Ask Shay if he would consider playing for Celtic one day.

Ask Robson if he would consider being a coach for Celtic one day.

No they haven't. Two thirds of our allocation are for seats that have an unacceptably awful view. They should have insisted that we either be given half the North stand or all of it. We're now just cutting our nose off to spite our faces (correctly) without a public statement of why we're doing so. It's a fucking mess, and we'll be left with a smaller support as a result of it.

 

We should be making a public statement to say why we're not selling the tickets block by block and slating the SFA/SFPL on our allocation in the process. It's fucking obvious that the seats that are closer to the sides have the best view, and that they would sell before those in the centre of the ends.  This could all have been avoided, and we could still hand back some tickets to der Hun so that the overall semis pot could be higher. This is not an AFC issue, and the club should be making that very clear.

I may be wrong but am sure I read somewhere that Aberdeen asked for half the North stand but SPFL refused them that option to keep the huns onside.

Awaiting another Aberdeen statement to confirm or deny the D.R article is true or false.

Will be interesting to see if the completely unbiased Scottish media will support the Dons or take the side of the SPFL and the Sevco fans on this one.

Aberdeen have played a blinder on this one regardless of the attendance. 

Because it's just been introduced?

Missed that bit.

You can bet your bottom dollar that it will never be used by the SFA.

Northern Ireland chiefs have blocked stayaway hitman Kyle Lafferty from playing for The Rangers at Hamilton on Sunday.

I never knew there was a FIFA five-day rule. Why has it never been used before.

Good on N.I 

The Scottish Professional Football League has written to Aberdeen to voice anger at the club's refusal to sell League Cup semi-final tickets block by block, which would have allowed unsold tickets to be sold to Rangers fans. The Dons have sold 10,000 tickets from their allocation of 20,300 amid fears that unsold tickets could cost the four semi-finalists a cut of an additional six-figure sum.

It has started already.

Bring it on.

What a fucking shame for the SPFL and the 10.000 Sevco fans 

McCann no more

 

Hun Bastard anyway 

Back to Sky and his views on how a team should be playing a game of football. 

If (when) we don't sell all our tickets for this one it'll be hard to complain about future allocations. For the club to stand up for the fans - for once - and argue for more than initially allocated, and be given more, and then not get the support of the fans is pretty poor.

I believe this will be the way forward until Aberdeen and the rest of the SPFL clubs come to their senses regarding the bias regarding Celtic and Rangers. With total TV coverage these days no need to travel down on a Sunday to Glasgow and watch your club play anymore. Is the lack of tickets sales down to fans making a statement or just an excuse not to travel, I don't really know but I can see it getting worse due to fan apathy in the future.

According to the latest rumours the latest Aberdeen ticket sales for semi are under 9000.

Will be lucky if we reach 15000. 

Yes sir.

 

Topping the group means what? What happens next? I don't understand this competition. 16 groups A1 to D4. Then what?

We won't have to worry about that 

Don't quote me on it though.

Alex McLeish is now fighting for his job big time.

He spouts some shite at his post match interviews.

With Israel beating Albania to top Scotland's Nations League group McLeish must win the remaining fixtures or he will be back on Sky and BT advertising himself for another job...... again.

IF all the four Aberdeen players play at the same time in a Scotland match I may watch the game.

And if AFC had any ambition whatsoever, they would invest in making sure we were one of those two teams. An extra 2 or 3 million now would be returned tenfold if we could do what we've already done for four years, which we won't because where others have progressed, we are standing still at best.

I agree with you.

It saddens me to say it but we will now play second fiddle to the Ugly Sisters for the conceivable. 

Read somewhere that The Rangers are doing so great in Europe that the UEFA coefficient will soon mean two clubs from Scotland will compete in the UEFA Champions League very soon.

Happy days again for the SFA/SPFL/Celtic and The Rangers.

After my post earlier on the mental health of McLeish some one on Twitter posted this:

just listened to all McLeish's post match comments.. i'm even more concerned now than i was last night. came across as confused and worryingly oblivious to what actually went on last night.

I can see him quitting soon on health reasons.

You miss the only fucking point.

What point.... This....  total disregard for a human being, however fucked up he is.  I realise he has mental problems.

Now I see Vinnie Jones has joined in the backlash

"I'm absolutely outraged with this.

"There's a lot of issues there. When Gazza went to Rangers it lightened up Scottish football."They were proud as punch the Scottish FA to have someone of Gazza's calibre playing in Scotland."I am ready to give him a big cuddle. This has really hurt me and I know it's going to hurt him real bad. It's an embarrassment to the Scottish FA.

Wrong. It was stupid to nominate a non-Scot in the first place and its nonsense to even have such a thing but McCoist is absolutely right. The bigger crime is their total disregard for a human being, however fucked up he is. To say he's getting it and then withdraw it is incompetence on the grandest scale.

I have said before in this post that it should be for Scottish people only.

McCoist is a hun who wants to be loved by everbody in Scottish football.

As far as I can recall Paul Gascoigne was a fouling prick in the 3 years he played in Scotland.

The SFA are incompetent but on this occasion they reached the right outcome. 

The hun Ally McCoist has joined the other morons claiming Paul Gascoigne’s Hall of Fame withdrawal as an ‘absolute embarrassment.

“How can they release something saying Paul Gascoigne has been inducted into the Scotland Hall of Fame; great, Paul gets a boost, Paul’s fans get a boost and then all of a sudden with nine games to go say it has been withdrawn?

“It’s an embarrassment, it’s an absolute embarrassment.”

:laughing:

no.... it is an embarrassment that he was nominated in the first place.

According to the Statement League ( I know ) Celtic are top along with St Mirren on 8.

Aberdeen are on 7 which surprises me as I thought that The Rangers would be ahead of us but only on 6.

https://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/competitions/premiership/revealed-celtic-lead-scottish-premiership-statement-league-1-4813978

I am sure this is bullshit. 

Did not see the match but judging by all reports Scotland were really dire tonight.

Folk on Social media calling for the head of Alex McLeish already.

Watching Mcleish in interviews he seems to hesitate to any questions asked by the journalists It's as if he is not sure what to say to questions asked of him. I hope he is mentally okay.

Plug pulled on him being inducted.

Good news, but still does not explain why the Scottish Football Hall of Fame committee gave the go ahead in the first place.

What guys are on this committee and has anybody ever heard of them. 

The SFA/SPFL and all the Scottish Media are praying for a Sevco V Celtic Cup final.

Let's just hope that Aberdeen V Hearts can do Scottish Football a favour and contest the Betfred Cup Final.

Correct. We've been thinking about this one for a few days and have decided not to go. Normally have a full bus load. Not this year.

Snap.

The Scottish media will make a big thing of this if the Aberdeen fans fail to buy their allocation of the tickets but who cares anymore. Fans of other clubs have to stand up against this total disregard for all clubs in Scottish Football apart from the Glasgow Two.

Our club may suffer but they want a strong Sevco in the Scottish Premiership.

Laudrup's first season at the former club known as Rangers was the best I've ever seen.

 

Henrik Larsson was exceptional.

 

Those two + Gazza were the best footballers to have played in Scotland in my opinion.

 

Charlie Nicholas was class.

The rules of induction is one big joke. Some SFA members are boycotting the event. Even the English version states that the nominees must have resided in England for at least 5 years before they are included. Just another reason to change the rules.

Gascoigne was one of the three best footballers ever to play in Scotland.

Who are the other two ?

In my opinion to be inducted in the Scottish Football Hall of Fame you must be Scottish and not because the person happens to play for Rangers or Celtic.
