Sammy Lee.

I can see the Celtic game remaining on a Tuesday due to ESPN but I think the other two will be moved to the Wednesday.

http://www.afc.co.uk/articles/20101231/fixture-announcement_2212158_2255187 We now have 5 home league games in February and there is a chance of a 6th home tie depending on the Scottish Cup.

Back then I hardly went to games. The last game I went to before Alex Miller became manager was a 1-1 draw with Dundee Utd in March of 1997. I think I didn't go to another game until February 1999 when we beat Killie. My parents rarely took to games when I was a kid, in fact I think they've only ever taken me twice. Before I got my season ticket in 2000/01 I relied on tickets from my primary school or my one of my dads friends from work who used to get complimentary tickets for games.

Can't find anything about this guy from a quick Google search. What position does he play? I've got my fingers crossed that he is a left back.

Went for McGhee. The pain of his 18 months in charge is obviously still raw. I know all about the Alex Miller era but looking back at AFC Heritage website I don't believe I ever attended a game while he was in charge whereas I attended so many games under McGhee that left me so angry or disappointed.

A few days ago I was looking at these two fixtures - Hibs and Hamilton as games which could leave us cut a drift at the football of the table. I was very pessimistic about our chances of picking up more than a point or two. However these two wins have lifted my spirits so much. The football might be crap but it sounds like we've finally got ourselves organised for the first time in weeks. I'd happily grind out 1-0 after 1-0 win until we were mathematically safe from relegation.

2-0 Badpenis again. At least if it stays like this Hibs will be staying below us. We can always just beat the Jutes on Saturday

I really hope we get a nice big crowd on the 1st to welcome Brown and Knox. However the most important thing is will the Pittodrie bar be open for a few pre-match pints so I don't have to sober up?

Another AFC Chat refugee here. I used to post on Donstalk a few years ago and there are a few names on here I recognise from back then still here. I'm 25 and work in the BoD for an IT company. First Dons game was a 3-1 win over Hearts on the opening day of the 1994/95 season. I attended a couple a games a season (normally when our school got free tickets) until 2000/01 when I got a season ticket and have been a season ticket holder ever since. I would be lying if I didn't say there had been a few summers where I thought "What is the point?" but in the end I guess I'm a sucker for punishment.
