ZingaliMan Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 3 minutes ago, Merkie84 said: This trope is always wheeled out against Aberdeen, and I find it very strange. Forget Fergie and the 80s and look at the here and now and recent form. Aberdeen regularly have the 3rd/4th highest playing budget in the league. Aberdeen have finished in the top 4 in 9 out of the last 10 seasons. Genuine question ,what do fans of other teams think is a “realistic expectation” for Aberdeen fans given the above? Is the carrot that tasty 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 (edited) After claiming that I 'didn't care' about it, I have now watched Miovski's penalty at different speeds from about three different angles around thirty times and changed my mind about twenty times regarding whether he definitely hits it twice or not, so a degree of sympathy for the VAR officials.

I was 80 yards away and I could clearly see the ball was over the line. VAR team were watching the arse cheek game and never saw it so you can't blame them 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 We didn't deserve a point today. Comprehensively outplayed. If St Mirren had scored one of the half dozen headers they won in the six yard box, or the one on one with the keeper, they wouldn't have to be desperately clutching at some barely perceptible double touch, VAR, the officials, the SFA and my particular favourite, goading. An entire fanbase losing their heads simultaneously is some going. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all they have had a couple of good seasons in the top flight these past few decades. More surprisingly Aberdeen have experienced no major injuries which must have been a worry. Honestly they would have known that getting out of the madam SIMSA with no one going to hospital was an unexpected bonus. Well done the dandies. Still hurting love it 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now and again the cross is laid down not often. These are good times from a Saints point of view. Aberdeen are a good club love you beating the dark sides of Glasgow. These times don't come along a lot for St Mirren so we are living the moment. I'm dangling carrots it's not often we can do that. I have a lot of respect for Aberdeen just let us have our moment. well said sir, I have endured longer than yourself having suffered since 1959 and as you say it isn't often we get to crow so please Mr Aberdonian, gie the man a break 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a post uploaded by your club (I think) on Twitter yesterday where about 5 years ago you won 5-4:against County and won it by S Thompson scoring an overhead flick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy to focus on the positives. We dominated a significantly more expensive squad who required a fluke free kick and a 98th minute penalty that should have been chalked off to escape with a point. Well done for doubling your points tally for the season but I know who should be more worried. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjoey Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Bringing in a bit of lightheartedness. In this day and age of VAR, Angus McDonald trying to suggest the ball hit his chest at the penalty incident was pretty funny. However, Gogic trumped that by lifting his shirt to try to point to the red mark left on his chest where the ball hit him was hilarious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is been between you and the bold Captain for the biggest mile out. You win it with your St Mirren are box office comment. And you can’t see that the “box office” comment was meant to be humour? The fact I had mentioned that other fans not involved in a game against us were commenting on St Mirren games was exactly the point I was making. Given you are a Motherwell fan you just validated my point. Are you still in seethe mode from being dumped out the league cup? Let it go….. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credit where it’s due.What was incredible was that the “Famous” could have won the game with a second penalty for the hand ball against Fraser. I don’t know about other Saints fans but the entertainment from games involving this side has been brilliant. We will enjoy it while it lasts as we don’t have the depth of squads that the big city slickers have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that explains their “fcuking terrible” performance that @Frank Grimes was alluding to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
