This season has been a bit of a car crash from the beginning. The first home game had a great atmosphere and buzz about it, as did our play. Then Astra scored. Since then we have struggled to create anything. Our signings, and let's give yogi the curtousy of considering otherwise, have been dreadful by in large. Nobody scouted at the end of last season except wedderburn. Everyone else has come via a trial or from his distant memory. Except vigurs of course who we happened to find in the gym. It really is shake your head stuff. i certainly wasn't expecting the highs of last season but we should still have had enough to be well clear of relegation. Forget about top 6 now. Let's just win a couple of games and get some breathing space between ourselves and killie . Also forget about trying to be pretty now. We've been found out. Press our players and then we're clueless. i said to someone after a few games and all the injuries, that this season is just a write off. Bar a few games it has just been a season of utter frustration on and off the park. lets get our heads down and battle for a win on saturday

Genuine huge ICT fan. Hopefully either the club or fans can do something to mark Ross sadly passing away.

It's a lot more than 10 points
-
Frustrating as it sounds like we were worth at least a point. If we can play like we have in the last 2 games for the rest of the season, we'll finish top 6.
-
Ah, So that's the reason you want all our players then. That's enough replying to your nonsense from me. Goodbye Diddy.
-
Rightly you say Celtic are 'gash' , yet you still have less points and have played more games. If they are so terrible then going based purely on facts, Aberdeen must be worse. Dig out your videos from the 80's and cheer yourself up. maybe next season you could dream about a glamour trip to the league cup semis. That'd be a good season for you boys now.
-
Fact is mate, you still lost and that's your season over yet again. The smoke drifting over the pitch in the second half was your title hopes.1 league cup in 20 years for 'Giants' like Aberdeen. Not great is it. Or has that all been because of refereeing mistakes too? Your team barely created a chance last night and were beaten very comfortably by a side in the bottom 6. Its not all bad news though, if you put a run together you might just hold onto 2nd

I don't often post 'I have on good authority' but in this case I have a very good source. Ofere in the summer didn't just want a significant wage rise. He wanted a lot more besides money. I'm speculating on this last bit, but I'm guessing thats why he keeps moving on and nobody is offering him what he wants.

Ofere was never coming here. His demands were beyond ludicrous.

I agree that we don't come out of this looking good. But I believe Aberdeen perhaps should have shown us more respect. Not content with taking Shinnie, then failed attempts for Watkins and Draper. They have had the entire month of January to complete a deal for Tansey but waited till 12 hours before the window shut to put in an offer. In full knowledge we wouldn't have time to adequately replace him. I think we were more than dignified last summer with our captain/best player leaving to join them, our direct rivals, for free. Reading between the lines we've thrown our toys from the pram this time. But I do believe Aberdeen have shown a lack of respect to us with the very poor timing of the offer.

Nail on the head.

We do not come off this looking good it has to be said. Arguably one of our best players doesn't want to be here and it sounds like we've thrown our toys out the pram because it's Aberdeen, yet again, wanting our players. Who don't they want from us though? Watkins turned them down and draper was linked a month or so ago. This is highlighting a real problem for me now. Why should we have to keep losing our best players to teams in the same league for free and ridiculously low fees? It's been happening for 15 years now. It's not a sport anymore, it's all about what business can generate the most money. With Bosman coming in as well, it means the big clubs can basically steal little teams, like ours, best players without compensation. I'm not saying that the players should be on Jim Maclean style contacts but something needs to protect the club as well. It shouldn't be right that our captain leaves the club for nothing and joins our direct rivals who only finished a handful of points ahead of us. He's probably worth damn near a million for Aberdeen now.

Don't relax just yet. Apparently sfa are mediating between Aberdeen and us. Deal for Tansey not dead yet sadly.
-
i tell you what is cringeworthy, someone battering someone else down all the time. I don't agree with 99% of what he says but I just scroll past. Maybe you could do the same?

I think Stokes' attitude would quite possibly be stinking if he did sign for us anyway. Us being such a wee Diddy team and all. Better he move to media myth peddled big teams like Utd and hibs.
-
End it before it ends me!
-
We'd up their with Aberdeen and hearts if we hadn't thrown away so many points. Arguably about 20
-
I'd be surprised if he's not with us for the whole season. I can't see how it benefits Celtic for him to be hanging about waiting to get an opportunity in the first team when he could be playing 1st team football. I think its fairly routine for players to return to parent clubs for treatment during loan deals. Celtic also have Lennoxtown which I dare say is slightly better than our training/medical facilities.

Were they St Johnstone fans?
-
No lucky goal for st Johnstone, fully deserved win. We looked lethargic and barely interested from the start. Appalling performance, don't think we had a shot on target bar a left footed effort from David raven in the first Half. Well worth the round of applause running off at the end.
-
spot on by the looks of things. Purely money motivated if he does go. But let's get this clear Dundee united are not a big club and never ever will be. The frustration as always is that he won't be able to do anything more there than he is here. On the pitch we're a better club and have been for the last few years. We'll get someone else though, till they do a good enough job at wee Inverness then off to the big boys like Dundee and hibs.
-
In my opinion, as good as Aberdeen fans think he has been I think they've been playing him out of position. He's much more effective at left back than where they've been using him at defensive midfield. He was absolutley bossed on Saturday in the first half and looked their best player in the 2nd when he moved to left back in place if that total donkey considine.

The sending off is very similar to an incident involving grant Munro and Chris McGuire a few seasons ago. We were hard done by there and by the letter of the law Munro was off. Same thing last night. That said in the last home game there was a 100% certain red card for Christian Nade and he got away with it. So swings and roundabouts
