  1. Always liked David Begg too,canna believe he said that. Flippin poultice
  2. OK,I'll get it https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/borders/
  3. Not sure how mobile you are but getting the circulation going with a bit of regular daily walking can help Is it the S/W youre at? https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/galloway/
  4. Wouldnt be surprised,assuming Mckenna is still with us,that if the defence becomes more reliable,McInnes feels more justified in continuing with game management. "Looking to see the game out at 1 - 0" with 45 mins left,goes against instincts,and the object of the game.Going by yesterday,the players dont seem to be comfortable with it.If you have too fixed a mindset like that,does it allow for opportunities in the game when the opposition defence look vulnerable and might be worth going at. Attack is a problem for us.If we dont look to attack with intent regularly enough,we surely take the edge off how we do it effectively. Am hoping, as a McInnes fan,he negotiates a bit more with his ideas,both to grow as a manager,and to avoid him (and us) becoming stale doing the same old year in/out,...despite the relative success of recent years.A stable defence should be an opportunity to loosen the reins a bit.
  5. Sam Roscoe was also on the bench recently,...had good reviews.Hopefully another option in the near future
  6. Juicy looking game.One of few away games I would consider driving down to these days,but away this w/e. Go with an on the deck,pacy attack and it could be a cracker. Also going with 2 - 3 scoreline Wright,GMS,Ferguson
  7. Not sure the guy on this forum is ITK,or having a pessimistic guess.Hope he's right http://www.acciesworld.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1248&start=20
  8. Agreed,great servant,down to earth loon,though I think he could be in his last season at left back.Happy with him in defence,think he performs better when the other defender is more prominent
  9. Never got into them,but mind them as far back as the late Seventies becoming regulars in Aberdeen.Decent innings for a band. ps If thats your recording,my brother and his bit o stuff are about 4 rows ahead
  10. Nice Netlights Dont appear to be other highlights anywhere.Betfred only have highlights of Celtic and sevco,understandably
  11. Ach well,Hibs it is.....
  12. Yogi 'shree' Hughes joins the list of fine Sportsound orators I see
  13. Hibs 2 v County 2

    Sad news,down to earth girl with one of the great voices...
  15. Disappointing to hear about Jewel in the Crown.Was always one of the better ones.Last time we were in,(after recommendations about 3 years ago),we all thought it was great.Shame if its going downhill Staying on Crown St,is that Shanghai restaurant actually open for business? Maybe need to look at their image consultant if it is Will hae a run out to Echt Tandoori and report back,driven past too many times
  16. Good points above. Ignoring the corruption in Euro fitba competition for now it's a welcome change of scene from Dumbarton in the league cup.We could have set ourselves up a bit financially, if we'd taken our chances the last few years. On the whole,enjoyed all the euro games of recent years
  17. I was just going to mention Jim Hermiston.Mind me and my pal asking for a kick about with him as he sunned himself at his caravan in Moray in the 70s.Think he was late 20s when he became a bobby,and moved to Oz.Someone else become a bobby. Thomson? canna mind Malcolm Kpedekpo went into private equity
  18. Like i said,it winna happen, but if Anderson offered more against Rangers than our other strikers,its a no brainer to start him v 'Dee.I partnered him with McGinn because of his experience,(and because I think he's a better striker than our strikers) Harringtons a bigger risk,but bigger than Ball at R/B? am nae so sure,and this is one of the few type of games we can use to find out. All better done if the rest of the line up was more settled,but go for it,its a newish line up,and this is the time of season to try things out
  19. Just checkin' ....though that was as much about 2 square pegs in 2 round holes,....and Nwakali being a complete zoomer. Go for it Deek,a gamble now and again would do you good .
  20. If we were shite against Rangers,whats crazy about mixing it up? When do we ever mix it up,to know if its the wrong thing to do?
  21. Meant to be up Ullapool way,but if the forecast remains the same,a trip to Dens instead. 4-4-2 for me.W This line up winna happen but... Lewis Harrington Devlin Consi Shinnie GMS Ferguson Forrester Wright Anderson McGinn Hoban to L/b* if fit > Shinnie instead of Forrester *assuming he can play L/b? 4 - 1 Dons.
  22. Nah,think most folk assume Mither tap is the summit.The Oxen Craig route mentioned is quieter and far easier walking. Rocket - That sounds ace.Knew about the river Tummel for rafting,but didnt realise the Findhorn was an option https://www.adrenaline-hunter.com/en-GB/activity/uk/auchnagairn/rafting/white-water-rafting-on-river-findhorn-near-inverness/7095?_cid=110&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIut3CuPHd3AIVxbTtCh2txgbyEAAYASAAEgKHHfD_BwE While i'm at it,always fancied rafting down the Dee from Braemar to Aberdeen.Away for a search EDIT - nah,nae full trips down the Dee,but a few untried options in here https://www.activeoutdoorpursuits.com/category/activities/watersports/
  23. Failing that,I would take a punt with Harrington at R/B.If he's good enough for the bench etc,and before Ball loses the confidence he built up
  24. Thought Sevco were better than us,but dont see them as an improvement on last season. We were powder puff.Hoping it was a typical meek display v Sevco,and not a sign of whats ahead on a regular basis.Dont think I could stomach a whole season of high balls up to Cosgrove,and therefore hopeful Anderson might have done enough to be played more often and with a more creative style of football. Defence looks like it could be an upgrade this year,and hopeful if Deek sees improvement there,along with an addition or 2, he might loosen the shackles a bit more attacking wise.
  25. Dont !!....
