Kilmarnock v Aberdeen

[Jupiter]

That Barcelona team ruined football for me.

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

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?

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.

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

I thought the Darvel loss would have been excised for you with our cup win.


You were at it though and that ones always hurt more. Not near as bad if watching on the telly or listening on the radio.

Is it our manager or is it our chairman that is trying to instill this philosophy?

Hopefully Jimmy can find a happy medium to keep everyone happyish.

I know ive got nobody to blame but myself but on the morning of the game, I posted this on Facebook

? It?s actually a wee bit insulting that the World Famous Aberdeen, winner of two euro baubles & who have had players such as Harper, Miller, Bett & Jess, are forced to play the Dog & Duck on a Monday night in the Scottish Cup

That said, I?m quite looking forward to it. This is the biggest event that?s ever happened to the village of Darvel & the slack jawed yokels will be talking about it for generations.

If anyone is wanting to enjoy this festival of football, it?s on BBC Scotland later. 6-0 Aberdeen at a minimum?

You can imagine how that went down

We'll have to disagree on that one Mason.

Most fans will put up with what comes our way, it's what we do.

More than a good few are not on this planet with their expectations. This is apparent at most clubs sadly.

We even have quite a few fans, growing in number who are coming the c**t regarding our cup win.

Cup was won fair and square and I don't give a f*ck how much lower league opposition we had on the way to winning it.

That really does my flocking head in.

You read some of the posts online last night, it read like we got beat.

There are definitely fans who want us to play pepball and roll over every team we come up against. I dont know if thats just a section of our support or every club has fans like that.

When I was younger I used to watch a lot of the English premier league games and it was quite entertaining in the 90s and early 2000s.

As I got older I stopped watching it but my loon has started to get into so I have been watching some games with him. From what I have seen it is really boring, even all of the bigger clubs are dreadful to watch playing out from the back and all seem to be instructed to walk the ball into the net.

Why anyone would want us to play like that is beyond me.

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! 😂

[Mason89]

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

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.
