Motherwell v Aberdeen

[TheDeeDon]

A chance for us to get our away form back on track to where it should be if we have ambitions of winning this league. Our home form has been good, but away form abysmal for quite a while now.

Also be good for us to atone for our one blip at home this season when Motherwell beat us 3-2 and had the freedom of the Pittodrie that afternoon.

No idea how he will line up for this one, but I suspect this three at the back will be given another go and will be interesting if Richardson comes back into the line up after rightly being left out against Thistle in the cup.

1-2 Miovski and Clarkson

We really need to give Motherwell the run around.

Bright going forward but still weak at the back.

I'll say 0-4 but I'd accept 6-7

[stewarty27]

No surprises here, Usual result, Van Veen 2 Aberdeen 0

Sorry but I refuse to dream anymore >:(

Is that statement confined to fitba? >;)

Protect Clarkson and Miovski from the inherent Fir Park brutality, and we should be OK.

In/Oot - Oot

Pre - Beers at home
Post - More beers at home
Prediction - Not feeling optimistic, never do against Mothersmell these days. Confirmed bogey team. Hope we can end that.

[Jormungand]

Ugh, hate playing Motherwell. But they did get moligated by timothy this week so here's hoping Goodwin can figure out how to get the job done. COYR

[RED_JOHN]

We should skelp Motherwell. 0-4 is my prediction or Goodwin must go!

C'mon min, we're allowed a bit of humour.

This one’s gone to VAR (Vintage’s Authoritative Reply), and the decision is “this dick’s aff his fuuckin heed”.

[Jussi]

I have to wonder if he's learned from our last game with them.
I'm not so sure.

My guess a 2-1 defeat

It certainly will be interesting to see what differences he applies to this match. If we get another defeat against them then a lot of questions about our manager will be asked. Hopefully though we get the win and move onto the next match in comfortable peace. I am still going for 0-4. I think Miovski will get back on the goal trail.

[RED_JOHN]

'Everybody look at me!'

How is the Alan Partridge fan club coming along? You both have something in common….naturally unfunny.

[Auldtoontoby]

Hopefully Duk gets in about and occupies their hammer throwers, give Miovski bit space.
1-3,Duk and Miovski double

[donsdaft]

It's Miovski that's been making the space for everyone else.
He might not have scored for a few games, and I really hope he scores today, but he's been well worth his place.

His runs were good on Sunday and the one he made in the lead up to the second goal on Sunday was superb and took two defenders with him. He also benefits from having a second striker alongside him.

He is a good player and the goals will come again, but he is more than just a goalscorer.

Just have to hope our midfield stands up to Motherwell today better than they did at Pittodrie.

[GASC1980]

Straight in and out for me today. Nae beers before or after. Simply must win game today to take us up to third. Expect Paisley saints to beat jutes so we must win. Been chucking it down all morning in Glasgow, miserable day.

[Mason89]

I’m heading there just now. Possibly still pished from last nights celebrations in Cumnock (Boghead Youth Army - hated but rated)

It would be nice if we gave them an absolute hiding

[TheDeeDon]

Same line up as the Hearts game, looks like 3 at the back.

[NaeMairNeeps]

Aberdeen: Roos, McCrorie, MacKenzie, Scales, Stewart, Barron, Miovski, Duk, Ramadani, Clarkson, Richardson.

Substitutes: Lewis, Morris, Besuijen, Watkins, Duncan, Milne, Kennedy, Ramirez.

[NaeMairNeeps]

Yaaasssss!! 1-0 ;)

[RED_JOHN]

Miovski back in the goal trail as predicted.

[TheDeeDon]

Miovski too, even sweeter, but of course he will still be shyte.

[stewarty27]

Yaaasssss!! 1-0 ;)

Waitin for VAR again .... Duk's goal surely .... ... nah :( ... affside.

[donsdaft]

Classy chip from our s’hitey lazy center forward

[bigj]

Red TV commentary sounds way too balanced and intelligent today WTF. I thought it was maybe Motherwell I was getting

[NaeMairNeeps]

B0ll0cks! :(

[irnbru1903]

Our defence is truly woeful. You don't win as many games when you give away simple goals.

[Jupiter]

Will we ever win another away game?

[NaeMairNeeps]

Yaaassss!!! 2-1 :) Doooook!

[Jupiter]

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk kkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!

[NaeMairNeeps]

Duk aff, Kennedy on.

[NaeMairNeeps]

....'at'll dae :)

[Jormungand]

Great win! Quite enjoyed that match, good intensity fae both teams. The Duk fantastic again.

Andy Barge is light years better than Rob McLean

Really chuffed with the win. We've been pants against them lately so hopefully that game has buried this ghost. Hopefully wee'll pump them at Pittodrie and not have to play them a fourth time.

[TheDeeDon]

Be a few on here upset with us winning away from home.

Knew it would be a tough game, but our quality upfront seems to be the difference.

Miovski & Duk seem to be coming along nicely as a pairing.

Just as pleasing was reading the Jute got beat and the Hun drew with 10 man Livi.

That us back up in the third place trophy position.

[Jupiter]

Sevco next week, could be a good time to play them

[pieandbovrilman]

Good result(s) today, well done Dons.

Nae sure. There were great big hoorin gaps where there was little update on what was happening on the pitch as he and Lee Mair (?) newsed about the club in general rather than the action. I had to get my Covid and flu jabs, and when I eventually got a signal whilst wating in the queue, it was at least five minutes before there was a reference to its being 1-1.

Likewise, after the NHS had done their thing on me, it was only when he mentioned that Goodwin was running the clock down by committing a sub that I thought that we might be winning, and quite a time after that before that was confirmed. Just keep us up to date, min.

To be fair, I didn't listen to the whole game as I switched over to hesgoal. However, having had to endure Mclean over the past few years a Trapist monk would be preferable to him

Is that the Hun ‘keeper’s Yorkshire cousin?

Dodgy gag in memory of Barry Cryer.

Could not agree more great win.

Hopefully Napoli go nap against the Deid FC and we can get in aboot them next Saturday

[The_Moog]

Didnt see much of the game as was out of town, saw the highlights and the last 20 mins on a stream, so my comments are limited by that.

Firstly a very good win at a venue where we’ve struggled recently. Dug in for the result so fair play and well
done to all for that.

Lovely run and finish fae Miovski. That will do his confidence a lot of good. Lovely wee through ball fae young Connor too.

Duk very good again. Great header, but its his attitude and enthusiasm I really like. Hes all over the park, chasing back, putting in tackles, making runs. Fabulous team mate to have.

Ramadani did very well for the second goal starting the move. Won the ball, lovely turn to make space for himself and a lovely pass to open up the move - he’s growing on me.

As ever, a few negatives though. Really poor defending on the left yet again for their goal. McKenzie sleeping and not picking up his man fae the throw. We really need to wake up and wise up at the back.

Could easy have been a pen at the end fae that throw. Stewart clearly grabbed the jersey. Goodwin really needs to sort the issue of the lack of height at the back in the next window as its a huge issue.

Finally, and maybe its because I’m “old school” but the way we just sat back and sat off last 20 mins really pissed me off. Yes we got the win, but we spent all that period picking up no second balls, not stringing any passes together and just hacking the ball away anywhere.

Its Motherwell ffs, nae PSG. I just think we should be better than that.

Anyhoo, a very good win that sets us up nicely for Mordor. Should be exactly the time to go there and have a right pop at those fuucks so COYR.

[donsdaft]

Old b’astard alert

What Stewart really needs to be a decent centre half is a sweeper behind him.

[The_Moog]

As long as he’s 6 foot 3…
