Match Thread Aberdeen 2 - 0 Hibs

Hibs defence is hilarious. 

No much wonder Clarke called up Consi after seeing Porteous close up in training

Need to get Wright and McLennan new contracts before someone sniffs around offering a pre contract to them. 

Fully agree get them signed up asap

So Hernandez is now 4th or 5th choice right wing back?

McLennan, Kennedy, McCrorie, Logan... 

Perfect chance to give him a bit of game time, surely? 

McGinn and Hedges have also played right wing back this season. 

Gary Woods is ahead of Hernandez in the pecking order for that role as well I think.

Porteous is a liability, a cart horse.

Dives in left right & centre. 

[Superdon!!!11oneoneuno]

If we've actually paid 800k for Hernandez someone needs their neck stood on.

[Ten Caat]

Hernandez must be utterly shite in training if we are 2 goals up, have a right sided wing back injured and needing to come off. And McInnes sends for Dyno_Rod instead of him

Or a knee

[aberdeen1970]

Ah well, 8 wins out of 12. McInnes will say that's a good record. 

Which it is. If you win 2/3 of your games you'll be on track for around 80 points. 

Would be nice though to let this team off the leash a bit more.  Getting the 3 points is paramount but sitting back for 60 minutes at home is just a bit too much for me. 

[Ramandu]

Hedges MOTM for me. Maybe it's his stupid hair, but he's popped up everywhere.

[Ohjimmyjimmy]

Glad all the hype around Brazil 1970 is being put to bed.

They are fucking root.

[TopDon]

We are a level above Hibs. They'd have more luck playing for draw like Livi or Dundee United try. Could easily be behind by 3 or 4.

Hedges is probably the most improved player in Scotland this year. 

Like chalk and cheese. 

Seems to have hit it off with Wright. I think they link up well. 

[KenDodd'sDad]

"They boys"

 

"He's no touched him"

 

Fyvie's weegie nonsense has ruined my evening. 

[Superdon!!!11oneoneuno]

Easy 3 points.

Hibs are utter shite if that's any measure of them.

[Ten Caat]

Taylor makes a fantastic challenge to stop them getting a last second consolation. 

Comfortable win, Wright m.o.m for me ahead of Hedges and Hoban

Really don't think we did sit back though. There was a decent press throughout most of the second half. Created a few chances we should have scored.

Before this season he was rubbish.

[For Fecks Sake]

Happy with that, up to equal 2nd albeit the Tim's have a game in hand.

The South American drug mule must be absolutely shite if a 35 year old plumber is getting on before him. 
 

 

Is Cormack into money laundering?

[Kincardine_Mearns_Red]

Good win for us and keeps us right on the tail of smellic.

[daytripping]

Real chance to hammer them, game management mode kicks in. No fans there but if their was they want entertainment, not that hold the lead cack. We're a great team going forward, such a pity they have to play with shackles on, don't give it a go against the twins and stop playing when winning  against the others.

[Zeus]

Didn't really need to play that well to win that. Hibs are poor.  

Hedges was MOTM for me

They had almost 2/3 of the possession.  We definitely sat back more than I would have liked. 

3 points though, good result.

Are you a tim or hun? Good for cormack if he is. Squinty cunt fae the huns has bn doin it for years. 

[WesthillWanderersFC]

A comfortable win and I didn’t think we were even that good. 
Hibs were absolutely abysmal. 
How Porteous gets near a Scotland squad beggars belief.

Wright deserves a new contract now I’d think.

Hedges probably MOTM 

Still think going to the bastard garden without Hayes, McCrorie, McGeouch, Watkins (& maybe McLennan) is a big ask though. 

[donswin1983]

Great result and delighted with that. Felt a bit ‘game management’ from about 20 mins onwards. A lot more direct than previous weeks, which I’m hoping isn’t a consequence of Cosgrove and a sign of the things to come.. Have loved the ball on the deck football this season. Hedges was brilliant..

Need to tie both Wright and McLennan down.  There's a long list of players who we can shed next summer before we start thinking about losing them.

Agree with most of the above. Comfortable and Hedges MOTM IMO too.

Jack Ross whinging about the referee.

Citing the Kennedy push on Boyle for a penalty... completely ignoring the red card his captain should’ve had for scything Wright and denying g a goal scoring opportunity. 
 

 

[tightbreeks]

Great result tonight, the pieces are finally falling into place. If we didn't have the new training ground, we'd be hard pressed to sign the calibre of player we have now.

I think we got off with that one. Looked like a definite push. 

He'd be better spending his time sorting out his defence though rather than whinging about referees not giving him a penalty when he's 2 nil down already.
