Was watching game live and you could see right away it was bad. Pictures just confirm it. As Sheephied said Gordon has been incredibly unlucky with injuries in his career. If not for the injury when at Sunderland he would have gone on to play for one of top clubs in England. From memory both Arsenal and Liverpool were showing interest at the time. His injury this time is a massive headache to Steve Clarke as not one of the other keepers available is even close to Gordon’s level.

At least Stewart will be out. Would play McKenzie at left centre back and move Scales into middle of three. Not sure how injured Coulson is but if he is out hopefully Hayes is fit to replace him. Despite Colgates Christmas message of support I do think a loss on Tuesday might see the manager come under some severe pressure. In/oot not sure yet. Flat or train Flat or away end Train back to Capital or flat 2-0 Ramierz and Miovski.

He signed the shocking defenders.

Looked outside box on replay that I watched. Red card all day long but really surprised it was a penalty.

Red TV were defending Richardson pregame.

Some strike for goal. Had come close just before as well.

Richardson dropped and Kennedy back in.

I see Besijen has been allowed to head off back to Netherlands when we have a game today. Could he be another that’s on his way out.

Was at Cove’s game tonight with Accies and Fyvie was Coves best player by some way. Could easily still be playing in top flight.

Despite Jim claiming players were tired after 4 weeks off not expecting him to make many if any changes from yesterday. As others have said Saturday is becoming a massive game for us as we need to get a win to stop the rot. oot out in Aberdeen out in Aberdeen out in Aberdeen 2-1 Miovski and Lopes.

Would that be one of your mates you did the huddle with?

That was all on Goodwin and his second half substitutions. There were individual errors by usual suspects on the goals but in the main the manger has blown this game.

Both sides look poor at times. Stewart been awful. Great strike for free kick but wife beater should have got it on his side of goal.

Assuming Kennedy injured as not even on the bench.

McKenzie dropped for Scales as expected and unbelievably Richardson back in.

Like the options on formation above but only change I can see Goodwin making is McKenzie dropping out for Scales. Rest will be as per Saturday. They are not as good as Victims so we maybe able to play a bit further up the field but after kicking we got at Ibrox not expecting us to be that adventurous. Oot - work tv sleep 1-3 Lopes with Dons goal

Probably should.

Disagree. We don’t have a serviceable right back at the club so getting one is a priority. Don’t disagree about fact we have far to many wide attacking players and not enough central midfielders but right back for me is a must sort as a lot of our defensive issues are down to how poor Richardson is.

We looked better defensively as we had 8 at the back for 90 minutes. Jack McKenzie played well but will be dropped or moved to accommodate the return of Scales.

Getting what we deserved from the game. Cannot approach Tuesday like this.

65 minutes in and we have not touched the ball in the opposition box. Murder to watch. Only positive is Victims have not really looked like scoring. Might sneak this.

This is as negative a set up as anything under McInnes.

Richardson dropped for Kennedy. Looks a bit lightweight in central midfield.

Going to have to make a change to the defence as Scales obviously cannot play against his parent club which immediately puts us at a disadvantage. We could bring McKenzie into play left side of a three but that means playing the defensively weak Coulson at left wing back. Other option is to switch to a 4 but Stewart and Richardson have struggled in this formation. Draw back of loaning a player from another team in your league. Early kick off combined with rail strike means I am out for this one which might not be a bad thing. Oot Christmas shopping TV if shopping finished Local game if any on 1-3 Miovski with consolation for Dons.

Young dons team through on penalties last night.
