  1. What a weekend of FA Cup football
  2. FT 5-2 What an arse collapse that was and we can have no complaints. We definitely have a habit of doing that in big games under Robinson. It reminded me of the quarter final at Easter Road earlier in the season. A comfortable first half, deservedly go in ahead at half time, then completely shit the bed and get thumped second half. Difference is we only shipped three goals in one half that night, five today. Whenever we seem close to actually achieving something, this happens. Ryan Flynn has been a great servant but he’s done at this level. He was at fault for at least two of those goals. I understand we have issues at right back when Strain is injured, but I hope he never plays for us again. Hemming was shit, again, Killie fans singing his name towards the end was some laugh. I really hope he isn’t our goalkeeper next season. We are on still on the verge of the top five and European football, but we simply won’t get it playing like that. Big game at Fir Park in a fortnight.
  3. HT 0-2 Yep think we've been the better side and deserve to be comfortably ahead. First goal's a lovely corner by Kiltie, stramash, and then slammed home by Charles Dunne. His first goal for the club in his 87th appearance. Second goal's another lovely corner by Kiltie, from the same side, stroked home by Mandron at the back post. Bizarre defending by Killie for that one, lovely. Killie not done much at all, they've been rubbish. Think Dunne's been our best player actually, he's copped a lot of stick over the years but he's been great today and took the goal superbly. Keep playing like this and we will win this game comfortably.
  4. I think this might be the best game of football I’ve ever seen
  5. Aberdeens games in hand are surely going to come into play at some point?
  6. Just here to laugh out loud at Aberdeen. Only them could appointment an Interim manager in February till the end of the season and bin them in March. Data Dave has had four managerial appointments flop out of four. Whoever the fifth is will no doubt continue the hilarity.
  7. Murray out in straight sets to Rublev in round two of Indian wells. Did beat Goffin in the first round. Sounds like he’s going to retire after the olympics in the summer.
  8. No surprise in that decision. Unless something very weird happens Trump wins easy in November.
  9. Foden is frighteningly good. Only 23 too, and already won the lot at club level. Going to retire with quite the honour roll.
  10. To go on and lose it. Aberdeen scored in the first minute yesterday and were leading to the 95th. Before losing it to goals in the 96th and 97th. Any other Scottish league games where a team has been ahead for 94 minutes of a game and still lost?
  11. Seven points from your lot this season. Thanks for the cheese. See you next season, if you’re lucky.
  12. FT 2-1 Quite enjoyed the tactic of delivering an absolutely chronic second half performance, up till injury time. Lulled the Dreadful Dons into a false sense of security, then went and stuck two goals past them in the 96th and 97th minutes. Must be heartbreaking for Aberdeen fans that, lovely. Took our fourth (4th) VAR check for possible penalty of the game for us to actually get one. Good on the captain stepping up, looked confident and struck it well. I actually wanted him to take a touch before scoring the pen, sadly, he just needed the one. Could see the crestfallen Dons were there for the taking after the equaliser, and my word ,we took them. Cross, knockdown and the on fire Olusanya there to prod it home. The Aberdeen time wasting didn't work after all, shame. What a win. Top six is in the bag now, just a question if we can get top five and Europe. I think we will.
  13. HT 0-1 Some strike for the opener, can't do anything about that. Since then we've been well on top, but a familiar lack of quality in the final third is killing us. We've had three VAR reviews for possible penalties, none given. Didn't think any were in real time tbf. We've also had three clear cut chances and taken none of them. Jamieson had the best of the three, with an open goal at the back post he's somehow put over the bar. If we keep going like this surely we are going to score at least one in the second half.
  14. We are certainly favourites. The league table doesn’t lie, we are a better team than Aberdeen. Naturally, a lot of talk about Miovskis infamous Chun Li style penalty in August. The more relevant measure is the last time we played each other, when we’d went up to Pittodrie in December, missed a penalty ourselves, and still gubbed them three zip. Have they somehow got even worse since then? St Johnstone produced one of the worst top flight performances I’ve ever seen at St Mirren Park last weekend. A few days later, they’re winning easy in Aberdeen. Still, I feel we need to be wary, football’s a funny game, and we have struggled against bottom six opposition at points this season. If we get complacent I think the plucky, lucky Dons are capable of pulling off an upset and getting something. Let’s all hope for no more ‘honest VAR mistakes’, regardless of the result.
  15. I think the parallels between Warnock 2024 and Butcher 2014 are becoming more and more apparent. The incumbent try hard manager means well, but it’s clear he’s never going to take the ‘sleeping giant’ above mid table. Simply not good enough for clubs with a fan base like them. To the surprise of no one, said snoozy giant bags the try hard whilst sitting comfortably mid table during the season. For clubs like us, it surely can’t get any worse than this? Give it to the old fella till the end of the season, he’ll sort them out. Shortly after the English veteran is appointed it becomes clear that it could in fact, get much worse. Whereas Pat Robson was getting draws at home to teams like St Johnstone, Neil Butcher turns those unacceptable results into defeats at home to teams like St Johnstone. The mid table comfort quickly melts away in the spring sunshine. Warnock’s a dottery old man who should have been put to pasture years ago. More dangerously for Aberdeen fans, he doesn’t look the least bit arsed. He won’t be here next season regardless, and he certainly won’t care about CV damage at his age. Could Data Dave sack an interim manager? Will Warnock walk? What then? An interim for the interim? What a mess the Dons are in.
