Rodhull Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Him saying “there will be no players coming in, the squad is what it is..” does not exactly inspire confidence when the squad has been completely lacking in creativity recently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very early days yet but I don't see any great challenges for 3rd this season for Aberdeen unless Hearts ditch Levein very very soon. Hibs seem to be going for a league 1 select which has failed many times before in this league and Kilmarnock look a shadow of themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we've got worse than last year but still expect us to finish 3rd right now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't inspire confidence though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside Celtic and Rangers, everyone else looks absolute dog shit. We're going to have Celtic winning the league, Rangers finishing second around 10 points behind but 20 points in front of a completely average chasing pack consisting of Aberdeen +1 or 2 others, and the rest of the clubs trailing not all that far behind 3rd or 4th place. You can pick a name from a hat as to who'll get relegated. Edited August 27, 2019 by Bob Mahelp 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dons sadly, aren’t the team they have been in recent seasons. It’s going to be a long slog. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodhull Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Another hat-trick for Anderson in the reserves today. Shame he looks so far down the pecking order. I'm guessing he'll be fired out on loan to another championship side at the end of the window? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGarci Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 if May goes out, probably he could be the 3th choise... with minutes but no much... what do you prefer? 3choise or playing everyday this year in championship (maybe till cristhmas and after that we will see 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Well seeing as he's been in form he should be ahead of the likes of Main in the pecking order but because McInnes is set on playing an isolated target man with no support it probably doesn't matter what he does and it could well be another Lawrence Shankland situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodhull Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Two home games against teams not exactly in amazing form coming up. No better chance to try him out (if he's not already loaned out by then). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why all of a sudden do Scottish Football fans assume the best a team outside Glasgow can achieve is 3rd ??? I’d be alarmed if any AFC fan let alone player are hoping for 3rd this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By all means do, my point was that there is decent opposition for 1st and 2nd as scottish football goes this season, after that I see Aberdeen as a cut above the rest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodhull Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 McKenna out 3 to 4 weeks and Taylor flared up his injury again so guessing it'll be Vyner to start at the weekend unless Devlin is good to go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdogunderdog underdog Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Devlin played for the reserves the other day so hopefully he is back in contention for a start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Aye saw that but I think he was taken off at half time so wasn't sure if it was another injury or just being careful with him at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFCDannyFTH Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 https://www.afc.co.uk/2019/08/29/stevie-may-departs-pittodrie/?fbclid=IwAR1lnLHW5xL36WjiWiZoe3R7EwdfIYToQ9AETsfEir2XQAe18pRrX7GFCLo May officially gone. McInnes needs to take a fucking long hard look at himself with this shite. May was never a winger or lone striker and trying to play him as one was idiocy. Letting him go with less than two days of the window remaining and seemingly no replacement lined up is just stupid. Bet the rest of the support are creaming themselves with excitement at the prospect of Curtis Main up front this season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Do we need a replacement for a 4th or 5th choice CF when we play 1 up? I'm hoping he was just bluffing about no plans on bringing anyone in and has somebody with some creativity lined up. I'd be more annoyed if Anderson goes out on loan now and we're left with just Main and Wilson as back ups. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
