Match Thread Aberdeen 2 - 0 Hearts

[Just Dandy]

Now that was more like it.

 

Not the warmest of days, but I couldn't GAF.

 

Hope you all took my November advice to pile on us at 10/1 for Top-without-Celtic...

[CalgaryDon]

Definite pass marks for Gleeson in my opinion. That potentially reduces our shit signings list to just Wilson and Forrester.

 

McInnes indicated that there is definitely a player in Forrester - give the lad a break. He'll come good in time.

[Zeus]

Himmin @westerhail or fitever the fuck your called. Hearts are fucking pish. Hopefully bottom 6 this season followed by relegation next season.

 

Cosgrove was excellent again. Naismith is a fucking wanker

 

Dinna usually moan about refs but beaton was horrendous today.

[aberdeen1970]

The Hearts boy "little God" is the worst player I've seen at Pittodrie for some time.

[Dynamo]

This time next week we'll be top of the league.

[BWG]

Hearts won't be this shit forever so it's a good 3 points. More or less a total reversal of what happened down in their shithole.

 

Again - fuck hearts.

Stevie Glee back in the frame

 

Drink to that for the next four days

Thought Mitchell was worse. Bowff

 

Actually the whole lot of them are. That number 5 hahahaha. Berra lol.

[BWG]

To be fair to Berra it's hard to time a challenge properly when you're reading your newspaper.

[1903Fitba]

Some. Every club has its delusional fringe. Something is rotten in Hearts just now, can feel it. Injuries is a smoke screen. Although pretty bad. Just dinnae see the effort, few coasting. Either big time charlies think they've arrived or something stinks in the dressing room. Think our Director of Football should start giving the manager a bit of a hard time.

 

Our first XI still gives me a bit hope and think with right tactics (sigh) would give most teams a hard time, but still work to do:

 

Bobby (starting to play like a keeper that's been a no.2 his whole career, oh...)

 

Souttar (the boy is becoming a man under Berra and Levein, getting nasty, like McKenna, good)

Berra (solid, wins more headers / tackles than rest of league's CHs)

Dunne (gets us, great lad, great effort and positioning, can tell he's EPL)

 

Haring (accidental best signing, CH becomes great MF ball winner and goal threat)

Lee (wow, just fell away, player in there but needs a rollicking, you ain't at Luton now, typically we sign and immediately change his position from last team)

Djoum (world class in his own head, punt end of season)

 

Smith (his best games starting to be sweeper or RCH, good lad and capable)

Mitchell (shadow of the player last season, our LB curse just goes on and on)

 

Naisy (10/10 - captain on the park and nailing THEM every opportunity endears)

Uche (headless but an absolute tank, unplayable on his game, but that's 1 in 4)

 

Think under Budge (punt) we've signed c. 100 players now, and still don't have an XI. She goes on about our youth conveyor belt. When everybody is fit there wouldn't even be a youth product on our bench never mind the first team. Cochrane, McDonald, Morrison doing their bits. But reality is in my lifetime our conveyor belts last decent forward was John Robertson. Since then it's been Glen, Carrick, Currie, Weir, Roy, Elliiot and a host of others who were being groomed for Alloa and Raith's first teams.

 

Anyway, you don't care, nobody cares. Just me. Happy Christmas to Scotland's 4th or 5th biggest.

 

I'm sticking with 0-0.

Great summary +1

[starryfish]

Didn’t think Hearts were that bad, thought the penalty coming when it did was good for us. If they can sort out their final third issues they will easily be top 6.

[Tommy]

Great win despite an arse of a referee.

 

[super_al]

Any news on Lowe?

[Crashnyploshnit]

Good result against a typically dirty Jambos team. Pass marks for most of the Dons. Felt Campbell looked dodge when he came on but Gleeson coming on settled him down.

Piss off.

Glad to be proven wrong.

[Andy_123]

Good win today without every really getting out of 2nd gear for most of the match.

 

Gleeson made a big difference for us when he came on. Settled down the midfield after Hearts were starting to get into the game a bit more. 

 

Hearts are absolutely dreadful. If Naismith isn't dropping deep for the ball they have nothing going forward. Still dirty whingy bastards as well. Bottom 6 for them I reckon. 

 

Also, Beaton, what a useless fuck of a ref he is. Lucky the game didn't descend into total chaos with his shite performance.

[super_al]

Dean Campbell should go out on loan. He is still very young and the first team is a step up to far for him at the moment.

[ollie1903]

Pleasing

[Mr John]

Wasn't a game for a central midfielder today. Baw was pinging around the air a lot.

 

Ferguson is a terrific agent provacateur in there, noising them up left, right and centre. Gleeson looked good too, but the game was won.

 

Lowe getting injured/ returning to Derby may mean our collective wet dream of Shinnie at LB, but we all know Considine will be there as soon as Devlin is back.

[Dynamo]

How may point behind Hearts were we a few weeks ago?

 

The Gorgie Pretenders.

That's seriously harsh 

 

He demanded the ball at times, had a decent dig, lovely control and drive for the red card.

[Andy_123]

He grew into the game as it went on and in the end he did fine, but for the first 10 mins after he came on he was lost and just chasing shadows.

 

A loan would be a good move for him I reckon. We have an abundance of backup CM's so he's unlikely to get a decent amount of game time here at the moment.

[maryhilldon]

Got a lovely feeling about the victims game, might just get a result against the cunts. COYR

[CalgaryDon]

He looked a tad out his depths when he came on. Gleeson's presence calmed him down and led to him looking the part. He's only 17 remember so we can't expect too much. Clearly has ability but its a tough game to be included in against a team as physical as Hearts. He's the captain of the youth team and clearly has done enough to impress DM.

[Wester Hailes Skins]

I said there's something rotten. Levein-ball isn't working and we've no plan B. I sense our players want to play a different way but aren't being allowed. Berra isn't fit. Naisy just back and with too much to do himself, being AMF, CF and Winger at times.

 

Clare looks like we were shafted by signing Sheff Wed's worst youngster. Mitchell will be at Fleetwood or Preston soon.

 

Could go on a major rant. Seeing on one of our forums that in last 18 away games at Rangers, Celtic, Aberdeen and Hibs - we've lost 17. With a further 2 cup losses in that time to Celtic and Hibs. And before that Robbie Neilson only won 2, with our win at Ibrox with Sow now 4 and a half years ago.

 

Levein and Budge are strangling our club. She's more worried about who's standing up than the fact she's signed off on 100 players, and all but half a dozen have been shite.

 

Anyway. Right team won. Looks like a battle for top half again.

Why are you telling us this as if it's an exclamation?

It's nothing unusual, hearts are always shite.
