  1. I totally agree, I think this is his purpose and he's doing fine. Much like Derek Young.
  2. Whilst I agree its lunacy, and I hark back to my previous post, Has Bagshaw been picked up by anyone else? Maybe with the right development he would have become a player, but unfortunaltely we will never know. What is more worrying is that other SPL clubs are looking at some of the ones we have just released, which tells me they know what the fans know but AFC do not. In fairness the Duff, according to reports he has been pretty good in the last 3 games. Having only been at the Celtic game I can only comment on that one, but I certainly thought he had a very good game that day. I had to sit a think about whether or not what I was seeing was true.
  3. He'd be a useless signing, he'd be on the stretcher all the time!
  4. I'm not going to lie, I don't want to see Rangers winning the quad, because living in Glasgow will be hell after that. However, that is of minor significance to me, I just want Aberdeen to finish the season as strongly as possible, if that means we get into Europe, then great!
  5. Bit of a shame the huns couldn't do the business but as I said, it now means the game at Pittodrie is crucial for them providing they both win all their games. I'm slightly more nervous now. Still, at least weve won two games post split!
  6. I decided not to bother and do work instead. As TF said yesterday, looks like the infirm could cock this up for us Though a point isn't the end of the world.
  7. Haha Doh, didn't spot that. So its either hibs draw or united draw, don't know which I prefer
  8. Cannot disagree with any of that. Thing is, I've always said I thought he was a good player, it just continues to baffle me (well maybe not) that he doesn't get a game. He has so much composure on the ball, which is something we've been lacking this season. What happens now when Zander gets back? Does he stay out? Or go straight back into a winning team?
  9. I thought Rangers had to drop points somewhere along the way? But I'll take it you've got that right anyway Ajja, I like the looks of that! I was talking to a tim yesterday and he couldn't understand why I wanted Rangers to win every game apart from the last one at Pittodrie. Fool. It would be an absolutely phenomenal way to end the season, good to see we're finally trying!
  10. The season has been going on so long now that I feel that I have aged sufficiently for me to reach puberty and grow facial hair Actualy, I don't think I'll ever be able to grow any!
  11. I don't recall such a game
  12. Come on Aberdeen!!! I'm definitely dreaming. Why not eh! As has been mentioned, even if we can finish above the Arabs, that would make me pwoud and laugh Definitely need the Huns to keep their jammy run up!
  13. Come on Aberdeen...Don't throw this away! Bus on Edit: YASSSSS woohoo, Come on you REDS!!! Keep it up! I couldn't handle those last few minutes!
  14. Ah thats why she's feeling a bit deflated
  15. Sounds like we were hanging on at the end there! Keep it up Aberdeen!!!
  16. Aren't you the epitomy of "modern man"!
  17. COME ON EWE REDS! Keep it up!
  18. Weird start to the game. Dons playing football!
  19. Bare bones springs to mind
  20. Celtic were absolutely dire! I coudln't believe it, even in the last minute they nearly equalised! Oh well, the dream is still on! Come on you Reds! We can do this! Make us pwoud!
  21. As I've said before, throughout the JC era, none moreso than this season, will be remembered by me as a "what if" season.
  22. This is the worrying thing, Ryan Strachan was suppoed to be a good player, yet we release him. I keep telling myself, how many of these players develope to haunt us and become better players elsewhere. So far, *touch wood* none have, but the whole situation is quite worrying really. These are supposed to be our better youngsters, but are still not good enough?!?! I hope we see the fruits of our youth setup revamp in the next few years. We need it. As for squad filling, as you said RR, we need to fill out our squad, because we have realised this season (the boards fault) that in order to have a good cup run and league season, we cannot have a pathetically small squad like the one we currently have. It will be an interesting summer. Hopefully for the right reasons.
  23. I totally acknowledge this, but lets face it, footballers aren't the smartest, and more often than not, don't look at the bigger picture. Nicholson moreso I would have thoughtwould have stayed, family man and a settled family man at that. But what do I know. But more importantly money talks to footballers and to most people. I'm not saying I would do it, but thats probably because I have red spectacles on.
  24. Totally agree, its only natural for people to try and better themselves financially. They have a shorter career than most people so have to get as much as possible in a short period. I know I would prefer a player to stay with the club because they love the club, and I think he's an important piece of it, but I don't begrudge him seeking a better deal. The club have to accept it and find a replacement for him, which we hope they are doing so.
