Just synonymous in my mind with total and utter shite. The 2008/09 was one of my least favourite. I remember that kit feeling incredibly cheap and the velvet-like material the badge was made from just added to the cheap look and feel. I was quite pleased when we eventually dumped Nike/JustSport. The JustSport gear was bloody awful, I remember getting a jacket for Christmas and before New Year it was falling to bits. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLights Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 1 hour ago, betting competition said: The issue isn't the strikers but it is more the wide players this season not creating chances for them. The Terrace podcast recently did their top 12 wingers in the Premiership and they said that in the 2016/17 season, Hayes and McGinn were the 1st and 3rd ranked players in terms of crosses. I wonder where our players this season ranked, I'm going to guess our top player was a lot lower then 3rd thats for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strongly disliked this one, too: Such a lazy design. Also synonymous with Mark Kerr, inexplicably sporting the captain's armband, giving it large to the South Stand on a freezing midweek night as he scored the opener in a dire 2-1 loss to Jimmy Calderwood's relegation-threatened Kilmarnock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of posting that top and the links with Mark Kerr was one of the reasons too. I'm sure I have this one in the bottom of a drawer somewhere... As far as I can tell it was never worn in a competitive fixture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 The squad from that 2-1 defeat against Kilmarnock: Grassi, Ifil, Kerr, McDonald, Young, Duff and Mackie in the same starting XI. Paton and Robertson the game-changing substitutions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootingboots Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Love the new top. Some of those tops from the McGhee/Brown era are atrocious! Look like something Dundee United would bring out just now in their colours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paton and Robertson the game-changing substitutions. That has got to be the worst group of players to ever play for the Dons. We are spoiled now though, to be honest. Looking at this team which finished 4th under Calderwood, and there's only 3 players who would make it into the current 11; Mulgrew, Severin, and Aluko. Even then, Aluko was probably even less consistent then GMS, and Mulgrew would only get in because we prefer to play our best left back in midfield. Seve would be class in this squad though...

Probably between Ifil and this bloke for the most appalling centre-back I have watched in an Aberdeen jersey: 4-1 down against Utd in the league cup semi, 10 mins left to salvage something and Tango sends on Dave Bus. The guy sitting next to me said “I genuinely fucking want to kill Jimmy Calderwood”. Couldnt argue at that point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmothecat2 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Looking at names like Davide Grassi is making me really appreciate this team. I remember a game at Tynecastle where under no pressure whatsoever Grassi kicked the ball out for a corner, causing understandable anger from the Dons support, which led to Zander Diamond applauding the clearance as evidently he thought that was a better choice than Grassi actually having possession anywhere near the Aberdeen goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only pro I've ever watched and honestly thought 'I could do better than that.' I happened to be working with some Swindon fans when the Jerel Awful transfer came about. They thought he was great, and that he'd pyss Scottish football He was fans player of the year one year, and almost Swindon's captain. He was also their longest serving player just before he left, making over 200 appearances for them! He is my top pick for worst footballer to play a reasonable amount of games for Aberdeen. Genuinely the only professional football player, I can recall that didn't know how to kick a football. Way worse than the likes of McQuilken, or Ritchie 'Roberto Carlos's Byrne, Leon Mike or Dave Bus. JESUS FVKKIN H CHRIST HE WAS BAD. We signed him for two years on the basis of one friendly appearance I think. WTF! Yours, getting angry at the thought of him. aDONis Did I mention how FVKKIN SHIT he was. Davros from Dr Who had better ball skills. Davros Ifil Edited May 15, 2018 by aDONisSheep 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 oi these are my teenage idols you're bashing here! Severin, Miller, Mackie, Young and Diamond were some of my favourite players. Lee Miller especially, what a guy. If there was an award for Most Free Kicks Won per 90 mins.... I can't find a single Lee Miller goal for Aberdeen on youtube. For shame. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
