logie skid boys Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Mcgeough seems to be getting hibs fans in a state. majority times he struggled against us but then so did rest them. if it’s true then he is obviously here to play the role jack the c**t played. which we have missed. no doubts about that . rumoured 4 year deal would be big gamble . one full season last few years? . i think we’re nae after him but no doubt he would do a decent job in front the back 4. . hopefully our business is done this week . . would like wilson signed up . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

resk Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Any of you fucking mugs going to the Caley game at Borough Briggs? I presume both teams just couldn't be arsed going all the way through to Inverness/Aberdeen?I don't really do friendlies. Pretty sure the last one I was at was the one against Coventry where Peter Ndlovu scored a hat trick prompting Strachan to take pity on us and sub him off at half time, and then also sub himself on for a 15 minute cameo at the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might head along just because I like BB. We'll likely get pumped comfortably but it will give the players, management and fans an idea of where we are. We also have St Johnstone and Hearts in the next week or so, so a nice change from the usual HL sides. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Used to go to friendlies a lot when I was a kid. I think it was cos my Dad was a cheapskate. Met Preece, Anderson, Calderwood and Nicholl at Borough Briggs after a win over Elgin there 2004, just after he’d been appointed. Got them to sign my top. Wouldn’t go now unless it was really convenient. I did go to the Viking Stavanger away match a few years back, although that wasn’t a friendly, that was a major European trophy (the Energy Cities Cup). My dad was staying out there at the time and I thought I might as well time it for when the Dandies were over. Second time I went to visit him, we watched Ronny Deila’s Strømsgodset team fail to clinch the title away to Trømso up north of the arctic circle. Then we went to watch Biffy Clyro, which was pretty sweet. I saw about 50 folk travelled to Cork to watch us play out a 0-0 with Connagh’s Quay Nomads. Sometimes I think I’m a bit obsessive about football, but then I see those lads. Fair fucking play to their partners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

logie skid boys Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Loved the friendlies back in the day .. with europe ties not starting till September the summer was great for trips. Rotterdam tournament in 88 . missed the 87 away tie with with them which was gutted about . Couple years before that i think was Torquay and Exeter and Plymouth. . early 90s was another great Dutch trip for games .. and late 90s was St Pauli away .and played them again years later . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheep62 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Best friendlies I've been to were way back in 1981when we held a pre season tournament featuring Dons, West Ham Southampton & Man Utd. We played West Ham first, Man Utd played Southampton. Think the organisers were looking for an Aberdeen v Man Utd final but didn't quite work out that as Southampton beat Man Utd on the Saturday. In the final we put five past Southampton during a 5-1 win to take the £15,000 first prize. Not too sure how many pre season friendlies I've been to since to be honest but certainly not many 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said I feel no ill will to Aberdeen fans. #supportyerlocal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarapoa Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 early 90s was another great Dutch trip for games .. I remember this well, due to the excitement of just having subscribed to Aberdeen Cable and four channels becoming 32.Madonna (Vogue), Happy Mondays (Step On) and Deee-Lite were never off MTV.But Channel 9, Screensport, was this random sports channel that would show all sorts, and took the Enschede tournament in the summer of 1990.I’ve never been one for friendlies, but watching our slick team of the time in their JVC strips overcoming Dortmund, Bilbao and the hosts to lift some silverware was rather enjoyable.If you add in those Energy Cities cups then we have an impressive haul beyond these shores. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
