Is that FACT or your opinion?

While I get the sentiment behind the statements, performing well in the league and winning the cup are not mutually exclusive so hopefully McCall can pull another great season out of the bag AND a Scottish cup win. I mean I'll take a league cup win but would rather it was the Scottish cup. Hopefu;;y when it comes around to cup time again the memory of how we exited the cups wil spur the players on so that we don't get any repeat performances in the knockout competitions. Having said the above i'd gladly swap a good season for a decent run in europe by that I mean not just reaching the group stages but actually making it through the group stages.

Feel free to use this thread to post any apologies or retractions to previous posts. This is also intend as a refence to be used prior to posting shite on the message board such that aforementioned shite may be reduced in quantity as it will never get to zero and nor would we want it to get to zero 1. We never win the big games......................Check! Reference result V Aberdeen May 11th 2014 at Pittodrie. Huge game now won ! 2.Every time we take a big away support they let us down.......Check! Reference videos of delighted fans and mega dummy spitting by Dons, dated May 11th 2014 3. We never win on live TV ..... Check! reference references above 4. McCall never get the tactics right.......Check! reference game statistics V ABerdeen at Pittodrie May 11th 2014 5. Reid can't even get a game at Morton he's no use to us.......Check! Reference goal scorer and absence of Peter pawlett in game May 11th at Pittodire 6.

McCall must go............WTF!! that doesn't even need a reference! 8. We never beat a team on a good run/bad run/we're murder........reference games won 22, Points 70 can't quite get to 10 although I am sure there are a few more statements or popular misconceptions out there that could be added. Perhaps some of you punters with more time on their hands might want to post the top 10 most outrageously wrong posts from this past season. I know that some are better are dredging up dirt than others lol COYW Look out Europe, here we come again!

Our 4 draws this year were as below I think....plenty of goals for the fans. Hibs and celtic 3 - 3 DU and Aberdeen 2 - 2

It was said McCall learned form last year and players wil be given deadlne. I hope that deadline hits soon so we can dispense with rumours etc We wil lknwo who we are keeping and can focus on bringing in some players. I find it alot easier to deal with rumours of incoming players rather then outgoing possibilities.

I havn't even gone bak to look wher the free kick happened and wher eit was taken from but I am sure it wuold still ahve ended up in a goal mouth stramash anyway. but i do find it very strange why none of the papers are saying it should ahve been a pnealty anyway. you could just palce that still of Vernon and Hutchy under that back apge headline "why is this not a foul"

Tend to agree with that. They both went up the both contacted they both fell why should it be a foul for the keeper? Not like he remotely had posession of the ball

I hope they can let us know who is going and who is staying, pretty quickly, so that we can enjoy the wait to see who migh join us. I hate the whole indecision thing about who is leaving.

here it is

So why do they keep ignoring the blatant incident right before the langfied incident when te Aberdeen defenderwas doing a horse collar tackle (as its calledkn NFL ) onHutchie? An obvious PK call.

What? You mean you said something before? Sorry , wasn't paying attention.

I don't see the challeng as being a clear cut foul and as stated in other thread ( or shoutbox ) Before the ball got there one of the aberdeen defenders was hauling Hutchinson back by the scruff of the nexk. Great still shot of it in one of the threads. So if they want to go by the book it should ahve been a PK to us.

Nice shot. But probably will be ignored by the sheepies as they continue to whine about the challenge on Langfield. either way we are 2nd!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAS

Is McFadden fit for tomorrow? I assume it will be the same squad as against Caley except for Moore. Who will step in for Moore and if needed for McFadden ?

From the games and highlights I have seen combined with reports I would go for Sutton. As has been mentioned I don't think he has had as good service as Higdon got and to ahve scored 22 goals is a great achievement. Higdon scored some great goals last season but I am can't really recall Sutton scoring any great goals but he has been excellent at just being in the right place at the right time to get the ball in the net. I think that's something you have or you don't and big handsome has got it. COYW Get in about these dons.... hat trick for big John Sutton!

Yep! Hollis Scenario........... took a deflection but he should stil have saved it Randolph scenario......... took a deflection, not his fault.

The Hollis thing is pretty weird. He really has not done much wrong, even our good goalie's made mistakes. However, Hollis just has that look about him or maybe it should be "doesn't" have that look about him. Randy and Ruudy both body language made them look like good keepers and perhaps gave you a feeling of confidence. Hollis just does not look commanding and his body language doen't impart a feeling of confidence to the fans. So i think people are just expecting him to fail but to be fair to him I don't think he has failed.

Nah! That's not 'cause I'm in Texas, it's cause my knees are crap!

I've lived in Texas too long. That sounds ok and hell of a lot better than when I went last which was about 45 years ago LOL had to get up way early in the morning and catch the first bus down to the Hgh street to get on the supporters bus.

I just noticed that today. How long does it take to drive to Aberdeen nowadays?

CONFIRMED

Au contraire! i am pretty sure it's on live here Sunday

As usual probably a whole lot of what if's for all the teams but sticks in my mind is St Mirren They blow it against Utd then do the opposite to us, I didn't see either but it sounds like that incompetant refereeing played a big part in both those results ?

I'm hoping that's confirmed in the next few hours

I'd like to see Moore grab a few goals. He scored that one belter but that's all. I think he has a lot of potential and if he can get another couple of goals under his belt I think he will just get better and better.
