I’d have given it to Ash, the Sash bash. Strolled it.

On Motherwell, Campbell was no better than what we have, nor were Gallagher or O’Donnell

Allan Campbell was poor today but he was head & shoulders the best player on the pitch in the earlier game at Pittodrie. 

[North_Andy_Dandy]

A well needed 3 points today, some decent performances all round. Need to get Hedges and Hoban both signed up asap.

I've seen enough of Allan to rate him as the best case replacement for Fergs.

Yea

[RUL]

Was a really enjoyable performance today. 

We need to be more clinical.

Be interesting to see what Del will say about big Sam in next few days, certainly got the service and had chances today but didn’t deliver. Hopefully he gets his arm around but also tells him to wake up and get sharper 

His value will plummet even further if he’s still here on February 1st.

By the time the summer is here he has just 12 months left on his contract, pretty much forcing us to sell him fairly cheaply in the summer (& that’s a big assumption any bids will come in on the form of 2020).

I just don't see where the bid is going to come from. Certainly not one in that ball park again.

Agree. 
£2.7m is pie in the sky now.

To think folk criticised the club for accepting that as well.

There’s an outside chance something will happen next week but I’d be very surprised.

Fergusons really not all THAT special, is he?

Probably the best player on the park today you gype ?

[muttonhumper]

 

Reasonably entertaining game.

Cosgrove though. 

Fucking carthorse, woeful effort again.

As for fucking Ojo, nearly gave a goal away with well effort off the post, and saves the ball keeper style in the box but gets off with it.

Apart from those fuck ups, a standard fucking shite performance from a cunt that really should not be anywhere near our bench, never mind the starting XI.

Aye.

With his hand.

Clear penalty.

Lucked out with that one.

3 points was the most crucial thing about today. However, encouraging to see a few good individual performances today. Attitude, sharpness and team work far, far better today but still searching for answers in the final third.

Yes, completely dull/boring/uninteresting. You are absolutely beige. There is nothing remarkable or interesting about you whatsoever, which is why you constantly crave attention on an Internet football forum.

You do the exact same to be fair

I wouldn’t agree that he was the best player on the park today.

‘He had a very good game, but Hedges for me once again was the standout.

[Zeus]

Ferguson and Hedges were the standouts today for me

Kennedy decent as well

I'm better than you

Remember that

Now we are done, as you're going on the block list; from what I hear you're prevalent on block lists on here 

Oh dear, so rattled you have to put me on your “block list”. 
 

Boring cunt.

Hedges finishing and final ball let him down a bit imo although he was very lively 

[Tord31]

Absolutely delighted with the three points and care factor beyond that is minor.

Hedges ace.

Cosgrove shit.

I'd have sent off Gallagher inside first five mins and it would have been a very different game.

Clear pen when Ojo blocked on the ground - possibly even out the harsh Watkins one earlier in season.

Very worried about our strikers - that was a game to give Anderson the last 25 mins

Nae a chance. He blocked it with his feet and it bounced onto his hand.

Aye?
Still a pen though.

Still blocked a ball that was goal bound with his hand.

It's irrelevant where it came from before that.

 

10 times the pen that was given against Watkins in previous Well game at Pittodrie that most on here accepted.

Nah I’ve watched it back and disagree. Blocks shot with his foot it then bounced up and hits his arm but his arms are just up from diving down and balls just bouncing up after initial block.

Great defending actually, I do see the penalty calls but not for me. Would be very harsh.

Maybe harsh, but by the (ridiculous) rules, 100% pen.

 

[super_al]

I thought we were much better today. However our striker situation continues to let us down. 

[Hagi's pubic hair]

I agree, I thought it was a pen, we got away with one, Kennedy did look to have a bit more intent, Ojo, is not good enough, he had a better game than his usual.
Hedges was good today, he just needs a bit more composure, which will come.
Cosgrove is just not turning up.

Ojo looked better second half when the midfield played further up the pitch and we played more on the front foot. 

When we sit deep he always looks to have an error in him. 

 

[ABERDEENROWIE1903]

We need a win. 

DM keeps the pressure off his own job for another week

Ojo is worst tham mince please get rid

Sam so disappointing at the moment somethings clearly wrong. I have  no confidence any club would come in for him right now

Main why is he at are great club total waste  of a wage

Pleased to get 3 points

Ojo was better as Motherwell were down to 10 men. In first half he set up their best chance and stopped a goal by actually saving it. He was lucky it wasn't a penalty.

Aye totally , he's better further up the pitch though I think.

Generous way of looking at it IYAM, 1970. He looked under less pressure after the sending off - as did every other dons player

I thought after the first 15 mins Motherwell were getting on top and the sending off changed the game. Fair fucks to dons players that they took advantage 2nd half but I thought it was anyone's game at half time
