Game is in 8 days but not heard anything about tickets for the game. I would assume that they will just be selling at the game and we wont have to get them through AFC?

I got a text saying Duff has been our best player in the first half!

Lovell was leading the The Footballers Golf Classic that was "live" on sky sports this afternoon,

 

Played in Spain.

 

So its either nae live , Or nae Lovell at dens.

We had a chance after 2 mins when Miller hit the post, and I think they've had one chance. Sounds run of mill pre season friendly.

 

Lovell is there according to RedTV commentators. Find it strange he's hanging around so much and no talk of getting a club in press. He even had a 'special message' for someone at half time on Saturday.

 

Signed for Dundee according to folk on the hat.

You or Amy 

 

Neither. I was quite upset.

 

Well I think the RedTV guys know who they saw.

 

Mizer says we're shit. No surprise there.

 

JDV has just left as his wife has gone into labour apparently.

Signed for Dundee according to folk on the hat.

 

FFS, we should be entitled to a refund

Dundee forums don't know anything about it! And they just paraded Colin Cameron at half time as a new signing.

If he's signed for Dundee then its a bit of a step-down for an allegedly great striker.

0-0, I'm sure I missed a rivetting match

0-0 Full time?!

 

Jesus...

0-0 and no shots on target

we're doomed.

we're doomed.

:lolabove: :lolabove:

I thought they played well against Manchester United (despite the loss) so this is a bit of a dissapointment.

Not a single shot on target for Dons in truely awful performance.  Got a feeling a few of the Globe Reds will have something to say about it.  Wish i was as drunk as them watching that though!!

Was pretty dire, but I'm not going to worry until we play like that against Inverness.

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

 

Pretty dire... but usual pre-season fodder.

 

Things can only get better 

 

 

Hit the post in first few minutes... only moment of excitement from an Aberdeen point of view (before I left 20 mins prior to full time).

 

And globes - I'll give you "part time supporter"  

Was just trying to beat the traffic and get home before i fell asleep at the wheel 

 

We were just amazed you lasted longer than half-time Jager! 

 

Aberdeen were shockingly bad, pre-season game is not an excuse for that performance.

 

Clangers even managed to kick out the ball for a corner 

 

Dinnae ask me how all the new players did, as the team were mainly playing in the wrong numbers and I got all confussed! (nae spelling mistake FJ, intentional!). In others opinions on train back Young, Duff and McDonald were worst three (7, 11 and 8 ).

 

I haven't renewed my ST yet, and on that performance I'm now even less likely too

 

I thought Duff was one of our best players.

Our pre season games this year are a mark improvement in quality compared to last season before the Egypt tour.

 

 

Play Man Utd and Dundee or Cove and Buckie.

Anyone know where Diamond was tonight?

He had a knock,  Not sure where he was.

Not a single shot on target for Dons in truely awful performance.  Got a feeling a few of the Globe Reds will have something to say about it.  Wish i was as drunk as them watching that though!!

 

I think we may have upset a few of the pro jimmy crowd 

 

I thought Duff was one of our best players.

 

We had best players  ???  :stretcher: :tumbleweed:

 

Derek Young for me was the most woeful, but lots of the other guys on the train had valid reasons for voting for other players namely Duff and McDonald as Aberdeenladette says.

 

My mate in the Dundee end text me midway through the 2nd half saying they were poor and we were poor and the game was clearly heading for a 0-0, and he was right. Worryingly I keep thinking that Bebo was our best player (simply because Seve was ok but in the wrong position) and that was him having his average game. Thats how poor we were.

 

 

Langfield - bad kicking, otherwise not much else to do

Mair - didn't look too sharp but did OK

S Smith - looked sharp, eager to please, played some neat passes, made a couple of good tackles.  Rough round the edges but wouldn't be scared to pitch him in again.

Kerr - looks like he'll be a big player for us, likes to pull the strings and always chose the right option

Considine - a bit rocky in places but did OK

Severin - looks really short of confidence playing back there

Young - unfit and played some terrible passes but had one or two good touches as well

McDonald - good engine but far too many wayward passes, mind you if he sorts that out we could have the making of a good midfield pairing with him and Kerr

Miller - some good touches but needs to up his work-rate.  Lays the ball off and stands still rather than making space for himself

Maguire - did OK but he's not the answer

Duff - looked composed on the ball, distribution was good, probably our best player on the night

 

Foster - added some much-needed sharpness to the proceedings when he came in, giving us a genuine threat down the left hand side

J Smith - as with Foster, allowed Dons to go up a notch, but by then there were too many tired legs

Mackie - usual Mackie, got in about them, more of a threat than Maguire

Stewart - didn't get long enough but looks like a hard-worker

 

These games all about getting players' fitness levels up and experimenting with players and formations.  We did OK in the circumstances but we should make more of how they're doing come the last game of the Holland tour when they're fit and sharp.

Was pretty dire, but I'm not going to worry until we play like that against Inverness.

 

My dad was at the Caley v County game last night. He said it was a 'comedy of errors' and that Caley were horrific, particularly in defence. County won 3-2.

Kerr - looks like he'll be a big player for us, likes to pull the strings and always chose the right option

 

Kerr was probably the player I was watching most last night to see how he would do. He had an ok game, but really reminded me of Barry Ferguson (in a crab way). Everything was sideways or backwards very little went forwards. He also showed his love of passbacks, not the best thing when Langfield is there and in that strong swirling wind. Thankfully he did only one or two to Langfield, however did a few back to Considine and one was pretty stupid and a faster/fitter opposition striker would have intercepted and been straight through as the passback was played out wide.

 

The only thing I could argue with is you thinking Duff was out best player - he was poor. Kicking balls quite a few balls out for thrown ins under little to no pressure and unable to complete simple short passes.
