Diabolical from Saints. No excuses about Trakai being into their season either. Pathetic from us. 

listened to the game

 

only chance of scoring getting crosses in to Shaughnessy it seems

 

he then gets his chances and misses

 

Tommy Wright, said it himself again after

 

at this level (the UEFA cup 1st qualify round) ie, the lowest possible level in European competition, we don't have the quality to break teams down

 

sure its all been said before, but should we not be changing our style of play from big men and crosses to develop that creativity

Yes, but you need the players to do that. And the fans have to accept that style of football, which sadly your average punter won't do.

apparently the academies are all about passing and creativity

 

and soon youngsters passed on to the clubs it's all about physicality, eg your Alex Rae, Ricky Sbragia mentality

 

there's almost no point in having the academies if the work they're doing is going to get smashed apart

It's not and hasnt been for some time

There are far too many pundits, reporters, airwave time, backpage headlines deluding us all about something that is ultimately shite.

 

watch out you'll have the board bravehearts accusing you of high treason (and the usual comments about masturbation)

Counting down the hours now. 

15000+ sold, with them selling in sections, should be a decent atmosphere hopefully. 

Also not long now to find out what clown stewards are appointed to section Y this season, if nothing else, you get a laugh from them.

Aberdeen at home in the second round this evening.

Word is that tickets are selling very well so hopefully a great atmosphere.

Hoping the new lads have had enough time to have some understanding with each other.

Can't see GMS starting. Could see GMS involved if the scoreline dictated it, but would prefer he was an 'unknown' to them in the second leg after a week's training with his new team.

(McInnes does like a natural wide player, however.)

A clean-sheet win would be ideal of course.

I'm going 3-0.  scarf.gif

Around `17,000 expected at Pittodrie tonight. 

Great to see that despite losing Hayes, McGinn and Taylor, there's still so much positivity and enthusiasm within the support. :ok: 

Aberdeen 3-0 Siroki Brijeg

Fingers crossed for you. 

Hoping the third bad thing is Celtic going out to Linfield instead. ?

What did the dons fans make of it?

Do you reckon with another week preparation they can take them over there?

Need to score... ?

1-1 flattered us. We had our foot on their throat for about 15 mins after we scored. However, we were running on empty after an hour. 

Rooney and McLean predictably sh1t. Christie very good and a fit Stewart is going to be excellent.

A tiring performance, but we should have enough to beat them, but will probably need to score 2. Great finish from Christie and almost scored another beat the end. Maynard could've had a hattrick after coming on and Rooney was left on far too long. We were badly exposed down both wings in the second half, but hopefully another week getting to know each other will help that. GMS had some good touches and balls into the box, which will hopefully produce goals. 

Haopy enough, but should be more comfortable going away next week. 

They are a typical European team, rolling about, time wasting, grabbing. Just cheating bastards really, Scottish teams don't know how to play against teams like this and can't do it themselves.

Usual excuse not available then. 

Still feel the sheep might just squeeze through.

If not this could be an utterly shambolic year/month for our teams.

They seemed fitter than us, but yeah, I think we will have enough to get through.
