  1. They seem to be trying to go down the American football route by building up the Monday night game as something special to finish off the week. That works in America as they generally only play on two nights a week and there isn't a live game of some sort every night like we get over here. There seems to have been more "big" teams playing on a Monday night this season than there used to be the last time Sky had the Monday night games.
  2. He doesn't get to do "the last word" on a Sunday when there is a game on Monday night so the annoying bastard has to get his moment of glory then instead
  3. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jocky_Scott Fair enough it's Wikipedia but I'd imagine the stats will be close enough. Other than his successful time as co-manager with Smith he's done absolutely nothing of any significance in his other jobs, all of which have been with fairly shite clubs. Fair enough if people want to go down the experienced route but I'd suggest any such manager would need to actually be a good manager as well as being old for that to work. I'm genuinely intrigued as to why people think he'd be a good option.
  4. I think the team talk on the pitch incident has overshadowed a lot of the good work Brown had done wth Hull up to that point. He isn't my first choice - that would be Stevie Clark with Duncan Shearer as assistant - but I'd much prefer him to Shughes, John McGlynn or Jocky Scott, who I reckon is only being suggested because people like his character in the real Leigh Griffiths blog thing
  5. I think Curbishley would be tremendous and maybe not as far out of reach as he once was. Really surprised that he doesn't have a club at the moment.
  6. As Jeff just said on Sky: "The real crisis club in Scotland is Aberdeen. Lost their last six games, with an aggregate of 18 goals to 2." Fucking shocking state of affars. The Sammon boy from Killie has scored 8 alone in his last 6 games.
  7. Getting worse instead of better. We weren't even this bad last season
  8. Has to go, really sad that it didn't work out but that result has tipped me over the edge.
  9. Totally. I can easily live with them being thick bastards with the FTP/Q stuff but it's pretty crap them openly supporting another pro team, never mind one they'll be expected to play against if they ever make the grade.
  10. Bebo. Scored one, set one up and generally got stuck in.
  11. Kenny Clark is a knobend. I read him having a go at Dingus as well. An ex referee who no doubt went squealing to the SFA when players and managers had a go at him has a cheek to peform such a u-turn as soon as the media's shilling is waved in front of him. He backs the refs every week no matter how blatantly wrong their decisions may have been, therefore his opinion is worth zip. Having said that, get it up the grumpy bastard Jim Jefferies anyway.
  12. No you stupid hun bastard of a "newspaper", any potential deal would be dependent on any offer from Rangers reflecting Aberdeen's valuation of the player
  13. Poor boy. Sure he'll come back as strong as ever.
  14. If that's the best reason we've got for keeping him then we should just let him go! Anyway, Hartley will be taking the pens this season I'd imagine.
  15. I'd imagine that if he is trying to sign Hendrie and Hartley then McGhee will have room to sign someone else if we don't get Hartley. Probably Ahmed or whoever. That gives us Hendrie, Fyvie, Ahmed/Hartley, Young (shudder), and didn't Williams start one of the friendlies as a defensive mid?
  16. Nice one mate, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Just be prepared for playing in a breeze! Heading out there for 18 holes tonight
  17. I can't honestly believe anyone still thinks we have some kind of right to be taking a guaranteed three points from anyone in the SPL. Even in seasons when we were doing a hell of a lot better than last year it would still have been mental to expect maximum points from any three-game sequence. 9 points would be excellent, 7 still pretty good and 6 plenty acceptable. We should be looking to win home games like those but a point from any away game would be decent.
  18. Different positions my man, one's a right back, the other plays on the left.
  19. It was the best of dates then it was the worst of dates
  20. Fuckin teckle likes!
  21. Completely agree. And it often feels like the bigger the occasion, the worse the game. One of the most entertaining games I've watched recently was Palace v West Brom on Monday night. Plenty meaty tackles, controversy, loads of chances and some brilliant saves. Not saying that the championship is wonderful or anything like that but quite often you get better games at a lower level than you do in the champions league.
  22. That's got to hint at Langfield being off in the summer
  23. Almost as many as they do goalkeepers by the sound of it.
  24. Well said those people. McGhee isn't going anywhere til at least the close season, if he goes at all, so hopefully everyone can get behind the team for the next few games.
  25. Langfield, Mulgrew, Foster, Diamond, Considine, Maguire, Kerr, Aluko, Pawlett, Marshall, Paton, Megginson, Fyvie, Grimmer. I'll probably be in the minority by choosing to keep 14 but I reckon that group with a decent boss and a sprinkling of experienced new signings, adding in the rest of the kids coming through and we'll be grand.
