - 5 Ramadani - 1 Shinniesta - 2 defenders: Hayes - 2 Pollock - 2 Stewart - 1 scales - 1 Coulson - 1 OG: Blair (but actually McCrorie) -1 Holt - 1 matthews - 1

Was definitely the voice of English football for me. Very sad news.

Guess with scales out, do we have the players for it? Just worried, yes, it worked against a truly shite Motherwell side, but livi are by far, better than them. Was also raising the question to start some more chat on the thread

Can’t see this being a good one, but as others have said, interesting to see what Robson is made of. Certainly be a good test. Not his players (granted) but they very rarely are until after a few seasons. all he needs to do is steady the ship and it’d be nice for him to be manager of us one day. Presume we won’t be playing 3-5-2 again?

Cook strait in something special, but water where we is, is fine. Apart from the rip, but you learn about that quickly.

Tim mate, who was at the game and a very level headed kinda guy, said that was one of our worst performances there in some time. Offered nothing and if we don’t get our manager right, we should be worried. Which we all know. But I found it quite disturbing that other fans know this too. wont be watching the lowlights, onwards to a much more important game against livi. Hope we have our shit together by then.

Excuse the thumb on the second, but finally managed to get out on the board today after the weeks’ crazy weather and events. You can see the top of the South Island in the background. Proper nice still day with very little swell gotta take them when they come in Wellington. Not much to see in the water today, though I did see a massive jelly fish. Was enough to put me off from falling in.

He wasn't that good at Killie either though was he?

I mean, everyone is at it. Just took us ages to find someone better than Dan fucking parks. Thank fuck those dark days are gone. don’t think it’s ever really bothered me in football either. Probably because I’ve got multi national blood myself. Certainly prefer the football rule of the grandparent link, but I guess as long as someone wants to play and meets the rules cannot wait for the France game, no wonder princess Ann is over here

Want darvel pumped. We look shite regardless as the embarrassment has already happened. Get them to fuck.

Another great win and great performance, some brilliant bits of play. Where has this team been for the duration of townsends tenure? Huge match in Paris in a fortnight’s time, especially since the French seem to be having a wobbly. Hopefully that continues until after our match.

Imagine the seethe from the Tim’s, I want it to happen just for that

Good appointment, certainly on the fan engagement side, but have doubts over the rest of his role

nah, he's called Ryan...

just keep him away from Pittodrie

Excellent game today, proper end to end stuff and it really could have gone either way. Some classic Scotland indecision and poor handling skills mixed with the sublime. Back to back victories at twickenham is no mean feat! Undefeated there since the 2017 debacle. Going to be interesting if we manage to beat wales, they always seem to have run of the green over us. A good day for sport!

Looked like a good performance from the highlights, and some great assists (and finishes) for the latter two goals. Hopefully it gives the team some much needed confidence. Had forgotten what it was like to see a dons win
