Dons v Morton League Cup Record Aberdeen have played (Greenock) Morton in League Cups encompassing 13 games and 60 odd years. Our last game will live long in the memory of even those, who like me, watched the game on teletext. Aberdeen raced to a 2-0 lead only to find themselves 2-3 down with seconds remaining. Cue a dodgy pen and hatrick for Dodds and extra time where Deano hit four to seal a 7-3 win. We have to go back to 1974 to find a Morton victory when they won 3-1 in a sectional match. AFC failed to get out their Section that season with just 2 wins and a draw from 6 matches.

BigAl Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 Not been to Cappielow since the 80's...doubt it has changed much to be honest. Probably not been there sober before, but driving tomorrow. Any parking tips, other than hoping my car is still all there when I get back to it ? Quote

Probably not been there sober before, but driving tomorrow. Any parking tips, other than hoping my car is still all there when I get back to it ? I asked the very same on P&B: There is a car park at Cappielow when you see the ground and the police turn left, the entrance is immediately on your left. It's three quid to park. On the way out, dont panic as you will be directed onto the main road in the opposite direction to Glasgow. Just continue for a minute- there's a big roundabout at McDonalds which you can't miss- go round roundabout and back up to Glasgow! or If you're lucky you'll get parked by the dock just over the main road from the ground.

CtS Posted August 21, 2012 Report Posted August 21, 2012 Always try to park Safely, Smoothly and Under control. Make proper use of the accelerator, clutch, brakes and steering, without crossing the white bay marking. Quote
glasgow sheep Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Posted August 22, 2012 1-0 us, Anderson 47th min Anderson likely to be rested as has a cut above his nose from Sat and Hayes has a slight knock. Hope CB doesn't change things more than necessary as we need to build on Saturday. As great as it was it means nothing if we revert to type tonight or on Sunday. Yes it would be nice to give some lads a run out but throw them on in the 2nd half, don't mess up the starting line up. Quote
