  1. Fuck. That.
  2. Great post and I think it summarises my thoughts and feelings towards the McInnes era well. I’ll be forever grateful for the league cup win and breaking the into hoodoo (which I and not Jute was present lol). Definitely felt that 2017 was the time for him to go and I do wish he’d left for the Huns. Would he have been successful there? Maybe, maybe not. He hasn’t necessarily proved that he knows what to do with money. id rate his overall time as a B-, it really could and should have been much better. A second trophy would have changed everything IMO, and qualifying for Europe. Why he failed consistently to do that is beyond me. Yes, we faced some big teams, but there were also shit teams we should have dispatched. I wish him and doc well, and I’m intrigued to see what cormack does to really set his tenure going.
  3. Good to see you posting here again, Stooge! Looking forward to reading this on the train in the morn ?
  4. As a mate of mine said, if we’re going for any Robinson, it should be Karl at Oxford. Played decent football at Franchise FC (mk dons). Why do folk want anyone with any recent experience of the spfl? They’re fucking shite (except Clarke).
  5. Sun reporting it as true.
  6. Lots of rumours on Twitter saying he’s been binned today, but I haven’t seen it from a source I’d say that has a reliable record. Not reading too much into it yet
  7. It’s funny that yanks apparently hate socialism and haven’t a clue what the difference is between it and communism. I mean, I’m not surprised with the amount of drugs and shite food they’re fed from day 0. anyway, one thing I always applaud is that their sports leagues are exactly that, socialism in action. The controlling mongrels in Scotland will never have the appetite for it, and I doubt the chairmen do either. We’d need a breakaway fans league to get anything close to what is needed. Viva la revolucion!

    Films

    Dark waters. Excellent film and very dark. Always suspected du pont were cunts (large yank company) and this very much confirmed it.
  9. I think you might have misunderstood what I was getting at. It’s brilliant for st. Johnstone, I’m jealous of their feat. It’s more embarrassing for us that despite us being Scotland’s “second club” during this period (obviously not in the last three years) despite the investment, it has shown that we have very little to show for it. This is a criticism of DM and the club. I don’t for one second think that we deserve anything, but I don’t think we’ve wanted it enough. There has been bad luck (Rodgers years) but the last few seasons it feels like we’ve just not had the desire, skill or nous to win. Luck plays a part (as al alluded to) but winning does not not appear to be in the clubs mentality at the mo. in terms of variety, it’s also good for the country.
  10. Hamilton have done well of late, obviously anderson seems to have settled in pretty well and we all know what the probably politics are behind that. Anyway, be interesting if they play with the same verve without him. a game we should win, but probably struggle and get a draw from. The two Celtic games were very similar to each other and the killie game was a surprise (although our record against them is very good). Feels like this team is just going through the motions at the moment and we’ve no bite in the middle. out bed bed bed 1-1, kamberi
  11. Thoroughly embarrassing. Don’t get me wrong, I’m pleased for them, but absolutely jealous given the investment this team has received over the years
  12. Disappointing if that’s true. Not that he would ever come to us, but still, disappointing.
  13. Aye, but he was at hibs , so that ticks a box in itself ?
  14. Not expecting anything from this game, despite the result at the weekend. Given our form against them anything from this game will be a massive boost. Obviously they lost to county away last weekend but I’d expect a response from them against us , bucktooth loves a game against us. We were unlucky not to get something the other week but they still managed to squeeze a result out. anyway, Hornby has been ruled out with a tear so potentially Ruth comes in? Hoping that kamberi can get a goal his effort thus far deserves. out bed bed bed (ha) 2-1 Tim’s, kamberi
  15. Absolutely. Think the best examples we can give are fergie and McLean . Lots of first team experience and we should even be getting the likes of those to chat to them.
  16. You jest, but my folks were sending me my uni certs (track and trace) and it said it hadn’t left the post office after two weeks. Turns out, the tag is still in the post office...who knows about the package.
  17. Have heard 2020 has been a mad year. Hope you’re well. great to wake up to 3 points for the dons, can’t ask much more for a birthday present. Please let it be the start of better things!
  18. You genuinely couldn't make this up. Maybe they realised how dodgy it looked?
  19. Welcome aboard! Interesting suggestion! Are you an Almelo resident? Agreed he has done really good work there and had some very credible results. Tbh, I'm ready for a fresh approach, I don't think available Scottish talent is all that.
  20. Sounds like I won't bother even watching it then
  21. That would be even better
  22. Only three rangers players were involved, but Tavernier turned up with the police started handing out penalties.
  23. Anyone but the scousers ?
  24. Been holding off starting this thread. In recent times, I'd been fearful enough of this fixture (due to them actually being good). Now they're shite but seem to be finding a few goals and we're, well, pathetic. No win in 9 and well, equaling our record of games not scored. Celtic are still shite, but I can't see anything other than another capitulation. Previous McInnes teams showed some sort of desire, fight or drive. This squad possess none of those things (at the moment). Doesn't feel like they have the heart to fight for him. Out Bed Work or driving Work or driving 3-0 dhims, no dons scorer
  25. I hope someone get's the best of him. Just a shame he didn't get a prem club sooner.
