Elgindon

Yip,got away with a 0 - 0. We were frustrating to watch,just couldn't get into a rythym,whereas Hibs were slick and effective ,shoulda won by a couple.Duk was in discomfort from the first half and off the pace as a result,as were a few others. Got away with re Hearts,surely be a bit more disciplined next game.

Traffic a made from the South already. Came via Torry to avoid Dee brig

^^P and J reported it,and here too https://www.footballscotland.co.uk/spfl/nicky-devlin-verge-aberdeen-transfer-26896940

Hibs players lined up and applauded us onto the pitch too.

Bought a ticket for a work colleague about 4.30.Must have been one of the last to go. Are the Gothenburg boys onto the pitch at some stage?

No tickets left in the Mainer,having to mingle with the great unwashed (section Y) Big crowd should work in our favour.Don't think the Hun result should have much affect on the players.Need to get at the Hibs defence early In - Y Pre/post - Driving Prediction - 3 - 1 Dons Miovski,Clarkson,Hayes

Soaking up the pressure,Roos doing well,unlucky on the break a couple of times ...and goal the Tims

Well,here goes.Not confident,but wasnt 2 weeks ago either. Prediction 2 - 2 Miovski,Clarkson

As said,it was hard for the club not to give him the job,along with the need to push on with sorting contracts and new player searches.Think a 2 year contract was the right length for both sides too. Think Robsons got a good football brain,though he sometimes comes across a bit,cant be arsed with the spotlight.Hoping he learns to settle into the role more over time

Great to hear re McDonald

He nearly always says or explains something you dont hear a manager normally say

Didnt see that coming at H/T,what a second half,what a result.Was still twitching with 5 to go,waiting for the dodgy penalty or something but didnt happen.Sets us up nicely for 3rd spot,and its financial rewards.Also hearing that we're in negotiations with Bristol regards a £2m deal for McRorie,who I like,but we'd be mad not too accept that sort of money.Great end to the weekend

Pfft,did well to get to H/T at 0 - 0. 80% posession to them.Hope Barrys got a plan B second half.A bit of composure,stringing passes together might help. Duncan off,Coulson or Barron on?

Just back from the Highland league title decider at Buckie.Seen Buckie a few times recently,and this was the poorest Ive seen them.Brechin not much better but prob deserved it.Good crowd inc a large noisy contingent from Brechin

Re - Duncan,was a tough game to see what he's made of over 90 mins,the Hun game might give opportunity to express himself more. Also be interesting to see if Robson's current style are what we continue to see going forward, or to stabilise us for now and we get to see if he has more about him tactically in future game situations

Uncomfortable but good win in the end.If we can make better use of the ball when we have it in these type of games it might be less squeeky bum Pressure on Hearts. Hope we appeal the Shinnie red card. Re Clarkson - says he's loved every minute here, hopefully a deal can be done but maybe optimistic

Fair play to Phil Gould for taking the time to do all that Fine job,and still a great drummer....

I'd planned to go to this,but luckily it was already sold, as Ive only now realised its on the Fri pm Oot Prediction - We'll need to be up for it.Take an ugly 1 nil - Clarkson special

Agreed but Jimmy never tried them together long enough. Was either Miller and Mackie,or Lovell and flippin Mackie,rarely Miller/Lovell for some reason Harper/Archibald Tie for 2nd place Shearer/Paatelainen v Miovski/Duk

Good result,healthy crowd and Hearts continuing to fall apart,not a bad afternoon. Some good passages of play along with spells of untidy stuff.Duk and Miovski Linked up better than of late. Duncan wasn't far off the pace,but made a mixture of poor choices and clumsy passes which you'd hope would improve with a run of games.Got the attributes of a good player. Nobody brilliant but Hayes,Miovski ,Duk and Clarkson all good. Roos,dodgy kicking aside, made some important saves.Like to think we can get more out of them before the season ends Had to leave at 4.30 just before Bavidge came on,sounds like he didn't look out of place? Hopefully means we see more of him

Defence never looked as assured when McKenna left,which affected Lewis confidence IMO,along with deteriorating standard of latter McInnes signings

Think Scales and Coulson did well together last time they were in the same side(Motherwell?). Coulsons got more tricks up his sleeve than Jonny for a stuffy defence like Killie.Stick with Duk and Miovski first half and get Watkins on second if one of them not cutting it. In Mainer(very few tickets left) Prediction - Killie played well last w/e,take a scrappy 2 - 1 win. Miovski back on track x2

Did Swansea have much money? Curious,as i cant actually mind,but maybe he'd relish the underdog type club.Fairly had them punching above weight

Made a few quid might fancy the challenge...

Was driving listening on radio second half. Sounded a bit lucky to hang on for the 3 points.Will take it,with Hearts and Hibs bottles crashing. Keep our eye on St Mirren though.
