Better than other games certainly, but I still thought he looked suspect. Passing was pretty poor, gave the ball away a couple of times with passes to no one when under little pressure, lost a number of battles for headers and was dragged out of position on more than one occasion. Hopefully it is a confidence thing as folk say and he can show us the real David Bates but so far, he's looked rank rotten to me, and was only slightly better on Saturday. He has been our weakest link in defence so far but did improve on Saturday. Played some nice balls to feet into midfield as well. I wonder if having Brown in there helped. Its a starting point, so hopefully he continues to improve Link to comment

Your post’s are of hatred and as you have an anger issue they are not well thought out. Come back once you are of reasonable mind and then the real fun will begin. I will pass you deluded boring twat. I would think you were a parody account if I didn’t know better . No one could keep up that persona for years if it wasn’t your real one. Link to comment

It’s just your personality that stops you from expressing yourself in a more normal manner with friendly banter and good humour. A good dose of hard labour is what you are in need of….as sitting in your dwelling with nothing to do and all day to think about it is having you suffering from psychological damage. It’s that damage that makes you express hatred towards my good self. Go and dig a big hole, put all your anger issues in it and back fill it properly (Don’t cheat and use a mechanical digger of some sort, just a spade and pick will suffice). It will help you sleep better also, saves the NHS money for the strong medication you currently receive. Link to comment
RED_JOHN Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Back on the topic of David Bates….has anyone thought this lad is a great signing? Link to comment
BonnieDon Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Sadly its not been a great start to his Dons career. Can't believe its come to this but I'd start Devlin ahead of him once he's fit. Bates needs some time on the bench. Link to comment

I had my doubts on the boy from his huns days and was giving him the benefit of doubt thinking he mighta turned into a footballer in Germany. Nope - he's still fucking rank Link to comment
perthshirered Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 The cunt disnae even look like a fitba player. Walks like an auld buckled jaikey stoatin up the road, liable to coup over at any point. Redheads are usually nae nonsense, hardy bastards on the park yet he just looks like a big gormless halfwit. 1 Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 He looks terrified every time he sees the ball coming towards him. Not the sign of a defender you can trust. Link to comment
ABERDEENROWIE1903 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Should not be anywhere near the first team Just not up to the job Bottom line he is shit and has no confidence in his own ability Dreadfully signing Link to comment
RED_JOHN Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Kilgore Trout will be in here shortly to defend him. Don’t tell him I said Bates was absolutely useless….he will go in the huff. Link to comment

He’s been injured for 2.5 of the last years FFS. He’s an injury prone, carthorse who’s finished. 1 Link to comment
pocrawred Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Watched sportscene highlights and bates was on his arse often enough, couldnt tap it in over the line when it was harder to miss. What the fuck did Hamburg see in him?? More to the point what the fuck does Glass see in him?? Link to comment

Said on another thread that I thought when Master Bates signed that Glass had a pulled off a stroke of genius, but it's not. I also thought that it must be hard for bates but he will cum good and strong in the end, but he is not going to cum good at all. I now believe that the proper level for our Master Bates is sitting on the bench for the ladies team building up the muscles in his wrist and forearm, that's pretty much all he is probably capable of doing.

Chewie37 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Taking too long for him to get back up to speed in Scottish fitba, needs a hard player beside him, which should be Gallagher but he’s been gash too...... Link to comment
Guest findlay_1903 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 His distribution is seriously poor, his persona is screaming of someone with next to no confidence, maybe a fee games out of the firing line might be in order. COYR Link to comment
BitWait Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Bombscare every time under pressure , other teams know this and will target him. He needs a time out soon as possible Link to comment

aberdeen1970 Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 I've got a wee bit of sympathy for Bates. He's the only defender in our back 5. Hes not been good but he's getting the brunt of other collective defensive errors as well as his own. 1 Link to comment
Guest Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 I'm no convinced by bates yet either to be honest. He is shaky on the ball & his distribution is woeful. I hope he proves me wrong in time, but so far I'm not seeing alot. Link to comment

Injured as well. They looked better together before Gallagher got injured. Link to comment
