according to the P&J Blunderwood (copyright aberdeen-mad) will be absent from todays game as he is away scouting for players. Kinda wished I had gone up now as pretty sure JN has a decent record when he has been in charge, and certainly makes less bizarre tactical changes.

 

Anyway 2 things spring to mind.  It is still mathematically possible for us to get 3rd.  Pretty unlikely but surely the manager shouldn't be swanning off scouting players at this time.

Secondly is that not what a scouting system is for? Or indeed the job of Nicholl or Clark?

We have a game today?? 

If we lose he'll be slated for not being there.

 

If we win he'll be slated for not being needed.

Mr Hammer, meet the head of Mr Nail.

 

Although, we really should have a scouting system in place that means the manager is at the club on matchdays.

Don't really know what to expect from the game today. Hibs are hunting 3rd spot but being under pressure could hinder them.

 

Now that our games are quite meaningless, i'd like to see a fresh team on the park. Drop all the players who are confirmed as leaving and give some new guys a run out.

 

If they can't perform in the last few games of this season, when nothing is at stake, then they dont deserve to be here next season.

True, but this is more an indication of the (non) relationship he has with the fans.

 

It's not about whether the fans are being "fair" to our poor unfortunate manager, a man with some essential skills shortages, and clearly out of his depth.

 

It's more to do with the fact that there is now a significant number of Aberdeen fans that have no faith in him. I'm amazed it took them 4 years, frankly.

Do we have enough players if he drops all that are leaving?!

Stupid time to go on a "scouting" trip to Holland.

Today Motherwell draw or lose to UTD (currently 1-1 at HT)

Today we beat Hibs.

 

After this weekend:

 

We win all our next 3 (UTD, Well and Huns). Aberdeen 56 points.

 

Motherwell lose to OF and us and lose or draw with Hibs. Motherwell 52 or 53 or 55 points.

 

Hibs lose to OF and beat or draw with Motherwell. Hibs 53 or 55 points.

 

UTD lose to us and OF. UTD 52 or 54 points.

 

Hello Europe 

 

Basically, OF beat all other teams and Motherwell don't beat Hibs or UTD then we win all our games and its a done deal 

unfortunately, the only flaw in your plan is motherwell, they are 2-1 up 

unfortunately, the only flaw in your plan is motherwell, they are 2-1 up 

 

I think we can afford for that to happen.

 

Then Motherwell MUST lose to Hibs.

 

**I should note at this point I don't think we can do this I'm simply speculating as to the requirements 

2-2 Full time.

 

Still possible.

Aberdeen v Rangers

Dundee Utd v Celtic

Hibernian v Motherwell

 

We win and Hibs beat Motherwell or they draw and UTD lose to Celtic then we are home and hosed.

 

Depending on goal difference (which we have a poor one) we could possibly only draw, although Hibs or Motherwell could match our points total in this case.

 

Might as well stay positive until 4:45 today 

Woohoo, the dream lives on!   Come on ewe Reds!

Whenever I decide that I can't afford to go up to see a game, I regret it once it begins.

Sounds absolutely quiet at Pittodrie, even heard the HIVS fans!  

Sounds like a positive start.

Apparently about 500-600 people in the upper RDS. Pittodrie is empty. Not convinced by this start, open goal missed and langfield trying to gift a goal to the Hivs.

Hmm, noone I know has gone. Not even my dad who hasn't missed a home game all season.

God we really need to take advantage of all this possession and poor hivs play.

 

Typical Aberdeen, wasted so many good chances, Severin playing shite as ever. Season over sadly now  I just can't see us scoring against them today.

For fucks sake. Sounds like it's all Aberdeen, can't fucking take their chances, then they go and give away a goal. AND I could hear a really loud cheer, sounds like theres more Hibs fans than Aberdeen fans.

 

Why can noone on the team score a fucking goal?

YES!

 

Haha, what good timing for a sub!

Thats something I didn't expect to see! A Mackie goal!

Though maybe now JC will realise that bebo is shite.

Come on, make this peno count!

 

YESSSSS Europe is still on 

YES!

 

2-1!

 

C'mon Aberdeen, hope they don't sit back.
