  1. So sorry to piss on your parade MA but, our final league standing says more about the state of Scottish football than JC's wizardry as a manager. 5 points from our final 5 games!!!! A lot of our points have come despite his tactics rather than because of them. Unentertaining football has become our trademark. Gate receipts would tend to confirm this. Seeing Russell Anderson, just as a single example, shrug towards the bench, clearly unsure of what was going on, as a substitution was made, shows even the players didn't fully understand what he was trying to do. He is good at what he does best - taking a team who are struggling a bit (and we were) and stabilising the situation. He didn't seem to have the ability to take us that step further, even to a domestic cup final/win.
  2. Totally cringeworthy and, from JC's point of view easily spun round to be seen as a mark of support for him. Therefore, apart from failing as a protest it has had the entirely opposite result from the one it set out to get. Had that been another teams supporters we would have been pissing ourselves right now, and rightly so. That protest was probably more embarrasing than the exit to Dunfermline. Carlsberg don't do protests, but if they did..................that certainly wouldn't have been one of them
  3. I know it's difficult to think of "our" team coming out all guns blazing, but it's not difficult to think of a protest before the game not affecting the players coming on to the pitch. And if the protest simply involves people walking from the pub to the main stand, you are right, doesn't need a lot of organisation, but equally not much of a protest I suspect JC is quaking in his hush puppies!!! By the way, I am a Jimmy must go man, I just think your planned "protest" is pathetic. EDIT : can't believe I typed slush, and that was before too much drink !!!!!
  4. I remember a game at Pittodrie, when Russell was still with us, JC making a substitution and Russell gesturing to the bench that he didn't have a baldy what was going on. Same old same old
  5. Decent yes, I've said before he has done well for us. But thats it, he is doing no more now and, if anything, we are in danger of going backwards now. He is certainly not taking us on that wee bit more and the cup defeats are woeful and embarrassing.
  6. Very little to be positive about. By the sound of it we stole a point from Motherwell - not that I'm bothered about that, a point is a point. Just see us getting found out by others, starting with ICT who have plenty to be hungry about. Sorry to bring it back to JC again but, in his interview just now, he still clearly thinks the fans backlash is down to three games out of over two hundred. Reckons he is definately doing "somethng right". Arrogant bastard. Win, lose or draw today was a definite chance to give a positive reaction to the fans despair, play well and show passion. I only listened to the game but it doesn't sound like this was remotely the case. As said already above, Langfield and Bebo the saviours.
  7. Aye your right, a fair uphill wander. Away to do some blood letting for you
  8. Christ min, I admitted I got it wrong and apologised, what more do you want, blood The route planner, when you put Aberdeen City Centre, defaulted to the train station.
  9. Didn't think I was too far off the mark when I typed that. I've just checked on a route planner. Train station to Pittodrie 1.71 miles, train station to Loirston 2.95 miles Apologies for misinformation.
  10. There used to be a station at Cove but there is now houses built where it used to be.
  11. In terms of distance, Loiston Loch not a huge difference from Pittodrie from city centre, if Union Street used as starting point.
  12. Oooooh errr matron
  13. Think fans have the right to show their feelings, but before the game?!?!?!
