swaddon Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 Friday night football fun for the Dons this week as they head down to Lothian to take on Livingston. The action begins at 7:45 pm. I think that Livi's tails will be in the air after their win on Saturday and they still have a chance of staying up. So I fancy a 2-2 draw.

Panda Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 I'd like to think after two wins in a row, the confidence will rise and we'll skelp them. But I'm not sure we have that in us (although, the last time we did do that, it was against Livingston). Would be nice to just get through this split unbeaten, if anything to just lift the pressure on Robinson, who hasn't been cut much slack at all since arriving. 1 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10839-livingston-v-aberdeen/#findComment-282921
Ajja Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 (edited) Livi have to win all their games and hope Killie lose all theirs so not sure they’ll believe they have something to fight for. Only lost 2 in their last 8 so this game won’t be easy and let’s not forget how intolerably shit we’ve been away from home recently. Heading to the bright lights of West Lothian for some fun times and less fun football I suspect. 0-0 with nothing to celebrate but survival. Whoop whoop.

TheDonbytheDee Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 Was supposed to be going down for this one, but being on the Friday night scuppered that. Hopefully get the win and keep the momentum going. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10839-livingston-v-aberdeen/#findComment-282926
Blow.Up.Sheep Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 The dandies will be looking to build on our two wins on the trot and our two back to back clean sheets. It's not going to be pretty spectacle or a great advert for our league but I would take winning ugly 1-0 everyday of the week and I think that is what we will do on Friday with Kevin Nisbet adding to his tally. COYR just fkn win it 0-1 will do just fine Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10839-livingston-v-aberdeen/#findComment-282936
Ajja Posted April 27 Report Share Posted April 27 (edited) Is it wrong that I’ve moved into new territory on this. Last couple of games have been solidly in the ‘just win in any way possible’ territory. The jeopardy has been to heavy to expect anything else. I’m now shifting gear into the ‘it’s almost implausible for us to blow it now’ zone. Ergo, I want a swashbuckling display. Less than 4 goals will be a disappointment. Maybe it’s because I’m attending in-person and feel I’m due some entertainment from these slackers.

Just hoping it’s more lack of confidence and familiarity with system and each other that’s our biggest hinderence rather than just being shit but you are probably right.

manc_don Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 Love the optimism (or is it blind?), Ajja, but think you were closer to the reality before. There is no doubt the fans deserve entertaining after the shit show of this season, but that can wait. Priorities first. They’re fighting for a chance of survival so it won’t be pretty.

Ajja Posted April 28 Report Share Posted April 28 Livi have to win. They have to come out and play. Hopefully that makes a difference. Gives us more space in behind that we might otherwise be afforded by these Designer Outlet shagging bastards.

Radiored Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Livingston is a shithole full of arseholes .... buy some cans/bottles tae drink on the journey ... and some more tae enjoy on the way home. Do not contribute to their economy in any way other than the ticket price tae their 'Lego' stadium. .. fuck it ... bring yer own half time pie an' bring some hot bovril in a flask .... even if ye hae tae splash oot on a good flask! It's nae far awa, so it should be perfectly feasible tae get yer supplies afore ye leave, and hae the means tae keep yer beer cauld enough, an' yer pie/braddie/rowies/soup/bovril hot enough til half time an' beyond. Primarily tho ... let's relegate the fuckers! 1 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10839-livingston-v-aberdeen/#findComment-283061

Absolutely spot on 100% pal. These 5 bottom 6 post split games are all about just ensuring we stay up and avoiding the play off spot. That would have been the priority handed out to Robinson when he was offered the job. Do the first requirement, then we can look ahead to next season. sticking with a pretty ugly game and a 0-1 win for the dandies (Nisbet) Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10839-livingston-v-aberdeen/#findComment-283062
Ajja Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Yup. Reckon we’ll see some experimenting with systems and trying players out in last few games if we get 3 points here. Probably back to 4 defenders and try out a bit of width. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/10839-livingston-v-aberdeen/#findComment-283068

THFN1983 Posted May 1 Report Share Posted May 1 Accumulate the points required for mathematical safety and thereafter it's time for the squad cull, changing formation and blooding youngsters for next season. Lets hope that Robinson isn't swayed into retaining some of the charlatans that have donned the famous for the past 18 months due to getting a few victories in the bottom six shoot out but rather he is carrying out phase 1 perfectly and will do the same with phase 2. Don't think we've a large amount of players out of contract come seasons end so think we'll be spunking a fair wad on paying players to kindly leave so will be interesting which ones we keep on as most of this squad can GTF in my opinion.

TheDonbytheDee Posted May 1 Report Share Posted May 1 I had forgotten we were playing tonight. Is this a TV game, hence the Friday night?

Jute Posted May 1 Report Share Posted May 1 Win or even a point should see us safe as has been said. Also relegates franchise fc back to lower leagues where they belong and will hopefully stay. Shite day out and even living in the central belt getting there on public transport is painful. Be glad at see the back of them. oot work couch couch 2-0 Nisbet and Keskinen.

Looking forward to this one in a way that you look forward to waxing your ball sac because you know it will feel nicer when you’re done…..well I assume that’s the case.

STFU_Donny Posted May 1 Report Share Posted May 1 Sounds contradictory but Livi been pretty good at home from what I’ve seen this season, so not expecting an easy game.
