More than one person said it was like being back in the ebbe era today. Shocking performance against a side that really didn't need to try that hard. Gifted them 3 goals yet our support still sung their hearts outs and celebrated the fact that despite being 3-0 down the tims didn't sing, exactly like the ebbe days Line up today was as expected. Seve at the back after the horror of show at tyncastle, and tbh can't argue with it. Mair on the left of the three despite his shocking display last time out and zander on the right. Byrne on the left, hart on the right. Midfield.....was apparently clark, nicholson and smith with aluko somewhere between them and miller Quite what JDV has to do to displace clark god only knows. Yet again clark displayed his complete lack of ability and interest. He was subbed at half time but unfortunately he only got subbed because he was injured.....which means JC will throw him back in as soon he is fit. First goal...horrific clearing header from seve Second goal....clark gives the ball away, mair plays after you and decent finish past langfield third....seemingly in langfields control only for him to fumble it JDV and Maguire looked good when they came on but really the game was over by 30mins without much effort from sellick. We desperately need someone to play at the back with zander as with mair we are essentially playing with 10men. Equally with clark on the field too we are left with 9men. Even the blinkered JC must see he is not worth a place...surely With a defence like this we won't be top6. And JC needs to either identify a CB or settle on a partnership rather than fuck about. Midfield has long been absent and setting out with barry, jamie and chris is never going to achieve anything. Jimmy may have aspirations to be the manager of some medium sized English Championship side but he needs to waken up and realise that afc is about as big as he is going to get, and he'll be lucky if he lasts much longer dishing up horror shows like today. We are better than we showed today but the same old suspects continue to get picked. At the end of the day (sic) we won't have budgeted for anything today and it is the next few league games between now and the new year that may decide whether we get top 6 and have a chance of europe again. I don't really rate any of our close challengers and if we play to our potential we will be there or there abouts, however we need to get a grip and answer the questions we've had since russle left in june: What is our defence Who is going to boss the midfield and Do we have a strike partnership? Quite why JC didn't answer any of these questions in pre-season he'll have to answer, hopefully not on his way from pittodrie in the boot of a car

who the fuck is going to give him a managers job? Dunfermline are the only obvious ones. He has failed miserably at afc. Another "name" that has failed to live up to their reputation?

you'll struggle to shift any spares. You could get as many tickets as you want for today

struggling to find much team news redweb says Young is out but no mention on the bbc website: Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink and Maciej Zurawski have overcome recent knocks to take their place in the Celtic squad. Shunsuke Nakamura is still out, along with long-term victims Mark Wilson and Jean-Joel Perrier-Doumbe but Steven Pressley is available for selection. Aberdeen defender Jackie McNamara is struggling with flu and may miss out against his former club. Darren Mackie remains sidelined with an ankle injury but Jamie Smith has recovered from his hamstring problem.

given that we will never get a community stadium (esp now glasgow has the Commonwealth Games) this whole discussion is largely academic

1. Jagerdeen 2. Busy Bilbo Baggins 3. Glasgow Sheep - glasvegas

aberdeen fans are shit^^^^^^^^^^ unfortunately you are right JDV was the best player on the pitch vs united and he ends up on the bench at tyncastle smith, clark and seve will all be in the midfield come saturday fuck I need to change my prediction league prediction

what no globes at parkhead shock horror pisses me off that we will have, possibly, an even smaller support at parkhead than we did at firhill, while 1000s greet about madrid tickets

enough of this madrid shit (and no, not just because I'm not going) Huge game for us this sat. I don't expect a victory, or even a point, but need to show a bit more solidity in defence, esp with that game coming up. tbh honest I think we looked the better side against hearts but folded like a ebbe side. Hopefully JC has been working with the back 5 over the break so they are ready for the game. Mackie is a big miss miller will be upfront by himself anyway. 451 with JDV and Aluko on the wings will do me

yeah that didn't backfire too much

HE'S GOT A PINEAPPLE ON HIS HEAD OH YEAH

think donstalk.co.uk has been pulled by the server

given all the hype about madrid tickets I presume we'll have folk queuing all across the Kessock Bridge to get in.......what? no?

lets hope the globe and hubbards are bouncing again I we can all stagger home and get some kebabs to celebrate

Anyone else checked out the latest video on RedTV? Some brilliant foootage of some of the players that have come through our Youth system over the years: http://www.afc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/sub/TVNewsDetail/0,,10284~1143776,00.html

we are the equvalent of Clyde or Queen of the South to them. I'd be pissed off if we didn't think we could beat them comfortably

Of course they think they will beat us. They'd be crazy if they didn't. Equally what game are we going to win? We look like a bunch of arrogant wankers if we came out saying we were going to win these games.

what goes through the minds of McDermid and that Morgan twat that passes as our security cheif? Would be nice if just once they stuck up for the fans instead of vilifying us at every opportunity. Given that sellick got a suspended £25,000 fine for that eedgit coming onto the pitch vs Milan what the hell does he expect us to get for 1 flare, in a stand? As for travelling to Madrid. They have to say these things I suppose, but I hope they push to get as many tickets as possible as I can't imagine Madrid selling out their end for this, even if it is the mighty dandies!

My god I hope folk have been saving their pennies. Check oot our calendar for the next few weeks. It's either going to be one of the best 2 months of football in years (decades) or likely to send most of the north east of scotland into a pathological depression 13/10 Scotland vs Ukraine 17/10 Georgia vs Scotland 20/10 Aberdeen vs Inverness CT 25/10 Panathinaikos vs Aberdeen 28/10 Aberdeen vs Falkirk 31/10 CIS Cup QF - Aberdeen vs ICT 3/11 Aberdeen vs Dundee Utd 8/11 Aberdeen vs Lokomotiv Moscow 11/11 Hearts vs Aberdeen 17/11 Scotland vs Italy 24/11 Celtic vs Aberdeen 29/11 Athletico Madrid vs Aberdeen

don't think the home/away issue or the dates of the games are set in stone. We won't have a clue of our timetable till the draw

I would put all the money to securing our finanical future. We are in no position to splash the cash btw I can't access all the extra smilies...why?

yeah I did Jim now has it for the away leg

there were only a handful of them too they should have been made to get to fuck so we could get our flag out

thanks to all the euro games this week we have also been spared articles about how Mark Hately can't sleep at night for nightmares about flying notebooks, while Ian Durrant recounts how he breaks down every time us "Morons" sing about "that tackle"

So how will JC set it out? Of course any sensible manager would go with the same side that did so well last night (barring any injuries) The defence has to be given a run of games together now and would be worth seeing how a Miller/Smith partnership develops. Main worry is that we'll be even more knackered at 70mins on Sunday than we were last night. Need to get a wee break in front or goal as we seem to be creating a decent number of chances and I'd hope we'd create some decent chances against the huns. Lets hope we give them a game.
