bpdon Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Ahh well. Deserved that. Every single player looked jaded, sloppy, and second best all night. It's rare for a whole team to be so lacklustre. Dreadful hoofballing spectacle. Thankfully Collum took his A-game to keep things interesting. A snip at £23.Is there a toilet in Scottish football that's cosier than the away bogs at NDP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Saints Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 You're in a scrap for second with us - and maybe the new club. New? We're over 130 years old, m8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Raccoon Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Never a penalty. Which just makes all the Dons fans salty tears all the more delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 What a performance. From back to front, every player gave his all. It wasn't a penalty, but we were still brilliant. Canning got it spot on as well. Absolutely delighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laid-back Accie Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Terrific result, every player gave their all. Great start to the match, and got our custom early goal, didn't get a great view of challenge as I was on the other side of the stand, but tbh its about time we got a bit of luck. Can't fault anyone really, an odd slip up, which may have resulted in a goal, but Aberdeen were poor, and despite all their fans whining didn't deserve anything imo. Great result to take into Saturday's fixture, Mon the Accies!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpdon Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Heres his tweet,also put it on pussbook Hamilton 1-0 Dons. Penalty. O'Conner had a hold of the forward's shirt and he went down. 100% a penalty. Didn't realise Collum was on Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lubo_blaha Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 This'll sound like sour grapes but Collum shouldn't be refereeing Premiership football (never mind European or intentional!). He consistently gets the big calls wrong and has probably f*cked over every team on the league on at least one occasion. He's not biased or any nonsense like that, he is just atrocious at his job. ETA: Collum wasn't the only reason we didn't win. We were very, very pish, he did contribute though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarapoa Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Aberdeen were poor, and despite all their fans whining didn't deserve anything imo. Surely we deserved at least a point if neither team were able to score a legitimate goal?If that dodgy Collum decision had gone the other way (only about 20 required to even if up now with him and AFC) then it's us that can sit in, keep shape and counter.That's fitba - and the same reason we didn't really deserve to beat Morton at the weekend as the offside goal changes everything.

RussellAnderson Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Shocker. Totally fucking shocking. We didn't once get the ball down and pass it. Not once. The chances we did have came from playing the percentages. Rooney isn't the striker to do that. He mistimes every header. I feel sorry for McLean because he's being asked to play a role he is simply incapable of. He can't do the defensive work needed to play in that midfield. Maddison was lazy tracking back yet again. Reynolds and O'Connor aren't a partnership. Totally different pages. All this is before I get to the Hamilton performance. Tremendous, in terms of hassling, pressing, won every second ball, every header at the back. Weren't silly in possession, MacKinnon and Saris in particular, outstanding. McInnes needed to recognise that we were losing the midfield battle. You've got the captain, a defensive midfielder sitting on the bench who, along with one or two of the attackers brought on could have changed the shape and given us more composure and purpose in the middle of the park. Instead he chucks on all the lightweights and we continue to be outfought. Appalling tactical decision. The only thought is that Jack was never going to play on the plastic pitch considering his injury, in which case why lie to the fans by sticking him on the bench.

Owsley Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Saw the goal on SSN, the defender does seem to have hold of D'Acol's shirt initially, lets go and then he falls over. Still very soft but I can see why he gave it now. As has been said, outstanding from start to finish. Mackinnon deservedly MOTM but special praise for Gary Woods for an outstanding block from Hayes mid way through the first half. A very different game if that goes in. Well done to Canning for getting his tactics spot on and keeping two men up, though not sure why he picked Kurtaj instead of Bingham but he did well anyway.

milton75 Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I'd rather Collie was corrupt. Better that, which would at least require a degree of cunning on his part, that our teams/FA paying for the services of someone so utterly shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Oh and the Collum decision was a shocker but thems the breaks. If it never happened we'd be sitting here debating a nil nil and the emotions would be much the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redstarstranraer Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Richard Wilson implying in his match report that you can't really fault Collum as he just hadn't quite got going yet when he had to make the call: The referee Willie Collum wasn't allowed time to settle into the game. Only five minutes had passed when D'Acol fell backwards inside the penalty area, and Collum felt there was enough in the contact from O'Connor - even though it seemed minimal - to award the spot-kick. Totally unrealistic to expect a referee to get a big decision right after only five minutes of play it seems. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37686575 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpdon Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Fair enough. What was the general performance like? I think the other posters have summed it up pretty well already - we were mince. No composure, no fight and completely overwhelmed by Accies tenacity (fair play to them - it worked).Despite shuffling the formation and personnel in the second half, we continued with the same hoof ball philosophy. I didn't think we played well on Saturday but tonight we really dipped. That was the poorest I have seen us play this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
