Used to be half decent banter on there with a fair few of the guys from the old "offishal" site posting on there. Have to say it was an extremely annoying site at times with the layout and constant adverts spoiling matters Quote

BigAl Posted November 20, 2024 Report Posted November 20, 2024 Thirty eight years ago the late Iain Porterfield took on the toughest job in Scottish football by succeeding Sir Alex as Aberdeen manager A pretty near impossible task but his record wasn't that bad during his tenure and undoubtedly not helped by Scottish football changing with Murray printing his own money and pumping it into Ibrox 1 Quote

Reekie_Red Posted December 7, 2024 Report Posted December 7, 2024 One of his first games foe us, he did his trademark somersault ... when someone else scored But yeah that Dens hattrick was him at his cocky best Quote

BigAl Posted May 28 Report Posted May 28 Neale James Cooper Seven years ago today. Taken far far too young. Bet he had tears in his eyes watching down on Saturday 2 Quote
baggy89 Posted May 28 Report Posted May 28 At the 2017 final, I got tickets off a lad who had something to do with Village Hotels. When I went there to get them, he invited us to stay for the pre-match entertainment. They had Cooper, Kennedy (and I can't think who the third was?). Joey Harper also said a few bits at the end; he seemed to be there with Cooper. Cooper was the entertainment, though. Had the whole place in stitches and was the highlight of the day for me and the lads I was with. Imagine everyone who met him came away with the same impression of him. 1 Quote

BigAl Posted Thursday at 15:34 Report Posted Thursday at 15:34 Forty nine years ago I saw my first League Cup final win with a 2-1 (AET) victory over The Victims with goals from Drew Jarvie and The Brush (RIP). Ally McLeod's (also RIP) finest hour as Aberdeen manager. I remember being absolutely euphoric, little did I know what the next ten years or so would bring us Halcyon Days indeed 3 1 Quote
OneBrianIrvine. Posted 10 hours ago Report Posted 10 hours ago On this day in 1997 Dean Windass received 3 red cards in a 5-0 shoeing at Tannadice, accruing 22 penalty points and a 6 week ban. Not all bad though as Roy Aitken received his jotters after the match. As the man who let my hero Irvine go (despite the clubs pledge that there would always be a place for him at the club after his MS diagnosis…) I wasn’t complaining. Almost 30 years ago, wow. And no I still haven’t forgiven him. 1 Quote
