Match Thread (Scottish Cup) Aberdeen 4 - 2 Dundee United

[Mr Brightside]

Actually feel sorry for Maynard, not getting any time to improve his confidence- hardly getting any minutes or touches, even when Rooney was clearly needing replaced after 60-70 mins

[TopDon]

We have played below average all season..its miraculous we are still in second and in the Cup.

How long can our luck last?

And the Red TV commentators do my head in!

Aye, we've not been brilliant. Yes, we've got a few weak links. But luck? We were easily the better team, and have steamrolled teams like this consistently all season. Sort out the defence and get a decent striker and we'll win the league.

The authorities would have sold the sponsors on the potential of 6 Sevco v Celtic games in a season and will want to deliver.

 

(Can see Sevco getting the easiest draw too, mind.)

They'd want a Sevco v Celtic final or at least Semi Final. Much more exposure.

[Doncomitant]

A tactical McInnesclass

[Big Hat Logan]

Some right depressing cunts on here. You wonder what actually makes them happy.

[BWG]

Some right depressing cunts on here. You wonder what actually makes them happy.

 

Winning games against lower league shite convincingly. Probably.

[DelMonte]

Some right depressing cunts on here. You wonder what actually makes them happy.

Not making a meal of what should of been a thumping.

 

I agree some of it is OTT but a pretty stupid comment from you.

[Scotty_Toronto]

They'd want a Sevco v Celtic final or at least Semi Final. Much more exposure.

 

Of course, but in recent times (and arguably now) Sevco haven't been good enough to guarantee they'll progess.

 

They'll either get one of the two Championship sides, or Celtic.

Rooney might be the slowest player we've had since Andreas Mayer.

 

Genuinely thought I'd never say that about anyone with two functional legs.

[Macski]

The ball was in play for an entire minute after Maynard came on. That included a Utd corner and 2 throws for us in our half. As stated Rooney was shot after 60ish. Feel really sorry for the poor guy, shite or not.

[robbojunior]

Clearly the frustration is that were a decent team, but there seem to be a few fairly obvious things that could make us even better that seem to be repeatedly avoided by the manager.

 

A desire to be even better. Winners mentality.

 

Rather than happy with being just good. Like you clearly.

[1903Fitba]

Good first half. Dire second.

[Scotty_Toronto]

Celtic and Rangers both get home draws against the two Championship sides.

 

Dons at Home to Killie.

[Scotty_Toronto]

Celtic v Morton

Aberdeen v Kilmarnock

Motherwell v Hearts

 

Rangers v Falkirk

You've managed to completely misjudge the tone and alienate absolutely everyone while ignoring any of their content there, well done.

 

There's nothing wrong with wanting better than what we got in the 2nd half, that's what the chat was, you plank.

[Mr John]

Haha that old firm draw...

Yup.

[Scotty_Toronto]

Celtic v Morton

Aberdeen v Kilmarnock

Motherwell v Hearts

Rangers v Falkirk

 

That look like another 'seeded' draw to anyone?

[Oregon Red]

typical

[Mr John]

Bizarre. Russell did the draw too, we trust him, right?

 

It's a kind of magic. Masonic trigonometry. Anyone got Derren Brown's phone number?

[Mr John]

Rooney and Flipper interviewed after the game.

 

[Stoneybloke]

Celtic and Rangers both get home draws against the two Championship sides.

 

Dons at Home to Killie.

Amazing how Anderson managed to do it.

[Doncomitant]

Willie Collum done us a wee favour by subbing Considine off for the next round.

[Sheepo]

AOC is an absolute liability and if we continue with him in the centre of defence the next 2 game will be really tough to win

[ABZ RED]

I'd say it's beyond me that Arnason is behind AOC in Derek's mind but we know how blinded he is by favourites.

 

Unbelievable we've gone into this half of the season with that abortion of half a defence. We've got no chance in the Scottish or getting through Europe.

[V for Vendetta]

 

Of course, but in recent times (and arguably now) Sevco haven't been good enough to guarantee they'll progess.

 

They'll either get one of the two Championship sides, or Celtic.

Home ties against the weakest 2 teams left for the 2 OF teams then.

 

And people are suspicious about these draws.

[Chewie37]

Des wasn’t all that bad was he? I didn’t think he did a bad job.......

[RAZOR]

Dundee Utd were absolutely atrocious.

 

Still managed 2 against our defence no problem.

 

A fine finish from young RooDawg who is dazzling form at present.

[Zeus]

Aye United are absolutely disgusting. Very annoying letting them score twice.

 

Sma cal'

[dave_min]

Poor turn out of 11,611 but not nearly as bad a drop in attendance as the disgraceful Celtic fans

 

What a dreadful goal to lose

 

Were you there?

 

Go fuck yourself then.

[Andy_123]

Fuck me that was cold.

 

Decent win without ever getting out of 2nd gear. Poor goals to concede, but should have scored more as well.

 

Enjoyed the "you're fucking shiiiit" chant, hopefully it could be heard on the tv.
