But there's more to the gut feel Ross County - Expected to see Kettlewell back Aberdeen - expected us to get the hardest non-OF team left. Hopefully I can get another shot next round. Partick Thistle at home in the next round! 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

postiejim Posted Sunday at 08:09 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 08:09 PM When we won the cup in 91 Aberdeen were the cup holders . We went up there and beat them…….the rest is history. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinjy Posted Sunday at 08:20 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 08:20 PM It was a shite draw . There was a 50per cent chance we could ha.ve got Kelty, Elgin, Stenny or Spartans 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted Monday at 01:07 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 01:07 PM I'm a bit late to this particular party I know, but I was surprised by the state of the pitch last Saturday. The POD Stand side looked a bit on the bare side. I know we've ahd far worse, but we've also had much better. The winter so far, hasn't been that bad, so it seems a bit odd. In previous years, we've hired UV growing lights in winter to boost growth. By Scottish standards we've got a state of the art pitch and spent a wad of cash on it so why the problems?

Biggest problem has been the weather I would imagine. I don't know if we still have UV lights, but my recollection is that we only used them on the penalty boxes. Have we had to use the undersoil heating at any point? That is normally a contributor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At half time i went down near the pitch-side in the POD and there seemed to be quite a lot of frost on various sections. It was definitely the worst it's been for a while.

Be lucky to get home for 2 in the morning. Certainly won’t be taking my son up there. Pricing is away to pot as well. £23 and £18 for a concession. Typical Aberdeen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I'm seeing £18 for over 65s, £12 for under 18s and £6 for under 12s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Putting pricing aside, it’s a fair distance from Motherwell to Aberdeen and back, so a 7.30pm Saturday KO is utterly ridiculous for fans and will guarantee low ticket sales. The people running our game are morons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
