mizer Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 JAMIE LANGFIELD admits Aberdeen's recent recovery will receive its toughest test at the scene of their worst ever defeat on Saturday. That's when the Dons return to Celtic Park for the first time since a shameful 9-0 thrashing at the same venue in November. Craig Brown has replaced Mark McGhee and Aberdeen have won four and drawn one since the new regime took charge. And Langfield has had his first three clean sheets of the season to help move the team from bottom of the SPL at Christmas to within five points of the top six. Langfield said: "I'm sure everyone will be talking about the last time we went to Celtic Park. "The 9-0 defeat is always going to be there as it is in the history books but we want to show we are better than what happened that day. "The way things were going a month ago you'd probably have said we had no chance against Celtic. "But our form has picked up and we go into the game with a bit more belief. "We play them three weeks in a row so the result on Saturday will show how far we have come under the new boss." Langfield marked his 200th top team appearance against St Mirren last week with his 67th clean sheet for the Dons. Despite that, his future is far from certain as his deal ends in the summer and Aberdeen have been linked with an interest in Kilmarnock's Cammy Bell. The keeper added: "What happens next is entirely up to the manager. "But I have a great affection for the club and if they want to talk, then I am happy to do so. "There have been plenty of ups and downs, I was dropped a few times, sometimes through my own doing. "When you've been struggling like we have in the past 18 months, you tend to forget highs like our great run in Europe."

capitalsharpie Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 I would love craigie broon to manage us in europe. Quote
Rebus30 Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 I hope that the team all go into Saturday's game with the same attitude as Langfield and truly believe that they can do this. We don't need a second embarrassing anihilation at celtic park COYR Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 67 shutouts from 200 games? That doesn't strike me as half bad at all. Quote
dave_min Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 67 shutouts from 200 games? That doesn't strike me as half bad at all. Aye but one of them was against East Fife, so we should just let him go. Quote

wi_09 Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 Aye but one of them was against East Fife, so we should just let him go. Was he not also in goals for the 5-0 game a few years back so that would be 2 shut-outs against East Fife!! Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 Cammy Bell made a right cunt of a goal against the Jambos, Clangers Mk II. Quote
dave_min Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 Was he not also in goals for the 5-0 game a few years back so that would be 2 shut-outs against East Fife!! He certainly was! The cunt is much worse than I first feared. Quote

Guest ally s Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 Cammy Bell made a right cunt of a goal against the Jambos, Clangers Mk II. One mistake and he's Clangers Mk II? Hmmmm. Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 One mistake and he's Clangers Mk II? Hmmmm. How many mistakes has he made? Just the one, ever. He must be awesome. Quote
Guest ally s Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 How many mistakes has he made? Just the one, ever. He must be awesome. I'm sure he's made mistakeS before but he's got a long way to go before he catches up with Langfield's tally of huge fuck ups. Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 I'm sure he's made mistakeS before but he's got a long way to go before he catches up with Langfield's tally of huge fuck ups. I bow to your extensive knowledge of his career thus far. Quote

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 I'd been watching Aberdeen, daft cunt that I am. Little did I know we had a goalkeeping scout in our midst. Eversomoreawesome. Quote

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 Promising young keeper who's under contract elsewhere. He may have a long way to go to catch up with mistakes that Langfield has made but he also has a lot of games in which to do it, he's barely got his trackie off at Killie whereas Langfield has more shutouts than he's had starts.
