Logan has been poor by his own standards, but Ball took that to a whole new level today. Nothing Logan has ever done for the dons has been that bad. He definitely wouldn't have let thon chunt handle his way past him (fucking disgraceful decision by the ref too). Nonsense. We're in second place in the league. There's been zero opportunity to play anything but our best team. We can't just sacrifice the league position in the hope of getting to a cup final Agree with that statement though! Fucking horrendous tactics. Rooney and May does not fucking work McInnes. Again, silly. He's signed the players, it's nae like he can take them back. If he'd said they were shite on day one of the season we wouldn't be sitting equal second. If anything, he should be keeping his mouth shut for another 5 games, but I can understand why he isn't. He's directly response though. This signings have been shocking. Tansey, Maynard, May, GMS, Arnason all not of the standard, or consistency of standard that we needed. All of those should have been obvious to the manager. I've seen all of those players play many times (Maynard aside) and would have advised McInnes against signing any of the, due to obvious flaws in their game (a punt on May and GMS would have been fine if both were free and were brought in alongside better signings). If I can see it, and mentioned it at the time, then why the fuck can't our scouts? I'm usually a positive person regarding new signings but it should have been obvious. These were massive positions for us given the players that left and it wasn't acceptable to take in inconsistent pish instead of the players leaving. It's not looking good for the rest of the season.

Just leaving. Ridiculous time to be getting up for the fitba. Should be a good one though. 13 degrees predicted, so I won't be needing ma t-shirt. 2-3 the dons. Glorious comeback sealed with a 93rd minute winner fae Considine, after strikes from Christie and May turned around a 2 goal deficit with just 7 minutes left. I stayed until the end, while non-super-fans left in disgust. Maybe this should be in the betting thread?

Aye, it's going to be a good one. I'm excited about it. Make or break for the season.

Front page news in the EE eh? Great to have such non-agenda driven journalism at the heart of the city. Wanks on both sides, that's for sure.

It's not that strange, their manager is Craig Levein. They need someone to kick the ball at. What's more strange is that they're spending shite loads getting their entire pitch re-laid. I'd have thought they could have saved money by just getting 25 yards at either end done.

Aye, looked good against us if it's the guy I'm thinking of (maybe played in holding midfield, but I canna mine?). Anyway, good to see a Scottish youngster going a bit further afield for some experience. Especially when it means the hun getting nothing for him too.

There are very few communities in towns and cities today. They're designed that way. Most folk, me included, go to work, go home and watch TV - on repeat. You've probably mistaken your building that you live in for a community. It probably isn't. It's probably just a building filled with people only looking out for themselves, which is what our economic system teaches us to do (at the expense of others, too). So, yer right, it is a myth now.

It should have been at Tynecastle or Easter Road. It's a total sham. There'll be 20K max there. It's a big game, I'm looking forward to it.

Shinnie to left back would be fantastic. However, it has to 3rd or 4th in the queue given our first team leavers. We should be looking at two central midfielders first to replace McLean and Christie. Then a wide player to replace Stewart if we're not interested in playing Wright. Then another centre mid to replace Shinnie. Then another squad centre half in place of O'Connor.

Pretty difficult when our own club don't bat an eyelid. Anyway, reasonable fixtures. Only one 3pm home kick off left this season.

As I recall, the arab spring was started by thon manny setting himself on fire because he couldn't afford the price of wheat, because a giant global (US) monopoly corporation decided that they'd fuck aboot with the global wheat price for a short term lift in share price. The CIA may have stoked with some opportunism, but it was mainly about one manny and his inability to feed his family/sell his produce.

Still no release because of one fixture. Fucking shambles. Instead of phoning each database entry selling them some bullshit about how £18 per month will help us challenge the scum, how about we actually challenge them? How about making a statement calling out this shite? Shite like this is why yer £18 will do fuck all to reduce the gap.

The one with the funniest name always wins. Then is shot through the nose

Aye, it's season ticket time again, remember.

Aye, it's an interesting one. Fit's everybody's take on fit the team should be? I'm going: ---------------Lewis--------------------- Ball---Arnason---McKenna---Considine ---------O'Connor---Christie------------ McGinn--------Stewart------------GMS- ------------------May-------------------- I think Nwakali is pap (despite being okay in one game) and Christie is probably more likely to do as he's told in a role that requires discipline. That is (obviously) the biggest worry though, that's a very weak midfield. It is a very strong attacking midfield though too, so it might just work out nicely. Edit: great minds Jute.

Instead of writing arse-licking pish, why doesn't he get down to Hampden and find out where the fuck the fixture list is?

Admin? Admin? I want this moved to the rowie thread. We'll soon have this place operating out of one thread, probably a rant started by Rocket called "Everything is wrong, because:", which encapsulates the essence of every other discussion, football or otherwise.

A moral and administrative victory for me, once again. Bristow can finally rest in peace.

Anderson? Do you genuinely think he's ready for the step up? Is he the type of player that offers something different to (and better than) May? Have you seen him play?

This. If we're going to make it to the final, we need a striker that can run for 90 minutes. 2-0 the dandies again. May²

The thing with Sammon though, is that he's also better than Maynard, Cosgrove (it appears), Stockley (maybe), Storey, Zola, Parker, Goodwillie and various others that we've hired over the years. He was decent against us for Partick recently, which is something that no one has ever said about Maynard (decent, I mean). I think we could do better, however we currently are not, which is worrying.

Aye, but was he "gets his own thread" good?

There's a celebrity deaths thread for this sort of thing.

213.6 Miles (via M6)

I wouldn't have him I don't think, however it does surprise me that while we piss about with yer Cosgroves, Maynards, Stockleys and Zolas's, Motherwell get a semi-competent player in to fill their main striker role with little fuss. He's exactly the type of player who should be occupying our bench ahead of the fucking Maynard cunt. It would mean that we could actually take a striker on in the hope that he might do something different to what's already on the pitch. We haven't managed that since Josher, and he was limited.
