Jute Posted December 22, 2010 Report Posted December 22, 2010 Possibly struggling to sell hospitality packages on the 1st and only just getting feedback that the date is a problem ? Arranging games on the 1st is not ideal but in past years they were traditionally very well attended as fans were keen to get out the house, same went for boxing day games. Possibly cultural shifts have now put an end to that and the SPL are still playing catch up. Sofalising for me that day too. For the record, I think we will give them a thumping that day. Just a sense I have. So whats your excuse for the rest of the season. Quote

glasgow sheep Posted December 23, 2010 Report Posted December 23, 2010 If my mind isn't too addled by age, or brandy, I'm sure we used to have league games on Christmas day? We have played many a game of Christmas day in the past, check out http://www.afcheritage.org/history/OnThisDay/index.cfm on Saturday if you have a spare second. Quote
Ajja Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 UTD are really going to be struggling for a decent back line in his one. Kenneth is suspended for tonights game against Hibs and there is talk of them playing Daly at CB they are so light on options . Even if Kenneth comes back in against us he will be very rusty with no games since mid-November. He is piss poor at the best of times so if he is the best they have we should be getting Magennis on to ruffle them up a bit. I see victory. Quote
Rebus30 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 I'm hoping this game will make buying my season ticket finally worth it! Come on dons, you gave us a slightly belated crimbo pressie, surely you can set off on the right foot for the new year too COYR Quote
capitalsharpie Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 This may become one of the most important games of the season now. Might be the difference in gathering points to keep shooting us up the league or gubbing about in the lower half. Quote
manc_don Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Indeed, hopefully todays result will encourage a few more along to the game as well Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 depending on the result tonight, if we beat the Jute cunts on Saturday we will go ahead of them Quote
approx.purified Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 I really hope we get a nice big crowd on the 1st to welcome Brown and Knox. However the most important thing is will the Pittodrie bar be open for a few pre-match pints so I don't have to sober up? Quote
Ajja Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 depending on the result tonight, if we beat the Jute cunts on Saturday we will go ahead of them I suspect a 15 goal turnaround will be beyond us though Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 I suspect a 15 goal turnaround will be beyond us though And it's that negative attitude that holds us back... Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 And it's that negative attitude that holds us back... we get the team we deserve right enough! Quote
Stewart Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 And it's that negative attitude that holds us back... Can't we appeal to the SPL to bring in Andy Gray's alphabetical order rule? Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Danny Swanson now out for this. Quote
Ajja Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 And it's that negative attitude that holds us back... I want to believe, show me how. Hibs to pull back tonights game is one goal. Then a 7-0 victory on NYD will just about do it. Bring it on. PMA. Quote
glasgow sheep Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Danny Swanson now out for this. Was a straight red. On the beeb match stats looked like a 2nd yellow which wouldn't be an automatic suspension next game Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 I thought a red card for whatever reason meant being out for the next league match? Quote
glasgow sheep Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 I thought a red card for whatever reason meant being out for the next league match? I thought it was only straight reds for violent conduct that saw you miss the next game, I stand corrected if not however. Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 I thought it was only straight reds for violent conduct that saw you miss the next game, I stand corrected if not however. Nope, only straight reds can be appealed, a red card means you are out for the next game. Unless you are a tim/hun, in which case a quick appeal will absolve you. Maguire was out after a second yellow against the filth. Quote

Really wish this game had been moved to the 2nd. Would love to head up but fuck all chance of that happening on the 1st. Quote
mizer Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 I think this will be a draw, we are getting better but still have fragilities. Quote
manc_don Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 Tickets are £17 according to the update they put out on Fezbook. Quote
Kowalski Posted December 30, 2010 Report Posted December 30, 2010 Tickets are £17 according to the update they put out on Fezbook. Aye for the family stand: http://www.afc.co.uk/articles/20101229/aberdeen-v-dundee-utd_2217950_2250757 Quote
