I have to say, those were my immediate thoughts as well slim when i was reading that article. He best not be hoping/counting on those two pretenders to stay. It concerns me greatly that he doesn't view this as a problem position, as even if fyvie is going to start there, we'll still need someone else to play in that position. Its been a problem for years and it needs to be addressed!

Who does he play in the next round?

:o In 2 words. No thanks!

I think its just frustration more than anything. The feeling of inevitability and the almost obliviousness of everyone at the club at what was going on. Don't get me wrong my hope, optimism and passion has already started to return. I just felt completely let down by everyone bar Angus the bull.

Most of my scottish cousins were dons fans, and luckily for me one of them gave me an old away shirt and that was it. Its just grown and grown since then. As bobby says, it moulds you as a person and influences your thoughts. If i stopped i'd probably have to have crisis talks with myself. I'd have to start again. Last season the passion waned somewhat, but i don't think i was the only one.

Damn you! I've just wasted 1/2 an hour playing that

Welcome! Lets hope he's a part of what has been missing from our team.

My bad, didn't read it correctly. Fuck knows then! Its a shame, I'm still hoping they play someone remotely exciting down here. I can't believe we're playing the likes of Tamworth...is that preparing us for life in Div 1? Anyway, I agree, I didn't think we were prepared last season, doesn't seem like its exactly an intensive pre season.

Hmm...Brighton or Millwall would make sense due his previous links, but if we're around the midlands/north I wonder if it will be Wolves. Purely on his previous managerial postings. Wolves aside, though neither of the other two would fall into the "top class" category

To be honest, i can't argue with a word of that. Seems that there is a bit of pressure in the media coming Milne's way at the moment.

14-20th june

Fuck stoke. Horrible place. Get the train back up to civilisation in manchester there are going to be a fair few rucks that night.

Cts, why do you want to burst the bubble so soon? let us live in a 'dream' world a little while longer reality can come later.

Its south london Nellie Mind you, they'd get turned over out east as well. Anyway, i'm sure this rumour will turn out to be pish.

Gow? Has he been playing much for Hibs? If not you've got to question whether or not he still has the drive. But i agree with the sentiment of your statement and i'd like to hope they are.

Might even spark Aluko into some action again. If he's still here next season of course. Can't see it happening though.

Good qualifying session today for the Monaco grand prix. Gutted for Kubica who had some fantastic lap times only for webber to pip him to pole. I did find it amusing to see alonso will start from the pits

True enough, doesn't say much for the "team" does it.

Aye, cracker of a festival, recommend it to anyone!

Seriously andrew? Blimey, we may have to reconsider. But i'm not sure we'll be in a fit state to handle that after serbia. Its probably safer for us to go during the day ST, that was a great read. As i said to bb, i can't wait to go and all this has been very useful. Got sent a picture of a water fall you can swim in in korkula or some place like that. Looks amazing. We're definitely going to hvar for a day or night. Not decided much yet.

Neil harris the striker if i'm not mistaken. A hero down there. Came back from having testicular if i'm correct? I've heard plenty of horror stories about going to the new den as an away fan.

That'll surely get him a Scotland call up

I want to stage a protest against the mere thought of having a player of the season. But for the purposes of this poll, I've gone for Foster.

Nice one, nah we'll be getting a hostel haha. I doubt we'd be able to afford a hotel. We're getting the train from Belgrade to Zagreb (over nighter) then possibly spend the day in Zagreb and try and get an over nighter to Split, but if you say its fantastic then I think we'll have to scrap that and just travel during the day. We'll be looking to spend 2-3 nights in Split. I'm still hoping that Hadjuk will be at home for a Euro qualifier of some sort though probably unlikely with it being a WC year.

Fyvie for me, although thats probably a bit harsh on Pawlett. As RDU says, Paton's been pushed out wide, but he just seems a bit too inconsistent.
