Aye. Trigger the extension at half time.

He’s good, but he’s no Jack McKenzie

Cracking ball in from Rubi

A job very professionally done from The Dons.

Looking forward to seeing Palaversa in red until the summer of 2027 unless we decide to cash in

Sokler doing his best not to score there

Should probably go down as one of the worst misses pittodrie has seen.

I remember Miles Storey.

That was my benchmark. If the keeper doesn’t knock it in I think it’s up there.

That was possibly our most complete performance of the season.

A very enjoyable night.  Palversa is a lovely player.  Strange game, felt like it could easily have been 6 or 7-0 but I don't remember the Spartans goalie making loads of saves.

Pleased that we were always looking for more rather than trying to coast through the game, like we did against Clyde and Bonnyrigg Rose last season. Clarkson, with the exception of his corners, was excellent. Nilsen and Palaversa probably won't be the right balance for most games, but no doubt that Palaversa can play. 

Jimmy definitely in selection headache territory, in more than one position.

I think the Dubious Goals Committee would be reallocating Sokler's goal to the Spartans goalkeeper, although suspect both will be happy for that not to be the case.

If that hadn't gone in off the keeper we might have seen Sokler move behind Ambrose in the pecking order. He badly needs a proper goal. 

Palaversa looks really good - it'll be a real headache for Jimmy when he has to pick two from him, Heltne Nilsen, Shinnie and Polvara

Very enjoyable early evening. Strolled through the match until 15 minutes before the end, when Spartans seemingly decided to start playing. Palaversa, McKenzie, McGrath and Clarkson, as someone else said, apart from his corners, were the stand outs for me. Could have easily scored 8 or 9, but credit to Spartans for keeping going.
