giblet Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Really looking forward to tonight’s game. The split has again shown it’s a good idea. Hearts at 10/3 tonight for all those who can be tempted to bet on the hoof ballers of Swynie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slasher Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Absolutely terrible game with two teams who spent the night blootering the ball and each other about. Other observations; it was never a penalty, GMS is a waste of space in a game like that. Admittedly I haven't seen much of Christie lately but on last night's evidence he won't be at Celtic next season. If Hibs win tonight I think they will get 2nd place...... on what I've seen this season they are easily the best football side of the three.

Parklife Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Such a frustrating evening. An excellent display from 10-45 minutes, then an absolutely pathetic 2nd half. Fuck knows what went on at half-time but that 2nd half was embarrassing. Why he didn't switch GMS to go up vs Halliday, i'll never know. To have taken 1 point in 4 games vs Rangers is pathetic. Far too much respect shown to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RenfrewBlue Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Overall a better outcome than I expected but tough to take when Aberdeen are given a goal start by the officials. We are awful which means as long as Hibs win tonight they've got 2nd sewn up. Aberdeen, on that showing, will get murdered by Celtic. Morellos is not a lone striker so if we are going to play that way we'd be as well getting rid. Still can't understand how the ref thinks that is a penalty. Morellos clearly plays the ball and MacLean runs into him. Nothing about it is a foul. It just gives another example of how bad our officials are. At full speed on the first viewing I knew what had happened and as the camera wasnt zoomed in I had a much worse view than the ref who was less than 10 yards away. Anyway, I think that secures 4th for us and hopefully no European football next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been in a relegation fight all season, despite the fact he was allowed to sign enough players to field his own team, and have his own subs. Add to the fact that our strikers are the worst in the league, our midfield is powderpuff, and our defence has been woefully inept, despite having 6 centre backs. The style of football is pathetic, we have lost countless goals by trying to play shitty short passes at all times, including from goal kicks, which usually leads to pressure being put straight back on us. He has somehow convinced these uber happy DFC fans that things are going well. His media appearances are laughable, he never takes responsibility for anything. I’m sick hearing about how well his boys have played, and how things went to plan, and how they did exactly as he wanted them to do, apart from the bloody obvious like don’t concede goals, and maybe score some ourselves. Lets add in the fact that last seasons best player was Kerr, a decent attacking right back, who McCann decides to play left wing. Or we have Caulker playing right back, while Kerr is on the bench, or Kusunga playing left back while we have two left backs on the bench. We have the semi retired O’Hara playing every week while he morphs into the footballing equivalent of where’s Waldo, the only time anyone ever finds him is against Rangers, then he hides for the next couple of month. He is a smarter version of Hartley, he certainly isn’t a better manager, and by fuck I wasn’t a fan of Hartley by any stretch of the imagination.

That's just not accurate at all though. Both players play the ball. "Playing the ball" doesn't = no foul. Morelos and McLean both play the ball, then McLean is caught by Morelos. I'd say it was on the soft side, probably a 50:50 decision. Can see why it was given but can also see how Rangers may feel aggrieved. Perhaps in the same way that Aberdeen fans will feel aggrieved that no Rangers player received a red card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the direction the ball went, I can absolutely see why McLean thought it was a foul. It was, as you say, fairly soft on replay though.

SMcoolJ Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 We needed to score a second in the first half when we had them on the rack to have won that game. Not sure what happened to us in the second half. Draw probably a fair result in the end but we missed another oppontunity. Why GMS didn't go up against Halliday who had been booked and is absolutely shocking I will never know. Well, actually I suspect I do know, it's because McInnes was more worried about the threat of Tavernier going forward and wanted GMS to track back - again too defensive in his mind set. We are relying on a 19yo kid up front because our other forwards are completely ineffective. Fair play to Cosgrove, he's just about done more in two games than any other forward at the club has done all season. Mass clear out and rebuild coming for us in the summer - and I'm looking forward to it. We haven't played much football this season and in failing to beat both Hibs and Rangers at home, we don't really deserve second. McRorie is a decent player.

He's been exactly the player that most Aberdeen fans knew he could be. If he'd been this good for his time with us, he'd have been old for many multiples of the fee we did get for him. It's very frustrating to me that he's not produced this form before now but the 2018 version of Kenny McLean is one we'll miss very much. The 2015-2017 version wouldn't have been missed IMO.

There were a few tasty tackles but Holts was by far the worst imo. At full speed and totally out of control, should have been a straight red.

Largely because he had obvious ability but had no heart, appeared to make little effort and was a complete and utter waste of a jersey for many games. He'd shown flashes of acceptability over his earlier tenure. However, since signing for Norwich, he's been outstanding and probably our best player. We'll really miss him next season on the form he's shown over the last 6 months and in flashes previously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just prior to that there were a few fouls or cards that you could tell he was responding to either pressure from players or the crowd (both sides) rather than making the decision himself. It was a really incompetent performance all round from the ref. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
