  1. Last season, i'd have agreed with you, not so certain this year. Here's hoping they do!
  2. Wigan accept United's offer £200K for McKay. A striker i wouldn't have minded at Pittodrie http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34074171
  3. The way I see it is , we were promised certain things by the chairman, over and over again. What year of the five year plan are we on? Now don't get me wrong, going debt free is massive, words cannot express how impressed I am with that and has certainly bought the board time. But the fact remains, we have no training facilities, we have a stadium which either needs serious investment or replacing. I have no doubts that the club are working in the background, but a wee bit of an update wouldn't go a miss. I'd hope that a feasibility study has already or is in the process of being carried out. Its clear that we are not moving anywhere anytime soon . The support has been galvanised by the performance on the pitch, noe to see it through off it.
  4. Precisely. I want to progress as far as possible with the least amount of effort. Although, I did laugh that you chose all the teams close to Edinburgh
  5. Some decent scores there in the league cups, both north and south of the border. Brilliant result in the chumps league play off, keeps them distracted in Europe but denies them the amount of money they would have had from the Champs league group stages
  6. :rofl:
  7. Haha, thanks Rocket! Thankfully, she knows the score with the Dons, i set that law down straight away
  8. Thanks for the faith ; I know, I'm doomed
  9. 3 points are definitely the most important thing here, although I would like to see a bit of attacking momentum going into the break / pigs game. Out Moving flat Listening to the game whilst trying not to fall out with the mrs putting furniture together! Unpacking 2-0 Dons, McGinn and Rooney
  10. Hearts game (home end) is already a sell out http://www.heartsfc.co.uk/news/4559 Sounds like tickets for Supporters Clubs will be at a premium too!
  11. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/rodney-sneijder-set-rip-up-6316355 Proof, if there ever was any needed that Dundee is a shit hole
  12. I genuinely wonder how much of this is media shit stirring. No-one would be stupid enough to pay that for him, even if I do think United's transfer "policy" if it exists any more is flawed. You must be pleased Ballotelli looks to be on his way out, passed his medical at Milan today.
  13. It is rare, but I definitely agree with Rocket on this one. We are close, we're not talking about breaking the bank here but a couple of shrewd signings that could take us to the next level. More Shinnie / McLean type signings are required. Celtic are miles ahead, but they are there to be taken and squad rotation can have it's draw backs. We've already made good progress in terms of our domestic start following Europe compared to last season but the season is still very young. Need to keep the momentum up and our squad is incredibly thin. Unfortunately I also think that given that we are only recently debt free, the directors may be a bit cautious on expanding our budget.
  14. Tom, did you manage to upload any pics of your proposal? Or keeping your cards close to your chest?
  15. Latest ByTheMin podcast. Was a decent listen after the Well game. https://soundcloud.com/bytheminsport/btm-aberdeen-podcast-6
  16. Im still amazed Greer and Hanley get games. Horrible excuses for defenders. Even Topcorner could do better jobs than them!
  17. Lost 1-0 to the dhims today, probably Shanklands last appearance before St. Mirren tie up the loan deal.
  18. Hearts away ticket information: http://www.afc.co.uk/news/6635#.Vdsz6_lVhBc
  19. Possibly feel a bit bad for our boys but in the grand scheme of things I'm not that bothered. Rather they stay fit for our domestic treble
  20. Probably a very good description, a footballer that doesn't have a place in a football team. I'm concerned that going with one striker that is capable of scoring goals until Jan at the very earliest is a massive risk. Guess having the goals across the team is helping us a bit more this season but it's risky strategy. I'd like to have two recognised goal scorers up front. From what I saw of the highlights on alba, Parker looked good and that run into the box where he laid it off to McGinn was good, good weight to it. Can't remember if there was a shot on or not. Regardless, I'd like us to be signing one or two others before it closes but seems like this is increasingly unlikely Guess we have to hope that despite septic having the luxury of being able to rest 8 players, that it will cause them inconsistency because of the squad size. I'm not paying any attention to the arab result, they are shite.
  21. Hadn't realised this hadn't been set up yet for this season! Rules: 1. One name per points tally for the season, first come first served! 2. Allowed to change guess at any point as along as it is to an empty tally 90 89 88 87 86 85 84 83 82 81 80 79 78 77 76 75 74 73 72 71 70 - Manc 69 68 67 66 65 64 63 62 61 60 59 58 57 56 55 54 53 52 51 50 49 48 47 46 45 44 43 42 41 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 29 28 27 26 25 24 23 22 21 20 -------- Previous Champions: 2009-10: Dave_min (41 points) 2010-11: BigAl (38 points) 2011-12: Snapper (41 points) 2012-13: Tyrant (48 points) 2013-14: 2014-15: Dandy (75 points)
  22. Game on at the Hawthorns. West Brom missed a penalty at 0-0, Chelsea were 3-1 up, Terry got sent off and Morrison has now just scored an excellent header to make it 3-2. Decent debut for Pedro so far though, not quite sure what LVG was saying they didn't go for him earlier in the week though And then press chatter about Neymar? Someone is having a laugh at their expense. Not a chance.
  23. Down to those blue cunts 1-0 to freak goal. Oddly Hibs have had the best chances. Certainly should have been ahead before.
  24. Hibs really don't look very good.
  25. If we beat Patrick, I'd be disappointed if there wasn't, or at least around the 18k mark.
