I have a good feeling that we are winning this one.

Goodwin got his first win for us against Hibs and I am of the opinion Robinson will too.

 

I agree with you. We should lose, we should put in an abject performance, we should lose at least two cheap goals and we should struggle to get many shots on target.

However, with Aberdeen such underdogs here, this is where Stephen Robinson is at his best. He's only lost five home games out of 13 in his managerial career v Hibs, only five out of 17 against Hearts, and only four out of 12 v Aberdeen. Just 14 home defeats in 42 against three teams with significantly higher budgets.

I don't know if he can create that at Pittodrie and make it a horrible place for opponents to come again, but I have a feeling he might just produce a wee surprise result on Saturday.

Aye, apparently, there's gold at the end of a rainbow .... it's aa aboot findin' the end o' said optical illusion. Ah think this sums up Robinson's task if fit he's seein' in trainin has him rubbin' eez hands together in expectation.

It has certainly been a horrible place for fans to come to for a while!

Game day

All being well, we should be back up the road for this.

Looking forward to it, probably need sectioned for saying that, but nearly always look forward to going to Pittodrie. It's usually the team selections that give me the fear and sadly for Robinson, his selections have been more in line with managers knowing they're gone, as not a new manager putting life back into a team.

Anyhoo, a win today would be most welcome.

Supposedly a special extended addition of the matchday programme available at the game, all about king joey.

A decent photo in the below link. Hope it works.

 

Must be a few stories of Joey from older posters on here??

Holy fucking weather.

Trying to channel the feelings I had when heading up for the Hibs game at split last season. Think they’d not lost for around 18 seasons in a row and we were honking. Enter Kevin Nisbet. 
 

Not going today but will start my 3pm IPTV slot with the usual optimistic view and see where it goes from there. COYR

I think it’s going to be grim in more ways than one today. 

[GASC1980]

Sadly I have that fear too.

Seen nothing since Robinson has come in to suggest he can get a tune out of our current squad and cannot see that changing today. Really think the changes to squad in January and 6 weeks to appoint a manager who only plays one way has fucked us. Desperately hope I am wrong but expecting Hibs to win comfortably.

Linlithgow v Clydebank

train back to Capital

0-3 No Dons scorer

I think it'll be similar to the Falkirk game in that at our best we'll look more structured and limit what Hibs can do. Problem will be if Hibs score, that will blow all our perfectly laid plans.

Sod it, 1-0 to the Dandies.

23/10 for a Dons home win against Hibs
