Match Thread Aberdeen 0 - 2 Hamilton

[CalgaryDon]

Awful result. Considine needs to go. He's never been good enough to play for Aberdeen.

 

Thats 2nd place gifted to the zombies.

 

We desperately need a Kenny McLean or Ryan Christie in our team.

Where was James Wilson tonight?

[aberdeen1970]

All our performances at home since the winter break have been very similar. We have been non existent in midfield, weak and vulnerable in defence and wasteful and lacking ideas up front. Why McInnes keeps setting us up the same way, playing the same style that is failing time and again is beyond me.

 

I'm not saying we were playing amazing football in December, but we were looking battle hardened and like we knew how to get a win. Now we look weak and unsure. Certainly not putting all the blame on Stewart, but changing the team to fit him in has been a failure so far. He just doesn't seem to work in a McInnes team.

 

Horrible to think what Sunday could be like if we play like we have been.

Aye, time to set up differently at home. They're doing everything at half pace and they're too predictable.

[starryfish]

Why didn’t Shinnie replace Lowe when he went off and Gleeson come on?

[Ten Caat]

Where was James Wilson tonight?

No idea but even Harold Wilson would have improved our performance tonight

[cruzcampo3]

Stewart Milne doing his best to show why we need to leave Pittodrie. Will be coming out saying it’s cursed next

[1903Fitba]

I would like to see the stats before passing comment as I didnae watch it. Are there any excuses?

 

I agree with general sentiments about Stewart, he slows our attacks and tries to dribble his way to goal when we need a more direct 'get-to-the-byline-and-hit-the big man approach'.

 

It is very tough luck we've now lost our first choice five defenders to injury over the course of the season with Devlin, Logan and Hoban all long-term.

 

It seems though the general balance of our set-up / personnel just doesn't work at home? McInnes though really does seem to be a one-trick-pony?

 

I'd love to see us try a more straightforward 4-4-2 formation against gers.

We could see just as much of Shinnies playmaking from deep surely and dom ball and ferguson can do a job in midfield

[Sheepo]

Absolutely shocking performance no positives at all, it was like being back in the Mcghee days, manager had absolutely no clue how to change things as usual, dreading Sunday now

[strachanmcgheegoal]

It’s our slow starts that are killing us.

 

Attendances post Sunday could potentially be manager threatening.

 

Celtic’s winner tonight could bizarrely be in Milnes favour in that the hun have apparently bet the house and still end with nothing. They’ll sell the place out next year again of course but it will still need to keep their cash on a one way trip to the furnace.

[King Street Loon]

Boy Miller has caused problems all night. Pass the ball on the ground and move about, seems to be beyond the team.

The No.9 Oakley bullied our backline all game too.

[aberdeen1970]

shall I post it again?

I think I've got it now. You're talking about Shinnie play making from left back.

[dazzy_deff]

Absolutely honking tonight. Not been so pissed off at the fitba in a long time. Nae ideas, couldn't pass a 3 yard ball, no shape. Absolutely clueless.

[Torry Tosser]

Club will never win anything as long as Bob the Builder is in charge.

No money spent on decent signings,the endless shit fucking loans,when we do spend its wasted,May fucked at Preston and we sign him.

[thomsod]

So many poor results against poor teams.

[aberdeen1970]

So many poor results against poor teams.

We've gone behind in games more this season than I can remember for years.

 

To be fair, his record against the lower teams has been excellent up until this year but the team is just too pedestrian and predictable at home. Teams just sit in and frustrate us knowing they'll get a few chances at some point.

[Zeus]

Imagine losing to a team managed by Brian Rice, spent his career being number 2 to John Hughes ffs.

 

Embarrassing. No shape, urgency. Once Lowe went off we had Ball, Ferguson and Shinnie in midfield - aye that’s needed at Home to Hamilton. The number 9 gave Considine, Devin and McKenna nightmares. A performance straight out the McGhee era.

 

1 point at home vs St Mirren and Hamilton isn’t good enough.

 

The happy clappers still won’t think it’s McInnes’s fault

[DD1903]

Brian rice looks like a bin man

Yeah absolutely! We used to be able to win majority of games against weaker teams but not happening this season.

 

Do we give him another chance to rebuild the squad or say change is best?

 

Sunday is now massive.

[Zeus]

Hammered Sunday. Season over. Fuck off

[King Street Loon]

One of the worst performances I've seen in a long time.

Players showing no desire, no urgency, no fight, no passion.

Fucking pathetic.

[Daz the Don]

The No.9 Oakley bullied our backline all game too.

Said that during the game, never heard of the guy but he bullied our whole defense all night.

 

The number 11 was a threat also and if he made better decidions on a couple of instances, would have got more than the 1 goal he did.

 

We were awful at the back tonight and not just defensively as the distribution from Devlin, McKenna and considine was atrocious.

[Mr John]

Brian rice looks like a bin man

He just drove a truck into our season.

[G31DON]

Starting the game at half pace has been a good idea approximately zero times.

 

Shinnie puts away that chance on 13 minutes could have been all so different.

[Sonoftherock]

I hoped that the Stenhousemuir game was just a one-off.... very worrying that we've had another performance of this level.  Very reminiscent of a few of our performances pre-xmas, where we looked completely lost - devoid of a plan B!

 

As always, plenty of bed wetting after a a bad result (I'd got up to watch the match, but went back to bed for a pish at fulltime.  That result was so bad, that I think i might have followed through.)... but extremely concerning that these type of performances are becoming increasingly more common.    Some justification for us bed-wetters maybe?
