Didn’t see the game due to a family obligation but looks like another strong professional performance.
Saw highlights of 3 of the goals - what a cross fae Ruby, where did that come from? 😳
MacKenzie really is developing into a good attacking full back. Two more excellent deliveries into the box leading to goals - something he was rather poor at in the past. Good stuff loon, keep it up.
Good to see Nisbet score again & fit can you say about Pape. Some boy.
We know Thelin has a clear philosophy & style of play that he’s already embedded with the players who have bought in big time, but for me the best thing about him is the way he’s improved players like Ruby, MacKenzie, Shady Mo and Pape this season.
All 4 vastly better players than before.
I stuck up for Cormack a fair bit over the last couple of years (mainly cause he’s not Milne and therefore is automatically a massive upgrade). He had most of the the off field stuff sorted ages ago. Now it looks like he’s finally sorted the on field side too. Credit to you min.
The naysayers have certainly gone affa quiet - long may it stay like that…

I thought that McKenzie was really good last season and he's definitely moved up a notch or 2 now he's looking up before he hits crosses into the box, next step is to get him to put away the chances he often creates for himself...he could be on 7/8 goals already this season! He would also be a good option to take in-swinging corners from the right. Hope we are pulling out all the stops to get him to sign a new contract.
I’m one of those naysayers that was always criticising Cormack and he thoroughly deserved it with how he was running the club.
He seems to have finally realised that he needs to stay in the background and not interfere in the football side of the club.
That’s possibly down to Burrows maybe?
Whoever it was that told him to quit social media and stay out of the limelight good on them, long may it continue.
I am also guilty of having a constant go at Mr. Colgate and I still think he deserved the criticism.
Maybe at my age i dinna have the same patience that I used to have and I jist wisna buying into all that prawcess bullsh1t.
But credit where it is due and at long, long last things seem to be heading in the right direction.
I also agree with Rico as it appears that finally he has accepted that as a chairman he can be much more effective if he does not get directly involved with what is happening on the pitch and focuses on other parts of running the business where he is strong whilst also staying the fcuk away form social media.
Long may this continue, and well done to all who were instrumental and playing their part in finally bringing a sound manager into the club.
Onwards and upwards.

Yep - I think for whatever reason we’ve got ourselves into a sensible position at last where he’s adding value where he genuinely can, and stepping away from where he’s actively unhelpful.
I think those kind of CEO/founder types have ridiculous over confidence in themselves borne of their success and don’t always recognise the limits of their competence.
If you compare the atmosphere at Pittodrie now to any time under Milne, it’s night and day and I think he deserves huge credit for that. We also have a decent training facility (albeit egotistically named).
Just needs to land a new stadium at the beach…
I’ve just watched the Red TV highlights, and only then discovered that among the Spartans’ subs was Hamish Ritchie, who I voted for as Keith’s player of the year when he was 17.
We’d signed him when the Dons freed him and he was digging in for us, and dominating battle-hardened opposition destroyers as if he had a decade of experience behind him. Janis Ian must have had him in mind when she wrote the title of her hit.
Nice lad; not like Ryan Fraser, like.
