And given Aberdeen are a big team its probably fair to say some refs will like Aberdeen?  No? I can think of 3 or 4 Premier League referees from the past who came from Aberdeen?

There are no current Aberdonian refs, so your assumption is massive.

 

The only Aberdonian ex-refs in my lifetime that I can think of are Sandy Roy & Alan Freeland, who else?

Have to say, AFC have done a good job on the PR front in advertising this.  Seems like a lot of folk have taken them up on wee poster you can adapt and put in your window:

Gutted I can't make the game myself, but absolutely buzzin' for it!

Tried that link OD, but i'm guessing you were on a tablet?

 

This was the one I listened to, was great:

Aye that's the same thing, the link i put up was a live video stream of the studio which was being put out on the BBC Sport site, but which probably only lasted as long as the program :)

 

I don't know how it came across on the radio, but one of the best bits was when God thanked Chick Young for being present "as a Rangers fan to balance the panel out" - the camera cut to Chick sputtering furiously while turning an odd colour, before cutting back to the entire panel laughing at him  ;D

 

Overall though i was pleasantly surprised by the chat, i'd expected a barrage of misty-eyed 1967 memories and "invincible" fawning (especially when Chick kicked off the program with "Scottish Cup - does anyone fancy Aberdeen in this whole building?"), but God and Tattie held their own well.

You could tell, it was brilliant.  I just knew Chick was sweating profusely! Thanks for the heads up anyway, a great listen.

Its on at 12am til 2am.

 

I was going to record it and get up early Sunday morning to watch it.

 

However, I feel I would lose some of my Aberdeen supporting soul if I waited til the morning.

 

So 2am it is and waking up fooking knackered and hungover.

 

Hmm.what to do.I'm staying up.deffo.

;D

 

Wud anyone call me a wanker if I went to bed and watched it in the morning?
