Willy Nilly never kicked a ball for us and he was just as bad as all the other signings.

And he wasn't that tall was he? Must be one of the best headers of a ball per inch we've seen in the last 60 years.

Do you know how he was played at his previous clubs? Though you would think that Clement would know where he is best suited.

Probably because you've seen it fail so many times.

Not for me it ain't. I want to see us prosper in a truly competitive league. If we want silverware we could play 11 pub teams every season and be bored as hell. Didn't you get a frisson when we beat Betis the other night? I expect to beat St Johnstone every season; Derek Adams said the other day that the SPL is a hundred times worse than England's League Two (!) If we were to compete v say, Gothenburg or Bruges or Malmoe, we would have a competitive league which would in turn attract sponsors. And spectators.

Why do you say that? We rank pretty high with our coefficient right now. I'm not talking about the top tiers.

Would we have any chance of being involved in this? It's supposed to be based on sporting merit... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67787981

Pretentiousness is not new. Arsenal once had 2 forwards called Radford and Kennedy who were both good in the air. There was also a football writer called Brian Glanville who, reporting on an Arsenal game in which the tactic of pumping the ball up the two forwards was failing, stated that Arsenal eventually took the advice of the Button Moulder in 'Peer Gynt' and decided to go 'round about.' I frequently imagined Arsenal fans shouting, "Don't forget what the Button Moulder said, lads!"

Clement would surely get invited to the High Table though? For heaven's sake he uses words like 'synergy'! What's wrong with 'the boy done good'?

He wants to stay! So...let's make it happen. We will surely recoup what we have to outlay.

God knows what will happen when we DO play well and win - you will need CPR I guess!

I've led a very sheltered life!

🤣 Where on earth did you dig that up from?

'Soft free kick'? Carter-Vickers wrapped a leg around the forward.

This is a monumental result for us! Win our 2 games in hand and we are top without having to play them. Make sure we get at least a draw when we visit Hell's kitchen.

I want him to partner Lundstram tomorrow: together they will take care of Shinnie et al.

Can you elaborate Scott? Don't think I know about that.

He was a revelation. We've only seen him in piecemeal fashion before but Thursday night he took to his assigned role perfectly.

Exactly. Was once a trophy we took for granted. For Aberdeen hubris is a dish best served hot.

Perversely, I'll be happy if it goes to penalties on Sunday; we've the best goalkeeper and the best penalty taker. It's a horrible way to lose.

Just out of interest have we got our bus booked?

Brilliant. And we are not owned by sportswashing Middle Eastern states. We've struck a blow against the so-called 'elites' who are nothing more than balance sheets assembled by AI.

He wants to stay apparently. Out of contract at season end.

This is up there with Dortmund and Leverkusen away. Can't think of others right now.

Green and White shirts do it for us!
