Was telling the *** at work that you can't beat the old firm if you don't take your half chances. We did in the 3-3. Didn't at Hampden or Ibrox. Just to piss you off more with my optimism, in the 3-3 we actually missed 2 or 3 decent chances at 2-1 up to kill the game. I was actually gutted not to win, which is a mark of how far we've come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frustrating that we missed out on him and now have a £900k turkey of a right-back barely making our squad. He was decent on loan for us last year, took a while to get going but very good engine and does everything quite well. Would probably be a good signing for anyone except the OF up here 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're reverting to 4-2-3-1 then we probably need a RB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't take the half chances when they arrive then they usually kill the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarapoa Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) Three years out of date now - but the relentless seething anti-McInnes types on social media would appear to have these expectations of how we should be 'punching'. ps we finished second this season Edited December 8, 2020 by tarapoa 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Sad to hear about Willie Young and his diagnosis with Alzheimer's. I'm too young to remember him playing at Aberdeen but recall his Arsenal and Forest spells. My dad raved about him at Aberdeen. What a fucking shite disease, diagnosed last year apparently. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness, it's quite poor from the SG if the communication is as bad as he's making out. I just always get the overriding feeling that he's playing to the gallery a bit and find it a little disingenuous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Grimes Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 I don’t agree with the SG’s decisions on Football, it has been too harsh But the Club need to give it a fucking rest tbh They’re not going to change their minds because we keep moaning on Twitter, looking all a bit tedious now 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Yeah, I don't disagree with the substance of much of what Cormack has been saying for the last few months, but he clearly has an ego the size of Jupiter (mind you, this isn't exactly uncommon among very rich people involved in professional sport). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect Device Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I'm with Cormack here (even if he does love the sound of his own voice). I'd like to see the science that the government is using that is so different to the evidence down south. Like so much of the Scottish government's rule on fighting the pandemic, it doesn't seem to make much sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently calling Cormack out on this shite makes us pitiful, and a disgrace. To be fair also though, as you say those with a brain are not letting the club off lightly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a JRG, no other industry has that, he is without doubt rabble rousing, hoping fans will get up their pitchforks, and they've sure rallied to the cause. All that'll do of course is be counterproductive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like so much of the Scottish government's rule on fighting the pandemic, it doesn't seem to make much sense. It's not, we just don't have a clown in charge, we have serious people, making better decisions. Look, there's a reason they site England, because most countries who were allowing fans back are now reversing that decision, they're just picking the worst case. Would you like the entire pandemic response to be run like Brazil's? It's also completely disingenuous, England are only allowing back in certain tiers, Scotland also allowing back at specific levels, so really we are doing the same. What Cormack should be doing, is banging Lumsden & Laing's heids igither, and telling them to start working in their pandemic response, instead of bleating that things are a bit hard for them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
