I don’t have much knowledge of Aberdeen other than that they are our bitches. well that is just a bare faced lie... he steadied the ship under a well run club with a good youth policy, he won f**k all and jumped ship at the first sign of a decent pay cheque -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were very good for McInnes - not many clubs would’ve given a pretty rubbish player a chance to be manager like we did with McInnes - but he was very good for us too. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Absolutely class goal by the way, love that you can see Ali think "oo theres space here" as he bursts a gut to get forward, perfectly weighted through-ball from (who else) big Liam Craig and then McCann takes one touch to give himself a bit of time and then one effortless drink over the keeper. Lets enjoy him while he's here lads. If he'd been a United player they'd have sold him to Millwall or Luton by now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Love that Liam Craig has barely played all season then comes back in and starts playing absolutely brilliant balls forward like that one. McCann is just brilliant as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An absolutely superb season for him and his new contract is looking like a masterstroke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irrational Behaviour Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 You've got to hand it to Tommy Wright. He knows exactly what do against us. Far superior manager tactically. Think St Johnstone are going to stay up which is good for the league. The less said ahout us the better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the budget of Hearts and Hibs and their performance... I know that not everyone agrees with my philosophy on football, ie end result is 90% of what matters, and supporting a team like St Johnstone and supporting Aberdeen means having different expectations, but I am surprised to see such hostility to Aberdeen’s most successful manager in thirty years.* Does he have any support left? He didn't have a lot of opposition, did he? Roy Aitken also won the League Cup. * 29 years actually, In 1989/90 Jocky Scott & Alex Smith won the cup double.

Radford Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 (edited) Since a lot of Saints fans didn't manage to get the stream working, I'll give my thoughts. We started really well and passed the ball about beautifully. Quick, accurate passing that was cutting them open and getting our attacking players isolating their defenders. The goal was lovely, the patience then timing and pace of the ball by Craig did so much of the work and Tommy Wright's man made it look so, so simple. He also absolutely crunched Kennedy at one point in the second half. What a man. We kept at it following the goal but lost something when O'Halloran went off and by the end of the half were hanging on, without Clark ever been overly stretched. We didn't come close to passing the ball nearly well enough in the second half and it made it hard for May to get a sniff but the team worked and pressed really well; what a shift Jason Holt put in. Aberdeen were so poor though that they couldn't make anything of all their possession. Clark made one save from a ball into the box from a free-kick that created a scramble and then they hit they post when we gave away a silly foul late on. Other than that, nothing at all. No attempt to break the lines with passes, instead just sideways and backwards, sideways and backwards. Brutal to watch. The new right back looked like he'd bought his own kit. Getting to the stage where every point will be a decent one, what a turnaround from that full-time whistle in Paisley.

Vancouver_Don Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 After seeing the players reactions at the end of the game I'm no longer pessimistic about the remainder of this SPL season. The players looked frustrated and defeated last night however I think we'll see the team go on a run starting with a win against Killie (2-0). Last night was needed and was the catalyst for our season. I think we'll finish third now and reach the Scottish cup final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
