El Padre™

I've heard the DG song at every single game this season. Challenged a young lad about it at the Dundee game by asking him "how fucking funny it would be if it was his sister that Goodwillie was accused of raping". He didn't much like that thought and put a lid on it straight away. The rest of his infantile wee pals continued though.

We seem to have a new generation of young arseholes coming through and it's our job to police them, and make sure they know the difference between having a laugh and just being downright cunts. 

Who's Mark McGhee?

So what have I missed since I've been away? 

Why hello there!

Anyone seen the remake of OldBoy yet?

Its fucking tripe. Sharlto Copey may very well be the worst actor I have ever witnessed. If you're thinking about it, don't bother, just watch the original again and remind yourself what a cinematic masterpiece looks like.  If the rest of The Vengeance Trilogy gets tarnished like this I will fucking explode. 

Will Smith is an amazing actor. True story.

Aberdeen-Dundee Derby, the traditional NE derby before United came on to the scene in the 70s/80s

Wow. That's fucking lame. 

The Dundee Derby? Whit? 

Good mate of mine works in there, top boozer.

I saw Bon Iver last week. Holy shit what a live show, immense! 

Saw "Argo" and "Rust and Bone" last week. Fantastic films, especially "Rust and Bone". Well worth getting along to see. 

Anyone know what the deal is with this? Dynamo Berlin, Aberdeen and GAIS casuals all teaming up together. Are they going to be making regular appearances to shame our club??

Have you been to many games Mizer?

FFS. This place has changed. Dwarf sex jokes going un-noticed! Pffft.

Fucking amazing. So for the next five home games there is one Saturday 3pm kick off FFS.

Saturday's are for shoe shopping and meeting the girls for lunch. Don't be a bufty.

Personally I'd love to give it to Ellie Simmonds.

I'm very tense

You don't want to go because either (a) you can't afford it or (b) you aren't being entertained. Not sure what else I'm missing?

I can accept that taken in isolation, it appears to be a small over-reaction, I alluded as much to it in my response to Padre to be fair.

 

Padre, you know that I think you're a top bloke but on this occasion you've made this personal and divisive so I wont let it go by.

 

Have you ever been somewhere and thought, "this is fucking shite, I've paid £x for the privelige, I'd much rather be somewhere else?"  If you haven't, you're either a liar or have lived a very sheltered life.  So this is where I'm coming from, I'm choosing to pay £23 to go to a game, see no goals, see no victory, see no satisfaction (and it is for me to decide what satisfies me, not anyone else) at the expense of spending time with my daughter, or doing something more productive than "please" myself at a football match.  This is the "attitude" of so many guys who have decided to do other things with their Saturday afternoons over the past 15 years of underachievement at AFC.  Not ridiculous and not pathetic.  Not even close. Not even on the same planet.  When you (and that is the collective "you" before anyone turns into a whiny bitch) grow up, you see football, especially shite football, isn't that important in the grand scale of life.

 

Look at the crowd on Saturday.  Is every fan who decided not to attend in the wrong in your opinion?  Or is it just me who's wrong, because I've chosen to post it here?  You've used the sentiment of luck when referring to AFC's profligacy in front of goal.  I'll tell you what's lucky, or maybe more accurate, miraculous, is that 9,200 fans are still loyal enough to turn up at a club that has let them down time and time again over a prolonged period of time.  I have always said that I do not criticise anyone who chooses not to go to a game for whatever reason, why waste the energy?  So, what makes you the authority to suggest that the club wont miss my money?  By that logic, if the club doesn't miss my money, then they wont miss the money of the other 11,000 empty seats every week.  In which case, the irony is, you are "riled", or maybe more pertinently given your posts on the subject over the past few years, you've a chip on your shoulder about something that, in your opinion, the club isn't bothered about.  So why get your knickers in a twist about it?  Why waste your breath?  What is it that riles you so much?  Completely contradictory I'd say, or is there something else?

 

Being apathetic about results in a performance related industry definitely isn't helpful either.  Which is it to be?

 

In which case the mantra "be careful what you wish for" has never been so relevant.  It's up to us all as individuals what constitutes entertainment or maybe more accurately, satisfaction and for me this is results. Results come first, performances second.

 

As I've said, I am pleased that we've played well, and there are things to be positive about, but I'd rather we were scoring goals and getting results. I have no problem whatsoever with anyone disagreeing with me if they want to debate it fairly and respectfully rather than judgementally and divisively.  We can't all be the same otherwise it'd be pretty boring, but we all want the same for AFC and that is for us to be successful.  If they can be successful without my £23 for a few weeks, nobody will be happier about it than me.

 

Stand Free.

I'm loving the fact that you've managed to equate ejaculating into a woman and maturity as being things that go hand in hand. I go to games to get away from grown up life not because I'm not a grown up. Seriously, if your life has changed and you can't afford to go then don't, but to complain about the team right now is bollocks. They're playing out their skins at the moment and the goals are on their way. If you want entertainment watch the EPL, you'll only get that once in a blue moon in the SPL. It's about having a passion for the game and not some desire to be entertained as if you're watching the latest cinema blockbuster.

433 and 451 are basically the same formation. Not worth debating at all!

we've been clearly setting up in a 4-3-3 all season, you'd know that if you went...

 

yes its pish were not scoring but at the same time were absolutely battering teams, as soon as we score someone is going to get a doing.

 

its pathetic that people are complaining about our performances when we are dominating games, attacking football is what people have wanted for years... its only a matter of time until we start scoring.

100 percent correct.

Fairweather!

Meanwhile back in the real world, with far more important things to be thinking about than football I'm not really minded to take much notice of such sweeping statements other than to say that it's disappointed me that you would disrespect the thinking behind it. As a football fan i'm pretty passionate as you well know and the glaring inaccuracy of your comment is as over-reactionary as my own post-match state of mind, which seems to have completely gone over your head. Now you've made it personal, you've also made it divisive.

 

I cannot be criticized for being hacked off that my team isn't scoring. That's just completely fucked up. Yes, there are things to be positive about but acceptance of our impotence is not in my nature at all.

 

My final word on it - and it really is nae other cunt's business, but seeing as the issue has been brought up - with a child due in 3wks, one salary coming in and limited free time on weekends, no reasonably minded person would consider that my not being entertained and choosing to step back for a while is representative of a  but feel free to stereotype all you like. No apology needed, your assumed embarrassment is enough. 

Stand free

Embarrassment? Hardly. You made a statement that sums up the attitude of many in Aberdeen and I'm telling you I thinks it's shite. I don't know your personal situation right now (congrats though) but you know fine well that attitude riles me majorly. This isn't a time for any fan to be humming and hawing about entertainment. We're on the verge of something good at the moment and patience is required from everyone while we get there. Throwing around the sentiment of "if X doesn't happen then I won't do Y and Z" is entirely unhelpful and just absolute bullshit. If you can't afford it don't come, but don't make the team your excuse for not attending.

Hebrew the shorts are totally shit, I'm surprised you didn't get in about that earlier!

It's just fucking shite. We can play like Brazil all we fucking like but putting the ball in the net is what this is all about. No more of my money will go across the turnstile until we start scoring goals. I'm really, really fed up with AFC.

And therein lies the problem with our fair-fucking-weather support. Absolutely piss poor attitude and I don't think your money will be missed.

This happened about two weeks ago I thought? A true don and gave us some great times. All the best Dazzler!

Keep in mind that Vernon could have had a hat trick last week had it not been for a shit linesman. His second was certainly not offside and his third was blocked by a handball.
