Match Thread (Europa League) Nk Siroki Brijeg 0 - 2 Aberdeen (1 - 3 On Agg)

Really good to get through.

 

Can't agree re Premier TV coverage though, better than nothing but the HD picture was brutal and strange replays of nothing incidents missing the ball go from one end of the park to the other.

Oh aye it's shite. Michael Stewart is a good commentator though.

[DD1903]

McIness did say to be patient and it definitely payed off, delighted for Stewart and GMS massive confidence boost! Curious to see if he'll start Arnason next week, absolute credit to all the supporters who travelled over.

'Paid', not 'payed'

To be fair, they'd just taken the stream from the Bosnian TV company.

[Poodler]

What's the buns like for making it through to round three?

That's the local TV company though (who also had a penchant for focussing on jailbait). The sole thing Premier control is the commentary and I thought it was largely decent. Happy that someone is picking it up as neither BT nor Sky seem to be interested.

Fantastic performance all round, no need to for point scoring and no need to try and pick the bones out of the performance. We won a very tricky tie which many weren't confident of doing.

 

Well done AFC

I didna post anything on here last night did I??

Yes. We made progress.

 

*giggle*

How anyone can defend Stockley is beyond me. He has absolutely nothing about him which marks him out as a professional footballer. A 6ft+ spice boy. Slow, zero movement and lazy as fuck. He has nothing going for him and that surely has to be his last meaningful game. As others have posted, an affront.

 

 

Siroki Brijeg did a pretty good job of that.

[alscotoz]

Great result. I enjoy reading the thread without knowing the result ( i ignore the title).

 

The 2 assists were sublime from Christie going on the video.

 

Will go down in history as 'Roberto's Game'...man's a genius!

Another great European night of football last night

Or as Ryan Jack calls it Thursday

Yeah that was a bit odd how they kept focusing on young girls. No arguments about Stewart, he's really supportive of the Scottish game.

Good coverage by Premier Sports. Michael Stewart must surely be the most unbiased commentator in Scotland. He is always 100% spot on. I think he's a closet Dandy

I was really nervous both ahead and during the match for some reason.... more than any other match of late (even cup finals). That was a big big win for us. Go out and it would have cast questions on our 'end of cycle' statement and the signings made to date. But we were fitter and sharper this week and even though the 1st half was cagey, we bided our time, tired them out (which Stockley was surely on the pitch to do) and then unleashed both barrels in the 2nd half.

Very early days for us, and GMS/Stewart/Tansey/Maynard will all improve with game time and as the team get to know them/they get to know their team mates.

Big chance of making play offs.... let's not blow it!

Richard Gordon had a wee dig a greasy Pedro about the cycle statement last night.

As you're the heid bummer at BT I think you should have a word and get the Europa League qualifiers covered as well as the group stages.

Would make sense. They do a good job of promoting the Scottish game yet show no interest in airing our qualifiers. I reckon only the sociedad games made it on to BT.

[BWG]

Hated Stewart as a player but I like him as a pundit.

[fine-n-dandy]

Just watched the goals back and noticed instead of running to GMS, Christie ran straight to Deek after the second goal went in for a massive bosie. Not exactly sure why I love that but I do. The players really play for him it's great.

Maybe you also want a big man/daddy figure bosie fae Deek

It's a bit worrying how easily they got to the near post balls at their corners. They had a couple of decent chances from that.

Hopefully the inclusion of Arnason will cut out dodgey defending like this.

[redstrummer]

Highlights up . Two smart goals , great work from Christie

Love hearing the disappointment (maybe even respect for Christie & co also) in the foreign commentators voice lol

 

Almost as good as when you hear it from home commentators when we score against the arse cheeks

[redstrummer]

Better version

We have to enjoy Christie this season & get the most out of him.

No way in hell will Celtic sell him to us

[360]

Greg Stewart thinks he's too cool for school.

 

I like that about him

[King Street Loon]

On it

Good man.

Make it happen.

I know, real shame that he and Stewart are loans

Stewart will be a Dandy next season though.
