Is it maybe tickets that were held back for supporters clubs initially?

McInnes and staff his not taking Kilmarnock’s last game.

Quick check of top 6 games last night and United were highest with 4 Scots in starting line up. Rest all had less.

On Scots players I don’t think Devlin is sort to stick about to sit on the bench and Thelin seems to prefer Jensen so can see him moving on. Boyd’s development has stalled this season and unless we are going to use him more next season he probably needs to go on loan. Emslie, Lobban and Marshall all seem to have done well at Cove and Bavidage at Inverness after struggling at Ayr. It’s a big step up from league 1 to Premier so not sure any will be ready for first team. I think we will need to get in a couple of Scottish players in our summer spending. Who I have no idea.

Injuries have not helped Mitov either. Not looked like he is fully fit since returning. But as Orlando says have a poor defence in front of him is main reason his form is dropping.

Now 5-1

Thankfully St Mirren drew but can’t see us not losing to United after this. 4-1 probably slightly flattering on us tonight.

Looking through squad I think it looks like groups who will be U21 age group for next campaign.

Meant to say last night I am not sure there are any who deserved a call up. Maybe 3 lads who where at Cove this season but not sure they fall into this age group.

U20s squad for friendly against Slovakia announced. Not one Dons player in the squad.

Down at Sunderland v Coventry City in English league play off semi final. Sunderland scrape through 3-2 on aggregate to face Sheffield United in the final. Cannot see passed Sheffield United despite them never wing a play off final. Sunderland probably could do with another year in Championship. Stadium of Light is a fantastic stadium and crowd of 46,350 made some noise:

Nobody is Al’s vintage. I was at 1982, 1983, 1984 and 1986 as a kid because teacher at school got us tickets as he knew someone at SFA. Actually also at 1987 and 1988 finals with tickets from same source. 1990 was only one where I could celebrate it properly.

Would expect more squad rotation in this one possibly from both teams. Really hope we don’t go with approach from Sunday but fear we might. Just hoping we avoid another heavy defeat. No train back and on TV so not bothering with this one. oot Flat Couch Flat 2-0 no dons scorer

Way off topic lads but before thread hopefully goes back to it purpose of laughing at the Gorgie Huns I would say only reason we need Scottish players is the rules to play in Europe. Outside that as long as a player is good enough then it doesn’t matter where they come from and to claim you need a core of Scottish players to succeed is plainly wrong.

A very very very poor mans Ramadani.

Some game this. Now 4-2 Barcelona after being 2-0 down.

Barcelona v Real Madrid on premier sports just now. Been great game so far. Madrid 2-1 up after 18 minutes.

To put that doing into context that is their first home win since the start of February. We got beaten 4-0 by a team managed by Barry “almost relegated Clyde” Ferguson. Abysmal performance.

Anyone leaving the pub on the 24th needs their head looking at.

Much more positive start just as I have to leave pub to collect daughter. Typical.

FTFY

Been a brutal watch so far. We seem content to sit in and hope to sneak something on the break. Much like approach for the last 30 years there. Hardest part is they are not that good but we are showing no real intent to try and win the game.

Squad rotation due to three game this week?

Western Sydney lost 2-1. Milanovic didn’t do much in the game but with his current club’s season now officially over wonder if we will officially announce the signing.

Frustrating that actions of a few clowns have put us in this position. United also being punished as we would have sold a load more tickets so drop in income from then.
