Doncomitant Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Next season will be the real test for McInnes. He will have a full season of the Huns, Hearts & Hibs at a stronger level of competition than what he has had to now. We will still only have a half strength Utd, if at all but a full season of the other three sides all with a decent & realistic chance of competing with us for second will be the real test for him. If he manages second next season he will have achieved more than in any of the previous seasons second places. This season also to an extent but next season will be tougher. Link to comment

Doncomitant Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 In saying next season will be his toughest test. I actually think he will bottle it & fuck off to pastures new while he still can.Leaving someone else to deal with the tougher test. making him look better than he was when they finish below second Link to comment
Panda Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 can't I make more than one point without them having to be directly linked? I also didn't say that we only finished second because blah blah. What I actually implied was that we only finished second so consistently because over the period we were facing a far weaker combination of opponents, so I just agreed with Laszlo. We very wel could have finished second at one time if all the cards fell well if all the better teams were up there challenging but we wouldn't have done it 3 or 4 years running. If you really believe that the team we have is so great. Why have we only won a LC whilst being so dominant over all? I never said we were great, I was arguing about your point that we only finished 2nd because of no Rangers, Hearts or Hibs. Cup wins are irrelevant. Even Celtic have had their fair share of cup defeats to teams they should be putting away. Next season will be the real test for McInnes. He will have a full season of the Huns, Hearts & Hibs at a stronger level of competition than what he has had to now. We will still only have a half strength Utd, if at all but a full season of the other three sides all with a decent & realistic chance of competing with us for second will be the real test for him. If he manages second next season he will have achieved more than in any of the previous seasons second places. This season also to an extent but next season will be tougher. How do you know? All three could be weaker next season. Two seasons ago was supposed to be the real test for McInnes, then it was last season, then it was this season. Now it's next season apparently. Link to comment
DD1903 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 He's Canadian.Explains it all now.Exactly what I thought I wonder if @@Sonoftherock could confirm if he part of THE Canadian family Link to comment
Clydeside_Sheep Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Take a bow Lads. Fucking brilliant posts. Yes there were very good posts. European football isn't about football anymore, but about money. All the romance has been squeezed out of it and I pity young fans growing up today, who are served up the same contrived tournaments every year. Anyway, hope we fuck UShited tomorrow! Link to comment
Sonoftherock Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 He's Canadian.Explains it all now. Exactly what I thought I wonder if @@Sonoftherock could confirm if he part of THE Canadian family I noticed a while back that most of his posts are made from the USA... hadn't noticed anything from Canada? So, no, I don't think he's part of the Canadian Waltons. Link to comment

Scotty_Toronto Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I don't get the completely insular, boring and unfunny 'Oh, you've never lived anywhere but Aberdeen, too? Let's pat ourselves on the back and put down our worldwide support' angle (but carry on). America you say? Same difference! You wanna talk neighbours to the South? Link to comment
Chewie37 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Hope we ram Laszlos disrespectful mind games right down his throat tomorrow. Also anyone who agrees with his pish can fuck off Edit: its 10.43pm here Saturday night Link to comment

Let's pat ourselves on the back and put down our worldwide support' angle (but carry on). Agreed. " insular, boring and unfunny"...Nailed it. It's very rare to meet a Dons fan overseas (Oz, anyway), hence the reason i enjoy the forum and the opinions and the banter. Living your whole life in Aberdeen. Cool. Why is being born there and moving away for any reason a problem? Why is never having set foot in Aberdeen but supporting the Dons an issue? It's narrow minded and like you Scotty, I don't get it...at all. 2 Link to comment

For Fecks Sake Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Can we perhaps get back on topic please? Think this one will harder than most people think as the Arabs will have something to prove. However a McGinn and Rooney double will see us win 2-0 in front of a 11,328 crowd. COYR! Link to comment

Yeah very nervous about this one... we wouldn't hear the end of it if we get beat here... Everyone is expecting us to crush them... hope the team don't let us down! Link to comment

Sheepo Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I actually believe this will be the worst United team to visit Pittodrie in living memory and I also believe we will pump them 5-0 Link to comment
Shinniesta Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 McInnes has never lost a home cup tie as AFC manager. I don't expect that to change today. United will be up for it but we'll turn them over. 3-1. Link to comment
