Feels like it'e been an absolute age since we last saw a game (and it has), and what a game to kick it all off with. Just gutted we can't have any fans and I do wonder what impact that'll have on our players.  Sometimes they thrive on it, but they've also wilted under pressure, so it could be a blessing in disguise! 

I didn't think our form against them at Pittodrie was that bad, but we haven't beaten them in the league since 2016?!? Weird to think that our form at snake mountain has been better ?  We've had plenty of draws, but when there's been a winner, it's been them.

In / Out: Out
Prematcher: Night feed
Match: Bed I imagine
Postmatch: Combination of the above ?
Prediction: Dons 1 - Huns 2, McGinn
Crowd: 36 seagulls

Is this a private joke or is it because he's such a magnanimous and popular personality that he's always being invited to BBQ's? Or is this what he presents to others?

Brucie,Hayes,McGinn and Kennedy buzzing about the box could be interesting.Not confident though,will also take a draw. 2 - 2 (McGinn,Considine)

Fuck the draaaaa……………..I want these hun cunts sent back to the weeg with their bigoted tails between their legs and nul points registered on the league table

I suppose reluctantly I'd accept sharing the points if Harvey, Kunt and Hagi all copped Durrants. And McGregor copped a JFK on the bus on the way to the ground

If you paid attention you'd know.

Nae idea what to expect today like. Hate having this as the opener, with no prior look at how we might set up. I think we might see a very flat back four today:

---------------------------lewis-------------------------

Hoban------taylor------mckenna-----consi

--------------------------ojo-----------------------------

Mcginn-----ferguson----hayes---kennedy

------------------------anderson----------------------

A 4-1-4-1 with Hayes and Kennedy interchangeable, getting up in support of Anderson. Looks horrendous like, but exactly the type of thing I'd expect. I've left Hernandez out, as everything I've seen so far suggests he's nae very good. Although not much to go on from pre-season, the screamer far Hibs shows Hernandez playing primary school fitba in the lead up, headering back into his own box under no pressure. We simply can't afford pish like that against the Huns. His debut showed a player that didn't know how to play right back at all, I think Hoban might be seen as the safer option. Hopefully I'm wrong.

2-0 the dons, Hernandez double

First time in a hell of a long time I have been so disinterested in a season starting. Season tickets not renewed for the season, because of the shyte football on display the past couple of seasons.

Still want to hammer them today though.

Is this the real Millertime or just a poor imitation?

Nae joke Rocket.

Dave has been the first name on the BBQ invite list in Aberdeen for many a year. Particularly in the Brig O' Don area ?

Oh dear, the Brig o Don my least favourite part of the NE. No, my least fav part of the world.

Happy Yorkshire day everyone.

 

 

Pretty happy with that.

Strong looking bench.

Not that long a go we used to be listing players on the bench that I'd never heard of.

Aye it’s not bad. Surprised mcginn doesn’t start but I dunno, maybe keeping him as an impact sub makes sense given his age now.

Millermong indahouse. Dear oh dear

I do not care for that moniker.

Brutal watch so far. All rangers. Sitting back and letting them play ffs.

Ojo was fucking shite. 

Middle 3 in midfield have been awful. While Ojo has been bad, Ferguson is non existent, and Bryson simply running around chasing. Zero influence on the game hence we’re on the back foot the entire time.

That's a overstatement.   Even passing 5 yards seems beyond him.

The whole midfield has been, Bryson especially. We have options in the middle, hopefully he switches it up 

Midfield has been poor but Ojo worst of the three by a long way. Yellow card should see him subbed at half time.

Anderson has been shocking.

Wee Ronny Hernandez has been somewhat promising, needs to get forward more.
