Match Thread Aberdeen 2 - 0 Hearts

[Tord31]

happy with that

 

Cosgrove surprisingly good

 

McLean player of the year

[Don Fonte]

Craigan showing what a boring tosser he is on commentary: "imagine the outrage if Berra did it back to him".

Thought that was a strange comment to make.

 

Highly amusing anyway and if I had a son who did this I'd be proud.

 

@@Millertime - noticed you'd had an arrival. Congratulations first, then if it's a loon I hope you bring him up to do similar.

[DelMonte]

Every time I've seen Ball play midfield he's looked good. Weird he hasn't been utilised more.

[Don Fonte]

Haha but of course!

 

Thank you

 

Had a look on the club shop to deck him out in afc stuff but the new born selection is a disgrace !

I remember it back near 8 years ago being terrible so obviously no change.

 

I'd had a girl too and would have struggled to get any football related gear past her mother's beady eye but was ready to buy the lot. Think I managed a babygro being all I could find to buy.

Good win. What happened with Berra and the ball boy?!

 

 

Ball boy 'bowled' the ball very hard underhand at close range right into Berra's stomach.

 

Berra complained to the ref.

 

Ball boy got a cheer and the TV camera zoomed in on his impish grin.

 

(Would make a good gif.)

 

[Don Fonte]

Good lad.

 

It wasn't even the fact that he did it but more that Berra complained to the referee.

 

Must have knocked his newspaper and cigar out his hands.

[Ke1t]

Top lad right there... if that was my laddie he'd be getting an extra twenty in his pocket money

[alscotoz]

Smart ball from Cosgrove to McLean for the second goal. 3 Points, good enough.

I just managed to catch the part where Berra was looking at the boy with a look of disbelief

Poor Christophe

[V for Vendetta]

Play 2 up for the remaining games?

 

Seems it may have helped the whole team having more targets ahead of the play to aim at?

[DelMonte]

Stevie May done very well last night I thought. Him and Cosgrove both a handful for their back 3.

 

I had my doubts when I saw the line up but McInnes got it right (surprising when the experts on here, including me, were saying all sorts before the game).

 

Only gripe was moving Shinnie out of left back to follow Cocharane all over the pitch. Didn't work and invited on some late pressure but nothing came of it so who cares.

[Shinniesta]

I thought the whole team (bar McGinn who was downright awful) played well last night. It was a very easy 3 points we really should have scored more than 2 goals.

 

I thought Logan was back to his best last night for me he was the MOTM.

[Poodler]

Pitch looks good

[BWG]

Ball boy MOTM IMO

[reekie_dock]

Berra crying like a bitch to ref what a reptile

 

Ballboy did good, catch that ya prick

 

Easy 3 points Hearts are jobbie

[RUL]

I think it made a big difference that it actually looked like we were playing on a football pitch.

Totally agree. Was a needless change of system that invited pressure when we were in total control.

 

However it didnt affect the outcome, but shinnie at left back again please Derek.

[Henry]

Surprised Berra put his newspaper down long enough to complain to the referee.

[cruzcampo3]

Haha but of course!

 

Thank you

I have seen a few other Club shops have some great New Born baby clothing. When we had our boy in 2016 he had PJ's and a couple of baby grows. He did have an all in one looking kits in red and white.

Even now only get him the strips as the rest a poor.

 

Remember to sign up young Mario to the Angus the Bull Club,

Kitting out new borns in fitba gear is THE height of cringe.

[Reliablesource]

Berra is a gum shield wearing poof. Fair play to the ball boy, quality wee smirk.

 

Cosgrove, AOK and Ball were a concern but all 3 did far better than I expected.

 

GMS motm imo.

Great weighted pass fae McLean for 2nd.

 

Draw tomorrow please............. the title dream lives on!

[elephantstone78]

THAT is Dels team walking the walk

Absolute barnstormer of a performance

That's the kind of Aberdeen we all love, taking no shit, matching them physically, bossing them actually BUT with touches of class to get the goals too

Proud of the team and manager tonight

This.

Excellent performance against a bogey team this season.

[Reliablesource]

Were we not playing on a great surface at hampden or at Easter road?

 

The pitch has been a pretty poor excuse

Away from home it's not an excuse for anything. Could be used as an excuse for some poor football played at home recently with some justification.

 

 

I'd point to Christie on the bench as a reason for the difference in all round improvement. Long may it continue.

[DelMonte]

Well, we won 2 nil so it worked ?

Did it? I thought we played worse after it and Cochrane actually got away from Shinnie quite a lot. Conceded a chance down the left. Doesn't matter now but I thought we played worse after that change. Just an opinion.
