Airdrie up here as well. New stadium sank them.

Think Mixu was a better player than Rooney although that might be the drink effecting my memory plus fact he played in a team that included Shearer, Jess and Booth which was a joy to watch at the time.

Leaving out home nations players I would go for: Snelders Hector Deloumeaux Arnasson Tzvetanov Hayes Heikkinen Kiriakov Aluko Gilhaus Paatelainen

Got the impression when Cove lost to Edinburgh City a few years ago that they were desperate to go up. With new ground in place would think that will be the case this time as well.

665 at the game last night even though they were 4-0 down from first leg suggests there is enough interest to support a 4th team. Cove should be favourites for play off against Cowdenbeath who have had some fall down the leagues. Only 4 season ago they were in the 1st division playing Hearts Hibs and the Tribute Act.

Watt would be a big gamble and given our squad size not sure it’s one we can afford to take. Already have Cosgrove as a project player so surely if we are replacing Rooney (fair chance he will ask to leave as much as us releasing him) we should be looking for a proven goal scorer to replace him.

Sorry DD but McLean being out puts us at a massive disadvantage. Hibs are big step up in class to the previous 2 opponents and we would have a much better chance of winning if McLean was available. Agree with Kenny that we will need to move Shinnie back into midfield if we are to compete with Hibs in there. Means Considine coming back in and probably Cosgrove dropping out. In Pub in town Y Pub in town 1-1 McGinn

Cosgrove starts so assuming we are going to try to match them physically. With Andrew Dallas as ref think it’s a safe bet to say we will be down to 10 before then.

He played a holding role in last game I saw U20s play as well. Thought he was okay but to many side ways passes. Mind you Barry Ferguson got a 45 caps for Scotland doing just that.

Beaten by the bigger stronger more street wise team tonight. Hibs out muscled the Dons all over the field. They knew where and when to commit fouls. Played some very good football to. Dons has some good individual performances but just could not match Hibs team effort. Didn’t get much help from ref who probably should have sent off Porteous in the first half for what looked a two footed lunge in the box. Very inconsistent all game. Impressed by Frank Ross and Bruce Anderson for Dons. Not sure if any of the rest look like they are anywhere near ready for the first team. By fuck I am getting fed up of seeing us lose at Hampden.

Do not think Stewart has done enough to get a permanent deal here. Especially if we had to pay a fee. He is a shadow of the player who was at Dundee.

Going to head over as well. Only seen the U20s once this season when they beat Hearts 2-0 in a league game. Should be a good game.

Surely Roma cannot come back from 3 down again.

Final against Hibs is this Thursday at Hampden. https://www.afc.co.uk/2018/04/24/sfa-youth-cup-final-match-info/

Really hope not. Utter waster with a severe attitude problem if the rumours from Hearts are to be believed.

Have to agree. His lack of goals has been the biggest disappointment about his time at Aberdeen for me. Now looking like the player I thought we had signed. Just a shame he is leaving. Will be very difficult to replace.

Not managed a goal against this mob yet this season. Fully expect that negative cunt Potter to play for a draw again and try to nick something on the break. Got to assume that we will not make the defensive mistakes we made at Tynecastle again. We looked more threatening when GMS came on at Tynecastle so would think he will start if fit. Friday night game so I will be giving it a miss as no chance of getting away early on a Friday. I really hate Friday night football. Oot Work Flat Flat 0-0 again.

Tin hat on but after May again having another howler I would go with Rooney up front. He at least hit the target with his 2 chances in last 2 games. May put the corner flag in more danger. Players we have should be able to get the ball to Rooney in the box. We do that he will score. Mays supposed mobility has delivered very little in last few games.

This years payment will not even cover their loan from Close Brothers.

Get money on him being knocked out by one of his players before the season starts.

Still expect us to beat Killie away and get a win and draw from the Edinburgh teams at home. Tribute Act and Tims will probably be kickings.

Fully expect us to win as Shinnie McLean and Logan are back. We need to win as it's probably easiest of our post split fixtures. Wife is on a hen weekend so not making this one. Oot Flat Local game Flat 2-0 Rooney and McGinn

Absolute disgrace today. No fight or passion shown by a single player in that fucking awful blue strip. Ball was brutal. Nakwali getting injured was a blessing in disguise. Cannot believe he is a Man City player. Miss by May just before half time was criminal. £300k for a player who cannot hit the target when clean through. I am off to sit in a darkened room.

Hibs win 4-2 on penalties to play Dons in final.

Other semi between Hibs and Celtic is on at Easter Road tonight. Currently 0-0 at half time. Edit: Into extra time still 0-0.
