iateallthepies Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Cove are a team on the up and will take some stopping. A slick commercial operation, the ground festooned with adverts and hospitality sold out . Most eye-catching of all an attendance of 880.And most of them Will be back as they were well entertained n a topsy turvy match with a last minute winner. A great strike, but annoyingly he was able to waltz across the front of two defenders without a challenge Tough baptism for the two young Hearts lads, both having to play slightly out of position because of the injury situation. It will take a few more games for the manager to settle on the best team selection and set up, but I'm more optimistic now than I was before Saturday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will take a few more games for the manager to settle on the best team selection and set up, but I'm more optimistic now than I was before Saturday The next 2 games are massive. Really optimistic and hope we can come away with maximum points (make Central Park a fortress) which would be a huge boost for the players. I would love to see the addition of another centre mid, one with a lot of energy and tough tackling, not sure if herd is that type of player not seen enough of him. For me with the exception of miller, I don’t see a much stronger 11 than the one that started on Saturday. Which would also give us brilliant options like Taylor and Allan to come off the bench both of them easily match winners on their day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways agree 100% with the pie eater, Cove on the up and they have the commercial set up to get them up another division at least 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a dig at Cove we all know they have the set up to kick start and move up the leagues. I suppose the City game would have pulled in a few neutrals and groundhopppers who would have been wanting to see their first league game in the SPFL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onecowden Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I know a few Aberdeen fans and one or two go when Aberdeen aren’t playing. If Cove keep doing well I’d imagine they will keep going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game on Saturday and Cove’s previous two games will have been a better watch than the dross Aberdeen have been producing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying I know one or two who have been going. I don’t know any Aberdeen fan who has mentioned the name or the colours of Cove. I do admit though I don’t know all of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although there were 800 there, I only saw a few Cove colours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
