Not that it shouldn't have been obvious to anyone that the bearded midget charlatan weegie hun cunt was an abomination of a human being let alone a manager but equally revealing was that Glass isn't the inexperienced dope that some were thinking and may actually prove to be an excellent appointment and the first competent AFC manager for over thirty years. Last night also proved the value of the "intangibles", of culture, attitudes and mindsets. It also proved that Stewrat Milne is a bad man and a piece of shit scum, not that anyone who knew him or knew anything about him didn't know this already. He's not just an embarrassment to himself and the NE, he serves to remind Aberdeen fans how stupid they were not to see through him (and his weegie bearded cunt to whom he passed the chequebook). Let`s not forget that we lost 3 nil at home in the SC to the dirty arab bastards under Glass.....we need to reel in the analysis of the manager for a reasonable period. One game is not enough. A good result and performance albeit against a team I had never heard of before the draw. 1 Link to comment

Logiemink Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hayes had several clown like moments but watched the game back and defensively he did ok and pressed and regained pocession made some good forward runs/ assist for Ramirez but McKenzie at 20 looks well capable of first choice by end of season. 2nd Leg ?

RED_JOHN Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 11 hours ago, fine-n-dandy said: Hayes is notoriously a pretty slow starter to the season, much like (but not to same extent as) Kenny McLean was. He will no doubt come good again & be a very important player for Glass. He’s still adjusting to the (thankfully) change from McInnes type shite play. Hayes was always best on wing & often cutting inside. Confident Glass can get him back to playing to his strengths. He had a few bad passes and touches of the ball but came to life like the rest of the team after the first 2O minutes. He is a very decent player and I look forward to seeing him play a more positive game under the leadership of Glass. If anyone should be questioned it should be our opening goalscorer. Great run to the back post area to score the opening goal but cancelled out by his woeful inability to defend properly. Link to comment

RUL Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 I do agree with the vibe that we need to temper our excitement with realisation that harder games lie ahead. Defensively thought we were good. I thought Considine should have done better with goal but thought mccrorie reading of the game was spot on. Link to comment

Jenks and Gallagher also need minutes , I'd be tempted to stick with McCrorie at CH and see how ge gets on with Gallagher , rest Considine 1 Link to comment

The welching, the lies, the spite and the hate would be all very tee hee but for the sinister primary schoolboy humour which more than suggests a truncated emotional and intellectual development. Old chap, old bean, you've been done. How is your "family member" enjoying the new culture at AFC? You know, the one who texted you 12 times to inform you that McInnes had been binned? The inside track you have on our club would be interesting to know. You really are a waste of bandwidth. A pitiful excuse of a human being that takes photos of random couples empty glasses in restaurants when they are trying to have some privacy. You’ve got an internet search history darker than a sea trench too, I bet. 1 Link to comment

Great that they did the "this match has recently finished, would you like to avoid any content that may reveal the result" or something like that. *Possibly 2 or 3 not shown live due to UEFA fascism. One that sticks out that away game Cup replay v the hun. Watched that 6am Cyprus time once it had been released. Unfortunately at 1-0 up couldnae handle the tension, so zoomed it on to see the scoreline read 2-0. Stress dissipated. ? Link to comment

I think some people liked it cos he ran about a lot in straight lines. Now not saying he was rubbish but he pushed off the ball when defending and when got near the box didn’t know what to do. Out of all our centre muds he would still be the one I sold. Even for free Link to comment

Ojo wasn't deployed to cut out of attacks, I can't remember him shirking any tackles. What I found impressive was that he was able to break beyond the back line and get himself in good positions, the problem is he's a sitting midfielder and not used to getting in goal scoring positions. It's important with Brown in there though, that there are people around him able to do the leg work both ways. I don't mind Funso in this new role, with midfielders breaking into the box causing trouble, much better than we were used to last season. My assumption would probably be that once Gallagher comes in, RMC will go where Ojo was on Thursday, provided Ferguson isn't sold. The role Ojo played was made for him, I feel. Link to comment

He was clearly hopeless in the role McInnes played him in at the start of last season. Glass said he (Ojo) played in an inside left position as he quickly understood what was being asked in the new tactics. Link to comment
