    I see we are really tooling up for our preparation for the cup final but maximising our training sessions to 1.5 hours daily. Nobody staying behind to do extra practice.
    The excuse of it only being Tuesday doesn?t wash with me. This could be the very reason the Celtic players find it easy against us. They would have easily doubled that training time at least.

    Yes. I was in Celtic?s training facilities for a few days and that team trained for approximately 3.5 hours (including change etc). We could easily prepare better for matches ourselves. Take a leaf out of their book.

    That will be one of the main reasons they are streets ahead of us football wise.

    I want Aberdeen to have the best manager in the country but Jimmy Turnip is miles off it. There is more of an argument that any other manager in our league with his budget would have us in a better place than we currently occupy.
    I am positive that if Brendan Rodgers was Aberdeen manager and had the funds Thelin had been given he would easily have us higher up the table than where we are.
    I don?t see the fuss for the Turnip. We have poor goalkeepers, poor defenders, poor midfielders and poor attackers. We offer no real threat from corner kicks or set pieces and only play the one way which is easy to read and play against (if you are a decent coach).
    We might win the Scottish Cup but it will be like winning a prize draw because it will only be won out of luck. We aren?t going to win the cup by being better prepared than them. They are streets ahead of us in that respect. They definitely work harder than us and that cannot be argued against. It might register with the posters who refuse to look at what they see.
    Have you changed your name to Red Turnip yet?

    It cannot be changed and I certainly would have changed it

    Well, it's been 16 days since he last won a cup, so if Postecoglu at Tottenham is anything to go by, then Jimmy will be getting the dunt today.

    I will give Jimmy until the next transfer window….i have been extremely generous after his Scottish cup win since I am grateful for seeing this again.
    After this window he will fully have his strong identity and playing staff so there is absolutely no excuses.
    For the record I want the guy to do very well. He is very likeable but football is about getting results. Aberdeen need to be winning and giving themselves opportunities to get more trophies.
    A league trophy won’t go a miss. The 2 from Glasgow are extremely boring with their bickering and pretend hate for each others club. They dive in bed together though to keep the rest at bay.
    What i would give to give them both a bloody nose!
