Tony Wonder Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I remember a few years ago when we were so over physical that we beat you 5 - 0 at Tynecastle. Just isn't fair is it. We were incredibly physical under Gary Locke as well. We had monsters like Holt, Walker and Robinson out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheep62 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Aberdeen teams of two seasons ago and now are hugely different. I feel very confident. Three points a given COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 A single win in the last 14 meetings. Just let that sink in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fraser Fyvie Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 A single win in the last 14 meetings. Just let that sink in. Desperately clinging onto that as if any of those meetings are even slightly relevant anymore Comfy 2-0 Sheep win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheep62 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 A single win in the last 14 meetings. Just let that sink in. What's your point ? Celtic apparently hadn't lost a league game for sixty six games when they had scored first until Saturday. Will say it again in case you didn't hear first time Three points in bag for The Dons.

Past records often influence teams lMO.For example if Hibs had won the Scottish Cup in the last 100 odd years they wouldn't choke every time they reach the final.

Guest Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Few wild statements on here from fellow Dandies. Our poor record against Hearts does nag at me for this one despite our start to the season. I'll wait 'til I'm pished on Saturday night before making outrageous predictions that will bite me in the arse. Looking forward to it though, not had an away day in ages.

GTG_03 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Gutted I couldn't get tickets for this, Tynecastle is my favourite away ground to go to despite the results in the recent past. I think we will end our bad run against them though, 2-1 Dons. Rooney last minute winner. Mon then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menzel Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hearts have obviously improved but leak goals. Confident of a result here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insert Amusing Pseudonym Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Rarely get a result at Tynecastle. Hearts over physical approach haa always got the better of us, but have players in the squad now that wont be bullied. Just have to be aware of the diving etc, Hearts bound to appeal for AT LEAST 1 penalty. Would take a draw right now. Aberdeen are really shy of getting a penalty too.

d31 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Should be a great game. Hearts presumably will attack allowing Aberdeen to play their favoured game of counter attacking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-MAN Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Aberdeen are really shy of getting a penalty too. Yeah, fair point I stand corrected. Buzzing for Sunday, what a day it will be. Armagedon eh ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paranoid android Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Vast improvement on our recent performances needed if we're to get anything from this game. (stating the obvious) Oshaniwa is out after throwing acid in that boy's face last week, so it's either Rossi or McGhee at left back. Probably too early for Augustyn or Pallardo to start. Sow could find himself on the bench after an insipid performance last week. Hopefully, Gomis returns, and Walker starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberDon Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hopefully Taylor's cut isn't too bad and he's able to play in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time McGhee played left back he was a disaster, so definitely Rossi I'd imagine.Is the Hayes appeal likely to succeed, I've no seen the tackle?

Is the Hayes appeal likely to succeed, I've no seen the tackle? Central pairing at the back of Ozturk and McGhee, though. Been wondering for a while whether our strongest pairing in the centre of defence might be Augustyn and Rossi, in the unlikely event that everyone is fit. Aberdeen are strong in the wide areas too, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the Hayes appeal likely to succeed, I've no seen the tackle? A 50/50 in which he won the ball before slightly catching the man. Referee shat the bed.

lubo_blaha Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 We're four points clear in third just now so doing a good job of living up to those predictions so far. You do still have to play the two strongest teams in the league though. Moving on, I hope we go with the same line-up as the Celtic game. Ward in goals, solid back four of Logan, Taylor, Quinn and Considine with Logan pushing on down the right flank, Jack and Logan providing the base of the midfield with McLean in front and McGinn and Hayes (if available) in the wide areas and Rooney up top on his own. If Hayes is banned then sub in Flood/Smith/Pawlett/Goodwillie/Parker/Robson and do a bit of reshuffling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenockraver Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Aberdeen have the best side while we have the best individuals probably (just lack aberdeens cohesion) and as a Scottish football supporter first and foremost its good to have challenges at all corners of the table. Only problem is I find it hard to dislike the dons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
