By "Ed" do you mean the Stand Free ed, or do you mean me? If you mean me, then don't worry. I've propped up a few bars in Aberdeen with Red Avenger in the past, as well as stank out a few supporters club busses with him too, haha

I believe this was Leon Mike Mike Mike's first game for us. Almost scored with his first touch. But then DID score with his second touch. And that was the last bit of effort we got from him

:clap: Finally! Someone speaks sense! If it's good enough for Man Utd, the Gothenburg Greats and even (spit) the 1966 England World Cup team, then why is 4-4-2 not good enough for us? Why was JC and now MM so hell-bent on getting us to play a system that our players just don't like playing? These players have been brought up playing 4-4-2. It's a British institution, is a proven successful formation and ... more to the point ... it's the ONLY formation our players are actually comfortable playing in. Aberdeen don't win games playing 3-5-2, 4-3-3, 4-5-1, 3-1-4-1-1, 1-1-9 or whatever systems we've seen over the past few years. Stick to what these players know, and they'll maybe produce the goods!

What are the bets Aluko is engineering a move away from the Dons. What a fuckin shambles, McGhee. Losing control of yer own players four games into the new season!

I can alter this. Might be a few days before I can get around to altering it though, as I've got heaps on this weekend and next week. But I'll get around to it! That's something that I've been working on for a couple of weeks now. Don't reckon it'll be fixed for another few weeks, but it WILL be fixed, as it's something I use regularly too.

Really can't stand those iPhones. I especially hate it when people at my work send emails and it gets stamped "sent from my iphone" at the bottom. So a few of us anti-white-computer racists at work decided to change our email signatures to "sent from my IBM-compatible PC".

i'm entrusting Mackie to get our 0.3157894736842105263157894736842 goal this week.

Wash your mouth out, min!

I can easily write a piece of html script to call up a javascript, say 5 seconds after the page opens, that runs some malware on the destination PC. Giving any and every DonsTalk member the ability to spread viruses, malware or spyware is something I'm not prepared to do.

Ah, I've just seen what you mean in the "Bring A Buddy" thread. No version of DonsTalk has ever allowed HTML to be incorporated in posts. Allowing full html is just too risky, and those with the right html coding knowledge can embed viruses, malware and spyware within html that yer everyday DonsTalker wouldn't have a clue even existed ... until their computer becomes infected.

Explain? What's the problem you are having?

I tried my best to watch the game on the only video stream I could find. The clarity was excellent, but the streaming speed was bloody aweful and the screen thus froze every 8 or 9 seconds. I blame Mackie and Miller and 4-3-3. Pawlett was a joy to watch, though. Has the SPL ever seen so many draws on a match weekend? I think Hamilton were the only team to notch up a win this weekend. Oh how it joyed me to see that score against the "total football" side of Hibernian.

Yes. But in order to upgrade the site to the new software version, I had to disable almost all the little tools, addons and features moments before upgrading. After upgrading the site I reenabled most of the tools, but despite testing these successfully on the test-site, it's only once the site is in use by you guys that the issues are starting to appear. For example, there's heaps of features that I don't use on a regular basis (some not at all!) that I know some of you do use. So testing the new software was only really achievable by getting you guys to point out any problems you're having.

or Ebbe with the Laudrup brothers Or Pele and ... err ... Dennis Wyness

Boooooo! Ban this optimist!

Ace-ik? Would ye go as far as to say it's doss-ik? Being honest, I actually tested the newer software out considerably on a test version of DonsTalk that I have set up on a different server and everything works fine from my testing. But the things that are cropping up are things I simply wasn't able to test on my own, so decided to launch the new software on the running version of DonsTalk and iron out any issues as you guys find them.

I heard God once asked Willie Miller for a fiver

Welcome aboard the good ship Pittodrie, Colin. Let's face it, you were always going to be part of McGhee's management team at Pittodrie. The notion of pinching Hans Segers from PSV was all just a very poorly devised smokescreen so that the management could say "of course we're not going for Meldrum ... although he'd be nice to have onboard". Let's hope you've got a lot more than just keeper-coaching qualities, cos although he didn't have much else in his bag of tricks, Auld Bandy made Preece and Langfield into respectable keepers!

I'm with slowclap on this one. Get Trump to GIFT the club £10million and we'll say "build a fuckin bypass through here if you like, ya toupe-wearin chav." On the point of wearing toupes, maybe Trump could borrow Milne's expertise in wig-wam-wearing exploits. Let's see ... whose is worst?

Whilst I don't wanna try making excuses for this sort of action ... The Record is saying the reported incidents have happened in the opening three games of the season. Erm, excuse me but we've not played in Dundee yet.

Not even Hearts? Surely we can make an exception to your argument, FJ!

Oh I dunno. You know how much those Hibees love their heroin

I say fuck them. If a club wants to spend more that it makes on wages, and they then go to the wall with the administrators, they deserve everything they get. Clubs like Aberdeen fail to sign players all the time because of ridiculous wage demands from the players. Why should idiots like Hearts get away with this sort of crap? Nothing would make me laugh more than seeing Hearts go to the wall because their financial backers have pulled out and they can't afford to pay wages. I think the onus should be on the clubs to watch their own spending, not the governing bodies.

are the games too big now? They look fine on my screen, but then mine is a 22" widescreen. I can reduce the size of all games if you like. Send me a screenshot of how big they are on your screen and I'll adjust accordingly ... reekie_red at hotmail.com

Hate to say it, but those two are probably our most profitable assets at the moment. Depending on how they go in the first half of this season, I wouldn't put it past us selling the pair of them for a very tidy profit in January. Anyone know what sort of contracts they're both on?
