  1. Most important thing is we keep up a consistent level of performance to give us momentum into March. A point would be good, three would be excellent, none would be likely.
  2. Terrific player, but needed a little work on his near post covering.
  3. O'Hara for me too. After his long absence it's like having a new signing in the team.
  4. Also saw Allan "the hitman" Campbell was on the scoresheet again today with another belter from outside the box - followed by a yellow card shortly after for a "bad foul".
  5. After having some first team starts I noticed Moult hasn't even been in the Burton Albion squad the last couple of games. Turns out he was sidelined due to vertigo! Although he is back in training now.
  6. Thoughts and votes for the "Haven't Won a League Game in 2022 Derby"
  7. Hope the camera man finds his filter soon.
  8. Another good example of coaching and game time improving a player. Patience, eh? It will never catch on.
  9. Joe Wark had all the attributes of a modern left back with his ability to break forward and pick out a cross. He also had all the attributes of an old school left back with his precision and timing of his tackling. Was a pleasure to watch all those years.

    Alexander.

    There's a school of thought, which I tend to agree with, that managers get a much better view of the game from the stand than they do from the touchline and can be more effective from there. I'm not sure it has that much of an impact overall.
  11. McGhee's biggest problem is he never lets a thought go unspoken. I agree he did a decent job for us most of the time. He rightly took flak for saying he wanted the Celtic job shortly after he joined us. He repeated that thought shortly after joining Aberdeen - which is either stupidity or ego. It made his press conferences interesting, though.
  12. Craig Brown - "I only talked to Aberdeen as a courtesy" Terry Butcher - "I only went to Australia for a holiday" EDIT: I'll add that I have some sympathy with managers when they are wheeled out the press to answer their often stupid questions in the immediate aftermath of a defeat. I don't have any sympathy when players and managers lie about their intentions to move on and peddle the pork pies. It makes them look like they think fans are idiots.

    Alexander.

    I thought Cole, Long and Watt were all on at the end of the 90 and played for the duration of ET in that one.
  14. Agree. And you can add to that the fact he won promotion as the Championship team in the play-off, which is a rarity. The very least they owed him was his chance to consolidate in the Premiership his first season back.
  15. Mark McGhee the new "surprise favourite" for the Dundee job. He must be needing the air miles.
  16. The biggest challenge is playing the same team in consecutive games. That's never easy as the opponents have fresh experience of how you are playing. So you have to decide if you are going the same again in the belief it's enough to win or change it up for variation and risk the changes are not as effective.
  17. There speaks a man of hard earned experience.
  18. Must be a favourite for the Aberdeen job now.
  19. The winner of the Forfar tie drew Rangers at Ibrox the next round. We wouldn't have won that.
  20. Same reason as anyone would shake van Veen's hand after he's spent 90 minutes winding them up?
  21. I hope we beat them so heavily they sack their interim manager.
  22. He said the same thing about Brown the last time we beat them, so that was the "motivated" version we played against on Saturday..
  23. After his goal celebration, I hope.
  24. Aberdeen have a mini goalkeeping crisis - which is why they have ended up signing Craig Samson in an emergency coach/backup keeper situation. So right now, they get to choose Woods or Samson.
