aberdeen1970 Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Anyone who has to stop, get the ball under control then look up to see what direction he's headed before setting off has no business playing at our level. Link to comment

Big Hat Logan Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 16 hours ago, The Lighthouse said: It`s always good to win but we should also remember where are are in the context of this season. Utterly unacceptable is my take on it. At 3.00pm we were 2nd bottom of the league, albeit with (allegedly) the 3rd highest budget.... The defeat at home against Kilmarnock was the last straw for me (6-0 against the Tims was fkn diabolic but somehow seems to have been brushed aside) - regardless of whatever happened today. Even if we somehow manage to beat the huns next week(£100 to a named charity if we do - let me know) I am still unlikely to change my mind on the current administration / management. Robson is simply not equipped to deal with the challnges ahead. He is not a manager and overwhelming evidence is there for all to see. Witness the start today..motivational speaches...? In an ideal world we have a change of owner next year but that is highly unlikely. As someone else said in a previous thread, the opening of the long awaited training ground has coincided with a complete collapse in the capability of the team...despite various changes in manager. Dodging dog shite at public parks was a much better option it appears. I have followed Aberdeen over a number of decades and since the early 1990`s we have spiralled downwards ...2 League Cups against utterly shite Dundee and Inverness teams doesn`t cover up the decline. The malaise in our once great club continues... dismiss the 2nd half today and think about it. Are we happy with this situation? Fuck no - I am alll for complete change. Has Burrows made any impact? Has Cormack improved anything (apart from building - and naming the training ground)? The 80’s are not coming back, m8 1 Link to comment
elephantstone78 Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Great effort in the second half. Really heartening to see the players still trying. Too often in the past we lose a goal and there’s no reaction whatsoever. Annoying to see Killie win and we don’t gain anything on them this week. King Del does it again. Link to comment

thurso Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 5 hours ago, ahead on alphabet said: So the fact we couldn't break them down didn't have anything to do with our tactics? And We would only have been able to break them down playing against 10 as they are so good? Some team that Helsinki. Actually we were also very defensive in that game too. Robson hoped they would come out and we could counter them as it's all he has. Even when we didn’t have Robson as manager we have really struggled to break down teams that want to come and sit in defensive. 4 hours ago, perthshirered said: If a team is intent on sitting deep and denying space id have thought even folk from Thurso would have the brains to realise you don't try to launch the ball long straight at them. I’m not condoning long ball tactics I personally like the barcalona tica taca football but when we try long ball our players doing it just hoof it as their distribution isn’t very good.

Your numbers are way out though. I saw something doing the rounds a few weeks ago saying AFC wages were £4mm. In fact they are £11.6mm and 75% of turnover which last year climbed back to match precovid levels. (See afc accounts for full details). Of course this is still poor compared to the English championship and dwarfed by Celtic and Rangers. Link to comment

Agree that in principle we the system is designed to keep everyone well away from the ugly sister. Your numbers are incorrect though. Aberdeen's wage bill last year was £11.6 million under a turnover of a £15.8. million. This was a return to turnover levels reached pre covid. See AFC published accounts for details. Link to comment
