[Tord31]

Doubtful: Rooney

 

Lewis

 

Logan O'Connor Reynolds Considine

 

Tansey Shinnie

 

Stewart Christie GMS

 

Maynard

 

Subs: Rogers, Arnason, Wright, McLean, Storey, Harvie, Rooney

Prediction: 1-0 Maynard

[BWG]

1-0. We can't play on their plastic pishness.

[Medw1311]

What's your reasoning for dropping Wright after today's performance Tord?

[Mr Brightside]

Maynard has had his injury problems in the past so can see storey, or a returning Rooney in for this one...

[The Cockney Don]

2-1 win, Wright to play.

[ericblack4boss]

Will get an idea of whether storey features in McInnes plans if he doesn't play him he could be off to a stop him being cup tied.

 

Lewis.

Arnasson. O Connor. Considine.

McLean . tansey.

Logan shinnie wright.

Christie. Maynard.

 

Sub's. Rodgers. Reynolds. GMS. Stockley. Harvie. Stewart.

[dj_bollocks]

I don't think you'd risk a returning Rooney on plastic.... Stockley's not suspended... Sadly...

[King Street Loon]

My money is also on Wright being dropped.

His hammy is taped up to buggery, so have a feeling he won't be risked as a starter. GMS will come in.

Arnason will drop out too.

Ahh in that case then yes makes sense not to risk him on the plastic pitch.

[standfree1978]

I'll be there standing free. Can see Kari getting more game time, he clearly needs minute, further behind fitness wise than the rest which justifies DM for not playing him in Cyprus.

Can see a few more rotated with Dingwall up next.

[super_al]

I would have thought GMS and Stewart were rested today with this game in mind.

[CalgaryDon]

There is an advantage to swapping Wright and Maynard out for Wednesday - Hamilton will have to adapt to us mixing our side up with the inclusion of GMS and Stewart.

 

2-1 Aberdeen (GMS and McLean)

[the_shrimp]

Think we might see Jaden Elbows at this one.

McLean????

 

Lol

[RUL]

Great to see pay at the gate and cheap prices also.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

McLean????

 

Lol

I assumed he meant for their 1 although to be fair that was Reynolds being a tube.

[Dynamo]

Lewis

Logan O'Connor Reynolds Considine

Tansey Shinnie

McLean Christie GMS

Maynard

 

I don't think Wright will play. GMS likely rested after Cyprus. Hamilton at home was the perfect game to bring a youngster in for.

Tin hat on but as good as some of Wrights play was he needs to play a bit smarter. Should also get himself in the gym - brushed off the ball too easily.

Thought there was already a thread for the cup game created...

 

I wouldn't be dropping Wright, boost his confidence level whilst we can instead of parking his arse back on the bench. A few more games on the bounce is what the young lad needs, plus he can do a job.

 

Prediction - 3-1 Dons

 

SF!

Was it Docherty and McInnes that 'beefed up' peepaw at St J? A bit of that required. Or borrow some from Storey.

They had to substitute their right back before he got sent off because he couldn't handle Wright. I'd say he was definitely not brushed off the ball easily.

There were a couple of times in the first half where he was looking for fouls where there weren't any, mainly because he was being outmuscled. Skondras struggled more when he was being ran at, rather than when he was in close quarters when Wright got the ball.

 

He was really good yesterday though, fantastic to see someone coming through the youths that seems to have a bit of skill and flair to them. Hopefully we get to see more of him than the last one (Ryan Fraser).

Agree with this.

[Pudgie]

Anyone any idea if this will be on RedTV international?

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Is there no Ross County tickets for sale yet? Fancied a wee day trip to Tinwall

[Betty Swallicks]

Audio. Waste of time that really.

 

Edit: ditto Ross County on Sat.

 

No idea why those 2 can't do pictures too.

[Betty Swallicks]

Wed night; swap Wright (cotton wool) for GMS and put Rooney (if fit) on the bench.

 

1-3 us.

[standfree1978]

It's a tip of a place but I'll be SF
