Either way we need a LB. Willie is in the Depressing Journal saying we need to get Scales back. Hmmmm, was he that good, or did Big Angus and Pollock make him look better than he actually was?

Thanks for clarifying, Tyrant. Has been a question on my mind for 30+ years

Those Puma ones were shit quality. The Living Design and Atlantic Telecom sponsor graphics peeled off mine within 2 years. My white Team Recruitment top from the Nike days is still immaculate condition. Are Squares and Discos crisps?

The new look. Will take me a moment to get used to it. Viewing on a phone, I think it looks a bit cluttered

One of those pens was a total cheat. Jim Leighton outpsyched Craig Burley by screaming at him from his goal-line. Burley's face completely lacked conviction and Bandy Jim saved the pen. Loved that game

Hah Jet. What a highly disappointing signing. Would much rather Jet from Gladiators

If someone told me 2000 that in the 2020s the Serie A would be plundering the Scottish Premier on a regular basis, i'd laugh my face off

Without consulting Google, it seems to me we always play Celtic in either our first home game or their first home game. I can't remember us getting the better of them in the opener either, other than Hignetts first home game

I've seen the first 3 episodes. First 2 were particularly good

DT minibuses rule. A bunch of us were on the Beach End Reds minibus to Dens on boxing day 2002. Bloody carnage

Cheers. Saves me Googling it which inevitably leads me down rabbit-holes and wondering 2 hours later why I went onto Google in the first place

I'm sure a hunt on Google could tell me, but how come Spain have only played 2 games so far?

Be able to spot you as youd be the only person in Wellington not layered up with wooly hats and thermals Never thought I'd head from NZ to Scotland for a holiday in the hope of getting a tan

We don't usually get a new home AND away kit in the same season. But club seems to indicate on FB that a new home kit is coming. A couple of Adidas red kits have been released so far, notably Nottingham Forest and Benfica. Both quite different designs, I think I would prefer the Nottingham Forest one out of those two designs ...

It brings back memories of the Northsound away strip. I'm not convinced

Scunthorpe - one of three teams in UK leagues to have rude words in their name, the others being Arsenal and Fuckin Rangers

The Sokler deal must be ahead of Duk heading out, presumably to Torino. The Doohan link must be ahead of Lewis heading out ... presumably to Killie If both are true, I've never heard of us signing replacements BEFORE the OG's leave

My Aussie mate said "sure fire, Scotland must qualify for both now". Obviously he has never followed scotland before

I remember that close-season. I was working in California at the time on one of those Camp America gigs. the local library got copies of Scotland On Sunday a couple of days late, and me and my mate were rubbing our hands with glee at the thought of Jess being back, Kiriakov (the guy who once played Gazza off the park), Ricky Gillies (the nation's most promising youngster) all playing for us. Oh how that optimism didn't last

All the papers are running with a "heres a list of Aberdeens most expensive signings", which makes me wonder just how much we paid Liverpool for him.

Some sources saying Clarkson is coming back to us instead of Reading Although their source is the Record https://the72.co.uk/2023/06/13/aberdeen-agree-deal-to-sign-reading-transfer-target/

Oh you had me til the end. I am one of the few who actually liked Ebbe. I could see the vision he had, the Brondby Blueprint looked to be just what we needed. Plus he was a bloody good laugh when he did his supporters club roadshows

Agreed. I got to most games (home and away) between 1999 and 2003. I was in my early 20s, single, earning a full time wage, my disposable income was off the charts. Fast-forward 20 years, I live on the other side of the world, have teenage kids, and would only consider travelling for a cup final TBH. I have a RedTV subscription and whilst I won't normally get up in the middle of the night to watch a run of the mill league match against St J, I do get up and watch the bigger games or ones that have more on the line, such as the last St Mirren game. So my circumstances mean I hardly go to any games, and I watch far fewer than I would've if timezones were better. But I consider myself to be just as much a Dons fan now as I was when I was going to most games 20 years ago

I was sure in the early 90s when it was us and Motherwell for 2nd place (back when Celtic were a mistable mess under Tommy Burns). Tommy Coyne was up there each year as the leagues top scorer. but upon checking Google it looks like Owen Coyle joined them late 90s. Coyne and Coyle were definitely a decent partnership at motherwell tho

Literally anyone can be a celtix manager and win the league with the resources available to them. Its literally like putting aberdeen in an amateur league, but aberdern get to spend the same money as they do today. Which makes me wonder just how shit John Barnes really was
