Had been tempted to put a tumbleweed meme…

Fuck, hadn't realised that. That is sad news (him passing, not your meeting him). Always came across well and was a proper citeh fan.

From the P&J. Everyone back in full training – including Kristers Tobers Aberdeen centre-back Kristers Tobers, centre behind Topi Keskinen and Kevin Nisbet, at training on Friday. Image: SNS. 2pm: Dons manager Thelin says everyone in his squad, including Latvia centre-back Kristers Tobers, is now fit.. “Some players needs some minutes in the training pitch to get ready for games,” Thelin adds, though, revealing: “We are probably going to add some friendly games also to get everybody in game-shape. “But even Tobers (is back)… everybody is in full training – they just need some time to be quick and sharp enough.” ‘To get the time, you also have to win during the time’ – Thelin says before Aberdeen v Livingston 1.56pm: On to Saturday’s fixture against Livingston, and Thelin says he is fully aware the Red Army are demanding a win of his side. “As a manager you know that. We have to have the long(-term) vision in our head, but results have to come also.” Thelin said. “We’ve had a tough start to the season, but we play at home and we have to turn things around and start winning games. “To get the time, you also have to win during the time. “They (Livi) have done well. They’re a good team, but I think and I believe we have taken a step now. “With these new signings and some adjustments, I think we can do a good performance now and start winning games.”

Out of interest, because I’ve had a mental week with work and not paid any attention to the news this week: 1) who the fuck is this cunt Charlie kirk? 2) Why should I or anyone care? 3) as far as I can see, he loved guns, said people are sacrificial and got shot by one, poetic no? These are genuine questions, I know very little about this person.

I liked what I heard, he sounds very driven and a winner, which you’d expect given his career trajectory. I’m really excited and hope it works out for both parties. Certainly a player that has a very high ceiling on paper.

I don’t think we’ll see much of kjartan anytime soon. JT said he pretty had to bide his time so with Nilsen “fit”, I don’t think he’ll be making an appearance for the first time, or at least any notable minutes, anytime soon.

Livi have proved to be stuffy as expected, so again, what should be an easy game won’t be. Interesting to see what changes given the signings we’ve made, although I’d expect karlsson and Armstrong will be a while away. Nisbet should be fit and should start. We can’t afford to fuck about with Yengi at all. I’d expect Milanovic to miss out having travelled back from NZ this week. You’d think we might even get a glimpse of Gyamfi, at least for the last 20 mins or something. out bed bed family time 1-1, Nisbet.

Really should have taken a few of those chances that were created. Can’t help but think if a proper striker had been in those positions the scoreline would be completely different.

Christ, not sure what happened there

Levy steps down after 24 years at the top at Spurs. Huge sigh of relief I’m sure from a lot of spurs fans.

Agreed, there was a risk to introducing them last season when we just kept losing. Don’t agree with it because you learn a lot in adversity but the fans have never been patient and it’s always been biased against local. He’s gone to their academy, will be interesting if he ever makes it into a serious league or will be stuck in league 1 or 2.

Also describing Hibs as a stuffy shitehouse of a team pot, kettle, black im sad to see sokler leave. As much as I knew it wouldn’t happen, Yengi should have been the one to go out on loan. Definitely had his chances and was never able to step up properly, big shame his career with us ends like this.

I love how he went from saying that the Tims let a mediocre dons team win the cup, but yet goes onto praise Mcgrath, a player who arrived from us in the summer proper tears. GIRUT

Desperately trying not to get too excited but my perspective has changed completely over the last 32 hours. These are the players we needed and in all honesty (karlsson aside) I expected us to sign after cormacks big spiel post final. Fantastic stuff. Karlsson (on paper) is next level, still can’t believe we’ve landed him. The project players should now make sense, and hopefully have the right characters to learn from. I did find it interesting that Thelin said that Nisbet helps us provide an identity for the team. He’s not wrong.

What a bizarre window! Welcome aboard, brings a helluva lot of experience. Is he match fit?
