Watching the Bayern game at home this morning and thought to myself if neither ever played for us again would Josh`s and Sone`s Aberdeen legacy be, "those two young mercaneries" recruited to save The Dons from a terrible thrashing on an historical evening for the club? Let`s be honest would a Severin or Nicholson had the guile or skill to score like they did on Valentine`s Night? SeeBass

Who out of our duds has definitely been released so far? SeeBass

I`ve been thinking a lot about my first real Euro adventure and have started writing a short story about it. OK we only made the Last 32 but the 'quality opposition' which came to Pittodrie and didn`t beat us on our own patch surprised me. Why? Because back in the 90`s we ended up on the wrong side of some embarrassing scorelines against in my opinion pretty shocking teams whilst at home. Skonto Riga, Zalgris Vilnius, Bohemians to name just a few. Should even have had the beating of Torino as I wasn`t that impressed by them either. So do we just have a better calibre of player at the club now than when in the doldrums many moons ago? Take Care! SeeBass

How about that Paraguyan fella who used to score free-kicks for fun?!!!

Have there been any players since 1989 in our ranks who`ve had a nickname with the letter P? It`s just for a new story I`m writing.

I too have never been to a Hampden Final yet but my most vivid memories are of Mason`s(always thought he was underrated) header just seeming to take an age to go in and Snelders save from Rogan too looks better every time I see it. Like poetry in motion. Mum bought me an Aberdeen goalie top not long after which to this day I still have as I had plans to replace big Theo when he retired! Loved going down the park with pals and pretending to be the Flying Dutchman with fingertip stops for the cameras over the bar and round my posts. Happy Days! Was fifteen when we beat Dundee yet can`t even remember how we scored our goals so work that one out, and did Ricco not draw us level during the Cup Final against Rangers?

Rachid Belabed, Eugene Dadi and Alex Di Rocco were a waste of time!

Also want to add whoever put the music to that 9 minutes 27 seconds clip of our European adventure is a genius. So apt for the images. Shed a tear or two remembering the good times.

Just thought about something when the final whistle went at Inverness.....when was the last time WE scored a last minute winner and secondly when was the last time we had four different scorers in a game? Anybody got the answers? Take Care. SeeBass.

I noticed whilst walking to Pittodrie for the Bayern game there were scarfs being sold along King Street with the actually date of the tie. I wanted one but didn`t have the money. Know where I can get one?

He`s my favourite player of all time! When at Ross County after I`d written him a letter to thank him for his inspiration he sent two tickets to my house for the final game of the season against Stenhousemuir the year they went upto the First Division. It finished 2-2 if I remember right. Called my flat the week before the match at Ochilview and spoke to me for around 45 minutes about the game at Easter Road that the previous weekend which we lost 2-0 thanks to Mixu Paatelainen and Pat McGinlay. I`ve never forgotten that evening and probably never will. Take Care! Lee

I was only asking! So anybody upto the job?

I wondered whether anybody would be willing to put together a short highlights package together of our Euro run and send it to me? I think I`ll just stick to writing books as I`m not very good at these sort of things. Cheers! SeeBass

OK I didn`t get to the games in Ukraine, Greece, Spain or Germany but did manage to be there for the four home ties and having travelled four hours each time to make it I have some wonderful experiences of my "first ever European campaign." Yes I`ve been a fan for 17 years but had never attended a continental match til the 0-0 draw with Dnipro. So much better being there than watching it on the box. Cried through the whole of the first half that night the atmosphere touched me that much...my first visit to Pittodrie in 12 years. Could have got hammered 5-0 and it wouldn`t have bothered me. Then there was the Lokomotiv encounter where I saw Zander score my very first `Euro goal` and the play that lead upto the corner was breathtaking. As for Copenhagen I wish I had all day to tell you how that was for me but sadly I don`t have the time as I`m in the library with nine minutes left. Suffice to say I`ll never forget everything that went with that evening. Bayern last Thursday....couldn`t have scripted it better myself. If you`d said to me my first book would be released the same day we met up again with old foes nearly 25 years on from that magical night I`d have told you to have a word with yourself! Great way to spend your first day as an official author! JC and all the lads....thanks for the memories! P.S.Maybe one day I`ll take my Aberdeen journey to greater depths by following them abroad soon.

Why is it I see wherever I look people claiming Aberdeen were fluky against Copenhagen and got lucky on Thursday versus Bayern? We live in a society which hopes to find heroes in whatever field then when they get one and we have a bit of success feel they`re getting too big for their boots. Anybody who wants to see the Dons get slaughtered in Munich because it would show us up are for me pretty sad. Football is what it is at the end of the day a source of enjoyment. Nothing more nothing less. There`s enough misery in the world as it is so why saturate football with these negative comments? It`s something I`ve never understood about humans.

I`ve spoken to Liam`s father Peter (lives five minutes down the road from me) who says his son is getting fed up of the limited opportunities at Falkirk hence why he`s on loan at St.Johnstone. I think we should go and make a move for the guy who I`ve personally known of since he was a kid as he played against my little brother in the local junior ranks here in the Scottish Borders and was always one who had the right attitude to his chosen profession. Hanging out with childhood friends and stuff on that level will never change because he`s a very grounded lad who will never lose sight of his roots whilst trying to make a name for himself in the sport. Left sided too which might give Foster and Young something to think about next season especially if Aluko doesn`t stay on after this campaign. Could even replace Mair and Byrne at full back if needed. Just a thought Dandies. Take Care! SeeBass.

Does anybody know of or have the song sheet to which somebody would play this on say a guitar? And the full list of lyrics to go with it if possible. There`s an old guy in my local strumming class that would like to learn it. Cheers In Advance. SeeBass

Can I ask what is it with all the loan signings this season? Who was the last person to join us on these type of terms? I can`t remember having one guy on loan never mind three in the same campaign in my 17 years as a Dandy. I`m not doubting Maybury, Walker or Aluko are worth their places at the club but does this reflect the way we ight go in the future for new captures? You know quantity not quality? SeeBass

Had a treble up on Tuesday....Walsall (19/10), Wycomce Wanderes (7/5) and Leyton Orient. (11/10). Times my money by 14! Of course my luck has to run out soon but hey it beats betting on horses. My Super Six for tomorrow are Kilmarnock (4/7), Dundee United (1/2), St.Johnstone (1/2), Dunfermilne Athletic (5/4), Gretna (21/20) and Hibernian (4/5). If your brave enough us do us at (7/4) and Motherwell (13/8) and make it an eight timer. Miller to grab first goal tomorrow Dons to win 2-0.

Is it just me or is their no atmosphere at our end when we goto Falkirk. Saturday was the third time I`ve been at Westfield (and I`m going to the cup game too, why I don`t know!) where I thought I was at Butlins and not a football match. SeeBass

God I`m getting brave folks...over the Xmas period I`ve had two four team accas up! Not went daft with my stake but when I had Motherwell (Evs), St.Johnstone (6/5), Raith Rovers (5/6) and Montrose (10/11) on the 29th I felt really weird picking up money on a game which had seen a player die. Phil wherever you are now pal R.I.P. Then yesterday I had Dundee United (10/11), Dunfermline Athletic (11/8), Raith (4/5) and Montrose (11/10) again which I`m waiting to pick up once I can wade through the snow to get to the local bookies! Hope You`ve Had A Good One! Take Care! SeeBass!

How about the notorious Nigel Pepper?!!

Cowie, Can I ask how much you had on it and where you got outrageous odds of 13/1? I live in the sticks 15 miles from any of the nearest big chain bookies and fifty miles from any city so my local independant bookmaker only gives his punters doubles, trebles and accumalators based on teams individual prices not a series of sides as a whole! To be honest I was a little worried for Thursday when I heard on Sky Sports that Moyes was leaving so many first team stars behind knowing that they`d won the group and had a massive match with Man U. on Sunday. Remember AZ hadn`t lost at home in the UEFA Cup for some 32 games so it was a great results for the toffees. Glad those that took part grabbed thier chances with open hands. Plus Villarreal had to make sure of qualification as their group was quite tight. Cheers! SeeBass

Did Aalborg (9/2) and Bordeaux (16/5) in a small stakes double because I realised Spartak had qualified beforehand and aren`t great travellers! Happy Days Folks! Three In A Row! Treble tonight....Atletico (8/13), Nuremberg (8/11) and Hamburg (4/7) as well as Everton/Villarreal bet. Take Care! Lee

My two doubles this week are; WEDNESDAY THURSDAY Bayer Leverkusen (11/8) Everton (19/5) Spartak Moscow (17/10) Villareal (9/4) Don`t say I didn`t warn you! SeeBass
