Moving the ball far to slowly. Need to moving it much quicker as it’s only way we are getting ball in behind a Killie team that are setting out for 0-0.

Fucking Christmas Shopping.

When do you play it? Using the leagues suggested for the league Ireland, Norway and Sweden have summer seasons while Scotland and Denmark have winter seasons. Plus you have you European games to fit it round. You would probably be looking at teams who are in Europe being excluded so teams from 4th down qualifying. Cannot see that drawing in sponsorship. I am old enough to remember Texaco cup and Anglo Italian cup in England and both collapsed due to lack of fan interest. Cannot see this being any different.

Sunday TV game this week with 12pm kick off. We have an amazing record against Killie not lost there if a fair few years. Thing is runs like that do end (although Real Sociedad have now gone 30 years without winning in Barcelona) and have a horrible feeling it might be this weekend. Fact Killie are on a rotten run just now just increases my bad feeling on the game. Ferguson is back from suspension and don’t think McCrorie’s kicks in until week after so we should be closer to playing strongest midfield this week. Would assume Main will continue as lone striker following his goals last week. oot panic Christmas Shopping TV Flat 1-1 Main

Virtanen looked good in game against Hearts earlier in the season but is injured currently. Ruth also played well on the TV game but seems to be being used wide rather than as a striker and also as a sub.

Deal extended until 2022. https://www.facebook.com/263523567481/posts/10158774154127482/?d=n

What is the story with their strips?

1st round draw

The really annoying thing is the folk behind the deal that collapsed the last time are back involved in our game with Premier Sports being Setanta.

Looking like French football is in the shite following collapse of their TV deal. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/dec/15/ligue-1-clubs-stare-financial-abyss-tv-deal-collapses-mediapro?utm_term=Autofeed&CMP=twt_gu&utm_medium&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1608030752 Time for a cheeky bid for Mbappe. Sure he can play left back.

Fernando Pasquinelli was another we had from South America who never really worked out.

Apparently the Atlantic league resonates with the fans.

Also seeing suggestions that the accounts confirm a loan of GBP 1m made the day he was signed.

https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/sport/football/aberdeen-fc/donsnews/aberdeen-boss-derek-mcinnes-hints-at-ronald-hernandez-departure-during-clubs-agm/ Apparently said during AGM there was interest from elsewhere when we signed him and that interest is still there.

Had heart issues previously.

To be fair most of the population of the country come from one area so it stands to reason that the majority of the referees do. Gerrard is at it though as he knows that was a red card.

First of the rumours for upcoming transfer window. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-transfer-news/ross-stewart-targeted-aberdeen-derek-23162242 Stewart meets all our requirements in a striker - big, strong and does not score many goals. Campbell has impressed in games I have seen him in but would be surprised if he does not have offers from clubs in England.

Another VAR failure. Clear and obvious error and not overturned.

How this wasn’t a red card defies explanation.

Don’t see playing league games against Bohemians or Lyngby as progression myself.

Comfortable victory for Dons today. Bit disappointed we never scored more but only a minor complaint. Good to get the win.

Hernandez signing looks stranger and stranger with every passing week. Perfect opportunity to give him game time today. Got to think he will be out in January.

Great finish from Curtis.

Loads of the ball but creating very little. Don’t think their keeper has a save to make since the goal. Very similar to recent away game at Hamilton. Hope it doesn’t go the same way.
