Big Hat Logan Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Be interesting to see where this goes, Maloney was someone a lot of posters were howling about to get the AFC job. That and Jack Ross and Callum Davidson lol. Hibs have a better team than us I would say, looking forward to seeing how this plays out. Link to comment

Caldwell with 55 caps, having won every domestic trophy in Scotland and also an FA Cup winners medal Robbie Neilson...1 Scotland cap and one Scottish Cup medal in the cheating years. I know who I'd rather have as manager. And it isn't the guy that uses spunk as a brylcreem substitute Okay penfold, because caps and medals as a player is always a great measure of how good a manager they are. 1 Link to comment

WesthillWanderersFC Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Listened to the Stephen Glass interview on REDTV earlier. He comes across as a decent enough bloke, but he’s a bit delusional, saying if we’d got the points we’d deserved this season we’d be comfortably 3rd. I must’ve been watching a different Dons team most of this season & he’s forgetting the luck hasn’t all been bad in the league. As for Wednesday I’m hoping the man who I’d have liked to got the Dons job doesn’t get the better of the man who was always going to get it. If Maloney hadn’t have arrived today I might’ve have fancied us to win, but his arrival could be shit timing for us & will give them a lift after the Cup Final. Link to comment

We were incredibly unlucky not to win some of those games earlier this season. Confidence dropped etc as a result. I think we'll have a really strong second half to the season. I remain confident we can make Europe this season. Also what credentials does Maloney have that makes folk think he'd be a better option than Glass. 2 Link to comment

Those games where we had 66% possession but created diddley squat? The flip side is: Ross County home - keeper threw one in, 93rd minute. Draw instead of defeat. Livi away- as above - win instead of draw. St Johnstone away. Blatant hand ball to get us two extra points. Yes there’s been a couple we’ve been unlucky. St Mirren away when we were comfortable at 2-1 up. Obviously the hun away game, that hun bastard Beaton screwed us But by & large, the two poor runs we had in the league we were shite - throwing them in at one end & creating fuck all at the other Link to comment

There’s been a few games where there’s been mitigating circumstances eg the red card at St Mirren after an unjustified first yellow changed that game. And there’s a fair chance the result at Tannadice would have been different if it weren’t for the disgraceful red card for Ojo. But other than that and the huns at Ibrox I’m struggling to think of any games where we could genuinely claim we were unlucky. Continually losing cheap, soft goals that the opposition don’t really have to work for isn’t unlucky. Link to comment

Parklife Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Nisbet blows hot and cold. I'd say CR9 is a better number 9. I wouldn't say there's too much between our squad and Hibs' overall. Link to comment

Not in Ramsays league hence me omitting him. I'd maybe take him in front of Mcenzie but he's over rated imo Who? Not getting in ahead of Brown or Ferguson is he? Nesbitt is shite.

No idea, strangely enough I've not had much experience of it. I've no doubt Atlanta B is more applicable than Belgium to managing Aberdeen, but surely you want your manager to have experience at as high a level as he can? Link to comment

I left with 20 mins to go like a very shite fan but I was absolutely dismayed by what I was watching. We must have been ace in those last 20 mins.

Who has struggled to get in the Hibs side in recent weeks, being kept out by their geriatric alternative Louis Stevenson. There was talk of him being sold for £5million last season..........a hefty dose of reality has hit home in the intervening months. Link to comment

Motherwell didn't need to be good second half cause we were so bad I was at the away game we were all over them without creating much clear cut chances. Couple of diagonal balls over the top caught us out. Like you I left at the second goal. Home game I watched on my phone, would agree with your assessment but we were still the better side overall. Motherwell were equally as shite second half. Link to comment
