The really hurtful hun comment.

Fantastic.

Get back to fiddling.

[JamieMT]

3-1 Dons, maybe 4-1. Hedging my bets.

[BaaBaaRedSheep]

Well may be undefeated in 5 in league but haven't won in 9 away, 10 away if you count Morton in cup.

Convincing Dons victory expected, unless ref / VAR fuck it up. 🤞they don't.

2-0, a goal in each half.

[C'monEweReds]

2-0 dons. Miovski , Shinnie.

Really struggling to drag myself along to games at the minute knowing 3rd is gone, However i'm in.

Clancy is BIB tonight and McLean on VAR so not expecting much to go our way - although would hope we don't have to rely on that.

Might be the night that Colin loses it with VAR, are you with me?

Should have lost it last week at the hun game after Goldson's fantastic save!

We always seem to be the opposition a team manages to break a bad run against

[Footballs coming Rome]

Must win game for morale. If we don’t win it’s a long shot to make top 6 after the results last week.   

Which Aberdeen team will show up today is anyone’s guess. Interested to see if Warnocks honest and demanding man management has started to reap any benefits. 

Would be happy to see us keep possession and grow some balls to dominate a game convincingly.

Tom Ritchie has gone out on loan to Buckie so won’t be available tonight.

Obvious decision now we have such a strong sub goalie as Kelle Roos

[thurso]

3-0 to the dandies. 
 

miovski duk and McGrath to score 

[HaarDon]

Warnock has had some time to weave his trqining pitch magic.

 

4-1 us.

 

Hopefully McDonald 1st goal from a corner.

[Arthur FN Shelby]

Think these are the games we need a plan b, a target man with a bit of muscle and Miovski scooping up the rewards.

Ruby(I know he’s injured for this game) would be a great last 5 minute target man . Plan C striker

Must win game if we're wanting 4th or 5th and Europe next season.

The run we've got in the league until the split.

Motherwell H

Hibs H

Kilmarnock A

St Johnstone H

St Mirren A

Dundee A

Motherwell A

Ross County H

Livingston A

Dundee H

Reality is we couldn't have a better run in. But we've had runs like this over the past few seasons where we should have been racking up the points and we've ended up failing miserably. 24 points minimum out of 30 needed.

Anyway back to the game tomorrow.

Pretty sure Motherwell will ‘park the bus’ and defend like the proverbial fuck. Just hope we score early so they have to open up or could be a long night. Still going for 2-1 us.

Let’s hope they do t score early.  When was the last time we came from behind to win.  ???

Unless Warnock is a miracle worker, I can’t see 24 points or 30 happening.

To be fair we've only picked up 25 points from our first 23 games, so 24 from the last 10 would definitely be a miracle. Only thing in our favour is that we don't have to play any of the top 3 again before the split.

Apart from County and Livi I’m not confident we could get 3 points from any of the rest.

The counter argument to that is that we have actually taken points off the top 3 this season

We've taken none (so far) against Hibs and Killie.

But I do get what you mean. 3rd has gone for us. But 4th and 5th, although unlikely, are still there to play for. We'll certainly need to pick up 22 points from the next 10 games to keep us in with a shout of them come the split. If Killie and/or St Mirren manage to match or beat that total (even if they get 19 or 20 it probably rules us out), we'll just have to suck it up and say well done and look forward to next season

St Mirren have games against Us, Killie, Hearts & Celtic to come yet pre-split.

Killie's next 3 games are Celtic, Us & Huns. They also have St Mirren & Hearts pre-split.

[20two20]

Dons 4-0 Motherwell, Kettlewell sacked

Duk (2)

Miovski 

Clarkson

Warnocks Warriors win every game between now and the end of the season and we finish third with a Scottish Cup trophy, sell Miovski and Duk for £20m (each) and win the league next year.

Easy.

Duk 2 & Clarkson 1 is probably the most ridiculous thing in all that 🤣

Not that it’ll likely make too much difference but they both also have 2 games less than us to play. They only have 24 points to play for between now and the split. IF and it’s a very big if we can pick up 22-24 points in the next 10 games then we should definitely have cut the gap significantly on them both.

St Mirren have Celtic, Hearts and us in their next 8 games. Kilmarnock have Celtic, Hearts, us and the Huns. Cant see either of them getting anywhere near 20 points from their next 8 games although anything can happen I guess.

[fine-n-dandy]

Killie/St Mirren will look at their remaining fixtures & probably pick us out as one of their easiest. So much so they probably hope we join them in the top six after split over any of the others mathematically possible 🤣

 

Us looking at our fixtures & claiming it’s easy by comparison is quite ridiculous givin how shite we’ve been except for Miovski
