Thing is playing the type of football we play led to us getting humiliated in both semi finals.

Can also add Hart McNamara and Clark to the out list and Duff to the in list. Agree with Funster that not a lot of quality among the players who have left however the reduction numbers does leave us with a weaker overall squad.

Might only be me but I am not to upset about this guy possibly going. Is way to slow for the scottish game and also injury prone. As long as he is being replaced and we get a fee for him then this is no bad thing.

SSHHH your spoiling the surprise. You heading to this. Can you or your old man get tickets?

Not writing him off just pointing out that we have other priorities.

No.

What's your greatest hope for this season? - To play more entertaining football than last season when some of the stuff we played was dire at best. - And your biggest fear? - We play worse than last year. - Most important player - Severin or Smith (if he ever gets fit) - Cult hero/terrace favourite - Tounzani - Keep an eye out for. (young player) - Not produced a decent young player since Anderson so none - Player you'd happily drive to his next club. - so many deserving candidates it would be unfair to pick on just one. - What one change would you make at your club? - Get a proper training facility - Have you got the right manager? - On a few occasions he has looked the real deal but on many many more he has looked a clueless balloon so probably no. - What advice would you give him? - Play the ball on the ground we look like a decent team when we do that. - Which team do you most want to beat this season? - Everyone else - Opposition player you despise - Pretty much all of them - Opposition player you secretly admire - Barry Robson - Where will you finish? - anywhere from 3rd to 11th

38 about 5 of which were good matches the rest were utter pish.

RKC got beat in the play offs. ADO and FC Volendam were promoted.

Why because it will clash with your checked shirt? You got flights booked yet?

Prestwick flights are coming in at that level just now.

Hard to judge the guy from clips from dutch 2nd division as standard there can vary from what I have seen. Remember JDV looked good on clips from this level but has turned out to be short of what is required to play in SPL. Will only be able to judge this guy if/when we sign him and see him against SPL opposition.

Both St Mirren and Killie look good bets. Surprised Hamilton are odds on for the drop. Anyone know their odds for staying up?

Thats cause they were still using stone tablets to write on in those days.

Been to a few junior games at the end of this season and standard was alot better than I was expecting. Only thing I complained about was lack of a programme at a coupl of the games and the pies at Linlithgow being even worse than Pittodrie.

Watch other football and get drunk. Not saying I will not attend any Dons games just that I have seen nothing so far to convince me to make the comitment to attend every home game. You heading over to Holland?

Not seen anything to convince me yet that season ticket is a worth while investement.

Which one the fact that he has no idea abouy youth development or fact he is yet again allowing a player to leave us hanging on for his decision.

In no particular order Coming from 2-0 down to draw at snake mountain with a Bett double in last 10 mins. 1990 I think. Winning 3-1 at Parkhead with a team of youngsters including Jess and Booth in 1990. Could have been 6 or 7. Beating Hearts 6-2 at Pittodrie playing some of best football I have ever seen from a Dons team. Billy Dodds goal at Tynecastle that put us 2-1 up and above Arabs in relegation battle. Cannot think of anymore at the moment.

Going to make getting the train up a pain in the arse if it is an earlier kick off. Would rather it was a Sunday game if it is moved.

Allegedly being lined up as a player manager by one of the 3rd division sides. Cannot remember which one might have been Dumbarton?

See Gow is going to Burnley as part of Lafferty deal. Another off the list.

Wonder what the Alamo will be like after dark. Actually quite happy with the fixtures. Needed one of the easier games at home first as going to miss it for mates wedding so Caley meets that.

Agreed. Does mean that 4th placed team will be starting Europe in early July though. JC will not be happy at not getting his usual month and a bit in Spain if we are 4th next season.

JC quoted in paper today saying no interest in O'Brien.
