Confused by this comment. Did you not see all the Darvel players holding mobile phones and making videos of their celebrations after beating Aberdeen 1-0 the other night. If they’ve got the technology in Darvel you can be sure we’ve got it in Kilmarnock. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The personnel is better now, imo. Completely agree, I hated last seasons team more than any other I can remember. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I felt gutted after losing the league cup replay to Utd in 79 as we had beaten both of the Old Firm en route and was sure this would be the first trophy I would see us win. (I was too young to fully remember 76). Then when Hamburg put us out of Europe after we had destroyed them in the first leg I remember the ribbing I got at school the next day. At least in those days I felt that the team had done their best and we still went into a season expecting to win something and regularly beat Glasgows finest home and away. I was overseas when Stenny beat us but we had beaten Rangers the previous week so felt that was just a freak result. Watching the game on Monday night was embarrassing, the team was second best in nearly every department on the pitch. No one seemed to be showing any leadership. Every player should hang their heads low and be made to apologise to the fans for such a performance. My feelings, too. 60 years I've followed the Dons, never expected too much, as it was 7 years since they had won anything when I started supporting them. Cup win in 1970 after the defeat 3 years earlier, should have won the league the following season (home form let us down, as opposed to this season's away form), then the League Cup win in 1976, followed by the glorious 80s and then basically shite for the last 28 years, feel sorry for anybody who started following them in the late 90s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What generation is the club living in? The 80s perhaps? Maybe they’ve faxed a press release to News Corp or something similar, even sent an old fashioned letter. Don't give up your day job.

If that was taken today, no idea how you can tell, I would imagine that he’s gone and just waiting on the official announcement.

Some people react to a crisis by changing things up, others try to keep a level of normality. If it's their day off, it's their day off. Maybe a day to clear the head. Hearts used to have Wednesdays off for sure, but I think it's been binned a while back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DrewDon Posted January 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2023 Weird behaviour to record someone going about his own business on his day off. He will know that he is almost certainly about to lose his job, and presumably wants to be with his family in Glasgow rather than moping around on his own in Aberdeen. 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
