    He would have loved the fact they went to 5 sets.

    Agreed, sounds like Raonic is knackared rather than injured. Andy does well with 5 setters. His fitness levels are top notch.

    Listening on 5live, sounds intense! Just levelled it 1-1. Won the second set 7-5.
  4. Saw that the other day, Rocket. Terrible and embarrassing state of affairs that Spiers has been hung out to dry by his editor. Pathetic. There is only one thing left for him to do is expose who it is.

    Mental how fast his serve is!
  6. Flood risk assessment is a standard procedure in an area with water / flood risk area. I'm not aware of where they are but I'd imagine that would be the reason why. Has gone awfuly quiet one that front.
  7. Doesn't detract from the fact that it is still a terrible show. Didn't they try to follow the motd2 format a while back?
  8. It's an awful show which epitomises what's wrong with Scottish football. Always favourable to the bigoted two when possible and terrible analysis. I know some of it comes down to budget but the graphics, studio, presenters all make it feel Mickley mouse. You'd forgive it if the content was good but it's not.
  9. With Brown in goals, you'll probably be right, but I don't think Celtic will fancy playing on our pitch at the moment.
  10. I would put that down to the manager though, who seems completely reluctant to turn to the bench, and when he does, it's either too late or a bizarre substitution. Here's BTMin Aberdeen's view (first 10 mins) with Dolly digital interview: https://soundcloud.com/bytheminsport/btm-aberdeen-podcast-28-dolly-digital
  11. A week away yet (seems like an eternity) and hopefully we'll have a couple of new faces in by then too. Club has said that over 16,500 tickets have been sold so far. Hopefully make for a cracking atmosphere! Game is also live on Sky Sports 1 for those further afield
  12. It's fair enough. I think the problem is that Pawlett set such high standards and has since failed to live up to them imo. Every time i've seen Smith come on he's looked lively and exciting, I get your point, but certainly think he has something to offer. The point re: DM not using him, not sure that's fair given that DM doesn't really give subs much of a chance, let alone youth.
  13. Would be a good move for him but i'd be very disappointed if he did go. He should be playing way head of Pawlett and DG.
  14. Christ, hard to pick anyone from that line-up..... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/35407802
  15. Well, all gone through now: https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/aberdeen-fc/dons-defender-quinn-rejoins-ross-county1/
  16. Was this what DM was referring to as freeing up wages?! I'm still saddened by this.

  18. Signed some aussie keeper (Aaron Lennox) for the u-20's: https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/fp/aberdeen-fc/dons-sign-aussie-international-keeper-for-u20s-squad/

    Well done Johanna Konta, came from a set down to win 4-6, 6-4 and 8-6. First British woman to reach the last eight since 1983!
  20. Dons Supporters Trust have set up a survey regarding this: https://donssupporterstogether.typeform.com/to/VwEezA
  21. I guess it will ask the question of where Jack fits in to our team as well. I've long thought that him and McLean aren't the most logical pairing. Glad to see a young lad come in and handle the pressure of the first team. Hopefully it gives others a bit of confidence that they can do the same. Think you're right about Goodwillie BB, despite DG not really doing anything wrong, he's not scoring or looking like he's going to score a goal any time soon.
  22. Norwich game has been mental. Liverpool were 3-1 down and currently 4-3 up now. Some decent finishes. good for my fantasy team but could do with Liverpool drawing
  23. 1-0, rooney
