360 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Why? I'd rather see Scott Wright. The sooner Scott Shite leaves Aberdeen the better. Kid has never impressed at all and yet everyone on here thinks he is the next big thing. He wouldn't even get a game at Raith Rovers, he is that bad. Link to comment
Dunty Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 How's the ticket sales going for this? Should have just given Celtic extra tickets. Nothing game for us, and could have been £50,000 extra in the summer transfer kitty. Link to comment

Beat them on Friday night and the Scottish football media will go into meltdown. Win this match and the Aberdeen players will be on cloud nine for the remaining fixtures. Link to comment

Win this match and the Aberdeen players will be on cloud nine for the remaining fixtures.Winning it would be great, but "a huge game", no it's not. And why would the media go into meltdown - more likely they'll make excuses Celtic weren't at full strength and nothing was on the line for them. If it was a huge game it'd be a sell out. I've not checked the ticket sales but we've probably sold more for the cup final than Friday. Link to comment

wicker83 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Cup FridayIbrox We'll beat the new no-marks next season, will take a draa in this game. But would love to end this invincible pish. Lencarl is spot on, this will make a massive impact on both scottish and british media (well, as big in terms of coverage the scottish game gets). We want to attract players from the Championship / League One this summer? Results like beating celtic would help. No-one cares if we beat some pishy new team dressed up as the huns in a meaningless game. And I was at pittodrie for that 0-3 game - worst game I've ever attended. But would still rather stop this unbeaten in the league pish than get revenge on sevco. Link to comment
Clydeside_Sheep Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Win this match and the Aberdeen players will be on cloud nine for the remaining fixtures. I think we might well win this match, and then get absolutely fucked in the final. But then Ive always been an optimist. Link to comment
Shinniesta Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Why? I'd rather see Scott Wright.Because our squad is thin and with second place wrapped up we need to play Christie as much as we can prior to the the final to rest players who are eligible to play in that match. We are potentially without Jack and Pawlett for the final so the last thing we need is either McLean or Shinnie getting injured against Sevco or Patrick while Christie is sat on the bench when he could be replacing one of them for the full duration of those games.

That's priority #1. And Christie can't play so utilise him for 90mins in the games we can. Link to comment

True_Don Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 the league game is important in that, much like in the first round of a boxing match, you gotta land a punch and show your power in order to obtain some respect and get the opponent to think twice about going on an all out attack. We need to hurt Celtic in this game, not necessarily win, a draw would be ok or even a lose if we can score and show attacking threat. If we don't do this, Celtic will go for it in the final without any fear and our defence is not good enough to cope. It's also a shot to nothing (to use a snooker term)...we can experiment, try something different to learn more about potential weaknesses that can be exposed, if it doesn't work and we lose...it's inconsequential to the league position. I believe McInnes will be smart enough to see this as an opportunity to experiment and come up with a master plan for the final! Link to comment
vanderark14 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 unless any of our players are suffering from fatigue, we should play our best to keep them match sharp. Link to comment
craegDAMH Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 We will learn fuck all about the cup final on Friday. There is nothing comparable between playing at home on a smaller, shitey pitch in a game that means fuck all and a cup final on a larger, better pitch in a neutral stadium where our key players tend to disappear. 1 Link to comment

Pudgie Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Are all pitch sizes not exactly the same?Nope. Think there's about 5m in it. I was up for this until I read this thread. Wouldn't be like us to fuck up a "record" or run of theirs at Pittodrie recently. Alas I'll go 1-1 with a drab ending where both teams are happy to just let the game play out. Link to comment
BWG Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Are all pitch sizes not exactly the same? Nah. Look at Killies pitch. You can see the outline of their old one. They've drastically reduced the size of it. Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Us playing out a drab draw to about 86 minutes and then fucking them over would be beyond funny like. A nice controversial penalty for Craig Gordon having the wrong shaped eyebrows would do nicely. Link to comment

BWG Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Preferred lineup for this Mutch Wells Robertson Mbayo Roscoe Ross Antoniazzi Norris Wright McLennan Storey Tell them that for every Celtic player they manage to injur for the final they get a years contract. 2 Link to comment
Lencarl Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 The Sun today: Hayes could have been wearing the Hoops instead — had Rodgers not successfully urged him to join Reading instead. Would be nice to see Hayes score the winner tomorrow night. Link to comment
Rebel Red Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 It's a tough one for us to be honest. Rest some players and risk taking a doing or keep the team as close to full strength as possible? Either way I'd rather we saved ourselves for the cup final and the huns next midweek. Play some fringe players and it gives us a nice excuse if we do take a pasting, can't see it though. 1-3 them.

Lencarl Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Will be interesting to see if Celtic bring their strongest team for this game. They want their unbeaten record to continue. We should field our best 11. The players can rest on their holidays. Link to comment
BWG Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 McInnes today: “It is whether we go with the team we think will start the cup final or whether we go with a team to try to get the job done. Surely they're both the same thing? Or does he plan to win tomorrow and then put out a team that will lose in the cup final? 1 Link to comment

For being wrong about something? This "delete your account" chat is fucking mingin' patter. Gordon is beyond shite at penalties. His record is 3 saved from 36 according to this: https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/craig-gordon/elfmeterstatistik/spieler/12589 Shite 2 Link to comment
