  1. Interesting debate trying to be raised by Pep Guardiola about Man City not selling out their semi-final allocation, and questioning why all the semis are down at Wembley. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cvg7ljpyv7yo A different conversation in that they have suitable stadiums elsewhere to use. But some of the ticket prices are shocking, some up to £150. For me, semis should never be at Wembley or Hampden anyway, unless there's little alternative (ie Tottenham v Arsenal or Rangers v Celtic). Again, the alternatives up here probably don't help us much - we'd have had to play Hearts at Murrayfield, Ibrox or Celtic Park. Anyway, despite Pep standing up for the little guy, I hope the two-time European Cup winners Forrest beat them. Not because I particularly give a shit about English football, but because before the semis I put on a Forest & Aberdeen cup double at 40/1 odds.

  3. For me it’s the other way round. I find that if Morris is up against a pacy full back he can’t easily get the better of at the first time of trying, he’ll retreat into his shell and not bother trying unless he gets a head start. Keskinen never seems to let failure bother him. If it doesn’t work first time, he’ll keep going at it. End product isn’t always there, but he’s still usually the player on the pitch most likely to produce something from nothing. If he can find consistency in his output, he’ll be a multi-million pound player.

  4. And then you've got to cut and splice it. The VHS not the pigeon before the animal rights crew jump on board

  5. I've seen them do it once or twice before, when they are highlighting a particular player and showing several of their opportunities, some of which might not have made the cut, but never seen it when discussing a whole team's performance. When you saw some of the chances shown from other games too, it just adds to the evidence that it was a poor edit. In fairness, it's a very tight turnaround to get a pigeon with a VHS strapped to it to Glasgow for 19:15.

  6. Don’t agree, I thought we played very well. You have to factor we were playing the on form team who have beaten Celtic and rangers, plus hearts and united, on their run too. Oh, and us. Not sure we could have done more. We were suspect from crosses/corners as usual and they had 3 headers they could have scored, but we dominated possession, created chances, were defensively solid, and did a good job keeping Boyle quiet. morris is back to me thinking he’s our super sub, and gueye is not quick thinking enough. Both good to bring off the bench. I’d start okkels and McGrath next week, but with those two not here next year, I feel these are two legit ‘must’ signings this summer. Our main priority for sure, provided we sign nisbet! its a palaversa polvara dilemma for me. Clarkson is playing well and deserves to start. Palaversa isn’t playing badly, covers a lot of ground, and sits in. Does a defensive job. Although Clarkson is deep too and has done more recently defensively. Polvara definitely offers drive from midfield and is much more attack minded. Another good performance yesterday. Think he scored a similar goal against hibs last year too, was unlucky with his well worked chance. Is jimmy brave enough to go with Clarkson and polvara next week?

  7. Aye, I think something went wrong with the editing there. They even showed a previously unseen highlight where Bushiri blocked two shots in a row in the post-highlights piece, which was easily as relevant as any of the highlights shown. Peter Grant is a simpering imbecile. Barely literate fuckwit. He was there to fulfil the need to have a "Celtic man" on the show. In fairness, finding a literate one would have been extremely difficult.

  8. Absolutely horrific highlights package from our supposed national broadcaster. Any one tuning in to that without having been at, or watched via a stream would be under the impression that Hibs controlled every aspect of that game until our disallowed goal. How the fuck they found so much to show from a team without a single shot on target is beyond me Whilst I'm at it, don't think Peter Grant (cunt) likes us

  9. Just a shame we can’t add that to our list of casualties this season!

  10. Pretty sure the unfair second yellow on devlin last week was the reason Dundee won today.

  12. I notice that you didn't even attempt to tackle the problem of Dabbagh's footedness.

  13. As pointed out by the Here we go podcast. Here's John Beaton putting Aberdeen down to 10 men in a semi-final. And here's us winning it anyway.
