Over confidence causes over complacency….this will be a much harder game than we probably expect. We will be doing well to come away with any victory tonight.

Aye this one's going to be tougher than Hacken.

Hmmmmm, nae convinced. It will be tough but Hacken we’re a very good side.

I think we’ll win this, away from home, when we were effectively pumped away from home against Hacken

COYR

Lets get another good performance under our belts.

I had a dream last night that we won this away leg 2-0.  (I had a few cans before going to bed).

Get down to the bookies pronto!

NB - I will not be held responsible for anyone losing their money.

Anyway, dead excited for this! Any news on the likelihood of the doubts to play?

Ok sorry I downplayed it a little.  Qualification isnt supposed to be easy especially coming through the QR route and coming so early in our season relative to some others.  What I'm trying to say is we've not even come close to the PO in my mind.  Miles off it.  We should have been closer at least once is my point - looking back at it with disappointment, not a misty eyed jealousy of the "big teams."  

[Crossbow]

Our central defence still gives me the fear - why hasn't Gallagher been given more game time - is he carrying an injury?

If we play an attacking game we should create chances especially if JET can continue to show his European form.

At the moment I'd take a draw away especially as fans back at Pittodrie - hoping for better though

We've come close to the PO round. Maribor was obviously the main one, but we were close with Apollon and Kairat. I'm not saying that coming close is an achievement to be celebrated, but to say we've only ever been miles off isn't true.

We're gonna win tonight by a goal or two.

Back at Pittodrie we'll skelp them.

Gallagher is either still catching up pre-season wise or (the bit that concerns me) Glass is going with Consi and McCrorie until they do something which makes them droppable, which I believe will not be far away. They do not convince me as a pairing.

I've got a season ticket but won't be going, so if you're struggling, let me know.

I've had the feeling this will be a tougher tie also - just a gut feeling, maybe because I'm misrepresenting Austria Vienna as still a big club in my head.

From the highlights their no. 20 looks quite a tidy, tricky type of player. But Hedges is back in contention, Fergie and Broonaldinho look up to speed already and we're now into our 4th competitve match - I'm optimistic we're about to start clicking properly

Not sure how it'll work with my season ticket being on my phone though. I might have to request a paper ticket. Let me look in to it

I think the Dons will be up for it tonight and be on it far more than the last two where we didnt really move out of second gear.

Glass recognises weve not been to the PO round and this is a huge tie

[Bournemouth Gee]

With the away goals rule scrapped I think this becomes a tougher tie. Think there will be goals tonight.

 

Mon the Dons

Shocking.

Blame AFC for the NFC season ticket thingy. 

[Eastcoastdon]

Interesting to see the bookies have us as 10/11 favourites to win away tonight

COYR . 0 - 2 away win for us. Ramirez and JET to score.

[Don_Corleone]

The Icelandic league is not as good as ours. I would guess that the top few in their league are equivalent of the bottom few in SPL, and the rest of their teams Championship level at best. We should be going into this game believing we're better than them. None of this McInnes mentality where we go out and poo our pants on the pitch trying to defend for 90 minutes against a bunch of nobodies. That mentality and set up is what has cost us in recent years. Get out there, aggressive, confident, on the front foot from the off, pile the pressure on, and win the game. Simple.

Yes 

it’s listed as an upcoming event on the REDTV international website. 

Never mind. Seems the club don’t have the rights, might only be audio. 

[RAZOR]

Kennedy not travelling. Should really be looking to offload.

 

[muttonhumper]

 

Live video on RedTV International as always, regardless of anyone else acquiring rights.

Apparently he is carrying a knock and stayed behind to try and be ready for Sunday.

Make of that what you will
