Some people could have been confused, but thankfully you were here to enter this discussion about our new Technical Director - which some might have thought had nothing at all to do with Aberdeen - to put us right. Facts are facts. Just because you don't like them doesn't mean you have to indulge in sarcasm. Calm down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careful I think the Hearts poster you have responded too has conveniently forgotten that one. Ask him what its like being relegated and playing in the diddy leagues. With more relegations than finishes above Aberdeen in the past decade he should know! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the small Ayrshire town of Darvel, population 3,361. It was the worst and most embarrassing result in our entire history. And yet Hearts still couldn't finish above us in the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I’m not 100% sold on him either. However, I’m sure you’ll agree he was appointed under much less amusing circumstances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask him what its like being relegated and playing in the diddy leagues. With more relegations than finishes above Aberdeen in the past decade he should know! I was having a bit of fun in response to some of the back and forth, including the ludicrous claim that two of Hearts league titles were somehow devalued because they were won before Aberdeen were formed. Aberdeen's ECWC triumph happened before many current Aberdeen fans were born. Does that make it worthless? Hearts weren't in the ECWC that season so Aberdeen's win was clearly unimpressive? Also, the gap between Hearts in the Championship in 2021 and Highland League Brora is substantially smaller than the gap between Aberdeen in the Premiership and Darvel of the sixth tier.

Given Aberdeen are such a relentless trophy-winning machine you'd have to assume they'd have hoovered those up if they'd been around. Luckily for them the same logic apparently doesn't apply to Livi or Caley Thistle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
