Scottish Cup 5th Round vs QotS -Replay Tue 14th Feb

[tlg1903]

Och at least we got a replay this time

[jmo]

Well I've never been to Palmerston before so at least I can tick off another stadium. Trying to stay positive this year.

[dave_min]

Fucking pish.

[Tyrant]

Good luck to any of the mugs that are going to Palmerston.

You wanting a lift still?

[Kowalski]

It was total pish.

I'd be inclined to drop Arnason and Fyvie and play players that want to stay at the club.  Both were poor yesterday, Arnason in particular was very lacklustre, and Fyvie couldn't cross a road let alone a ball from a corner.

 

Fuck both of them.

Were they that bad? From what i've seen of Arnason he's been quite laid back in his play. Are people starting to turn on him now (and FF) since they've rejected offers from the club?

[tom_widdows]

His Jean Claude Van Damne impression should have been a red card.

 

Open all mics seemed to be making out that Fyvie was running the show although I was being distracted by Ross County passing St Mirren off the park. Some of their one touch passing was quite scary

[manc_don]

That miss by Megginson was woeful! Shame Crespo didn't take the chance for himself.

 

How'd you hear the news about Arnason Jager?

[scotfree]

It's shite - and fuckin miles from Scotland

The same as you then.

[rocket_scientist]

Arnason isn't definitely leaving yet.

BUT... I don't think he's worth the jizz-fest mega-bukkake that folk have been having over him - but folk always use this sorta shit to have a go at the board, so proportion gets all fucked up.

 

If he stays, he'll be nae bad - nae worth a red-eye cumshot, but nae worth shouting abuse at either.

Not disagreeing with what you say re the hype but as for your comment above, it's as if you feel any criticism of the board is unwarranted?

[tlg1903]

Any word yet on when the replay will be?

[TENEMENTFUNSTER]

14th.

[manc_don]

I wonder if this will be televised ?

Highlights are up if you want to see them. McArdle for their goal was abysmal, where was he going??

[BobbyBiscuit]

wasn't my intention - I was just saying that's the reason folk hype up a mediocre player... i.e. the board is shite and won't pay for Arnason, therefore Arnason must be a fuckin legend - it's just a bit fucked up, ken.

 

It's the old "who can moan the loudest and be the most negative" syndrome that many spastic fans love to involve themselves with.

 

Don't agree he's mediocre. He's not the player many make him out to be, for sure, but if the club can keep him it'd be a superb piece of business I reckon. He's the sort of guy the team's missed since Heikkinen left us. i.e. someone who actually knows how to play the game.

Words of wisdom Greg that have been sadly missed during your self imposed absence.

Good to have you back on board

[Jute]

Total pish again from Dons. What is it with this club and cup ties against lower league opposition. Several players played well below par. Anyone any idea why Jack was taken off. He was by far our most effective player on the day.

[Tyrant]

Jesus I don't think it was that bad!? Aye we lacked cutting edge but it was all Aberdeen pressure and I'd say we were unlucky to a degree. I've seen us play a hell of a lot worse. At least we're still in the cup FFS sake.

 

Fyvie fucked up one corner. Frustrating? Yes. Did he have a shocker? No. Arnason made one mistake or maybe two where he gave the ball away. It's fuck all to do with him not wanting to be at the club. Just that he's a big game player. We all know that. He wasn't his best against Forfar either. But against Forfar he hadn't turned down the contract yet so no one made such a huge deal of it.

Totally agree ...... if a 3rd division team came and parked the bus against us we don't have the quality to break it down an that's all QotS did, with a total freakish breakaway into our half for their goal.

I'm not a huge Fyvie fan but thought he was one of our better players on the day with Jack being the best so why he was taken off is beyond me unless he was injured ... which I couldn't see either

This^^^

 

We utterly dominated that game but suffered from our lack of guile up front, which is hardly going to be a surprise to anybody (last 4 home games, 1-1. 0-0, 0-0. 1-0).

Then inevitably our defence make a mistake, and it was the only one they made, and QotS scored.  Jack was our best player and only real width or outlet.  Clark had been doing ok but is yet another who looks like he will be out for a few wks.

 

[Tyrant]

Aye I thought Clark was having a very decent game when he pulled up. That will genuinely be a loss for us.

[topcorner]

Who are we wanting in the draw then? Assuming we don't get spanked by QotS again.

 

With our record against lower division teams, I think i'd rather draw Hibs/Hearts than Ross County/Falkirk.

[Tyrant]

I'd take anyone but Celtic, Dundee Utd or Hearts. Even though they're shite (Hearts and Dundee United especially) we'd still bottle it.

[tom_widdows]

watched county at the weekend and I think they would rip us apart home or away
