  1. Really thought we would have won comfortably tonight, and even more so when I saw the starting 11. This is the first time that the discontent has been publicly put to the management ( After the St Mirren game ) and we responded by gaining a well deserved point at Ibrox, I just really thought we'd push on now, but Jesus fucking Christ, how wrong I was. Hard to really single people out, because it was collectively, garbage. We insisted on passing between Devlin, McKenna & Ferguson, only to then hoof it up the Pitch. Would drop Fergsuon in a heartbeat, he brings absolutely nothing to this team, he is pathetically slow, gives away idiotic fouls and he didn't lift his head and move forward tonight until the 80th Minute. Cosgrove could be doing with getting dropped as well, he's been atrocious since he's came back from the Ban he got, wrongly I might add, for that perfectly legitimate tackle against Ajer. But then we can't go with Anderson up front on his own and I would rather bring Mackie back than play Curtis Main, period. We have no identity, we lack creativity, we lack braveness, we lack intent and we lack a competent Manager. We also lack some fight, the biggest problem I have. Apparently Cosgrove was having a go at the support as he walked towards the Tunnel, can anyone confirm? And you saw McGeouch's reaction when he was booed for passing it all the way back to Lewis, from the Halfway line, he shrugged his shoulders and put his arms out as if to say " What am I supposed to do " for a good few seconds after it, clearly rattled. We have a new Chairman & Training Ground, we have a possible new Stadium, we are debt free and have a relatively good wage budget, for me, we are an attractive opportunity to most managers and I would personally love Dave Cormack to show more ambition and part ways with McInnes, and attract someone here who has a strong mentality, indifference to Rangers & Celtic and is feared/respected ( In a good way ) who can fucking motivate Players. Thank McInnes for the League Cup, thank him for his efforts up until now, because he deserves some praise for working hard behind the scenes and making us a formidable team again, but he's in real danger of throwing that away and ending it sourly here.
  2. I know Considine is capable of covering a couple of Positions, but I am not so sure Striker is one of them
  3. I was a big fan of Markus Heikkinen, was that a JC signing or someone previous to him? I can't remember the exact details that far back I am afraid. I do remember JC signed Þórarinn Kristjánsson, and he was fucking horrific. I think he made his debut as a Sub vs Rangers?
  4. Hoping we can carry even more of a threat than we did on Saturday, because we carried a threat, but given we will see more of the ball, I am hoping we maintain the same intensity and show more guile. This comment from the BBC pretty much epitomizes what I hope from to see from us on a weekly basis! Aberdeen were all tigerish intent in Saturday's Ibrox battle, snapping into tackles and defending as if their lives depended on it. If they had left with all three points, it wouldn't have been an injustice. That level of performance, though, is required more consistently and not just against the league's heavyweights. As we have all said time and again, we have the Players to be performing much better than we have been, we need to see it week in, week out though. All that slight ease of pressure will only come back with an inept showing against St Johnstone. I remain hopeful that we will brush them aside, and finally get back in among the goals. Aberdeen 3 vs 0 St Johnstone ( Cosgrove x 2, Hedges )
  5. I thought we started well and had 2 good opportunities to score ( Cosgrove x 2 ) They didn't register their first effort until the 31st Minute, and even that creature Tom Commentator ( Don't know his right name ) said he wasn't used to seeing teams come and play this way ( A comment echoed by Gerrard after the game ) I think we were worthy of our Point, both Keepers had a good game, thought we were fairly solid defensively, but something isn't right with Cosgrove, he's been so far off the pace it's unreal, his touch when through one on one was fucking amateur, before the break, he's burying that! Still not convinced that McGeouch, Ferguson & Ojo can play in the same team to be honest, but they all put in a good shift. Wee mention to Gallagher, thought he came on and caused problems, initially, he was direct and forced a couple of saves, perhaps just off Cosgrove is his Position? Anyway, a merited Point, a decent showing and now we really need to build on it, Motherwell lost today, which helps.
  6. It's becoming increasingly obvious that the man has ran out of " Ideas " He can play the victim to Cormack etc... claiming we need players, all he wants, but he won't change our " Style " and any man and their dog can see, after 2 games, that McGeouch, Ojo & Ferguson are not compatible in the midfield, they are far too similiar. I just saw on Social Media there that we haven't scored from open play in 4 games now, we visit Ibrox next week, so I doubt that'll change. It's disgraceful and should not be happening. He's a boring cunt, a very stubborn cunt, we have the personell to be more adventurous and more of a threat, but he's adamant on this crazy long ball game, I have saw people defending him, saying he can't be coaching it, so answer me this then you fucking sycophantic enablers, why the fuck do we do it every game? Of course it's coached, fuck off. We need, and have done for 18-24 months now, a new Manager.
  7. Kennedy signing today/tonight. Agreed a fee with them, not sure if one of our Players is involved heading their way.
  8. I fully appreciate that a lot of you won't even give this a listen, and I am in no way a " Fan " of his, but this was pretty good, and probably hit home because of my own Fathers illness, I thought it was relatable and glad I listened to it. " I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine "
  9. I didn't even remotely enjoy Jojo Rabbit I like Taika Waititi as well, I just never got into it all and actually thought it got worse as it went on.
  10. Correct, a fucking bonkers addition, he's rank rotten & should never have been signed. You'll get the odd oddball that'll defend him, saying he's not getting service ( When played ) etc.... but if you look at his career stats, you'll see quite clealry that he's just not a good Player, simple as, and smacked of an utterly lazy signing. I hope he leaves, wether it's for Kennedy in this window, or just in general.
  11. Has there ever been a Player with similiar injuries who went on to have a decent career, Injury wise I mean? For me personally, we'd be mental to pass up on him if he does get back to fitness, I agree some sort of pay per play deal would be preferred but the guy was easily our best defender in the games he played, he brought something that no-one else did, or still does, in that he was absolutely composed, didn't panic and hoof the ball away and could pick a pass, he was comfortable with both feet as well. I thought he was excellent in his time here and really hope it works out for him.
  12. What is the situation with Tommie Hoban? The latest a few Months ago was that he could be on way back here and we offered to help him regarding his Injury, I can't remember when he sustained the Injury and how long he'd be out for because of it. He was released by Watford at the end of the 2018–19 season, and returned to Aberdeen to continue his rehabilitation. That's according to Wikipedia, but was it confirmed that he actually did come back here?
  13. Coached, pure and simple. I remember watching the warm up in the Burnley game, the TV folk were doing a feature on Cosgrove and as the Camera went to him, he happened to be speaking to McInnes, you could clealry make out that McInnes said " Any contact ( Whilst he was doing the backing up motion ) just go down " A lot of our goals involve set pieces, we work incredibly hard on them, at least that's what we're told every week. It annoys the fuck out of me as well, but imagine where would be without him, we'd be a St Mirren or a St Johnstone. What a fucking sad state of affairs.
  14. McInnes confirms that New York Red Bulls are interested in Cosgrove, whilst confirming that he's trying to do a deal with St Johnstone for Kennedy in this window, as there has been encouragement from them, they want Devlin as part of the deal apparantly. Mark Gallagher will join from Ross County's development squad next week.
  15. Seems like we're doing things right off the pitch, but, as has been the case for approaching 3 years, on the pitch is a different story. I don't really give a fuck how much of the ball we had, or how many chances we created, we needed a Penalty to get beyond the team sitting 6th in League 1. I get it though, we are in the next round, that's all that matters. Hopefully we get drawn against another League 1 team in the next round.
  16. Hi. Are you Pro or Anti McInnes? What's your fav colour? What's your fav food? Who is your fav Dons and non Dons player? Do you prefer Rangers or Celtic? Do you identify as the same sex you were at birth? Obviously taking the piss, I am bored and sat at the PC eating a Pot Noodle, just trying to entertain myself. Welcome aboard Piddler.
  17. Saw the latest Terminator last night, absolutely shite. As bad as the rest of them ( Barring 1 & 2 of course ) Jojo Rabbit or Motherless Brooklyn for tonight
  18. Which part? I was being completely sarcastic about the whole implementing new ideas.
  19. Looked like an utterly pointless exercise, in where we still managed to lose. Great to see some other ideas being implemented other than long aimless punts up to Cosgrove.
  20. https://www.rosscountyfootballclub.co.uk/squads/reserve-team/mark-gallagher/ Allegedly becoming an Aberdeen Player in the not too distant future.
  21. McGeouch signing today according to Keith Downie and Tom White. Dunne is a Loan according to Alan Nixon, but there are several clubs interested in him so far from done, but you'd have to imagine that if Burnley's interest in McKenna is legitimate, then they'll probably add Dunne's loan as part of any deal, if it happens this month though, it at least gives us until the end of the Season to replace McKenna long term, when Dunne goes back to Burnley. Hey, at least it's not Dorrans Would like O'Donnell on board as well to be fair.
  22. I have heard that it's Liam Lindsay. Regarding Dorrans, I'd be very surprised if there was any truth in it, but if there was, I'd much rather we just gave Gleeson a fair crack of the whip! And I'd probably plump for O'Donnell over Logan these days personally, Logan was easily one of the top RB's in the League for a few seasons, but his regression has been pretty concerning, he's error prone, positionally poor and persists with backing off and failing to close down ( Although, I have a feeling that's maybe being coached these days, as the majority of our Players seem to be doing it ) We shall see.
