  1. I hope Cormack has some fucking harsh words planned with the management team. Any of the last three matches alone should have resulted in them already. Wholly unacceptable. cruising at 1-0, this is what’s wrong with him. We should t be cruising. We should be turning the screw and going for the jugular.
  2. Ffs, what truly awful turn of form. It certainly doesn’t help not having some of the creative players out, but that team should be more than capable of putting a few past st. Mirren. We will finish fourth at this rate. Which, given the state of two of the teams above us, is unacceptable.

    Coronavirus

    So what's the deal with the vaccine's. I've sort of stopped following the news as it was getting me down a fair bit (weather was horrific, even by Wellington standards in November). I presume it'll be a phased roll out? Not been much press coverage here about what happens when the vaccine becomes available and whether our borders will open it to those who have had it. I'm guessing you'd still be a potential carrier of the virus?

    Not a bad view that, Jute! Any more forecast for the weekend?
  5. Well have done pretty well out of Covid!
  6. Think this'll be a classic McInnes ground out victory post disaster week. Saints don't play bad football but given we have a few more players returning, I cannot see a repeat of the previous weekends farce. We should have Fergie and McLennan back? Not sure about McRorie given he was the one that tested positive? Anyway, nothing shy of a victory will be acceptable, i'd really hope that Cormack will knock a few coaching staff heads together. The last week has not been acceptable on any level. Out Bed Bed Bed 2-1 Dons, Hedges and Fergie( in fergie time)
  7. Always had that in his repertoire. Shame really as he really doesn't need to. Talented player in his own right.
  8. I think the way McInnes utilises a team doesn't lend itself to having a big squad. He has always over reliant on certain players that the rest are ever rarely tried and tested. The last week is a complete rarity and I agree we shouldn't build with this in mind, however, what it also shows is that the wider signing policy if fucking dog shit. That stops with him. And I mean, those outside his normal chosen team. The first XI is strong, no doubts about that, but you have to question why some of the others were signed if that's the level of their output (not that we didn't know that already). Maybe he's tried to have a bigger squad this season and change this but they're clearly not up to the job. They were probably concealed by the rest of the team doing their job. Given Jan is never a time to be able to make proper change, a big summer coming up.
  9. Told us sheep to pipe down from memory?
  10. That was truly abysmal. Not one positive to take from that second half. What the hell do they do in training that makes them incapable of completing a 5 yard pass??? Woeful.
  11. Turned it on just in time for the equaliser. Half times subs were bizarre. Didn’t think I’d watch that prick Devlin play again.
  12. Brutal for him, just never ends! Every time he hits some decent form he gets crocked. Wish him a speedy recovery and hopefully a clear run after that. He and Hedges were going to be integral to any success this season.
  13. Another game we should be seeing off, but have a feeling it'll be struggle like the Hamilton game. They don't lose by much (in the league) so it'll be a tight one at the best of times. This should be the last game that our Covid Dons will miss, not sure whether any of the others are due back? I imagine the club will reveal a bit more in the preview later today. Hope DM has sterner words than he did prior to Hamilton, because whatever he said, it didn't work. Out Bed I might actually be up for this one Dealing with life 1-1, Consi
  14. Superb!
  15. Just leaving this here:
  16. Shite. Not good enough.
  17. Have to say, from what i've seen of him, i'm of the same opinion. But i'm hoping his best is yet to come...
  18. Fortunately my stream keeps crapping it (much like the team) so i'm unable to watch this shit storm

    Amazed he lasted this long, especially since he was using again. Great footballer, manager, not so much.
  20. Missed the goal, how'd it play out (apart from Hedges scoring obvs)?
  21. Hoping this'll end up on a stream somewhere. I'd say the boys need to continue their Dons education, but not sure a Hamilton game is the right one to entice them or keep their attention ?
  22. Hopefully it's a case of midweek redemption. Accies have had a torrid November, starting off with a pumping from the Huns (8-0) so we should be getting a result here. Even given our injury / covid crisis, we should have enough to see them off. By the sounds of it, we were shite as a team (bar Hedges) on Sunday, so hopefully DM knocks a few skulls together ahead of this one. We cannot be dropping points to the bottom team and we haven't lost to them since Feb 2019. Out Bed Looking after the bairns Work 2-1 Dons, Cosgrove and Consi
  23. Hadn't realised it was as many as that. Any team outside the arse cheeks would struggle with that.
  24. Sakes, what a result to wake up too. I didn't think we'd win, but I didn't anticipate a pumping (flukey or not). Big few weeks to try and get their shit together. I know we had a few out, but was it down to players being shite or shite tactics? Obviously I'll ignore that they could actually have been any good.
  25. Never trust a man who's leaking. I mean, he has many other reasons not to be trusted, but that was disgusting.
