    Much as it pains me in this instance, I can't really disagree with that summary Rico.

    Having said that can't say the prospect of visiting the Tony Macaroni Bowl again particularly appeals to me 

    Aye, it's pish. However, I would also like the plastic pitch thing to come to a head in the most controversial way possible, given the blatant self preservation vote.

    For all mankind.  Don't want to give any spoilers but it's like a Sorkin kinda show but NASA being the focus in an alternative universe going from the 60s space race.  4 series so far with more on the way and it's genuinely one of rhe best things I've ever seen. 

    I know it's a popular forum, but I'm not sure the audience is that widespread. Anyway, what's the name of the show, it sounds good?

    Good finish by Hale for second. 18 goals in a struggling team. Worth a look over the summer? 

    He's never looked particularly good against us (think he has scored, but so has everyone), but otherwise has looked decent. He's probably better than Dabbagh and Sokler, so don't see why not. Be interesting to see if he could do it as a sub for the most part.

    Nice goal puts County 1-0 (2-1) up in the playoffs

    2-0 now. Horrendous mistake by Kelly, who is normally a pretty good midfielder. County to survive another playoff by the looks of it.

    Rico is available although might not be fit for a full ninety minutes any longer 😉

    Even if they just need me for one game to absolutely nail Connor Barron, that'd be fine. I'd likely break my own legs in the process, but they've had a good run.

    To each their own but I'm quite the opposite.  Can't wait for next season now 😂😂😂

    Aye, I just found it exhausting! I noticed that the shiteshow down South had games on yesterday. I don't know/care when they moved it, but not having the FA cup final on the last day is absolutely rank. Talk about devaluing the competition. I couldn't imagine having the weekend we just had, and then heading to Paisley (or wherever) next weekend for a league match. Anyway, that is just one of the many reasons that English football is for cunts.

    Christ almighty posting another link to BBC Scotland 😲

    Haven't listened yet but away to do so now 👍

    Fantastic. Unforgettable. 

    Great to hear Shinnie too. Legs have gone, never a leader etc etc. Get it up yis, anyone who ever spouted that trite, cliched pish. First up for the pens, and smashes it in the top corner. Proper fucking captain.

    Not said much on the game since Saturday, it was too unbelievable, but we were immense to a man. Even lads like Keskinen, who didn't have a great game, Nisbet too, worked their arses off. Devlin was fucking ace (and I was so pleased to see him playing left back instead of Jensen - who was brilliant on Maeda - as he keeps things simple and is relentless in marking his man), as were the rest of the back line, especially top Dandy: Milne. Was surprised when Clarkson came off, but Palaversa worked his arse off. Every change was spot on from Thelin, and at the right time. Polvara coming on to play out of position, Tobers did well, MacKenzie solid and positionally excellent, and Gueye and Dabbagh ran themselves into the ground and challenged for everything. Thon Morris lad did alright too.

    Was sitting next to Brian Irvine, and he looked fairly nervous before the pens! I was certain we were winning it when it went into pens. Our keeper was/is miles better, with Schmeichel looking tiny in the goals, comparitively.

    I don't really care about next season now. A much needed break from fitba.

    Not sure the procession needed the coach and 2 ambulances following it though.

    I think the coach might have been for families and the like. Also, I think someone collapsed in front of the bus at one point (I think they were fine), and I wondered if they had thought that maybe being right behind the bus would be the quickest way to get to anyone in an emergency? Or the paramedics are just massive fucking Dandies and blagged their way to a front seat at the parade.

    As probably the biggest critic on here of BBC Scotland, I have to give them some serious credit on this one 👍

    Great choice of song with Johnny Cash's vocals providing the edge.

    More than a few tears shed watching that mix of past glories that I was present at and also yesterday's ones.

    Pfft. Bloody cringe worthy shite. I've got hay fever, and that's the only reason why my eyes are bloodshot watching it. And I chopped some onions on Thursday too.

    Useless bastards could have driven the bus forward and extra ten yards so that those on Union Street could see it! A good few thousand couldn't see the bus, and I noticed some leaving. Better not happen next year. 

    Good to see so many Dons fans out for it. Great to see all the players enjoying it, even those leaving (McGrath getting "Hibs are falling apart, again" at him was mildly amusing). 

  11. Hope all you central belters are able to make the street parade at short notice! Great to see folk on the bridges all the way up the road to Aberdeen last night waving Dons flags. Top effort. Will take the kids to Union street today. Never know when the next one might be (I'm not even sure you have one for winning the Europa league?).
