dont think I will be around during today's game so other updates, POY poll etc will follow later

[DonInPeace]

Afternoon all, not at all looking forward to this game tonight, wouldn't matter if it was at Pittodrie or not, because we always seem to struggle against ICT. I know the game will be won by 1 goal, if it's won at all, and I know it will be a hard earned 3 points for whoever take them. Obviously I hope we can continue to push Celtic on as long as possible and I hope we can get a positive start and grab an early goal, or 2, as I believe we are capable of holding on, seem to have developed a great determination to see games out under McInnes if we get in front. 

 

Big Draper always bullies us, every game I've seen him play against us, he literally bosses it. I do think the game will be won from midfield tonight, so need to hope McLean and young Storie get to grips early on. Be disappointed if McInnes drops Storie from the 11 due to Jack & Flood returning. He's came in and went about his business very well, so hope he gets the nod. 

 

Good luck anyway, not too much luck obviously, just good luck. 

 

P.S IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER.....I know, I know, you want me to jog on or just in general get to f*ck.   

[Kingsmills]

Welcome back Donin.....I do think it will be a tricky game for you and we have every chance of interrupting your title challenge. Although I'm not convinced that Yogi's comments on the eve of the match saying that you are unlikely to maintain your title challenge were particularly cleverly timed.

That said, I sincerely hope that you then go on to win the title. Someone other than one of the Bigot brothers winning the league would be the (second) best thing to happen to Scottish football for decades.

Sir William Collum is the referee tonight lads/ladettes - just what we needed. 

[Caley Mad In Berks]

Raven not even on the bench according to BT Sport!  Injured?  Or is there really something in his rumoured fall out with Hughes?

JH said on BT that Raven is injured.

Well at least the patronising sheep has a degree of understanding of his likeability potential - and McInnes comes up with the pre-match comment of "we are 26 points ahead of them so we should win" and a suggestion that we have been lucky in the last two games. Perhaps he is Doninspace - circling Uranus.

[Charles Bannerman]

Power failure in main stand has taken commentary off air for now.

[Charles Bannerman]

Back for the moment.

[bdu98196]

Horner at the back could be a real weak link with raven missing it's a position aberdeen will probably try exploit. Pace of Danny Williams missing too isn't great but let's hope Roberts can perform

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Holes in the nets delays kick off 

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Early days but Tansey really looks up fer this. And Williams JUST stops a Shinnie goal but we get a goal kick. Oh dear - Tansey fluffs the tackle - Devine stands off Rooney !!!

[tm4tj]

Devine never stood off him, he never managed to get to him. Who fecked up the chest down on the half way line.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Vigurs equalises after a terrible mistake by Taylor but tucked it away very sweetly. And thankfully just as Aberdire were looking to dictate.

[davieB]

Good finish Vigurs.

We need to stop all this ***** passing it around at the back. Two or three times now we've nearly messed it up. 

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Tremarco gets in a tackle but foul given and yellow card given. Callum was five yards away and had a perfect view. GTF.

[tm4tj]

wtf is it with us and throw ins, absolutely hopeless at them.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

TANSEY ????

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Nope 

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Final pass from both sides is p1ss poor.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Well we need the mistake and the goal but this is now anybody's.

[davieB]

We've been the better team since the equaliser. Giving them too much space in the middle, we need to get in their faces.

Really impressed with Roberts. Get the ball to him quicker in this half and get him running at them.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Up front I think that we may have it the wrong way round. I would prefer Roberts going wide and keeping Storey central. It looks like Roberts has better ball control and guile whilst Storey is more of a goal scorer. Polworth has been anonymous. Otherwise pass marks all round.

[gingerjaggy]

decent first half. I'm really impressed with storeys movement pulling out wide and Roberts looks lively. We seem to be passing really well but its the final third letting us down. If we continue then we can win this as Aberdeen, a team gunning for the title, have looked very ordinary indeed.
