  1. They should try and get a better deal. You'll get a nice 4 bed with a big garden in somewhere like Danestone for half that. For example: https://www.aspc.co.uk/search/property/347626/14-Laurel-View/Aberdeen
  2. Burns as a lone striker is one of the most baffling things I have seen in a long time. Especially as no-one seemed to let Reynolds and O'Connor know, so they continued thumping high balls up the pitch. I can't see any justification for dropping Maddison either. If we wanted to use our pace to get in behind their defence as McInnes said before the match, he's the only player in our squad capable of playing the sort of passes needed for that to become reality. I just don't understand what we were hoping to get from the game. In my mind, if you pack the midfield, it's so you're able to press the opposition midfield without leaving you exposed elsewhere on the pitch. We didn't do that at all, we gave their midfield all the space in the world. We're also continuously left exposed with Considine as an attacking outlet on the left wing, which isn't really fair on him either as he's a competent central defender and little more. It should be Shinnie overlapping with Hayes, and a big ugly brute of a player bashing heads in the centre of the pitch.
  3. I don't have enough loyalty points for it to matter to me at the moment, but I've been buying 2 tickets for each match online through my account for my wife and I. Does this mean that if I did have enough loyalty points, I'd only be able to buy a single ticket despite having bought 2 tickets for each match? So I'll need to register an account for my wife who lives in the same house as me for future matches? Seems a bit odd.
  4. The TV aerial will give you access to all of the Digital Freeview channels. Just by connecting the aerial to your TV, you'll get 50+ channels and all the radio stations. You'll even get the regular (BBC1/2, ITV, C4, C5, etc) in HD if you've got a decent signal and a newish TV.

  6. Someone go through Quitongo FFS.
  7. They'll go for the easy option, Paul Lambert.
  8. Working abroad and mostly lurking on Mad but it seems everyone's here now, so I'm back home in Aberdeen and on here!
  9. First visit to Pittodrie in about 7 years today, picked a nice CEO day for it!
  10. 5 to 1 ratio seems a bit stingy
  11. He's just the modern day Alec Cleland/Gary Bollan.
  12. Went to see Faithless on Friday night, alright if you like that sort of thing.
  13. Hope these fuckers go down. I had one of their scum fans accuse me of breaking Durrant's ankle tonight. Upon finding out I supported Aberdeen he attempted to shake my hand and said: "ach no hard feelings, you only broke Durrant's ankle." "eh? me personally?" "well aye, yer all at it"
  14. No, he was literally just too good for us.
  15. Polite way of saying they're no use. We did the same with Rohan Ricketts, and Lee Hendrie too I think.

    Downloaded Word of Mouth this morning, very good, going to try to obtain some more
  17. Dave Bus made Ifil look like Willie Miller.
  18. In/Out: In Pre-match: Probably having a nap for a few hours Match: On telly, 11.45pm kick off and need to be up at 6am next morning. Post-match: Back to sleep Prediction: 2-0 Tims
  19. Diouf signing for the huns surprised me a bit in that I'm surprised it's taken so long for him to sign for them.
  20. "completing the Club's activity for the current transfer window." No midfielder being signed then?

    Andy Murray

    Useless British twat.
  22. Do we have a throwing up smiley? That statement turned my stomach.
  23. How old was Maguire in 2007? 16? 17? A lot of people are pricks at that age, but grow up by the time they reach their early 20's. Would you want to be judged for your attitude when you were 16/17?
  24. Eric Clapton next month, not sure whether to get tickets for Stevie Wonder or not though.
  25. When I lived in BoD and worked in Altens, I always used to go through Ferryhill, cross the bridge by the bottom of the Duthie Park and up the Tullos Ring Road. Rarely took more than half an hour door to door, even when they were digging up Market Street. I think there's a shortcut through Kincorth that takes you out by the police station too. You could probably take a right after the bridge and take the A90 too if you wanted, I did that a couple of times when there was a big queue to turn left. If the white elephant bypass is ever built, there will be that option too. Regarding the bus going up Wellington Road, I'd assume someone somewhere would have some common sense and have a dedicated bus lane somewhere, perhaps going between Kincorth and the stadium, similar to the lane that goes from Lang Stracht to Kingswells Park & Ride for buses only. Would encourage more people to leave the car too.
