Aye, that and Wrights goal were the only memorable things about that game. Though I recall Ajja maintaining that it was a fluke.

Ha ha dave_min thats just cruel Edit: on a side note, its a Shite ground and no atmosphere at all. I was cold as Fuck when i went last season.

Will there be online highlights of the game at all? I tried to see them on SSN yesterday, but seemed to miss them whenever they "reported" on the Scottish Cup.

Raith for me. May try to make it up. airdrie are scum and as has been mentioned it would only bring out the worst in both supports.

I didn't know it had been 11 months since his last goal Well done to him, sounded like he's worked his arse off for that goal today. COME ON YOU REDS.

Interesting if true! I'm not used to us having deals sorted out this early in January

Surely just links to his twitter page I doubt it will be anything major, though, that said, it is silly season, so who knows.

Still happens on my mobile can't remember the last time it happened when i was using my computer though.

come on you reds!

I thought someone said he was gash at rb? Well if it doesn't and we can afford it then fair play. We need as many players as we can get what with our boys being hell bent on getting sent off every game!

To be fair rocknroll, its not like we've not been linked or even been in talks with decent players, invariably we have either fucked up or its been ridiculous speculation. I would love it if we signed barr and as has been mentioned earlier on it must signal the end for someone at afc. Though the news of scott dobbie had me worried there! Good old ee

To be honest, its not worked out and i'm quite disappointed. I really thought he would fill the void left by Barry Nicholson, but he just hasn't been able to make the step up. Showed promise but I think its best he moves on. Enjoy the SFL!

Agreed, he's stepped up to the plate this season. I thought he was much improved last season.

Happy birthday to you both. Are you as auld as big al yet stewart?

very valid points though. The problem with aberdeen fans, and probably most football fans these days is they can't be arsed. I think the ultras were an asset to the club and we the fans are the ones that will suffer. Mizer, you say that, and i know it happens because its happened when I've been singing them with you, but at least there was singing. The club fucked up at limiting their displays and moving them to the y was the final nail in their coffin. I appreciated the effort they put in despite not necessarily agreeing with their attitude at times.

Kow i take it your were talking about fulham getting humped 3 nil away to stoke! i read in a paper somewhere that hodgeson is being lined up as the next england manager when capello leaves.

Agree. I think they certainly contributed towards the atmosphere at Pittodrie and I for one will be sad to see them go. The club has finally got their wish

Who?

I think it was mentioned in the match thread mentor. Someone from the hat's father. Thoughts with their family.

Fully deserved as well, another great cup tie today! BigAl, my biggest worry is, that no-one with any power or sway seems to be bothered?!? So if the ones in charge won't/don't do anything about it we're pretty much fucked for the time being. Dallas and the SFA are being ridiculously pig headed. Call me cynical/realistic but until both cheeks of the infirm get done with the same inconsistent hand we seem to be getting dealt every game, there is even less likely of anything happening.

Completely agree with you funster. Its very disheartening that the sfa cannot admit to its failings with regards to this. The game is not about the referee, but they all seem to want to be the next Fucking collina!

But thats the thing, I haven't seen a huge media outcry about this? Or maybe i'm reading the wrong papers. Re Hugh Dallas, he most certainly has. Not sure what the hell he's doing, but its going wrong, and drastically so! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/leagues/scottishpremier/rangers/6212231/Scottish-referees-chief-Hugh-Dallas-dismisses-talk-of-clampdown.html

I think I read on MAD (not sure if it was Mackie) that he clattered someone into the advertising hoardings? But apparently had the same done to him but the opposition player didn't get booked.

Maybe its the SPL's new pr campaign "SPL. More reds than neds" Seems like they (the referee's) are trying to get some media attention, because some of the decisions have been quite frankly embarrassing.

^^^^ What he said! You can just see it in Beckford, he acts like an arse but is a great finisher. Edit: Just seen this on BBC sport's live text on the Edinburgh Derby
