Dundee v Dons Match thread

[RED_JOHN]

We all like a moan about the team at times and the reality is that it is truly deserved. I am sure every single one of us would prefer we win all our matches but alas…no chance.
I myself am currently scunnered. I made no attempt to watch the match at the weekend (I see every match we play when possible) as I didn’t like our choice of new manager and I think the chairman is full of absolute sh!t. I don’t even like the majority of our players
I will still follow the Dons through this time though and probably when the new season is about to get underway it will reignite a lot more enthusiasm from myself.
It’s great being a Don’s fan really

I have to admit I do enjoy observing big girlie flounces when the “I’m OUTRAGED” lot find the heat in the kitchen just a little too much. A fine excuse for the smeddum-deficient to scurry back to the golf course where they’re more at home.

Some might accuse the flouncers of “poovery”. Not me, like.

OK, Ah'm jist gan tae pitch in here .... Ah'm a fkn Don til Ah die. Ah dinna get tae games cos A. Ah'm skint, and B. cos Ah'm usually giggin somewye oot in the sticks on match days, but followin the games whether on ma phone in the gig van, or at hame whilst getherin ma gig gear tigither, is as much part o' ma life as breakfast/denner/supper.

Even fan we're sh1te, they're MY sh1te ... and fan we're sh1tee ... why bother? Well ... there's really nae 'bother' involved. It's nae like we're haein tae gie blood tae keep oor team alive. In my lifetime, Ah suffered the Bonethrone years ... enjoyed the McLeod resurgence ... enjoyed the McNeill honeymoon ... then celebrated the Fergie-fest. ..... then got back tae the sufferin.

But haein seen sufferin turn roon tae glory ... tho it took near a decade (it must be said) .... Ah ken it's possible!

OK, the game has changed, again and again, but it might well change again and again - as might well might oor fortunes.

Ah think Ah'm prob best described as a 'reserved' happy clapper, so Ah'm nae aboot tae hand oot free turd polish ... but FFS if ye actually dinna like AFC ... go support fkn Cove Rangers or some ither cυnts and lose yer urge tae 'doomangloomerise' this site - cos yer nae fkn helpin!

The Scottish game might also be sh1te, but it's far we are ... Ah've nae the slightest interest in ony ither country's leagues ... cos 'at's far we're nae!

As Ah said, Don til Ah die ... happy clapper, nae a gloryhunter. If yev said 'that's me finished/had it' mair than twice, then follow up an' fυck off ... rather than believe if ye say say it enough ye'll tak ithers wi ye. It's nae an election, nae vote required, jist scuttle aff an' leave it tae folks fa actually gie a fυck.

We'll welcome ye back fan we're lookin forward tae a final or regarded again as 'title challengers' and ye've summin good tae write which maks us feel good tae read.

Over and out.

After two seasons out I am back in and season tickets for next season have been bought. As much as I tried to convince myself otherwise I missed it. Not sure why, but I do.

Nae too sure on the copying and pasting m'larky but that's a mighty fine post Naemareneeps or fitever your name is.
Finest one on here in many moons.
They are def our keech and its nae like a wife, you canna change them......... unless your wired up a wrong.

[InversneckieDob]

My interest has waned, that's for sure, but I think that's mair to do with the general state of fitba and my personal circumstances rendering travel to games more infrequent.
I'll never stop loving the Dandies, I've followed them through sh1tier times than this, with ****ier people enjoying custodianship.

The fiscal lunacy of Wendy fitba angers me massively.

The systemic pandering to the cheeks here gars my erse rin clear watter.

When Sevco were ushered straight into the league with no pretence at an application process, when we were complicit in keeping corrupt voting.......chances missed to improve the game all over.

The corrupt refereeing, t'was ever thus.
Now they don't even pretend.

But I'll still stick around.

[NaeMairNeeps]

Dinna get ma wrang guys ... tho Ah stand by every previous word. Ah fully understand folk gettin pissed aff fan we (aye WE) dinna come up wi' the goods. Ah dinna hae a problem wi gaein the team pelters far it's due. Ah tend nae tae post fan Ah'm pissed aff wi a particularly sh1te result, unless Ah think Ah ken fit could hae been done better ... but Ah've done the pelters for pelters sake on occasion.

My problem is wi folk fa fkn continuously say they are 'oot' but canna find the fkn fire escape!

Me? Ah'm in ... aa the fkn wye ... top six, bottom six, championship, div 1 fitivver. Ah'm Aiberdeen born, bred an' fυckin toasted! ... Ah follow only one team ... Ah'm red, yer dead Ah'm dancin on yer head! ( though, jist noo, Ah'm cheerin on Arbroath in atween )

Ah dinna hae an English team ... nor a fkn Spanish/Italian blah blah ... Ma toon, Ma country ... fυck abody else.

Oh, and if Ah'm comin across as a tad aggressive ... Ah'm nae apologisin, but the last couple o' days Ah've been oot an' in the recordin studio daein an album wi ma punk band ... so Ah'm kind up for screamin in yer fkn ugly coupons!

In today’s Pressreader paper it says that ex-Dundee striker John Duncan has died aged 73. Great Proper Mannies’ fitba player, and TMSTID shot themselves in the foot when they lost him to Spurs, and his upfront partner (Jocky Scott) to us in the same year.

Duncan scored the opening goal in my first away Dons match (the 67 and 70 cup finals excepted) on 01.01.1972, but Joe Harper scored a penalty to equalise in the second half. You had to be a good player to get past Tam McMillan and Martin Buchan in them days.

Ach.

[InversneckieDob]

Ach that's cr@p news.
He managed......Chesterfield (I think?) and got them to the semis of the FA Cup.
They'd have likely got through but for a scandalous reffing decision as I recall.
