Kilmarnock v Aberdeen

[TheDeeDon]

To be fair, I'm sure we all thought that Darvel would be a stroll in the park.

Now let's never speak of it again.

They got knocked out the cup last weekend.

How I laughed.

Their fall since that night has been nice to watch.

Yes, I'm bitter! 😂

I’m convinced that their manager and a good chunk of their players, were snorting patsy’s before kick off.

Their fall from that night has been quite spectacular. The celebrations ended a few marriages

Its not the fans that are the problem. Its the managers watching too much tippy tappy shyte on SKY

Fans will put up with anything if the team is winning. Managers sticking to their footballing philosophies regardless of the opposition or how the game is going drives me mental.

Im with you on this.

Pep has a feckin lot to answer for.

Its one of the most painful things in sport watching absolute donkeys who are wholly ill equipped technically (yes, I include our lot in this definition) try to play out from the back.

I dont blame the players, its these wannabe Peps that are the problem.

It really is an absolute cringe to watch.

STOP IT!!!

Gary Neville did a great bit about this a few months back - saying when he finished as a player, the players with the most touches were Alonso, Denilson, Lampard

Last season the highest was Van Dyke and then another rake of defenders.

We’re all now just watching the goalie and defenders pass the ball amongst themselves.

I’ve turned into a complete football philistine screaming boot it up the park far too often.

Dave McPherson & Henry Smith would be superstars in the modern game

That Barcelona team ruined football for me. It used to be countries turned up at World Cups with their own unique style, now every team on the planet tries to play the same way. It wouldnt be so bad if it was entertaining football but it was always dull as dishwater even when it was going well.

I enjoy the football more watching Dumbarton. The teams in that league know they cant play that way, so dont even attempt it. Its fun to watch. When was the last time you watched Aberdeen and it was fun?

You have to make your own fun up at the fitba, no point getting overly worked up about it.

I've learned over the years to keep expectations low when going to Pittodrie and rarely get too upset about what I see on the pitch or the scores. Last Sunday being the exception.

In answer to your question about fun.

I would say the hun game last October, when we won 2-1 and McGrath missed the pen.
Just a great night and not just because we beat the hun.

I like watching the lower league games on a Friday night.

I like the old skool feel of it. I wish we had a team close by to watch in the leagues, but would never support Cove.

I don't mind popping down to Arbroath on occasion.

The good thing about the lower leagues, is the regualr 3pm kick offs on a Saturday.

I miss those a lot, especially with European and International fitba interupting the season.

Not the same going to the fitba on a Sunday.

I do seem to remember regularly laughing at your sustained hatred of Iniesta & Xavi, two of the best plaars of all time

Two of the best players at passing the ball 3 yards 500 times a game. You couldve dropped Ryan Jack into that Barca midfield and nobody wouldve noticed

It was teams trying to copy Barcelona who ruined football. Most of them were terrible at it.

The penalty shoot out in May was pretty good fun tbf!

Yesterday was a perfect example of what we are talking about - Motherwell.

Aye, they knock it about bonnie on occasion, but fuuck me its absolute kamikaze suicide stuff at the back.

Genuinely WTF are they doing.

We must press them high and quick next week cause guarantee they will make a complete arse of it at the back if we do.

[Mason89]

You see teams losing goals from it every week. It?s much easier to do a high press than it is to play through it. To me it?s just completely stupid. So is leaving your back post free at corners
