Only 2 games in but what i have seen is as entirely as i have predicted. None of these signings are good enough. I didn't want Robinson in the first place and if we don't progress in the league cup and results are poor in cominhg leage games the knives will be sharpening long before Christmas and he'll be under huge pressure, I'd love to be wrong and hope Robinson is a success. Sadly I can't see that happening. Clearly AFC didn't want Robinson at the outset either and 3.5 months without a manager shat the bed and panicked after Dunfermline.

Be interesting to see if we have a game plan for this, as we've lacked one in the first two games. Dundee beat us by playing the kind of football I thought we'd be playing under Robinson; high pressing, quick balls forward over the top of our defence, energetic midfield, pace up front. Instead in the first half we attempted to play it out from the back, were too slow and created nothing. Second half we went 4-4-2, stretched it a bit and moved it quicker, but had two guys who aren't wingers playing as wingers. If Robinson thinks all we need to do is get Lyons and Ronan in the team and start the same formation and tactics again, and it doesn't work out, then don't come out and claim the players just didn't have the desire. He has a week to think of an actual game plan.

Totally agree mate. No desire to see him wearing the colours of any other team in Scotland. On the assumption he is wanting a move away, hope he gets a decent one and leaves as a member of a small group, an Aberdeen FC Scottish Cup winning goalkeeper

From chants of abuse and derision To Nisbet’s penalty precision Is there anything sweeter in rhyme Than a winner in injury time? Alexa….play Joy Division 💪

Mitov away to St Pauli in Germany on a three year deal. Medical to be completed later today. Source Anthony Joseph I just have a sneaking feeling we might regret this one.

McInnes will get a lot less time than Robinson will. Seen somebody wanting Russell Martin back 😂

Boooooooo at Snake Mountain. The orcs are already turning on McInnes.

A 15 year old who looked more like a footballer who would create chances than the man he replaced Not having a go at Olusanya- we all know his limitations- but the manager / recruitment team have signed players that are a definite downgrade on even some of the project players and the 40 yard crossfield hoofs up to Nisbet Yogane and Olusanya, while being unable to defend is genuinely worrying Didn’t think Mayo would be great for us but maybe more aggressive than Milne Both are not good GW is not a defender Communication at back is lacking- no leader, and Muller looks like Bobby Clark when there is little chance of him getting close to the ball Midfield offered little protection but one v ones we were second best all over the park Robinson said last week that we wouldn’t have won the game last season as though he had installed a fighting and winning mentality- he just got lucky Today showed how weak a squad we have built and he needs to take some responsibility for that

Lo! Our mighty defence - all in white What a resolute, glorious sight! Bevan made them his bitch left for dead on the pitch like a drunk seagull's skittery shite

Please be Stephen Robinson.

Surely that should be Michty.

I read his name as Mighty rather than Mitchy, and I think I'll just stick with it.

It'd been a while since we had an injury, was starting to get worried Tobers would have nobody to talk to.

I bet Kieran Tierney was shitting himself after reading that.

How long have you been waiting for a chance to shoehorn that one in 😂

They would have been confiscated from the local deviants, I reckon. Good on the minister for taking this filth out of the community.

Müller, Armstrong and Nisbet the only ones to get pass marks, and even then a 6/10 at best. Mouloua to be fair to him puts himself about and works hard, and I think there's some potential in there. However, Guiness-Walker has some neat footwork, but as a defender I'll be surprised if he makes it at this level. Constantly out of position, can't tackle, can't pass. In the first half Yogane would face up to two defenders, we were crying out for a full-back to overlap and offer an option, and Guiness-Walker just stood back and watched him. A horrendous performance. Give Mitchell Frame everything he wants and get him in the team ahead of him. Played better in the second half when we went 4-4-2/4-2-4, but Briedl I'm hoping is just trying to settle in and can improve, I pray the Mighty Belgian is better than Olusanya, and I'm not sure I'm that stuck on Mayo. What's our game plan and style of play? Improved at 4-4-2 but have we signed a team to play that? We don't have any out and out wingers. Olusanya getting 80 minutes because the alternative was only 15 years old. Only positives really is at least we have quite a few players to come back. Lobban, Tobers, Knoester, Frame (?), Ronan, Lyons, Ntelo, and if you want to count him, Bilalovic.

Well that was everything I expected and less. Subjected a 15 year old Nottingham Forest fan to that too. His comment 'this is like when Ange was our Manager' was too kind. Hes adopted partick thistle as his scottish Team. They have less misery

Worrying for me is that today’s midfield was no better than last years midfield. I think Ronan and Lyons are good signings, and I think aremu is decent, but concerned briedl is the new palaversa, and neither wide player looks an upgrade on what we’ve had in recent seasons. A good midfield make your defense look better and creates chances plus scores goals. A bad midfield gives what we got today.

Roberto Martinez is the favourite with the turf accountants. Ex-Don Toni Kombouare (75) is also quoted at 18-1. Alex Ferguson is 40-1, for some reason.

Obi Wan and Cadden are definitely downgrades on what we had.

The skills level in this team is absolutely bloody atrocious.

Great goal-saving defensive tackle by Olusanya on Mouloua.

Robinson will be out by xmas and the cycle will begin again. As I said before Olusanya is the benchmark we have created. Utter shite.

Sneaked off the balcony as 2-1 Hibs.

would defo prefer if he went to a different league.

Niall McGinn has left his part time roles with us and Peterhead, for a full time role, back home, with Derry City.

I see Infantino is holding on to his job for now. Got to love the wording of that UEFA statement the other day. "This model has no place in world football. Football’s future cannot be dictated by the expectations of those whose first duty is to maximise financial return. Nor can the interests of national associations, leagues, clubs, players and supporters become subordinate to investor returns." I take it the high and mighty will be dividing all Champions League money equally this season then. Something about pot and kettle........

Jayden Stockley has signed for the Dons!

In fairness, none of the rest of that starting line up from Saturday have been there long enough to work out where the tunnel even is

well he has certainly started taking to it well. There was a fair amount of pressure on that spot kick against the diets. And to stand up and slot it away as confidently as he did, speaks volumes for his character. Most of the pundits I have heard comment on it all saying the same thing. I get the leadership thing that Robinson and other keep mentioning but somebody needs to walk oot first and wear the arm band and personally I think he is the perfect choice for that form what we have. And he has certainly had a solid start to the season and his confidence will grow with every goal.

A couple of beers in on the train this Saturday and it’s happening.

Must be time for someone in the stands to start tweaking the words to Mrs Robinson. Could be the new theme in the Red Shed. ............here's to you Stevie Robinson, Pittodrie loves you more than you will know, woah, woah, woah

An interesting fact about Danny Welbeck is that his father, Stan, worked in bomb disposal.

I very near choked on my dinner When Nisbet scored the match winner As Hearts fell apart I let out a fart And now I’m a tiny bit thinner

Martinez led Belgium to third place in the 2018 World Cup and won the Nation's League with Portugal. But it helps if you're blessed with world class players at international level. Which we are not. Also, his wife is Scottish, therefore he is Scottish by marriage.

That was worse than anything under Thelin. Abysmal from start to finish. Long balls into corners seemed to be our only attacking plan. Aremu and Briedl were complety over run in midfield. Cadden and Guinness Walker were roasted by a Dundee’s wingers while ours offered nothing. Cannot say I will be rushing back to watch that again.

It's going to be another grim season.

The good news is that it's over. The bad news is that we have to play them again next week.

Didn’t think our defence could be worse than last season

Agree, very poor, especially in midfield. Little drive or leadership. Other than Armstrong and aremu, few even seem to want the ball. Whats worse is little on the bench to change center midfield, maybe Milne for briedl?

Fair enough if they stopped the “frivolous” stuff as I wasn’t aware of that - cause that Shinnie call was a complete disgrace - but that appeal by the diets was entirely frivolous. It was solely based on “a genuine attempt to play the ball”. Ridiculous claim, and there is no universe in which that could ever been seen as anything other than frivolous nonsense. Still its done now and justice remains served. Dusting off Joy Division for the Benfica goal fest tonight. Should be as equally hilarious as the last 5 minutes on Saturday…

Ed 'Fuckin' Sheeran - Castle On The Hill

Glad the dons are only considered category B

Played well by all accounts. Will be a tough game on Saturday

Not sure about that quote but sounds like it could be right. He definitely was giving it large pre 2025 Cup Final about eating his hat if Aberdeen won. Surprise, surprise he didn't. The worst type of arsehole in that he actually thinks he's funny
