  1. So ignoring loyalty points what are the chances of getting a ticket for the game if on holiday in Cyprus at one of the big resorts . I know capacity is smaller but believe not many home fans expected ?
  2. Pre Germany, has anyone any tips on best way to take in Cyprus game in September and be back for England game and also the game in Seville. Limited research suggests flying to Larnaca and staying there and making own way to Nicosia. Any input from experienced tartan army members much appreciated as I plan my boys first trip away.
  3. Fair play to Mr Burrows. Attended question and answer session in Edinburgh and left happy then wondered how much was was it a PR exercise in telling us what we wanted to hear. My word so far he has been true to his word. So good, so good.
  4. Barry got us into 3rd place playing roughly the same eleven week in week out despite some of them being knackered/carrying injuries as he did not trust those on the bench. Now he has players bursting to prove how good they are. Our first eleven tail end were a bit special. I felt he was over reliant on some players but now we have options . It is a very exciting time to be an Aberdeen fan. Loving it.......
  5. Don't want Coulson at right wing back, not fair on him. Has to play Baron but probably won't. Can't see anything other than a Hearts win but hope I am wrong .
  6. Aye. What's wrong with plain black boots eh? Maybe a wee puma stripe allowed but as Henry Ford once said you can have any colour as long as its black.....
  7. Only concern would be that Pollock was found out being right side of a back three against Rangers. At least three goal scoring opportunities down his flank against Rangers , which Celtic or a European side will punish. But fair play to him as a bit of his brain thought about bringing Sakala down but he changed his mind avoiding a certain red card.
  8. Stuff Beyonce, we will play Hearts anywhere anytime. Bring it on.
  9. This is fantastic news. Pollock is Pollock but MacDonald is solid and unfussy. Just a solid centre back ( all the things I expected Mr Stewart to be). Look at our defensive record since he came in . Immense and he gets it!
  10. Does the last two games against possible relegation candidates show why Mr Robson is not the long term answer. Early goals against Lower teams and then we sit on our lead. Not good enough. Landed lucky with 2 great goalscorer . We need to play more on the front foot when we get ahead. Sorry to be un grateful as Barry has done a great job but this team should be more expansive.
  11. As an outsider Derek McInnes is the obvious fit for Tynecastle. How would Hearts fans feel about him as next manager?
  12. Don't see Ross County as bottom team. On their day better than Dundee United and Kilmarnock. Saw Simon Murray a fair bit at Queens. On a rise vein of form just now. Best goal scorer of all 3 bottom teams. Expect Ross County to be 10th at worst.
  13. In the Diddy league Goodwin and now Neilson lost their jobs after hitting a losing streak they seemed unable to reverse. A good manager will find a way to grind out a result when everyone thinks the team is in freefall.
  14. This is where we find out how good a manger Owen Coyle is now. When results are good and football free flowing its easy being a manager. Sadly on Friday night Queens looked done. Can he turn it around in a week? You need to turn it around as soon as possible or season will Peter out. Bad time to hit a slump....
  15. never been a Neilson fan but shocked by his sacking. Deserved to get at least the Edinburgh derby in charge as his record in it is pretty good. Who have Hearts got lined up?
  16. Cove Rangers fans will be delighted if you take Hartley.
  17. Feels like a momentum swing but hey its the Championship and it's Dundee. Suspect there will be more momentum swings at the top of the league but the bottom looks sorted.
  18. Apologies to all St Johnstone fans for the unacceptable behaviour of the small minority. Always got on well with fans from other clubs before and after games. Going to Aberdeen games home and away is so much better thanks to the young team , just don't cross the line.
  19. Good luck on Saturday against Morton. Been twice and seen Morton win. Cant go this Saturday so you should win. Best football playing side in league by miles and young Mr Healy is rather splendid.
  20. can we please not be as bad as we were last time at Tannadice. At least we now have proper centre backs. Can we now play proper full backs instead of converted wingers and could we try one up front through the middle then bring the other on if needed. Plus did anyone see United vs Ross County ? If we can have same spirit as we showed against Livingston we should beat United or at least not be humiliated. Goodwin inability with a full bench to change things about that day and Lee Sharp's post match interview. " sometimes you get days like these" still stick in the craw.
  21. Was going to suggest Goodwin as a manger may be limited and not what Dundee United need at this point in time. However after reading the input from St Mirren fans I may be a bit late. Most Aberdeen fans tried to give Goodwin the benefit of the doubt until the dreaded 42 days but boy St Mirren fans hate him.
  22. Same as others. Suspect Goodwin joining United makes them favourites to win on Saturday, but would not surprise me if United don't win again until relegated
