  1. This is what a limited vocabulary does to people. They aren't able to express themselves properly. The words they do know they don't know how to spell so they are ostensibly fucked.

     

    :wave:

     

     

     

     

     

    What does ostensibly mean?  ;)

  2. I'd rather we eradicated the Durrant song from the stands completely!

     

    I couldnae gie a flying fuck about Ian Durrant. But I'm sure Neil Simpson doesn't need constant reminder of the incident that eventually drove him out of Scottish football.

     

     

     

    Who drove Simmie out of Scottish football. Not Aberdeen or the tackle. It was only a tackle that was a wee bit unfortunate; the ball moved and Durrants knee was in the way, but the leg breakers that fuckwit and others tried to put in our players were ok in the game were they? The wankers in the West coast press and Rangers hounded him out.  They still constantly go on about Durrant etc, so fuck em.....have it back with interest.

  3. We're definitely suffering his loss.

     

    The UEFA cup is a bit of a distraction from the league at the moment.  If/when we eventually get knocked out (hopefully not until next year) it should enable us to focus on the league.  The squad doesn't seem big enough (or perhaps fit enough) for all the games at the moment.

     

    Saturday was an awful performance but its still pretty close for 3rd spot between 4 teams.  I still think we can do it.

     

    We did surprisingly well in the 80's with a tiny squad, thats no excuse. And as for players not being fit enough for so many games, give me a break; what are the coaching staff playing at if a group of high-level (using that term loosley) professionals cannot handle more than a game a week in this day and age?

  4. One thing that just awes me about this game every time i see it is just the attacking nature of the Dons. Every move is on the attack. In the leadup to McGhee's goal, I counted EIGHT Aberdeen players all standing on the verge of offside! None of this patient buildup shit that we see today. Fergie's Dons never ever gave the opposition a moment to catch their breath.

     

    Who got the other two?

  5. Dingus gets a hat trick but he still says Willie's performance is THE best he's ever seen in Europe. And considering he was 279 years old at the time (Archie, not Willie)... that's saying something...

     

    Great McGhee got a hat-trick, but the whole team performance was fantastic, and Willie Miller was absolutely out of this World. One of the best displays in an Aberdeen shirt; he was absolutely everywhere that night, just superb.

  6. We've got to remember this all came from the reliable source that is Aberdeen Journals.

     

    Miller probably walked into the dressing room after the game supping his champagne and saying "scored one, set one up and man of the match".   JC then said "aye but your set-up play was shite".

     

    It's hardly a dressing room kiss and tell or a Roy Keane type moment of madness.  Miller will have been called a lot worse and by his own fans.

     

    Why didn't you just explain it like that in the first place!!! ;)

  7. Maybe.

     

    But then you're not the manager and if like you suggest he's just mouthing off for the sake of it then he'd have done it to the whole squad and not just a select few.

     

    Personally Miller looks like he's the type that needs to be reminded to keep his feet on the ground and work hard (wasn't too long ago he was being lambasted for strutting around the park producing fuck all).  Seve on the otherhand seems to be fairly quiet and looks like he could be a wee sulk if someone had a pop.  Clark, well, he'd probably greet.

     

    Let's just see how he responds before yet another pop at the manager because if he can't tell the players they're not performing, then who can?

     

     

    Suppose we'll just have to wait and see. Hopefully the lad will do the business in particular against Copenhagen; then Jimmy can mouth off in the press for ever more. Happy days. (potentially)

  8. Or, in other words, "go on then, prove me wrong..." Normally, i'm not really one to praise Jimmy's meeja interaction, but i think he's done most things right this week. Miller's set some good standards this season, and this should maybe ensure he keeps to them.

     

     

     

    There's a time and a place for that course of action, but surely not with one of our best players who's just hit form. Maybe if it was used a long time ago with the likes of Clark or Severin it would have been necessary.
