If Killie are stronger at this moment then good for them, let's see where we are at the end of the season. They had a good season last year, finished eight points ahead of us in the league. We were atrocious but reached the final of the League Cup, provided Celtic with their sternest test on their road to Hampden glory in the Scottish Cup. Also made a decent account of ourselves in Europe, with some decent trips for the fans. Maybe Killie will do likewise, although with Delboy's Euro record at Pittodrie, I wouldn't put any money on it. And Killie will have to survive losing their manager mid-season to Sevco. I did say that transfer dealings would potentially change things and that Thelin would need some time to implement his style of play. But I was mainly just giving my opinion on the comment earlier in the thread that asked whether Aberdeen would swap their squad for Killies. I think an argument could be made yes they would as things stand. So the irrelevant question wasn’t posed by myself, I was just commenting on it.

Perfect match indeed. Are we sure that this Barmack character isn’t actually Cormack in disguise, like Mr Snrub in the Simpsons? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 (edited) Tom Ritchie went on emergency loan and won the penalty shootout for Bonnyrig tonight. Saved 3 pens apparently. Edited July 16 by Rodhull 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That cheap steel arrived yet?… Cap in hand, & paying a small fortune to an organisation your fans despise. All because you’re skint & tried to save a quid & it’s cost you a tenner.

Indeed, I should've typed Aberdeen, his actual record at Pittodrie wasn't too bad, only lost two, against Real Sociedad and Rijeka, in 16 matches.

NorthernLights Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 I'm looking for a pub in Glasgow to watch the game next Tuesday. I've seen the Rhoderick Dhu mentioned but most of those are from a few years ago. Is it still a decent pub for Dons fans to visit in Glasgow or are there better alternatives. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a few gatherings of Dons fans for games in the Rhoderick Dhu and the Rock a few years back but don’t think that really happen anymore. Will be plenty of pubs with Premier Sports that will show it, there’s not much other football on that night as well. In the city centre, The Merchant, O’Neills, Horseshoe, Committee Rooms should all have it on off the top of my head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His big results in Europe came away from home - good wins in Groningen, Rijeka (first time) and Stavanger. Other solid wins in Bosnia, Finland and Latvia twice. At home, think the only team seeded above us he beat was Apollon. He was a victim of the tougher qualifying system then after four second place league finishes, and must have been a tad irritated watching Robson walk into group stage football. Maybe he can realise that with Kilmarnock, especially with the Conference play off safety net if they lose the Cercle tie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Guessing there wasn't a mad rush for Roos's services if the Italian 3rd tier was as good as he could get. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think she's even back playing after maternity leave yet so doubt she'll be coming back to Aberdeen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing part of the world to live in though. Lovely area by the coast and close to Croatia and Slovenia too. His new team seem to have a surprisingly good stadium for a third tier side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
