I assume its actualy Baton Rouge Capitals he's played for. Some nice areas in Baton Rouge. Capital of Louisiana. Oh and is college "soccer" as competetive as college football is over there?

I was just about to ask the same thing. apparently 500 falkirk...

Random! I always assumed it was just my shite internet connection.

sneckie, my internet explorer one doesn't work. Try using Firefox if you can, seems to work ok for me.

No room for that progressive school of thought down Pittodrie!

League: 4th CIS Cup: Semi-final Scottish Cup: Quarters UEFA Cup: Last 32 (but beating Bayern at home )

I am in no way defending him, but he did shoulder some of the blame yesterday without directly saying it. Which in itself is a rarety. Calderwood fumes at Dons players Calderwood was bitterly disappointed after the loss at Tannadice Aberdeen manager Jimmy Calderwood was furious after watching his side lose 3-0 at Tannadice. "The players need to look at themselves and I told them that there are always mirrors in dressing rooms," he said. "Sometimes you want to smash them and I was very close to that. You can only do so much though and that is not taking any responsibility away from myself. "But too many good players are not performing anywhere near their capabilities for this club."

Completely agree, the three and 1/2 year contract not only puzzled me, but also worried me at the same time. The club have well and truly shot themselves in the foot with the length of contract. I imagine they saw it as a back up, should things go really well, and dare I say it a league 1 club came in for him. There would be a substantial compensation package for the club. But obviously the liklihood of this happening are slim to none. We have made slow ( albeit very boring) progress. But I am just not happy to ditch him and then we could suddenly find ourselves back in the days of Ebbe and JK. No thanks. The football was just as boring and we frequently got horsed double the amount we did yesterday. But as I said, its how they bounce back from yesterday's result. I do have doubts myself but i'm not willing to join the bandwagon. I truly think Calderwood is a right dick, but he has brought some stability back to the club.

Katongo I think it was.

I think its probably because this is the most stable and potentially the most successful the club has been in all my time as an Aberdeen fan (bear in mind I started mid 90s). Part of me does this he has taken us as far as he can, and there are a lot of things that he does which really question his sanity at times. However, as I said, we are no longer a laughing stock. I've always said judge him come the end of the season, as I feel this is the season that will make or break it for JC. Things change in football very quickly, so we'll just have to wait and see. I do question his motivational skills after games like this, but its more important how the club as a whole bounce back from this. A very important 10 days coming up in the club's calendar which will determine if this is a successful season or not.

I'm glad I wasn't there, it sounded absolutely horrendous. It didn't sound like one of our players had a good game today. Did Macnamara touch the ball in the second 1/2? Don't think I heard his name once.

Someone was saying that they thought we would get humped today...alas, he was correct

Game over.

fucksake. What a nightmare.

Thats a bit embarassing! Slower than Latapy

I may have missed this, but where is Touzani? Is he injured again? That aside, and possibly I would have liked de Visscher to have got a game, it's probably our strongest fieldable line up. Only major concern is having Mair AND considine in the same team

Haha doh!

My housemate is a trainee journalist. He's not a cunt but he openly admits he's full of shit But he does read the Guardian, so explains a lot.

Well if its up till the summer, I have no problem with that. See how he does, if he fails to impress, move him on. Not exactly a mouth watering signing, but nevertheless, he'll get my support.

According to another forum, he will probably goto Preston NE as the former assistant to David Moyes is now manager there. Sounds promising if we do manage to get him in though.

I noticed that. I don't really know who to believe!

Will probably also give people a bit of a wake up call that no-one is indespensible at the club. Who knows though. But I do agree it is a bit exciting, which is a change compared to our usual January's.

If this is true, then absolutely great. Easily future captain material and plays by example.

God I hope not. That would be a disaster.
