  1. Carried over. More importantly (maybe) is that if the united game is cancelled then he will miss our Scottish Cup tie vs Hearts as it was a straight red card
  2. In/Out: In Pre-match: Train from the weeg then Whites match: Shed, where else would you go? Post-match: train back to he weeg...via Reekie?! Prediction: Hopefully now avril has fucked off we can win
  3. Strange how shops are never ordered to close due to icy roads and pavements.......
  4. Start date 2010/11 - 14th August http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_prem/8421112.stm http://www.scotprem.com/content/default.asp?page=s2&newsid=8498&back=home This seems to sum up for me what is wrong with Scottish Football. We generally agree that doing well in Europe and giving our sides the best opportunity to do so is a good thing. We also acknowledge that the late start this season had a seriously detrimental effect on our teams performance and that perhaps we should be starting the season a good bit earlier so that our qualifiers have the best possible chance to progress. Furthermore it is recognised that shit weather means shit crowds and that midweek games mean reduced crowds. So the later the start the less good weather and the more midweek games. So what do the SPL do? They look at the options: 31st July: apparently too early as we might have players involved in the World Cup (Really? That many? In the semi finals or beyond?) 7th August: Most clubs would benefit from an earlier start as this means less midweek games and so bigger crowds. Also not up against the EPL so a bit more TV exposure etc and more games at a time of year when we might expect decent weather. 14th August: A small number of big clubs (this number may be 2, they don't say) would gain even more money if they could play some big fancy EPL side at the beginning of August. But then other clubs may lose out due to more midweeks, Euro qualifying etc. So what do they do? They choose the later option fucking up our european hopefuls while furthering boosting the bigger clubs (OF?) bank balance. What a shower if incompetent cunts

    On Thur afternoon heading back from East Kilbride I passed 3 seperate accidents in little over a mile. All very minor and obviously just minimal impact but the roads weren't that bad, and as TF says if you don't drive like an idiot you'll be fine. Mind you if you have an idiot driving 3ft behind you like I did then it's just your luck whether the prick rear-ends you or not. Sounds like gritters are yet another thing aberdeen council can't afford....in fact do they pay for/fund anything other than their own wages and the payments on the debt these days?
  6. This season gets better and better.......... If we can stop getting players sent off and injured every 5 mins we might actually do a bit better. It will be like having 5 new signings etc etc etc
  7. Is that true? What a complete fucking mess if so. I was going to ask how they managed to build big motorways etc in the past but I suppose the the M77 and M74 link is an indication that we can still build a decent road when we want (although it did take 40 yrs to get round to finish the M74). In a similar vein to the AWPR the current fucking shambles between Moodiesburn and Castle Carry is so that a terrible bit of road can be up graded. We'll ignore the fact that there have been roadworks on it constantly for the past 10yrs and concentrate on the fact that allegedly due to cost cutting they have decided not to make it a 3-lane stretch of M-way and instead just up grade to a 2 lane M-way...or add a hard shoulder in basic english. Two years of misery on that road for fuck all
  8. did he not kick out at the lads heels rather than simply trip him up
  9. So only 5 years away then, I like your optimism
  10. Although I dare say we will be waiting another 10yrs for them to actually build the fucker:
  11. I wasn't at the game this week, and I know highlights frequently seem to show no resemblance to the actual game, but from the highlights it looks like on another day we could have destroyed them. They had two decent chances, both due to defensive ineptitude, and one of which was off side. We had loads of chances, seemed to be passing it around quite nicely and even looked liked we had Mackie playing reasonably well. Miller on the other hand is a tool, but was clearly frustration at yet another defeat. I was quite pessimistic before seeing the highlights, and although a loss is a loss am a bit more positive about things than I might otherwise have been
  12. I forgot Jess played for us in the 00s. I'll take out Aluko and put in Jess
  13. I think the decade can be easily summed up by the fact there is almost no variation between every ones answers thus far
  14. Best Aberdeen Player of the Decade: Anderson Best homegrown player: Anderson Best signing: Severin Best goalkeeper: Langfield Best defender: Anderson Best midfielder: Severin Best forward: Stavrum Best manager: Calderwood Pick an XI from the decade: LangfieldHart Anderson Diamond McNaughton Nicholson Severin Heikennan Aluko Stavrum Mackie Game of the Decade: Copenhagen, closely followed by cup win at Parkhead Biggest single disappointment of the decade: Repeated humiliation in the cups, and if I was to choose one single match then QotS Best opposition player of the decade: Larsson
  15. After 16 spl games over the last few seasons: 2000: 16pts 2001: 26pts - 4th (14pts off top, 15 from bottom) 2002: 17pts - 8th (25 pts off top, 8pts from bottom) 2003: 14pts - 11th (32 pts off top, 9pts from bottom) 2004: 31pts - 3rd (6pts off top, 19pts from bottom) 2005: 21pts - 6th (17pts off top, 13pts from bottom) 2006: 28pts - 2nd (12pts off top, 16pts from bottom) 2007: 24pts - 6th (9pts off top, 19pts from bottom) 2008: 21pts - 5th (22pts off top, 9pts from bottom) 2009: 18pts - 6th (19pts off top, 6pts from bottom)
  16. 1754: Now, about the idea that this match is meaningless... Scottish teams have performed abysmally in European competition this season and the country's co-efficient has taken a hammering. Celtic need to win to earn the two Uefa co-efficient points that might just keep Scotland ahead of Belgium. 1757: If Belgium's representatives continue to gather points in the Europa League and Champions League, they could move into 15th place in the rankings ahead of Scotland, meaning Scotland's league winners would have to play two or three qualifying rounds the season after next. Celtic v Arsenal again, anyone? 1846: Half-time Rapid Vienna 3-1 Celtic 1848: Sorry if I'm boring you with this co-efficient malarkey, but Anderlecht are winning handsomely at half-time at Ajax. This is not good news for the Scottish Premier League winners in a few years' time. 1849: My colleague Richard Gordon, speaking on Radio Scotland, has informed the listeners that Scottish teams have now conceded 49 goals in European football this season.
  17. you're rating is 666 Spooky How's wee Damien getting on?
  18. Regardless of the merits or otherwise of what the arabs have done can we not agree that: 1) Pissing of huns is a good thing and should be encouraged 2) Bain is an utter, utter cunt
  19. Before my time but surely Bobby Clark and Fred Martin should be higher
  20. Every year you think you are watching the worst refereeing performance you have ever seen but year on year they top it. Every club in the SPL will be fined for poor discipline at this rate.......maybe that's the plan. Useful site for SPL refs. Amazingly some haven't sent anybody off! http://www.splrefs.com/All-Refs/All-Referees-Cards.php?TeamID=&TeamName=All+Refs&sort=RedAvg EDIT: Bloody hell check Steve Conroy: 8 Games 45 Yellows and 4 Reds!
  21. Hearts themselves were relegated twice in the 80s. Now I know there are three clubs that have NEVER been relegated, and obviously two are the OF..now who is the other team?
  22. Centre back, centre mid and centre forward that's what should be on McGhees letter to santa
  23. I would almost consider sacrificing a top 6 place (the glamour of 5th place battle) to relegate these guys on the last day of the season.....almost
