Probably, but I just don't think Mulgrew warrants a place in the team at all. He has been (in true Sun styli) HORRENDOUS for a long time now and needs to be dropped to get a kick up the arse!

I actually thought Carrick had a good game. But yeah I agree with what you say about Evra, he's been very poor for a long time now. I certainly didn't see that coming but you knew United couldn't carry winning for that long a period, but as you said, just a shame it was to those scum bags from Liverpool. Hopefully United won't bottle under pressure!

Ooft. I think this was the team line up. Langfield Vidal, Diamond, Mair, Mulgrew Smith, Kerr, Seve, Aluko Wright and Maguire Surprised Mulgrew hasn't been dropped for this and that Foster hasn't been placed to do a man marking jobbie!

3-1 to the scum. Liverpool have played well but I think united have been poor today. Vidic (sent off) and Evra the stand outs. Don't know what's been wrong with the two of them today, especially Vidic as he's usually so composed. Oh well, I suppose it extends the title "race". Edit: Flock me, 4-1, Dossena. Great finish.

Possibly, had that thought earlier in the game too. I don't think they need to change much though, just need to start getting balls into the box.

Liverpool 2-1 up now, Gerrard penalty....Bloody scousers.

That in itself is a shame for us. I don't rate him very highly. Don't know much about Hivs this season, what is the rest of their backline like?

Indeed, though a win for Hibs wouldn't be the worst result in the world. Just need to hope Hibs avoid defeat!

Hibs one up in the Edinburgh derby, Fletcher with a header. Man utd - Liverpool game is pretty good so far. 1-1 now, Penalty by Ronaldo then Vidic cocked up tremendously to allow Torres through to equalise. Still a good game though, nice open football.

That is the right attitude Duffers, show it on the park like we know the team can do! Enough of this respect shite, we need to fucking fire right into them from the get go and not take our foot of the pedal! COME ON YOU REDS! :ultras:

Racist.

Totally. As much of a prick he is, he knows how to rile the media up and I found it hilarious what he did in the US senate. But yes, most definitely, he is a prick of the highest order.

Kowalski, I used to think the same thing about Vidal, but for the St Mirren game he was absolute murder. I don't want to chance him against a team that can actually score a couple against us. I agree with the comment re foster on Mcarthy for the game. Its what Foster does best, man marking the fuck out of a talented player.

I think its quite clear we don't have the strength in depth to be able to challenge for 2nd spot. However, we all know, we should have been 3rd by now or there abouts had we not thrown away a number of silly points. I think thats more the point that Kerr and probably A_L is making. Lets just hope they get our season on the tracks again by a win against Hamilton, I don't care what anyone says, our form has been shite (despite not losing many). We need to rectify this problem and start getting 3 points from games! COME ON YOU REDS!!

My thoughts exactly! But he strikes me as that kind of guy and its a reason why if Jimmy C left, I would hope he got offered the job and took up the opportunity!

This is one of the few things in this thread that makes sense! Foster and Duffers certainly are no Journeymen!

Been ok mostly for me but everynow and then recently its been working really slowly. I had a runtime error early today but it seemed to pick up again after that. Whats with all this madness!?!

Don't quite agree with that. Our form has been non existent since we beat Celtic, despite not having lost many games since then. Anyway, He does come across quite well in interviews. Always sounds like he has a lot of desire and to be honest I think it comes across in his play, possibly a bit too much at times. Good to see he's trying though. Lets hope they can get this bogey off their backs! COME ON YOU REDS!

All sounds like good news. Fingers crossed the overhaul of our youth system will pay dividens with this crop of players and many more in the future.

From BBC Gossip: Aberdeen midfielder Jamie Smith is on course to sign a new Pittodrie deal after finally recovering from long-term injury. (Various) As has been metioned before, if he stays fit, I have no problem at all with him staying, easily the best player at the club on his day. Keep is up Smith!

I think all semi's (in the Scottish Cup) are played at Hampden these days are they not? Only the CIS have sensible heads on their shoulders not to have them all played there.

What did you do with Stoney? Has his account been hacked? Speaking far too much sense

Oh how I miss the days of Bisco being in midfield but I do think our midfield is generally ok. Maybe gets bullied out of the game sometimes but the only real criticism I have is that they don't try to shoot far enough. I think McDonald is the only one who tries to shoot regularly. Mind you, even our strikers seem to be afraid of shooting at times.

Whilst I agree with what you are saying, I still felt that we should have won the game on Saturday. I do not have this "we have a devine right to beat lower league opposition etc...." but I just felt our team should have had the bottle and desire to preserve if not build upon the one goal advantage. But as you say, lower league teams are always going to be stubborn opposition for any SPL team and its no surprise that they gave us a tough game, I just wonder how much of it was brought upon ourselves. Anyway, we're still in the cup and hopefully we'll see ourselves in the semi and then the final against most probably, the orcs.
