RussellAnderson Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Big up the home tie for Glasgow based dandies. Favourite away day for myself, Star n Garter early doors, short walk home. Shame I'm working after. 2-0 Dons, May and Stewart.
Nightmare Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Greg Stewart cutting inside gives me the fear. Thought we wouldn't have to deal with this nonsense again. Dons win.
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Last few seasons Firhill has been good to us. We're still nowhere near hitting top form, but I think we'll have enough for Thistle next week. 2-0 Dons.
Illgresi Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Yesterday showed up the glaring problems in our squad imo, in the form of Reynolds, Considine, and trying to shoehorn Tansey, Shinnie, McLean, and Christie into centre midfield. The sooner Arnason gets match fit the better. Having said that, I'd be confident enough that our second string team should be beating a good few teams in the league. In my opinion our strongest 11 (when match fit) is: Lewis Logan Arnason O'Connor Shinnie Tansey McLean Stewart Christie Mackay-Steven May That would leave: Rogers Harvie McKenna Reynolds Considine Storie Campbell Wright Maynard Ross Rooney Bit heavy on the kids, but enough to scud a few past Partick imo. We really need another defender though, if Shay gets injured or suspended we're going to suffer.
naegoodinthedark Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Taking the Bairns to their first away game. Thought that Glasgow's premier football team would be a good start. Normally go by car or bus, but will be on the choo choo for this. Jags fans, what's the best way to get there from Queens St? Taxi expensive? Any good child/dons friendly pubs near (quality parent)?
Fuctifano Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Subway from Buchanan St (attached to queen st) to St George's Cross might be cheapest. 10-15 minute walk from there, probably 15 with kids. I'd guess a taxi would be about a tenner. The bar in the ground (located in main stand) lets away fans in and also kids but the wait to get served can be horrendous. The Woodside on Maryhill Road also lets away fans and kids in but can get very busy when a team with a decent support comes through. As for the game, I suspect this'll be another "play well enough without deserving anything" effort, 2-1 defeat with Storey getting a late consolation for us. Though if I see Ryan Edwards is at right back like the last time Aberdeen came to Firhill I'm backing Aberdeen -3 again.
Glenconner Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Walk round to Hope St, three streets away from Queen St Station and take any bus going to Maryhill. Follow the crowd and you'll end up in Tesco.
BillyAnchor Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 We really could use something from this. 1-2 defeat it is with another clear penalty shout turned down.
Nightmare Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 If someome could post a facepalm pic right about now, that would be great.
Girth Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 I'll be at this. Best place in the ground for atmosphere and best boozers near by?Thank you.

Get the subway to either St George's Cross or Kelvinbridge and choose one of the many bars on Great Western Rd. Off the top of my head Cooper's and Munro's are pretty civilised places serving food so I'd imagine they're child friendly during the day. 15 min walk or cheap taxi from there.
Cerberus Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Well, well, well somebody's copied my thread name on WAT. A clear case of intellectual property theft.Someone is stealing your thoughts.
AR851903 Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 We need to bring a much better level of performance in this one than Saturday. Would like to see Stewart start as I felt he changed the game against Dundee. 12/12 going into the break would be excellent considering we haven't started to play yet. Miles Storey for a token "come back to haunt us goal" in a 2-1 win for the Dons.
shootingboots Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 Would like to see a big improvement on performances so far this season. Scott Wright hat trick.

John MacLean Posted August 21, 2017 Posted August 21, 2017 This is the game I'm missing this season. Have headed down to Liverpool for Beatleweek (don't judge) each of the last 5 years and miss a game. Each of the last 4 years it's been a bloody home game. Can't they give us Ross County away the weekend I can't go? Anyway, I'll pretend I'm not going to pay any attention to events in Maryhill until full-time but will spend the time between 3pm and 4:45pm refreshing every source possible and then try to convince myself I'm not bothered by the 2-0 defeat!

Miles Storey for a token "come back to haunt us goal" in a 2-1 win for the Dons. Agree with this - it felt disjointed on Saturday and the balance in the midfield especially isn't there yet.I like Tansey but I'd like him even more if he held his position. We were wide open between the defence and midfield at the weekend although in his defence I've never been convinced he's a like for like replacement for rat.2-1 us
