After four games without a defeat, they might not have survived another. Since we won at Ibrox we've played five games and been in the lead for a single minute when Moses scored at Dundee. We haven't kept a single clean sheet and have conceded goals from being unable to defend corners in every game. We've scored 5 goals with the earliest one being at 74 minutes. We were hardly in good form before today. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 It was disappointing, but entirely expected, not take something from the game. It was always going to be a huge ask. Very disappointing too to lose Vale to a red card but again you expect that kind of incident at Pittodrie. I'm more concerned at his absence next week. Results elsewhere really went in our favour to make it a decent day. The games at Livingston and Perth were always going to be more important for us today than our own game.

Stuwell2 Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 4 hours ago, Stuwell2 said: My point earlier was that it looked like they were desperate to give Aberdeen something - fully expect the red card decision to be slated on sportscene tonight and possibly the red being reduced on appeal. Not that any of that counts for anything. Part one of my prediction done, ref and VAR slated on sportscene. Also liked SK and pundits slagging them off saying anyone who’s played football knows that’s never a red card - wasn’t even a foul so no free kick, no corner, no goal. I hope the club send a letter of protest in against both the referee and VAR guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

couttsy Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 Didn’t make it up to Aberdeen yesterday (thankfully by the sounds of things). Just watched the highlights, no surprise after what Kettlewell said, it’s never a red card! How the refs not sent to watch that on the monitor I’ll never know, peak Scottish referees. Don't get the grief Kelly is getting on some forums, no chance with the goal and then looked like he went on to make 2/3 really good saves. Blaney could and should do better for the goal, but it’s a good header to be fair to Garterman. We are going to be safe, but it would be good to win next week and put it to bed asap.

Kmcalpin Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 Just watched the TV highlights. A few points stood out for me. * Vale playing behind Bair again in midfield. At least that won't happen next week. Another striker will be playing in midfield. No need to sign many more sr trikers in the summer just sign more midfielders! * Kelly flapping at a cross again. * Never a red card. As Handsome Devil says on P & B, no intent, wins the ball, no excessive force, and Aberdeen player comes in late. A yellow card. Aberdeen certainly seem to have the Indian sign over us with referees, don't they. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberdeen certainly seem to have the Indian sign over us with referees, don't they. It baffles me that Kettlewell can't see what the fans see every week regarding Vale. He's a striker; play him beside Bair. It's that simple. Although I bet he starts Nicholson instead of Moses next week. It's time for a new keeper next season. For a team like ours, I’d rather have a big commanding keeper than a smaller shot-stopper. I'm pleased to see that Kettlewell isn't afraid to call out the officials on this incident. However, it’s a shame he's not as quick to learn from his own persistent failings, as perhaps that would give some indication that he's capable of implementing effective changes across the piece. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Vale that has been my main gripe for weeks. He is a striker so why are we playing him in deeper role? Bair is isolated on his own. I also agree that guaranteed he starts Nicholson but I would hope he started in place of Spittal and we bring Moses in for Vale. Or bring Shaw in for Vale......cueeeeeeeee......ba.......boom....🤣🤣🤣 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, everyones entitled to their view but when it's constant and never ending criticism something that's a minor irritant eventually becomes really annoying so I can understand why people rise to the bait.

If it's not breaking the site rules then it will stay up. People can report posts they aren't happy with I personally don't think debating that post is helpful either. There's plenty of posts on here I've thought have been over the top over the last while. Other people will disagree.
