Maybe to an impoverished Lanarkshire based weegie it is

And how many points did we finish behind Rangers? At what stage did we reach in the domestic cup competitions? All things you are looking past because it doesn’t fit the narrative you are continually trying to push. And how can we have done better if only 2 European competitions were in existence? What an utterly fucking stupid suggestion We finished last mate….last. If the ECL existed last season we wouldn’t have even qualified so how can it be better? You used to be quite balanced and reasonable poster and i held you in pretty high regard but recently you have become a boring anti-Ange cheerleader repeating the same shite over and over again.

Also won the 1st domestic trophy of the season…you know the one you haven’t won in 12 years not to mention got ourselves into pole position for the automatic champions league place. Not too bad for a 1st season plus a healthy set of financials too. Europe will come

That he did we got papped out to Artmedia Bratislava getting beat 5-0 in his 1st game. Oh how I remember the banter and how much of an unmitigated disaster they said he was going to be. He then in the next 2 seasons took us to the last 16 of the Champions League and beating the likes of Man U and Milan. Not that I expect us to be doing this next season however give him and this squad time to gel properly and I’m confident we will be better

All very well and good however can you remind me what happened the season prior which would be the most relevant season as to where Ange had to build from?

I think we are rotating a little too much. We don’t have any more injuries however the starting 11 has 3 or 4 changes every game Next 3 league games are huge particularly next week away to Livi

Yeah it’s a shame, remember him in the Dortmund team with Lewandowski, Blasz, Aubameyang etc and he was an outstanding defender. Hes done and i can’t believe i’m saying this but makes big Starfelt look decent

Youre an absolute fucking melt of a poster, that’s bang out of order

This your attempt at an “intelligent” retort? And as i said earlier i wanted Rangers to go through so aye you chalk up yet another swing and a miss

For this? Don’t be stupid ffs They aren’t that far behind Bayern so the last thing they will do is bin their manager for this.

Vatican Assisted Referee decided no goal

That was never a foul Still want VAR?

Hummels oh dear oh dear

No pal they aren’t a one off, as there have been many small clubs like Bodo who punched way above their weight in Europe and there will be more in the future. So most definitely not a one off

Again it’s not suggesting Bodo are an anomaly is just an excuse to stop you facing into why your own club aren’t doing better. I know mines should do better, much better however this season I’m willing to take the hit to allow the manager a couple of transfer windows to build a squad that’s entirely his own. Next season I will be expecting much better from us. As someone else said Bodo are a team well coached and drilled, organised and confident with zero superstars in their team. They just done us proper, why can’t you? And the reverse of that is also true Bodo are beating teams with much larger budgets than theirs like us and Roma so again why can’t you?

No it’s not, you don’t need to win the league to qualify for Europe in Scotland. Aberdeen have the resources to be the best of the rest……. And you are not. I don’t imagine Bodo will have resources that are much different from Aberdeen so yeah keep making excuses buddy. Your club like mine can do better…much better

Has it stopped Bodo?

If we drop the league I’ll be hurting especially now that we have no excuses left if performance levels drop. I’ve never hid the fact that I could take or leave Europe this season. We weren’t good enough in Europe this year, simple as that but we kind of knew that from the very first game this season that we probably wouldn’t be good enough to do well in Europe this season.

You keep mentioning making excuses however isn’t that what you are doing by saying you can’t compete with Anges chequebook? Well tbf neither can Bodo however here we are.

Yeah we did get slapped, have we suggested any differently? But also doesn’t change that you care more, much more about laughing at Celtic than you do about seeing Aberdeen get their shit together and maybe contribute something themselves. Odd mentality

So it’s the league that’s holding you back?

If Bodo can do this what’s stopping Aberdeen? You can sit and point and laugh at Celtic but completely oblivious to the fact you have contributed next to f**k in Europe in decades. Whose fault is that?

We have had plenty of great results in Europe in the past 20 years bud. This narrative of not winning a knockout tie whilst not ideal isn’t the be all and end all. And don’t forget if we don’t win the leagues we don’t get entry into these competitions. I would think though you would have bigger issues to worry about. How have you done in Europe in the past 20 years?

I guess you don’t get much enjoyment throughout a season so I’ll let you have that one.
