Carries that form on reduces our chances of a return in January.Derby fans impressed https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/33450-graeme-shinnie/page/3/#comments

Just back.Missed our goal because I couldnt see us scoring . Doesnt hide the fact at how ineffectual we were though. Both sides were amateurish in the first half.We were predictable,either punt to Cosgrove,or get it out wide and ping in a hopeful ball.Neither Ferguson nor Campbell convince me that theyre ever going to have the nous to influence enough of a game.Barely saw either of them. Was wondering how we could use Gallacher since he's here.Maybe someone to break up play and add a bit of energy to the midfield ala Willo? Alongside a cool head,like a fit Bryson etc? Ethan Ross,i would like to see what he could do with a run of games. Main? maybe trying too hard due to lack of service? ...maybe just a donkey like. Should have been 2 or 3 Hibs though,but we Doidged a bullet with their striker.Good old Sam making the most of the scraps he got.He's also pretty nifty with his feet when the balls not in the air,wish we'd try playing through teams a bit more when the punts obviously arent working Better than expected crowd,decent Hibs support,shit game.Only positive the return of McKenna side note - be interesting to know how many goals weve scored because we had to get a goal,like today,and how many weve lost or been closer to losing because we decided to manage a game

^^^can only remember one shot on target so far.poor fare from both sides. Crowd not as bad as expected.no protests

Kepp your eye out for this new party in the US. The Democratic Socialists

Cheers. Surprised you like that one,its a fairly typical West coast ridge up top.From the roadside they can look like a knife edge,but as per pic,nae that bad.Thats looking East,the better views were to the West. This thread was meant to appeal to the younger loons but I don't think there are any around here lol,so I'll stick up some easier must do hills for the discerning older gent when time Some more views from unfamiliar angles...

Done 189,..93 to do.Started doing them seriously about 5 years ago.Wee bit worried about the dodgier Skye ones.Will need to hire a guide a couple of times,but otherwise lovin' it Achnashellach ones(below) all done recently,were some of the most remote ones done so far.Lurg Mhor and the 'Cheesecake' needed a 20 mile walk.Had to stop the car at Nairn for cramp DSC00297 by , on Flickr

Tinypic has gone bust it seems.Flickr offer 1000 of free pics if anyones looking for a new site. Was up the West coast last weekend with the intention of more Munro bagging.Weather was looking good,20o plus.Got a couple of Munros done,and found out later in the evening my pal was in the area with his home built hovercraft along with a couple of other hovercrafters,and jumped at the opportunity to spend a day with them instead of hills.A great way to see Scotland from different angles with the option of landing on any sandy or gravelly beach that you wouldnt normally get near.Surprised they havnt been more popular Heading down Loch Long near Camas a Luanie DSC00441 (2) by [/url], on Flickr Glenelg bay DSC00426 by , on Flickr Sunsetting over the Cuillin from base at Lochcarron DSC00521 (2) by , on Flickr

St. Johnstone at home, 3pm Saturday Sept 14
Elgindon replied to LA-Don's topic in Aberdeen Football Club
I thought Cosgrove in the first half had been doing quite well,including some nifty footwork in tight situations,but he was poor second half(because we were pumping high balls more often?),and I would have subbed him early for Wilson,or even tried MacLennan through the middle as I didnt think McGinn was doing bad. Wasnt enough threat from midfield though.Bryson,Ojo and Ferguson were too quiet,and our movement up front in general was a bit dull. -
St. Johnstone at home, 3pm Saturday Sept 14
Elgindon replied to LA-Don's topic in Aberdeen Football Club
The first half hadn't been the worst watch as far as St J games go.Thought we were comfortable until they scored a goal which I'd thought Lewis was in the process of saving Second half we just seemed to run out of ideas.Too predictable and obvious.Needed something more imaginative,eg angled runs into the box like Ojo? or Vyner? did in the first half(but never tried again),or someone pacy to run at their defence when it was clear doing the same thing over and over wasn't working. Too many players were anonymous when we needed more. -

About to head off.A bit breezy out there,hopefully means more ball on the deck(not sure it will happen though) McGinn behind Cosgrove for me if possible.3 - 1 Dons Cosgrovex2,MacLennan COYR -
Nae sure about.Can only remember him commenting on Dons games for North sound in the nineties before moving on to Sportsound.Can't recall him doing anything between or on top of those 2 gigs?

If we've got time for an election would it not be simpler to allow us a vote on the type of Brexit we want instead? eg,No deal,....May's deal,...a n other deal. Too simplistic. ? More democratic,keeps the sleekit manouvering out of it.

On a similar subject,what is the connection with Donstalk to this effort ?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?

Quite like the look of that line up KFP,and wouldn't be unhappy with McGinn in Wilsons role if it came to it.Be fine to see something a bit more experimental from McInnes if only to divert the apathy In or Oot - In,its a thocht like Furryboots - Mainer Pre - Driving Post - Driving Prediction - Optimistic 3 - 0.

we all pumped up for this then.... link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c55otd9tvsc

Probably not but since were here,I'd add Chris Anderson,Dick Donald and Jim Leighton to LA Dons 3

To be fair to Sam,weve created about 3 chances this season,and he's converted 9 of them.Pre Rooney,We were crying out for someone with a return like Sams for years,so am not going to complain about how he gets his goals for now I also think he's a better footballer than we give him credit for,...I doubt he asks that we lump hopeless balls upto him.Quicken the tempo,get the ball on the deck, and try 2 up front,or at least experiment with it more often and see what happens. ps anyone else noticed how the guests viewing figures go from normally 10s of viewers to suddenly mid hundreds of viewers and then back down again at different times of the day??
-
We scored goals when we made more of an effort to score goals but looked more likely to concede when we made more of an effort to not concede...as we often do
-
Brysons an outside chance for Sunday I'm hearing elsewhere,..been training the last few days.A bit sad when your pinning your hopes on an aging midfielder to revive fortunes,but who knows. 1 - 1 Considine

Think it would have been close to a sell out if we hadnt played like blouses recently ,though rackon there will be nearer 16k by kick off High tempo and in their faces from the start and see what happens. COYR
