Agree with your summary of requirements, the only thing I would add is 5) a consistent level of performance. By that I mean our players (like most) enjoy the challenge of raising their game against Celtic, Rangers and Euro ties but can't be arsed against the smaller sides. As you and I know the successful sides are the ones where the manager manages to instill the mindset that 3 points away to a bottom end club on a rainy Wednesday night are just as (if not more) important as the more glamorous ties. If you can do the above ( including your points) I think that would lift us to 4th, then it would be an ongoing scrap with Hearts for 3rd spot.

Even prosthetic ones for now to atleast give the illusion of having some. -
Could prove tricky, probably need a roller on the end of a stick (recommend one with a splashguard) Mind you if he has signed a new contract he could always pay for someone else to do it 🤔

Just one of approx 300 + bands I've seen live over the years. It's just the 1st ones you see as a kid leave an impression and yes it's very subjective so what shite you into 🤣

Fixed it for you. Off topic I know but couldn't resist. Since 1st Nov 1980 in the Capitol in Aberdeen must have seen them a dozen times in various cities over the years. RIP Lemmy and Philthy animal Taylor. Back to the manager situation once Warnock has worked his magic and helped us lift the cup for the 1st time in 34 years he'll be too excited not too stay another year and tick European football off his bucket list. Incase yer wondering the weather's fine on my planet 🤣.

Nickname with Derby fans was Dracula due to his fear of crosses

Yeah, you didn't deserve that. On a positive note we're going to lift the cup this year with a bit of organising and encouragement from our new boss. Been lucky and old enough to witness us do it 5 times previously and I've got a super strong gut feeling this is our year. The fact he hasn't won a cup before and this is probably his last chance means he will be super up for it. We're currently 9-1 think I'll have a wee flutter before the weekend.

Not staying for the end of the league and the cup final on the 25th of May then ? ( 4 months)

" Six foot two, eyes are blue, big Doug Rougvie's after you, na na na na, na na na, na na ". A wee tune that used to accompany the initial contact. The human equivalent of early heat seeking missile technology ( minus a tooth). Stick that up yer VAR! -

Desperately looking for a fuck to give, sure I must have one around here somewhere 🤔 -

If your talking about his goal kicks (as supposed to drop kicks) there is no reason why a defender couldn't take them instead. I know it was only schoolboy football but I used to take them for our team because our keeper couldn't generate any decent height or would hook or slice them out for a throw in. I would rather folk joke about us needing to use a defender to take goal kicks then repeatedly give possession away because our keeper is shite at taking them. -

Exactly that, as recent history against them showns we are more than capable of securing the points. It's just incredibly frustrating that we don't have a manager who automatically thinks of going for it given that the sides are not miles apart in terms of quality and we're playing at home. Come on Barry grow a pair and don't pussy out this time.
