Will be tuning in. COYR!

Not much to say about that. Not a great watch. Motherwell came to frustrate, sit in and try and hit us on the break. We take the 3 points and move on. My score prediction was way off but I did get Livi beating County right.

In for this. Think we’ll win. Goals galore 4-2 Aberdeen. Livi to beat Ross County to put any relegation play-off fears to bed.

Is Shinnie suspended for this one after his red card Vs Dundee?

I don’t entirely disagree that it’s a nonsense but compared to some of the pens we’ve conceded this season for handball, that contact with Scales’ arm is 100% a foul.

I hadn’t seen that angle but that makes me feel a bit better that we weren’t denied a stonewall penalty - just an attacking free kick 19 yards from goal. Amazing the assistant didn’t see that.

Agreed, it’s really gone down hill. Doesn’t stop me from listening to it though, unfortunately. It’s designed to get people riled up.

Get rid. His “injury” during the shootout and subsequent delaying of Duncan’s penalty was a disgrace. I can’t stand the prick.

For me, Scales is 100% in the box. If it’s on the line, it’s inside the box. Stonewall penalty. VAR should be able to see that. The Hoilett penalty, there’s a foul in the build up on Johnson. It may be soft but it’s probably the correct decision. The issue is the ref taking so long to blow the whistle, causing more confusion than it should have. St. Johnstone had a goal ruled out against us for a similar foul on McGrath.

Bit harsh on JC that. Gave me some of my greatest memories following The Dons - including proper European football. Had a pretty good record Vs them at pittodrie (3-2 Jamie Smith anyone?) Not so much at Ibrox mind you.

Was that nae the gorilla that was shot in 2016 that kick started the beginning of the end of the world?

If we’re lucky we might only get 2 home games - even though that would mean 18 home / 20 away. I wouldn’t really care tbh. With the teams in the bottom 6 we are due Livi and Motherwell at home, Ross Co, St Johnstone and Hibs away. I thought we were alright first half but the reluctance to take a shot on is so frustrating. We got into some really good positions but we’re toothless. Get this season in the bin.

Yeah Large adult. Sent you a PM.

The Northern Lights kit? I’ll sell you mine if you can’t find a new one. Barely worn, it was an impulse purchase. Can send you pics in DM.

The Swedish league breaks after the fixtures on 1st/2nd June until 7th July so makes sense he’d join after that.

Just saw the AFC statement. So VAR just guessed that MacDonald was offside and overruled the onfield decision. Un-fucking-believable except it’s not really. https://www.afc.co.uk/2024/04/10/club-statement-video-assistant-referees/

That offside call was far from obvious and the fact they didn’t draw lines absolutely stinks. Even McFadden and McCann thought the goal should’ve stood since it was too close to call. We have VAR and they half arsed it. Fucking joke.

I actually hate Hampden as a venue, it’s a fucking dump. I think the last time I was there was the 2012 Scottish Cup semi against Hibs - just one of the numerous games we failed to turn up in. Add to the fact it’s supposed to be a neutral venue but the bigots have their own ends - it’s a disgrace. I have zero desire to return there. I don’t blame or judge anyone for not going to the upcoming semi final. It’s been a long, hard, expensive season so far for Dons fans.

The 2 CBs give me the fear. Hopefully we will mostly be attacking and keep the ball away from our box.

Looking like a decent crowd for this one, less than 1500 tickets left. In RDR 5-0 (Miovski x3, McGrath x2)

Not against O’Neill coming in but I hope we’re not spending a fortune to release him for the NI job. Having said that, maybe we’re in a bit of a “beggars can’t be choosers” situation if several of our preferred candidates have rejected us.

Agreed* *Assuming the new technical director is qualified for the job and not just another puppet.

I am getting to the point where I don’t think keeping Leven as caretaker until end of the season would be a disaster - if it means waiting to get the right person in. Warnock’s departure has caught the FMB with their pants down. Obviously, if the right person is available then get them in the door but I hope the club don’t rush this and do it properly.

Not for one second did I buy into that link. Thelin no longer in the running for Dons job is akin to when Eamonn Holmes said he wouldn’t date Taylor Swift. Saw Barry Robson walking through Cults earlier, wonder what he’s up to?
