The Perth Saints v The Famous Aberdeen

Its about time we discussed this nonsensical second star on Aberdeen's crest. The second star for an invitational friendly is stolen valour.

You are not invited to compete for the super cup you qualify to play in it.

Hope you get pumped in the play off

I think once of the biggest reasons we looked better last night was getting Hallberg higher up the pitch where he can use his running and size to get beyond players. He's much more effective there than being pushed wide, as it allows him the freedom to find gaps. The fact that we've persisted with Crawford and MacPherson there is even more infuriating, given how much more comfortable he looked. It also allowed Hendry and Middleton to press more from the front, as Hallberg is very good at the pressing side of the game. As a result we looked better back to front and more like the saints of old. Sure we've still got scoring issues and the system needs to be sorted, but there's signs that some of the players can still flourish. 

That being said, it took a mysterious injury for it to happen, so it's not like we can even credit the manager for the decision. It was pure luck on his part, but hopefully he learns from it.

The point still stands that the super cup was/ is the equivalent of the charity shield down south, and to put a star on your shirt for that is embarrassing.

Is that why you don't have a star on your shirt for it? 

Good to see standards being maintained by the agricultural community.

It's a pre season friendly. Stolen valour and a minter to put it on your shirt.

Haha, state of you.

Ps. It was a two legged tie played across November and December back then. Thank you.

It's strange how rattled other clubs' fans get about this.  If it was good enough for Gaetano Scirea, it was good enough for us. I have a wee worry that Sevco could equal our two European honours achievement in August - but suspect overcoming the European champions would be a step too far for them.

Fans of non old firm teams can play this down as they know there isn't a hope in hell of having to backtrack if their team qualified for it

A pre season friendly played in December?

Enjoy the Championship, your agricultural style will be enthralling there.

Now were on the subject, is the Cup Winners Cup considered a major? Starting to question the entire thing tbh. Shameful from AFC.

Merged with the uefa cup to form the europa league.

The way uefa ruined 3 good tournaments for the boring greed is good champions league is shameful.

You got in it for winning the Cup.

St Johnstone fans keep telling us that's a major achievement.
