Aberdeen v Dundee United

[swaddon]

The Cathedral of Football hosts its last service of 2025 on Saturday 27th December at 1745 Scotland time.

The pikey bastards haven't won at Pittodrie since April 2021 in the Scottish Cup and since August 2014 in the League (though they have spent a lot of seasons in the lower leagues in the intervening years).

I fancy us to set Jim Goodwin's team on the path to another relegation by stuffing them 3-1.

Got a pick 6 ticket package for the rest of the season,so (bouyed by todays plucky display),went to see what seats were available on the 27th.As far as I can see,theres only 1 seat left in the ground,which is in the Merkland.That canna be right,surely? Phone call the morn....

That sounds about right. They said they had only 500 tickets were left five days ago, and they've opened up the ticket exchange so fans can sell their tickets.

An email on Friday from the club, asking if we weren't at the game we could sell our season tickets, through them.

First time that has happened this season, so must assume it is  near a sell out.

Assuming lobban is suspended.

mitov

devlin Milne knoester gyamfi

Kjarten

Bilalovic aouchiche Armstrong karlsson 

lazetic

2-1 us, lazetic bilalovic, although I fear we’ll be bullied and bombared by a tall and physical team.

[TheDonbytheDee]

Looking forward to this one. Love a game against the Jutes.

Will Jimmy be bold and start Bilalovic and Kjarten? 

Gyamfi in for Lobban, will likely be the only change.

Need both a win and a  big performance in this one, after the let downs of Prague and Parkhead.

My first game of the season as home for Christmas (actually my first game since Christmas 2023 - that's dreadful!!!)

Can't wait - despite the form we have been showing. 

I reckon it will be a cagey 2-1 win, with very little footballing prowess on show, but leaving us with a reason to continue the festive drinking!

Devlin and Aouchiche

Festive crowds of recent years have been dropping so just assumed there would be plenty availability.Managed to get a ticket re-sale though

In - Y

Pre/post - driving

Prediction - Unleash that Bilalovic/Kjartansson frustration on the Joot. 4 - 1 Dons, Bilalovic x 3,Armstrong.

Looks like they have a fair few injury doubts. Hopefully all the big dirty bastards. 

[The.Moog]

We know what we’ll get in this game - physicality, long balls, long throws, and general joot hoof ball pish.

It works for them though, so can we counter it?

Based on experience so far - hmmm…

Think club has said it’s a sell out now? But guess the re-sale platform might change that. Hope to fuck we get a performance from the team, we need something after that woeful display at parkhead.
