You totally missed Dorrington being anywhere near the matchday squad

Dunno if it's the same in all westernised countries. But there's a section of the currently emerging generation of adults in Australasia who seem to ignore social class positioning, there is a growing tendency to ignore discrimination based on your current social class. Possibly the only exemption in this is those brought up with a silver spoon in their mouth, cos they still stuck to their own. Whether this also exists in USA beneath the political comedy gala that the rest of the world gets to see pretty much everyday on TV or not ... I'd love to know.

Queens Park have nothing to lose in this game. I reckon they'll score the opener in the first 20 minutes, then we will take control and go on to win 5-1 Press will still headline with "Dons progress despite scare" Nisbet x2, Gueye, Jensen, Shinnie

So what's the deal with Lewis Carroll? What are the swathes of rich English suitors seeing that we aren't?

Hibs are certainly the most likely for 3rd if they continue their current form. Arabs whilst not playing badly have found results hard to come by. Same goes for us, and our defence is still suspect at crucial moments. Celtic are the only ones in the league that are almost guaranteed their wins, everyone else is very beatable. So between now and end of season, only Hearts are still to play celtic twice. It really is anyone's game for 3rd, and I wouldn't fancy anyone's chances in Europe next year, such is the shite on show this season

TBH i forgot he played for us. If he really wants to see what "dislike" looks like from the Red Army, maybe he should have a chat to Wright and Barron

Would've been easier if Killie hadn't dropped their pants for their bretherin midweek. Still technically possible to get 2nd, but points-wise we go into the Arabs game closer to 12th than 2nd

Imagine if Mexico decided they were gonna reclaim Texas, and the rest of the world told Trump "come back when you're ready to talk about peace"

Millwall reminding the world the absolute cretins that they are at Selhurst Park. Palace won 3-1 against Millwall, but Millwalls keeper Liam Roberts took Palace striker Mateta out with a flying kick to the face. Mateta was out for aaaages and had to be taken to hospital. The FA apparently can't do anything about the Millwall fans chanting "hope he dies" https://youtu.be/OD2mlmqAYPg?si=udOdaKIv65FMMN32

Kinda feels a wee bit like when we nabbed Severin from Hearts cos we could offer him what he wanted ... although it was at a time when Hearts were in financial turmoil. Hibs have just had their debts cleared by Ian Gordon's family,

Have to wonder whether Jimmy opted to rest Mitov whilst he continues his recovery, knowing that this would've been a game where celtic were likely to be quite physical on whoever was in goals for us. A bit disappointed with the score, but not surprised by the result. This was always gonna be a tall ask of a team who were still on an absolutely diabolical run only 3 weeks ago. Just hope this result doesn't do anything to their confidence

I heard it could be Barry Fergus-hun and Neil McCann until the new 49ers deal goes through. That would be fkn hilarious. Collectively they've got a 41% win-rate, but down into the low 30s% when you remove Kelty Hearts. Fergus-hun also filed for bankruptcy a few years ago, so he will be in familiar territory at Ibrox

Apparently it's gonna cost them ~£1.2M to sack him. I thought he was doing a great job

And how the f is that news?

Either way, its a potential banan skin. Queens Park have just beaten the former second tier winners (i would've expected more from such a prestigious club against Scotland's newcomers). Or the potential bananaskin of a rudderless Wales who are in their worst ever world ranking position. It's these sorts of games both Aberdeen and Scotland loves to lose

There's news around that SF 49ers' investment wing is expected to close out a takeover of The Rangers 2012 FC, including all debts owed to John Bennett, by June this year. The deal is expected to be similar to that which saw them takeover Leeds Utd two years ago

What happened? I read that article, but it's not plainly clear what it was that the family were aggrieved about. Was the funeral too focussed on Jimmy's footballing life?

I watched the highlights of the Killie StJ game. They look handy, the lad Wales especially - he peppered shots at goal at every opportunity. And the lad Murray scored an absolute screamer of a free kick that was second only to Keskinen's belter. But they were up against the worst StJ team I've seen in years. I'm cautiously optimistic we can get a result here. Won't be easy, but I'm going for 3-2 win - Gueye, Nisbet, Jensen

Shinnie for me has at most a season left in him. I don't think that warrants captaincy on its own. Anderson was different, as he was still playing to a high standard when he retired. Shinnie is still magic but only in glimpses. I'm of the view the captain needs to be in this order (a) dominant, (b) consistent, (c) experienced, (d) an outfield player, (e) scottish. I'm not too fussed about (e) so long as they have the other 4 traits in spades. I was checking whilst writing this, is Joe Lewis really our only season-long non-Scottish captain? Anthony Stewart was captain for the game and a half it took us to figure out he was rubbish, so I'm not counting him

Cbeebies?

Spurs podcast is questioning why Dorrington has only appeared 4 times and started once. The podcast is suggesting Dorrington is our best defender. https://tothelaneandback.com/2025/02/16/john-wenham-frustrated-with-alfie-dorrington-aberdeen-situation/ Sorry, but from what I've seen and read, Dorrington is just not good enough. Notably the defence weakened when he came on vs Dunfermline. What's the thoughts of you guys who get to see him live in games? Are Spurs fans right to question his lack of game time, or is he just not that good?

Well it's either Scottish quality going down or Irish quality going up. Mind you, we've got a good track record from the Irish players who've played for us

Quite enjoyed Sunstance. After watching and thoroughly enjoying Last Voyage Of The Demeter, which is from one of the chapters of Dracula, me and the missus went to the cinema for first time in donkeys to see the remake of Nosferatu. I absolutely love the OG version, but this remake was gash! Lily-Rose Depp has all the on-screen emotions of a sack of tatties. Tonight, we are gonna watch the remake of All Quiet On The Western Front

I think it's a telling sign of how shit Scottish football is when our first win in 15 games puts us into 3rd place
