If we win all our home games & draw all our away games in Europa we could make a few quid 👍

Well yes, because that would take us all the way to the final

You never fail to show how stupid you are in every post you make.

Someone earlier said it was 5pm, which is pretty keech!

[fine-n-dandy]

Would imagine they have to wait until it’s 100% confirmed who we’re playing 🤔

I'm 28 this year and we haven't won the Scottish Cup in my lifetime. St J have won it twice since. United once. Hearts 3 times, Hibs once. Fucking Inverness Caley once as well. The Huns won it, died and came back and won it before we managed to get our hands on it again. 

...um...

What about that was stupid? 
 

Tangible silverware takes precedent over all the other nonsense fans chat about in the modern game.

'Either or'

It's possible to have a European run and win a cup. Many might say a European run and the money that comes from it helps win domestic trophies.

That you were unaware of that is one of the many reasons why you're the village idiot.

Who cares which one is better when you never do either. We’ll take whatever we can get!

 

2 league cups & 1 European run past October in 30 years. Yeeha

For the years 1903-1979 and 1986-2023 Aberdeen Football Club average 1 trophy every 12 and a half years. We had that incredible spell between 79 and 86 where we won more trophies in that 7 years than we have in the 113 years around it combined.

We'd all love us to win more cups, but the reality is we're currently on par over the past 35 years with our average for most of our history.

We were lucky and spoiled by that 7 year spell under Fergie which has made fans of today think we're bigger than we actually are.  We're never ever going to be a club that wins a cup every 3/4 years, no club in Scotland outwith the bigot brothers will ever do that consistently. Hearts have won 3 trophies in 60 years, Hibs 4 in 70, Dundee United 5 in their entire 114 year history.

Scottish football is a dud, always has been and always will be. Unless the huns and Celtic bugger off they'll always hoover up 90% of the trophies and the rest of us will pick up scraps once in a blue moon.

[JumboJET]

Let's get this going!!!

We're the Dons, from Aberdeen

And we're the third best, in the Scottish League

And we're gonna do it, we're gonna do it, we're gonna do it for you! 

Duk and Mioviski, and Shinnie too

Will lead us forward and take us through

And we're gonna do it, we're gonna do it, we're gonna do it for you! 

We've taken out team into Europe...

Would stretch that to 90 to include our cup double in 89-90 (biased though as I was at both finals).

Of course it's possible to do both. Where did I say we should fuck Europe off? I'm saying the point of interest for fans seems to have shifted, all I hear is shit about sell ons, coefficients blah blah. These things take care of themselves. 
 

What we want is a trophy. 
 

Of course more money coming in should mean better players, which in turn should then mean a better chance at domestic silverware. However, we've sold plenty assets over the years of me supporting Aberdeen and only played in 2 Scottish Cup Finals since 1995. 
 

It seems like you don't know what is being said.

odd that they won the league

[Peedie1]

Reckon zalgris are the favourites for this as they have by far the stronger team, so supporting hacken for a result hopefully

Aye, they’re using a points based system in Sweden rather than how many fans will travel to Lithuania with a couple weeks notice to decide the champions.

 

[Millertime]

Who do we want to go through,  Hacken?

[Donstar83]

1 nil Hacken

[Jazzer08]

Well that's Hacken in front

For familiarity alone I'd probably say, yes.

I’d say Vilnius as they’ll be weaker than Hacken, who’ve apparently improved since we played them.

Looks a moot point as Häcken are 1-0 up at half time in the away leg.

I get what you're saying. Looks at Spurs. Playing in a big league, often there or thereabouts domestically, have been to a major final, some world class players, fancy new stadium etc. But what have the to show for it trophy wise? Sweet FA. They're a bit of a laughing stock for it if anything.
