  1. Put some suggestions up and we'll consider them
  2. Cannae beat Big Dunc's celebrations though. "The Sniper Rifle" pose was always the cheesiest and best, hehe
  3. We're LONG overdue knocking a cricket-score past someone. It would be sweet as fuck if we could really do those manky huns by a decent amount of goals so that they've got absolutely fuckall comeback in the papers. I mean, we beat Celtic 4-2 and had a disallowed goal and a disallowed penalty. Yet STILL they whinge about a "dodgy" goal decision. We need to royally trash the currant buns so that the weejia have absolutely no choice but to write something good about us. Either that or devote a half-column towards us 7 pages in from the back of the paper ... just next to the Classified Ads.
  4. Coincides with him moving Ra Shellick-barrawaybu. They probably said "we'll hire you. But you've got to get rid of the sense of humour. It's not the way we do things around here. We prefer to be more .... how can I put this .... paranoid. Can you do paranoid, Gordon?"
  5. Hard to think that Boydkpen was very very close to signing with us before his big move to the hunnery.
  6. So, we're pretty much riding high for the first January since forever. The only stain on our immaculate shirt is Hamilton. Jimmy is being linked with relatively big jobs down south and overseas (the Utrecht job, especially, would interest him, what with his love for everything Dutch). Mackie's being linked with a move. Miller's being linked with a move. Should we cash in? With the debt down to 6million-ish, I reckon now is as good a time as any to really cash in. Let's face it, Aberdeen will not progress whilst this horrible noose of debt is hanging around our necks. Having a club paying hefty bucks for JC and Lee Miller (both have about two-and-a-half years left on their respective contracts) could probably clean our financial slate and then some. Part of me wants to sell them to the highest bidder and get rid of the debt. Why? Because I still have these horrible nightmares about the ridiculous-money bids that were being talked about when Mackie, McNaughton, McGuire and Anderson were breaking through. And what did we get for them lads? Next to nothing, considering their talent (well, Anderson and McNaughton anyway). I don't want us sitting in a relegation dog-fight in two years time, still fielding those players who will invariably decide to want away at the end of their contract and us collect 75k for them. I'd rather collect the megabucks NOW whilst they're hot property. However, part of me doesn't want them to go. That part of me wants the team to stay together, along with the manager and us clear the debt the other way ... with success on the pitch and regular runs in Europe. What say you? Do we sell now and make the most of the players' values whilst they're hot property? Or do we hold onto them, running the risk that they could either take us intae Europe again, or could turn out to be absolutely Derek Whyte and stumble to a top-six finish and leave for nowt at the end of the 2010/11 season?
  7. Yeah bets are at 16/1 for JC getting the job. He's something like fourth-top odds.
  8. I didn't realise Murray could walk
  9. It takes a wonderful piece of skill to get the ball to go OVER the bar from one yard out.
  10. 52 years since we last failed to take any points from matches against Rangers during a season (according to Archie McPherson anyway!). Dunno what the stats are versus Celtic. Would be nice, and I'd much rather two home ties against the Old Firm than one away or both away. Pittodrie shows its true colours against these two!
  11. Sadly we all know how right you are, BigAl
  12. It's like deja vu ... only last time the player's name was Scott Booth. Maybe Smith's got one leg longer than the other like Booth does
  13. If he's gonna leave us, now is the time to sell him when title-chasing clubs need a proven goalscorer and ours is bagging them left right and centre, not to mention picking up the Player Of The Month award for last month. Now's as good a time as any to sell him for 6million.
  14. Didn't you get my cool fiver? I posted it on Christmas Day. I addressed it to: Superstar Tradesman c/o United Kingdom Didn't you get it?? You got Paypal?
  15. Fuck! That's a blockbuster of a match to showcase Scottish Fitba. Two fantastic, entertaining teams with charismatic managers from Scotland's stunning and romantic backdrop of Kilmarnock. It's a dead-cert to be a full-house at Rugby Park yet again as the passionate home fans attempt to overcome their gigantic opposition.
  16. Have East Fife got 800 fans?
  17. What oil firm head offices in Aberdeen are gonna be open at 4.45 on a Saturday afternoon? And what is the Director Of Football gonna be saying to them? "Got any half decent footballers working for you?"
  18. All the painted faces are normally in the Merkland. From the back of the Y, there might as well not be a Merkland!

  20. Arguably the easiest point to agree with, considering ten years ago was probably Paul Heggarty's short-lived reign as Dons manager. Who did he sign? Oh yes, Jamie McAllister and David Lilley!
  21. Being honest, he's ummed and ahhed about previous renewals too. When he's on-form, he's nothing short of spectacular. But we'd have to consider that he's probably passed his best now and would seriously consider a big-money move down south as being his last opportunity to further his professional football career. I reckon he's gone
