  1. Has anyone watched Black Mirror? One off episodes with different story lines (mostly surrounding futuristic technology) and some very good casts. Heard it described as a modern day Tales of the Unexpected. Some are rather weird, a couple boring but mostly they have been pretty good.
  2. Afterlife - by Ricky Gervais is really good. Second season is a little feel good but it's well done. Speaking of feel good, we watched Marvellous last night. It's a one off 90 minute TV film type thing. It's absolutely brilliant. A certain Scotsman comes out of it very well. I'm a bit late to the party on Sunderland 'Til I Die - it's really good though. Ozark is also good but runs out of steam a little.
  3. Ash Taylor apparently. Will have been in England (or India) at the weekend.
  4. Dons have offered Hayes a deal. Sounds like there's a short validity period on the offer which suggests we are trying to get him to make a quick decision to join us before the enhanced English offers come piling in. With respect to the McKenna to Celtic rumour - he was slow to come back from injury but did start playing well again next to Taylor. Perhaps a negative but he needs someone decent next to him it would appear - he didn't like playing next to Bates for Scotland. I can't see us taking less than £3m as he will be worth that again when fit.
  5. Has anyone actually said that an independent investigation would be a bad idea?
  6. Reconstruction talks have broken down. Hearts relegated.
  7. "Reasonably good prospect" sounds like about a 60% chance. Unless something is an absolute slam dunk, this as good as you will get from a QC. I have read the main section of the dossier (not the appendices). I assume the appendices contain considerably more compelling evidence somewhere?!
  8. I don't disagree. I think we played 64 games in one particularly busy season. Included about 10 games in the Scottish Cup alone.
  9. I'm finding it difficult to see how 2 teams are going to play 11 games in 3 weeks. That's a game every other day.
  10. Apologies if this has been mentioned already. Teams have been instructed by SPFL to start training on 11 May. Games to be played behind closed doors starting 10 June. Games will be televised on Sky, BBC and BT Sport. 9 league games and cup games to be played in 3 weeks. Season will then finish giving teams 2 weeks off before starting pre-season again. (England starting 1 June)
  11. Quite an extraordinary decision. I can only assume that our Compliance Officer has been on the end of a car brakes tampering threat.
  12. I'm fairly sure you won''t see the irony in that post?!
  13. I agree with you. Traynor is making Rangers an absolute laughing stock. Someone at Rangers must realise this? It's almost like the club has nothing to lose.
  14. Aye, that would swing it for me. Canna be doing with dodgy haircuts. I really liked Stewart. Too much of a football player for McInnes though and probably not enough of the headless chicken defensive winger type that he likes..
  15. I'm a bit surprised that Barker is going before Stewart is. Suspect that comes down to a signing v loan signing and wages.
  16. Aberdeen won't finish in the top six unless there's a material change. Absolutely no footballing identity, no style, no pace, no urgency, no tempo. We are horrific to watch. Gallagher's inclusion last night must be contractual? There's no other plausible justification for him playing 90 minutes (or being in the squad for that matter). I actually think McInnes might have lost the players as none of them seem to be trying for him. Hoof, hoof, hoof. St Mirren should be rubbing their hands at the prospect of Sunday. If they're in any way ambitious they will win.
  17. Dons rumoured to be trying to get Tommy to accept a deal to swap Devlin for Kennedy now.
  18. I thought the naming of Cormack Park was tawdry and I do not think a club chairman should be coming out with this type of comment. I’m still far from convinced by Cormack. That said, he’s absolutely right and it’s quite refreshing to see this cheating shit being challenged. It’s not just about this particular incident.
  19. Didn't think it was a red. Brown's reaction got Cosgrove sent off. The ref was under pressure - he let a close penalty call go in Aberdeen's favour in the first half. There was always going to be a dreadful decision to redress the balance. Ajer appears to be the new Lustig. Clear dive and he winked at Consgrove afterwards. Not sure it changes the result but that is completely irrelevant. Very weak refereeing.
  20. Between this and Steven O'Donnell coming to the Dons i hope SH's Xmas will be ok.
  21. He wasn't very clever for our first goal and he was completely lost for the corner at which Cosgrove should have scored. I just think he's just beginning to look like an accident waiting to happen. If it isn't an error, he'll lose you a big game by getting sent off for being an utterly despicable khunt.
