I'd bite your hand off for a 0-0 right now. Sad times. This usually means the exact opposite! We've been in too good form of late so I'm expecting the wheels to come off at some point. Suppose I'd rather it was tomorrow night than Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't an attempt at reverse psychology or expectation management by me, we are genuinely a bit shit at the moment. If you score early it will be a stroll. The only thing McInnes could try is to play two up front and he just won't do that (he wouldn't do it at home to St Mirren (no disrespect intended) on Saturday) Edited December 3, 2019 by SMcoolJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr mojo risin Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 2 hours ago, SMcoolJ said: St Mirren were better than Aberdeen on Saturday. Played some really good football. They should feel completely aggrieved at not taking all 3 points let alone a draw. McInnes continues to make backing him very difficult. The selections of Campbell and Gallagher (the latter of which played 90 minutes) were just absolute nonsense. Fair enough we've got £13k a week of midfielders in the treatment room (that's another issue altogether) but surely anyone can see those two just aren't good enough. Wednesday night will not be pretty for any Dons fan. Absolute humping on the cards. I'd bite your hand off for a 0-0 right now. Sad times. I thought Campbell was OK but yes, even if everyone was fit we'd lose tomorrow. However hardly any midfielders are fit, and it's hard to tell what formation we're playing a lot of the time, so sadly this will be a humping. We'll be lucky to cling onto 4th, let alone 3rd, by New Year when you see our fixture list this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that often when we go in to games where we're expected to win and in good form the wheels tend to come off. Suppose it's just the eternal pessimist in me! Pittodrie is always a tough place to go and regardless of form we rarely get it easy so I'll be expecting a tough game. I'd gladly take a 0-1 right now.

Heard a few reports that they are playing well, but not getting results, and are due a bit of luck. Hopefully the luck/results don’t kick in until the weekend. Chance for Motherwell to go 3rd if we win and Aberdeen lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jailender Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 The problem is that outside Scotland, 9and in Scotland as well), there really isn't much of an audience for Scottish football, apart from the ugly sisters.That's not going to change soon.

As much as we might mock the attendance at Livi v Hamilton last week, a fortnight ago you had a big Union Jack at the tony macaroni with Livi Loyal on it. Probably belting out “what a shitey home support” between UVF songs without a hint of irony. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
