Massive game tomorrow, looking forward to it. Win this and we've got one hand on the cup. Think we'll see big Duk ragdolling the Stalbion fucks all over the shop, with Ramirez poking them over the line. 8-1. 8 different scorers.

Nice one. Looks a good player. Hope we get to see a bit more of him. Straight in for Scales versus the Tims will do nicely.

Think duk might be a wideish kind of guy. Perhaps a Watkins replacement/upgrade.

Surely var would pickup all those handballs? The two goals that were given were miles over the bar too.

Solid performance, with little to get excited or concerned about. New signings seemed solid with little to get excited or concerned about. Liked Duncan when he came on. Polvara looked not bad. Miovski better be a good goalscorer if Ramirez leaves. Wasn't overly impressed with Besuijen. Still think he lacks that little bit of pace to get away from a player. Kennedy did well for the pen but his crossing wasn't great otherwise. Difficult to read much into the game otherwise.

Cemented his legend status with a great header

Great pen from Aberdeen legend, Ramirez.

Hayes at left back, or Hancock? Not sure what to make of Lewis being on the bench. This Roos lad better be good.

What I was trying to say was that on the day of the match, there was only one available match thread. Shocking. I expected at least four given the importance of the game. Is it on the telly?

Nae match thread on the day of our first ever experience of the SPFL league cup group stages? Disgusting.

I'm assuming Pele will lead the mourning?

Really good move for him if it goes through. We'll struggle to replace him, but definitely the right time for him to move. I don't think he really benefited in his last season for us. He's a little bit too good for her run of the mill SPFL game, which resulted in him playing for himself rather than the team. He needed that step up and new challenge, but with his poor stats (other than goals of course), he'll still be regarded as just potential. Italy could be the perfect way to fulfill that. He's not good enough for the premiership and needs the technical development that he probably wouldn't get in the championship. I think Italy will bring the best out of him.

At least we know who's starting in defence then. Bates will be a very expensive cover.

He came off injured against Buckie. Hopefully just resting him for the massive game at the weekend.

5-1, Kennedy and Hayes with the last two, pen for them. And a sixth, Harvey

Agreed on the number ten, pretty much a constant for us. I think Barron will shine in the McLean type role this season. Wouldn't be a massive issue if we didn't get a winger, I think we can survive on Besuijen, McLennan, Kennedy, Duncan, Hayes and Watkins until January if there isn't a good option now. I'd go for a number ten and a striker if we're only allowed two. Obviously zero left sided defender for the opening game an issue, but reckon we'll just have to hope we get lucky in that one.

Name one.

Part timer

The clear out has been reasonably successful for a single window. There were significant wages in that squad doing nothing. I think we could have gone one further with either McLennan or Kennedy going too, and obviously Ferguson needs to go for the betterment of squad harmony. Ramirez depends on Ramirez. Again, pretty good for a single window though. I think we're a couple short otherwise, but we're not in a terrible position (assuming the visas get sorted soon). I like the idea of a smaller squad, supplementing with youth. The intriguing part will be how many of our signings turn out to be good enough. It'll be the difference between having a good season and a poor one. The concern there is that we've only gone for unknown quantities. It's a very high risk strategy. Hopefully it pays off. Certainly makes for an interesting season.

FTFY

Aye, Levitt for me. Although Ronan and McGrath both fairly good options. All would improve our team.

Goram. Good goalie like.

Dons legend Adam Montgomery with theirs. Should never have let him go. Edit: my sources telling me it wasn't actually. Bair?

What the fuck are we going to do with McRorie if this lad can play everywhere?

I like Robert Kennedy, he's a good lad. Been on the right side of many things over the years, including the topic of election fixing (predominantly by the republicans) since 2000. The topic of this video was just a little too broad though and Carlson (who I've never really seen much of) was an absolutely pathetic host. He missed a hundred key opportunities to ask obvious questions, but didn't. I'm assuming that's because Kennedy was saying something that Carlson wanted to hear. For such a supposed formidable interviewer that's not only pathetic, but unprofessional. He's obviously not somebody that anyone should or could trust. A few well placed questions could have either shown Kennedy up, or allowed him to delve deeper and answer some glaring points (as Tom asks above). I have little doubt Kennedy would have answers, he's not unfamiliar with good investigative journalism. I have seen the statistics on increased illnesses and allergies, it seems strange that he glibly wrote off the more obvious candidates (pesticides) and headed straight for vaccines (and even stranger that a professional interviewer wouldn't pick up on that fucking humongous leap), or the other many corollary events. There are also very obvious reasons why vaccines would be exempt from litigation, in exactly the same as nuclear power plants would be, and why they'd be difficult to insure for the same reason as nuclear power plants would be - that's not a revelation. Again, the fact that the lazy interviewer doesn't bother to even just play devil's advocate is disturbing. Kennedy covers some very important points, but it's difficult to take them seriously when he's made some sweeping statements that went unchallenged. Carlson makes Kennedy less believable because it suits Carlson to air this particular viewpoint for his own ratings. Kennedy could be 90% on the money, but you wouldn't know from this interview.
