  1. Shinnie ripping two dandy dons there, loved it! Have to say very impressed, just hope we can hold on to this, we deserve nothing less. Brill making a crackin save earlier.
  2. Tuned in just after the goal so haven't even seen it but like what i have seen. Aberdeen have had plenty of corners but have produced very little whereas we are looking dangerous every time we attack. Every other team around us losing too at this stage.
  3. Would be happy with this deal, permanent or just loan.
  4. These players have been offered extensions after they have joined, played and trained for a while. While you're right in what you say, it does represent a risk, i don't think we should worry too much as these lads have been with the club since the summer and have had a chance to show what they can do. If it was longer contracts straight off the bat then i'd worry alot more.
  5. Cant see how County have managed to get Filip Kiss, surely his wages or even a portion of his wages are not in their bracket? Why bother with all the dross in the summer, only to dive bomb their season then splash the cash after it all looks lost?
  6. Personally wont miss Toby, really hoped he would look decent but only ever reminded me of Shane Sutherland and I preferred Shane. We might end up needing two, Billy is a hard target to ignore for any club needing a proven goalscorer.
  7. Unanimous support for Raven to come back in and i totally agree. Really hoped we would have seen him against Celtic. I think Tremarco is doing a solid job where he is and while Shinnie is by far the better player in that position, GS is very versatile and i think he'd do a great job alongside Draper. GS has presence, is great on the ball and has the experience. Christie to start is a bit premature but would like to see him get some playing time over the next few games. Williams playing where he is just now is detrimental to those around him, not to destroy the lad but there far is better options. JH must be seeing an absolute superstar of Williams in training if he is picked in the starting slot there tomorrow.
  8. As a few others have mentioned, we were the better team up until their first goal which came from nowhere. Whether it was or wasn't a pen, it totally changed the game. Our heads went down and they started playing football. It was such a poor reaction to going a goal down, i don't remember them ever threatening or having any chances up until then whereas we had a couple good ones(think Ross hit the post before this happened). So a 22 minute spell of dominance later and i was feeling sick to the stomach. Also couldn't believe people were actually leaving by the time the 4th went in, it wasn't even half time...such a disgraceful attitude and they deserved to miss the second half. Would you not want to see how the players and manager react to such a situation? Second half was great to watch, made it a worthwhile trip out and my gf was just as pleased as she didn't have to put up with my sulking if it had got any worse or stayed the same. Few things for me, the whole team was terrible after we conceded the first but Shinnie and Warren especially. Wasn't that impressed with Toby either but really hoped he could come on and make his mark on the game. Few things for Yogi to think about from this game at least.
  9. Went in here for a couple with a few lads before the game and was fine, no problems and a decent pint. Just would have preferred somewhere with the Man City game on.
  10. First half was pretty dire for both sides but the weather was awful throughout. I didn't think we were ever in any real danger on Saturday though. Thought Ross was a bit Jekyll and Hyde in the first half with some good moments and some bad but very good in the second. Watkins was impressive, quite pleased he is beginning to shine. Billy's goals were lovely, if he had managed that woodwork strike aswell, what a treble that would have been but certainly cant complain with two great goals. Looking forward to the Dons this weekend.
  11. Shinnie at left back, Raven at right back for me. Was Raven was injured for a spell or has the current line up just been preferred? Meekings at right back with Devine in the middle is another option but havent seen this used in a while.
  12. Would be interested to hear how he could have 'dodged a bullet' by coming to us. I can see reasons why a manager wouldn't want to come but definitely no bullet. Care to expand a little?
  13. Might be in his interest to hang around if he is offered the opportunity, given the inevitable interest in Billy in January!
  14. Today was a shambles. Poor coverage of every game and Chick Young on a level of his own. Absolute clown.
  15. Its a sad state of affairs when you are getting barely a snippet of information every 5 mins or so, very poor.
  16. Really cant see him saying what he said if he didnt want or like Hughes as manager. He has not only towed the line in what would probably be expected as captain but he sounds pretty happy about it and goes on to say he was the man the players wanted, he does actually start the interview with a grin on his face. If he didnt want Hughes there he could have just as easily said all the cliche's and left it at that? He goes well beyond that imo. Quite pleased after seeing that.
  17. Would have probably preferred Hartley or Shiels if they were the final 3 candidates but Yogi will have my full support as our new boss. Disagree that he is a bad choice, to inherit this team of ours he will do just fine and is less of a gamble than Hartley imo.
  18. I've had a few mates ask me in recent times if i had any tips on how to get offshore as this and that. Fortunately for me, in my line of work i can actually pop onto the next helicopter because they're short staffed but instead of the rigs im on the diving boats where it can be alot more freelance so it is probably a very different kettle of fish to get into. There are still plenty of slots and longer term positions though. We obviously have kitchen staff and stewards on these vessels too but the problem is now even in the North Sea, some of the positions are filled by Phillipino's. So the only advice i can suggest is to not just look at the Rigs, there are plenty of vessels out there too. Good luck.
  19. Yeah you would have to weigh up his potential goals and contribution to the team versus potential prize money we could miss out on. He has banged the goals in up until now and with the team around him, theres no way they will dry up before the end of the season so it will all come around again im sure. In saying that, i wouldnt be totally upset if we get the money we want for him, how often do we receive such fees? Its painful enough watching our top players going for nout every time their contract expires. Personally hope we dont get one of those offers though as this year and next is clearly our best chance winning anything and getting into europe we will probably have for years and years, lets just see what happens this season with this team if we can keep it together.
  20. Just sounds like even more of a snake when asked about the Rangers - Raith Scenario, which i didnt even realise until i saw his interview. What an absolute arse of a man. Good effort by CJT, made a statement by not taking it on the cheek.
  21. There are def a few worrying names. Would it be so bad to have someone not involved in scottish football? We do have a team here and its not like he would need to make any signings at all until hopefully, at least the end of the season which would give them plenty of time to get up to speed and surely wouldnt try to drastically change how we play. In saying that, the scottish names or those that are familiar with scottish football are definitely better than the ones that arent. Ill take Burley, Levein, Hartley and Sheils etc over the likes of Appleton, Sutton, Larsson and Blackwell any day of the week.
  22. Awesome news, didnt expect to hear this so early and had actually feared that he would leave for Hibs in January or at the end of the season.
  23. Would be happy with Levein or Hartley. I think Levein would be good for the club if you ask me and Hartley like others have said, could be a hidden gem. Does anyone have any idea of Hartsons reputation as a coach? Like the idea of a young high profile manager with good contacts within the game, might be what we need to retain the players we have too. Maybe a bit early for Barry Wilson but def one for the future, same with Sheerin.
