New captain Paul Hartley will make his first Aberdeen start. Trialist Grant Basey is still with the squad and he will get another chance to impress. The left back is likely to start the match.

 

Peter Pawlett is back training and he could get his first pre-season run out.

 

Mark Howard and Mitch Megginson picked up little knocks during the week but both will be fit to play. Darren Mackie also trained this morning and is fit after he was substituted early on against Port Vale after getting injured.

 

Richard Foster has been struggling all week with a injury he received last Saturday although he did train this morning so there is a slim chance he could be available. Sone Aluko is still not ready and Jamie Langfield is still sidelined with his foot injury.

 

McGhee will decide after today’s friendly with Brighton whether to sign young Aston Villa striker Jim Collins on a season-long loan deal.

 

 

What position did Pawlett play when he came on Manc?  I'd much rather see him played in a more central role, he could a lot more damage from there than out wide right.

 

I seem to remember something similar, though every game is different, but the idea of Pawlett tearing down the wing at Mulgrew is not a bad one at all.

If i'm not mistaken I think he was playing on the right and seemed to do well, but that may need some clarification lol

Are you going to ask the flowerpot for clarification?

It said no

Up to 100 football hooligans took part in an organised street fight as Brighton and Hove Albion played a pre-season match.

 

Groups descended on the city to take part in the pre-arranged stand-off.

 

Residents and publicans locked their doors as two gangs clashed in Grove Hill, Brighton.

 

A team of 20 police officers stormed the scene and the group scattered in different directions.

 

Eleven people were arrested on suspicion of violent disorder.

 

The clash took place at about 4.30pm on Saturday.

 

The people in custody were expected to be released on bail late last night.

Is this the ASC up to their old tricks or is it just anither excuse by the headhunters or the yid army to keep our dodgy reputation going just because we were playing in England 

 

No that any o them need any excuses . . .

We're just transiding into a transitional period of transition.

 

Don't ask me anything about the game. I spent most of the time bugging Seve, catching the rays and snoozing.

Were you at the game as well? How uninterested did Aluko look when getting photos taken!

 

Think the highlight of the day was "I'd rather shag a sheep than a man".

Aye he looks utterly devasted in his one with me. I thought that's just because of me though. 

 

The chants at the end were the highlight. Why did it take us until the 89th minute to get a bit of atmosphere going? 

 

I quite liked "I'd rather shag a man than be a hun".
