  1. On the tait thing I think subconsciously people saw him as the replacement for Hendry when in fact. 1. They are different types of players. 2. Hendry was further along in his development, tait is still very young and consistency takes time. 3. Hendry was a far better player. Realistically Mcglynn needs to source a midfielder to replace Tait and a spare for injuries and subs. BRS stats prove he can't come on as a sub and see games out so he's a starter or nothing. The amount of games we lose late goals after being ahead cannot be ignored. Musonda hasn't played in midfield for us or at all this season so we don't know what we have he also has a poor injury record, he's been out since about March.
  2. Ah well the winless run had to come to an end. Who knew Peter grant would be your saviour.
  3. I think the rovers will lose this they are too many injuries in key positions. Mcglyn won't start Poplatnik or whatever reason and Zanatta has been a bit off recently. Dunfermline are on a wee undefeated run at the minute. Plus if they win this it'll buy grant even more time.
  4. The good stuff is now on multi buy from beer hawk which is 15% off if you buy 3 kegs.
  5. I had a bovril at starks Park in August and it must have been the first one I've had in years. It was hotter than the sun but glorious accompanied with a steak pie. It seems strange to drink it in an other setting. A bit like having a manky donner kebab when you're not pished at a taxi rank.
  6. I'll go for Regan Hendry back in the centre of midfield funnily enough. Then up front Brian Graham because he scores when he wants and Craig Brewster who was also partial to scoring the odd goal.
  7. I think we are approaching the tipping point as the tech is progressing well, the range and charge times are evolving and the infrastructure is improving for these. The biggest issue for me is the cost of the car they are still higher than traditional cars but once they drop level it'll be a no brainer for me. The other issue is once we all swap over how do the government claw back the fuel duty? For those that can afford the outlay now live the cheap mpg dream.
  8. It's been an eventful start to the season to put it mildly. That said on the playing side they have got a lot right, Zanatta is some transformation, Berra is strolling through games and now the addition of Ross. I still think we need more depth and the keatings fiasco is just absurd. Off the field the club are displaying some of that ambition and progress can be seen hopefully it comes to fruition. Still think we need better comms especially press releases Taits transfer and Keatings loan just 2 examples.
  9. I'm really at a cross roads here. I'm a long term diesel driver/fan. I like the pull it has the torque and dig along with the range. I drove a tesla recently and f**k me it was fun. Never mind the instant power down and go action. The ipad on the dashboard was instant entertainment. No self drive on this one but I'm intrigued as to what that offers. I was skeptical of electric cars and I still am ti a degree but if they an get the range on them then bring it on.
  10. I'd imagine that part of the deal involves a percentage to Aberdeen of any future sell on fee. But I doubt we will have paid anywhere near the rumoured 100k, with him not playing his value would be depreciating like an old car. BRS makes sense we need numbers he hasn't done a lot wrong in his time here. With tait training with hibs now it looks like he will be away in January.
  11. I think this team set up in this way are an attacking force and very hard for teams to play against which is unusual for a scotland team. We still need a natural goalscorer/poacher because Adams and dykes do similar jobs. We really missed Hanley yesterday because all 3 centre backs were bombing forward and we got caught out a good few times. Gilmour is a class act and second half he was running the show.
  12. Clarke has a tight squad here, there is very little movement in or out and it's probably the closest you will get to a club set up at international level.
  13. That defence is a fucking car crash every one of them has been culpable.
  14. Dykes and Adams together are not the answer neither is a regular goalscorer they both do the same job which is holding up play. Both have shite scoring records.
  15. Surely to f**k there's a better person to take penalties it was a piss poor attempt to copy his last one that barely went in.
  16. How many times will McGinn get us out the shite. We should just play him up front.
  17. This is a game neither team really wants to win. There's f**k all money in this competition and the reward is a midweek trip to the Highlands. Let's put a couple of own goals in and f**k this off.
  18. Interesting comment at the bottom of that article about Keatings coming back in January.
  19. Armstrong was a frustrating player with his set pieces the amount he would waste was rage inducing. That said you couldn't fault his effort and I thought he was immense in the final play off game at dens, he looked like he was trying to win the thing single handedly.
  20. That run by Tumilty is a thing of absolute beauty. I wouldn't have grudged him having a shot from it.
