http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/a/aberdeen/8270968.stm Ouch. Very strong words from Joe Harper. Can't say I disagree with what he's saying though. Edit: Just noticed that the article says he defended Willie Miller but if you listen to the interview he actually says that Miller should be out looking for people who will put money into the club.

Never said that Kerr had a good game by any stretch of the imagination ("the centre of midfield really is a shambles at the moment" was a bit of a giveaway ). I just said that he at least put a few tackles in. McDonald may as well have been sitting in the centre circle for 120 minutes for all that he contributed.

Kerr was certainly the better out of him and McDonald; at least Kerr got stuck in. The centre of midfield really is a shambles at the moment though. They don't seem to have the slightest clue what they should be doing. Watching Mackie last night I've decided that he actually makes the right decision a lot of the time, he just doesn't have the talent to do what he was trying to do.

Yup. My cousin is a Brighton fan and reckons that he'd fallen out with half of their first team squad by the time he left. My guess is that Aluko has been wanting to leave since Calderwood got the boot. Jimmy was one of the main reasons he signed in the first place.

Pre-season?

Just noticed this on the BBC website: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/8149200.stm Had to double check that I wasn't reading the story of Faust.

I nominate this picture for www.awkwardboners.com.

Haven't seen any of the current series yet but I got the DVD's for season 4 last month so I've just finished getting through them. I can't help but think that it's lost it a little bit though. I think I preferred it when it was more human-race's-imminent-demise rather than human-robot-rumpy-pumpy.

Got the whole lot on DVD. Some of it is a bit cheesy but the third series in particular is brilliant.

I guess I must be living in a parallel universe where Mackie had a good game

20. He once made up a list of BNP members and posted it online.

I was under the impression that the boos Langfield got were down to him punting it up the field instead of throwing it to either the full back (who always seemed to be in acres of space)?

Got this yesterday - really liking it so far. Seems a little less leftfield than Return to Cookie Mountain.

Gui Boratto - Chromophobia

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/l/liverpool/7514280.stm He's gone to Blackpool. I guess the Grampian Eye just doesn't cut the mustard

I think he was at university up here.

Cripes DM!

One of my mates reckoned that the only explanation for the number of shots he sent over the bar was that he had spoons for feet. Terrible terrible player.

Got the Fleet Foxes album last week - top stuff.

Heh. Just did a search for free agents aged 24+ and Alan Maybury was 4th on the list, pictured in a Dons top no less!

5 minutes well spent while I was having a coffee just now

Miller for me, although Seve also worthy.

The interweb tells me "yes".

Couldn't agree more. Hughes wasn't exactly an unknown quantity in Scotland and if I can look in a newspaper and see that Chris Porter was scoring goals for fun in League 1 last season then surely someone at the club must be capable of seeing the same information and saying "worth a look?". The whole scouting network seems to be shambolic (to say the least), but what do we expect from a club that signs youth players based on their physical size at age 14 instead of their ability?
