  1. Completely agree. Absolutely devastated by the recent catastrophic slump. Our league position is slightly embarrassing given where we were. Hearts, a promoted team, who we have beaten are now above us despite being 9 points ahead of them. I do agree with weegie red that the team need to forget about others around them and focus on themselves. Theyre not performing to anywhere near they can, confidence is provably a big part of it but it is now down to the management to arrest this and pick the players up. We also need to start taking our chances. We could have easily taken something from that game, but our profligacy in front of goal and a moment of outstanding stupidity cost us dearly. That was a shit Celtic side and we made it so fucking easy for them.
  2. Used to like Taylor as I thought after his more than shaky start he'd seemed to put that behind him. But no. Saturday was absolutely awful. There are no excuses for that level of stupidity. McInnes needs to drop him.
  3. Thank fuck the convicts got done! Great game, they made a contest of it but I was very pleased to see the all blacks triumph. I still lol at England
  4. Ambrose on, we need to get 3 quick goals.
  5. Well, Taylors suicidal tackle which he didn't need to make. Great. 3-0 now. Cunts.
  6. Shane, Rooney had the ball in the net but ruled out for offside, correct decision right enough. Playing better on the counter after a dodgy start. Considine actually having a good game against the tims and has to go off injured. Quinn on.
  7. Not necessarily the line up I'd have gone for but COYR
  8. Fair enough team, but a bit slow in midfield, especially having both rooney and Goodwillie, but does allow for something different to come off the bench. I really do want to see Smith coming on again, he was growing into the team before he seemed to stop playing. Not long to go now! I hope it's not over by half time
  9. Welcome to London
  10. I'm not sure, I thought he got done quite a few times last season. And that was at centre half.
  11. Aye, he's been at left back but not sure he's got the pace for it anymore. The line up above isn't too bad though, tombola allowing.
  12. Anyone watch the Class of 92 show about them buying up Salford City last night? Quite interesting, although I can completely see why some fans would be pissed off about it.
  13. I'm surprised nothing has been formally leaked. Can't seem to find anything on it.
  14. Was 1700 but think the club announced there were a few others available earlier this week. So what you're saying is, we're back to needing a left back?
  15. Oh I completely agree, I was amazed more wasn't said about why it had happened. Pointless announcement.
  16. I see police have charged the 16 year old that they had in custody.
  17. A match, a month ago I wouldn't have been concerned about at all, but since then have every reason to be concerned about which team turn up. On our day, we've shown we can beat Celtic, no bother, but that team only started to appear for 20 mins during the Motherwell game. We really need the team to turn up for the full 90, McInnes to play our best side and bring on the right substitutions in this one. We've got a packed out allocation as is usual for this fixture and the team know they'll have their backing. If none of the above happened, I fear the worst. It will be down to Ward to keep the score respectable. In / Out: Out Pre matcher: Sorting out my Halloween costume Match: Flat watching the game on TV Post matcher: Flat, hopefully seeing the convicts getting humiliated and their egos smashed. Prediction: Dhims 2 - Dons 2, Shinnie Ward Logan / Quinn / Considine / Shinnie McGinn / Jack / Flood / Hayes McLean Rooney Not particularly happy about putting Flood in but Pawlett and McLean don't appear to be able to play together. I'd also much prefer Shinnie at Left back because I do not rate Considine there. Recent games showed he had defaulted back to his bomb scare self and playing suicidal back passes and cross field passes (yes i'm aware of what he did last season). At least if Quinn is playing he might be able to mop up some of Floods inevitable mistakes. I think i'd also like to see Smith get a run out from the bench in this one. COYR, let's get right into these pricks.
  18. I don't buy it for a second either. Both have been equally as tiresome to watch
  19. Man United get knocked out by 'boro at home in the league cup. Didn't watch it, but some of the live texters were complaining the possession game was boring and at least moysey was interesting to watch, even in defeat. It's not the most exciting campaign, reminds me a bit of JC who used to claim he liked teams to play, but never really saw much evidence of it. I'm sure JC is buds with him anyway.
  20. Dhims one up at the pink cowshed. Shame brown isn't playing and can't get injured.
  21. Where was this? Didn't see anything, although I haven't really looked if I'm honest. The timing doesn't surprise me whatsoever. Standard.
  22. Saw that appear on my twitter feed, mental! http://news.stv.tv/north/1331589-schoolboy-killed-after-alleged-stabbing-at-aberdeens-cults-academy/ Waste of a life
  23. There's still time
  24. Would be the most sensible option imo. good player, but a bit of money for him would mean we could get someone adequate to replace him as what's obvious is is that that person isn't currently at the club.
  25. PL has been keeping a close eye on Culjak and it sounded like he's definitely one for the future. Can't say I see enough of the highlights to comment on anyone really.
