In/oot: oot
Prematcher: Work
Match: Probably watching a game on Sky
postmatcher: Hopefully winding up my Dundee supporting brother about his pish team
Prediction: Dons 2-0 Dundee - Brother reckons Dundee will struggle. Not the same team as last season so hopeful we will progress.
Decent first half with Milsom and Osbourne being standouts. Vernons best game for a while and he took his goal well. 2nd half we reverted to type and were pretty poor. As soon as Caley moved Hayes into the middle and ran at us there we really struggled. Still overall better then last week and we got three points which is the important thing especially with us heading to Ibrox next week.
Thing is you could with this guy. He has only managed an average of 20 games a season since his major injury so was a pretty fair bet that he would be out injured a fair bit.
McCarthy has said before he is not interested in loaning players out to SPL so cannot see this happening. However would be a decent signing if it does.
Agreed at least one full back, winger and striker must come in if we are to have any hope of avoiding another long painful season fighting relegation. Sadly doubt we will get even that many.
Lack of width, fuck all creation and playing that fucking clown McArdle at right back killed us today.
Brown must get in decent full back, a winger and a decent striker in next couple of weeks if he is to avoid the fate the previous manager.
In/Out: In
Pre match: Roseburn
Match: Away end
Post Match: Globe if we win or home to sit and sulk in a darkened room if we lose
Prediction: Pub by half time
Could easily had two more sent off as well (although Malmo could have had one more away) with McCulloch and Naismith very lucky not to join the other two. They actually were the better side tonight as well and would have probably won if it wasnot for their players losing the plot.
Need a winger/creative mid as well. When he first came in Brown said he would not be repeating the mistakes of the previous incumbent but here we are starting the season with a squad that is totally unbalanced and missing at least one full back just like last season. Brown did what he was brought into do and stopped us going down. Is he capable of doing much more than making us hard to beat and keeping us up I am not so sure and less convinced everytime I hear him speak.
New manager is taking charge tomorrow so no way this has not been planned for a while now. Makes you think that the run of games is just an excuse and it is Jefferies standing up to Vlad the Mad over the kiddie fidder is the real reason for his departure.
Sky sports saying Jeffries been offered director of football roll and Brown and Locke not sacked but their positions are under review. cracking preperation for their euro tie on Thursday.
