  1. Dunno if this is real, but it made me lol
  2. Ace Frehley, guitarist for KISS
  3. You could maybe say 3rd, if you count Dodds' brief stint as co-manager alongside Barry and McCann
  4. Lol, Rohl has bowed out of the running. Beeb suggesting Muscat now "leads the race" to become Rangers' new manager. I thought a "race" had to have at least two competitors. So far, all I've seen is people take a very public stage to say "nah, no thanks"
  5. Something ... or someone i just spotted in that photo located bottom right. Okay I'll start it off then. "Deawy deawy me. This is tewwible. Absowute dwoss"
  6. EE has a video claiming Karlsson is the most gifted player in red since Hans Gilhaus. Got me thinking, what other performances absolutely stood out for you over the years? I've only really been actively following the Dons since about 1990, so was too young and too naive to remember the Fergie days first-hand. So for me, it would have to be Craig Hignett was absolutely immense in the 3-2 win over Celtic in 1998. And I'm actually torn between Eoin Jess and Paul Bernard in the Coca-Cola Cup Semifinal in '95. Bernard absolutely controlled the middle of the park, which allowed Jess the time and space to take the absolute piss out of Gascoigne
  7. McInnes' first and second signings would be Marley Watkins and Matty Kennedy. What's Ash Taylor up to these days?
  8. I lived in Edinburgh for 8 years, and in that time grew to absolutely detest the Jambos and their fans. Cocky cunts who, time after time, sing Hun songs when they're 8 pints deep. Hibs fans at least support their team through thick and thin, and can take a bit of banter. I'd be alright with Hibs being top right now, but fkn hate Hearts being there.
  9. Some quotes from fans on one of the Beeb's online articles saying it should be either Dyche, Gerrard or Barry's Boys. I have no prior knowledge of Dyche. Gerrard did well with them in the 1 season he was there, but how much of that was new-manager-itis coupled with Warburton putting together a decent squad previously and not really getting a tune out of them? Which takes us to Barry's Boys - Ferguson, Dodds & McCann. 15 games in charge with a 40% win ratio - they really did have a shockingly shite team. They beat us all 3 times we met them in 2025, but then so did everyone. I'm just gutted we didn't get to play Rangers before they binned Martin - we seem to have a knack of getting Hun Bosses fired recently!
  10. Give him access to the company comb
  11. Robson got access to the company hairgel and comb when he was boss
  12. I dunno what it takes. On paper VAR was supposed to expose the shit decisions made by our completely inept national referees. But we are probably now worse off by way of football's spectacle ne being ruined in the way that so many "goal celebrations" are now cut short by reviews. I can only go by what I have seen in NZ which is a heavy rugby nation that is also going thru the same predicament. At least football doesn't go back 7, 8 or 9 phases to find a reason to discount a game changing moment. But in an effort to make football more entertaining and instantly appealing, maybe we need to introduce the concept from Rugby League of 2 refs on the field - both can overrule each other, and ultimately it goes to VAR in the extreme chance of a stalemate in decisions?
  13. See, McGhee ... I always thought the 80s version of him looked like Bobby Brown from Karate Kid. And I was alright with that
  14. Hate it. I don't remember this being a thing 10 or 20 years ago. My theory here is that "peepill" are happy to boo, but they boo because social media tells them to, rather than a legitimate reason for it. If true, this is not unique to Aberdeen Football Club
  15. Yes this. I have no qualms about a player being booed off when they have earned it. But booing on? Utter shithousery! As with all teams, we have our own share of absolute guttural cretins in the stands - and moreso online
  16. PS gonna get absolute pelters for this topic. Bring it ...
  17. Im pretty sure this topic has never been raised before. Happy to be merged if so. And for the Begbie record, I mean this in a purely heterosexual manner. We have a knack of making managers look aesthetically more pleasing than when they arrived. I mean, Roy Aitken, Alex Miller, Ebbe and co are definitely discounted here. But I must admit that in the McInness era, there were quite a number of Dandies who sported stylish beards and rakebacks. As shit as Goodwin was, he definitely upped his silver-fox rakeback look when he was with us. And now Thelin. Even when he appears in press photos sneering at the Red Army, he is sporting a stylish gel look with a comb back and a well kept beard. Is this part of what distinguishes a "top 3 team manager" look vs "other ranked team manager" look?
  18. My school PE teacher taught us that football was a contact sport, and there was never anything wrong with a good, firm, assertive shoulder barge
  19. They always said the league needed someone to split the OF. Never knew it'd be 9 teams ... and unfortunately none of them would be us. I just hope their latest Euro result doesn't spell the end of Martin, as he is our only hope of a win at this stage.
  20. I am still holding out for a turnaround game. And who's to say this isn't Motherwell 5-7 Dons
  21. I should've trusted my own not-entirely-shit-judgment. It wasn't FB .. it was here on the Arabs discussion
  22. TBH it was a FB comment. I should know better. But I'd read it more than once, and from different sources. But again, only FB .... must do better
  23. I am somewhat surprised to read today's headlines and realise Jimmy is still in the hotseat. I still think he needs to go, he has clearly lost the dressing room, particularly our best player in Clarkson. The squad needs Peter to take charge for a while and settle into standard tactics, as clearly the squad is horseshit at playing within JT's modern tactics
  24. I CBF watching any more of this. Absolute dogshit management from Thelin. If Big Dave doesn't send him packing after this, then he is a coward
  25. We are basically title contenders right now
