Well that was shite again. Hearts came up to shitfest and we seemed to think that playing what looked like 6 in the middle and one up top was the way to combat it. As Tom said above our final ball and especially set pieces were woeful. Only positive is we never looked like losing.

That had to be a blow to Dundee. Best 2 players sold in a week.

Never mind £89m for pogba or £50m for Stones the above is all the evidence you need that transfer market in England is completely insane.

Totally agree. Nothing against Considine but it is madness to sign the best left back in the country then not play him there. Really hope we are still looking for another central mid.

Apart from the first game at Tynecastle Hearts pretty much had our number last season and knew how to prevent us from playing our usual game hopefully new signings will mean we will not as out muscled as we were last season. Hearts fans in the work have been less than impressed with their team so far this season however I can see it being close game with few chances. In Archies Y Mother in Laws 60th party 1-1 McGinn

2-1 now. Lewis parried shot from Ayr player into middle of the goal for them to finish.

Need to make up for last seasons abysmal showings in the cups. Would go with our strongest team tonight so we can get the game done quickly. Can always rest players once we are well ahead. In (as long as work does not interfere) Train then hopefully a beer in town Standing behind the goal Jogging for last train 2-0 McGinn and Stockley

Pogba having medical at Manchester United today with Manchester United paying £89m for a player they let go for nothing a few years back.

Well that was shite. Defensively sound but very little going forward. Stockley won very little in the air and looked pedistrian against there back line. Burns ran about a lot but no end product. Only times we caused them any real problems was when Shinnie got wide. Only positive was we looked solid at the back without Taylor.

Game day and no thread Manc. What's that all about. Tough start for the Dons at a venue we have struggled at recently. With Hayes being out would assume Burns would start again as his replacement. Taylor is suspended for this so we will need reshuffle the defence. Given the manager seems very reluctant to play Considine and Reynolds together in the middle would expect OConnor to start at centre half today. In Robbie Burns Bar as its open early North Stand Quick beer in town then train 2-1 Dons Rooney and McGinn

Tribute Act getting a credible draw 1-1 draw with Accies in their first top flight game.

Cannot believe someone with as little ability as Josh is getting a game in the top flight let alone having teams wanting to pay cash for him.

216 turned up to watch Celtic youths play Annan and was played at Morton. Not a chance there will be a crowd of 5,000 for a game involving any of the colts sides.

This. Sending off was always coming as soon as Stockley got booked.

Think we will score tonight but also cannot see us keeping a clean sheet either especially if Taylor is playing. No doubt Hayes being out is a set back but hopefully Storie or Burns will be able to fill that gap. Can see Maribor playing in a very similar style to last Thursday and we will need to work hard to break them down. Oot Work Hopefully out of Work in time to watch on Premier Sport Flat 1-1 and out on pens.

Bit of a blow. Can Burns or Storie play wide.

Speaking to fans of the lower league clubs they feel competition has been completely devalued by the inclusion of youth teams. Most see the inclusion of Northern Irish and Welsh teams in the same light as well if not down right madness given the extra costs of traveling potentially involved.

Great result for them. Beat a decent side in Bate as well.

For any Dons fans based in Livingston area there are a group of Dons fans going to watch the game at Davincis if you want to watch the game with fellow Dons fans.

5-2 Dons final score.

Dons under 20s currently playing in this joke of a competition beating Formartine 5-0.
