Would seem a very short sighted thing to do. Surely the only way we can progress as a club is developing our own young players. It definitely seems like McInnes has no faith in young players as he has given very little if any game time to our U20s despite them winning the league last year.

Gutting that Paddies were going to qualify. Wonder if Strachen is still convinced playing for a draw in Dublin was the right thing to do.

Watched that. Very good programme. Honduras looked one seriously fucked up place. The girl who just saw killing a woman and her child as part of her job was chilling.

I would go for following Snelders McKimmie McLeish Miller Robertson Mason Strachen Bett Wier Gilhaus Black Subs: Leighton Shinnie Irvine Grant Jess Shearer Nicholas C Manager: Alex Ferguson

Not a great game but a wins a win. Thought Hayes played well for first time this season and took his goal well. Flood also had his best game but as tlg said that possibly had a great deal to do with the standard of opposition. McLean was shit again along with Jack who could have cost us the game with his mistakes in the first half if they were made against a better team. Win should restore players confidence and hopefully allow us to push on again. International break coming at wrong time for us as would have been good to keep momentum going. As for Arabs they are fucked. Mixu must have been off his head taking on that shower of shite as they are first division bound.

QPR sack their manager with Warnock returning on a temp basis until a new manager appointed.

As others have said a must win game this weekend. A loss would see us creeping towards the crisis headlines and serious questions would have to be asked of the manager. In Archies Y Archies 1-0 Dons Rooney.

Odd that some think that Soliders/airmen injured in conflicts since do not deserve support however as that includes soldiers who fought in Korea (some on national service so basically conscripts) and Falklands. Are they less deserving of financial support if injured?

From his showing at Hibs (I know only one game) then he is not even as good as useless. Looked totally out of his depth.

Draw for third round was made during the week. William Hill Scottish Cup 3rd Round Draw Stranraer v Buckie Thistle Queen's Park v Forfar Athletic Formatine United v Fort William/Cove Rangers Dumbarton v Alloa Athletic East Fife/Stirling Albion v Cumbernauld Colts Albion Rovers v Greenock Morton Falkirk v Turriff United/Fraserburgh Nairn County/Wick Academy v Linlithgow Rose Peterhead v Livingston Huntly v Lothian Thistle /Montrose Elgin City v Raith Rovers Airdrieonians v Brechin City Ayr United v Dunfermline Athletic Inverurie Loco Works v Annan Athletic Stenhousemuir v East Kilbride/Forres Mechanics Cowdenbeath v Arbroath Ties to be played weekend of Saturday 28th November Dons come in in the next round.

Normal service has been resumed. Taylor's challenge is beyond explanation. Hearts win today and we are down to third. I wonder if the clowns who were not concerned about going out the league cup still feel that way.

One of my pet hates. Glad to see someone taking a stand on them.

I think you are sadly right. Something has changed in the dressing room. Players no longer look like they are all pulling in the same direction and level of effort has dropped off alarmingly. I would not be surprised if McInnes was gone in next few weeks.

Sherwood punted by Villa.

Must win game for the Dons. Defeat and a doing off the Plastics next week could easily trigger a complete collapse and see us starting to slide down the league. Also the thought of that clown McGhee's grining puss if they were to win makes me feel ill. Getting one over on that fuckwit should be enough motivation on its own for the team. I would like to see Quinn in for Taylor at the back on Saturday and Shinnie going to left back. Got to assume Jack will return as well. I would like McLean to be played further forward but fact that Flood is shite and Robson is past it will probably mean he will sit deep besdie Jack. Oot Flat Edinburgh City v Buckie in SC Flat 1-0 , Rooney

Would be interesting to see him and Quinn playing together as they were decent when they both played together at Motherwell.

As Manc says this is one we really need to win against a team who we have struggled against of late with only one win in the last 5 games against them. Hopefully everyone is fully fit. Oot Flat Edinburgh City v Dalbeattie Star Flat 1-0 Dons Rooney

2nd round drawn today which included 3rd division sides. Inverurie Loco Works v Edinburgh University Nairn County v Whitehill Welfare / Wick Academy Cumbernauld Colts v Auchinleck Talbot / BSC Glasgow University of Stirling v Queen's Park Turriff Utd v Fraserburgh Edinburgh City v Buckie Thistle Formartine Utd v Clyde Elgin City v Spartans East Kilbride v Forres Mechanics Brora Rangers v Arbroath Annan Athletic v Berwick Rangers East Fife v Stirling Albion Huntly v East Stirlingshire Lothian Thistle HV v Montrose Clachnacuddin v Linlithgow Rose Fort WIlliam v Cove Rangers Ties to be played 24th October.

Man U game could have swung either way. Wolfsburg had plenty of chances.

Mixu's name being mentioned by a few Arabs I know.

Dermot Desmond on TV greeting about lack of Sevco in the top league. Utter cunt of a man.

Try going through LAX in kilt. You would have thought I was Bin Laden himself.

Rumour has it United have punted the wage thief. Edit: Confirmed by BBC that he is no longer United manager although still an employee of the club.

Full Times: Wick 2-2 Whitehill Threave 1-3 Stirling Uni Nairn 5-1 Selkirk Lossiemouth 1-4 Forres Spartans 5-1 Coldstream Preston 2-3 Fort William Lothian HTV 3-0 Kelty Hearts Strathspey 1-2 Edinburgh Uni Gala FR 0-2 Linlithgow Rose Fraserburgh 3-2 Dalbeattie Star Keith 1-5 Inverurie Hawick Ra 0-3 Huntly BSC Glasgow 2-2 Auchinleck Banks O Dee 2-3 Cove Rangers Formartine 3-1 Gretna 2008 Deveronvale 0-5 Clach Buckie 7-0 Rothes Only real shock is BSC holding Talbot to a draw. Draw for next round is Monday.

Shite. 2-1 defeat made worse by fact that Tims only drew. Great chance to extend the lead blown. Instead it's been cut. Only positive is that it's only been cut by 1.
