Match Thread Aberdeen 1 - 1 Ross County

[Guest]

I see there's not gonna be away fans again due to the red zone claptrap. Wonder what they'll do when the bigot brothers are due in town? Could be a cunning plan to keep their buckfast swilling scummy fans out of the city.

Also, 500 free tickets for NHS workers.... I am a wee bit skeptical about this. Most that I know who work in the NHS were/are embarassed about the clapping etc. Wards were empty for months at ARI as they closed and cancelled scheduled operations and out patient appointments.

Anyway, will be interesting to see what else they plan. It's called our 'homecoming game' but to be honest, anyone who wants to go see a game can buy a ticket for Thursday against carrier bag.

That's marketing for you.

It will pretty much have been a whole month since we last played at home in the league. Hopefully we can put on a bit of a performance in this one to encourage folk to keep coming back.

More chance of us getting out of the Europa Conf Group Stages tbh.

Hard to predict a starting 11 for this.  Glass will very likely rest a few players for this, because that's what he does and also because he's started strongest side possible for 4 games prior to this (including Thursday, probably), and we'll very likely have a few more injuries as that's our luck over the last few seasons.  The Glass Tombola will undoubtedly be out anyways.

Barring no additional injuries

Lewis

McCrorie Gallagher Mackenzie

Ramsey          Brown                    Hayes

                Ferguson Jenks Ojo 

Ramirez

 

obviously not that formation. But could see us with 3 at the back with Ramsey and Hayes being wingbacks / back 5 when needed.

JET might actually get a start after not starting a few games recently, fuck knows. 

 

Depending on the result on Thursday, we could see a few players coming in. I'm hoping that we still see some players coming in regardless, but the additional money might get us over the line with a few players that will cost a bit of money.

It's one of those where if we win Thursday we will get another good crowd Sunday....so just have to hope it happens.

I see there are reduced ticket prices and free tickets for Junior DNA members. Going to take my daughter to her 2nd match this Sunday.

Which areas are the Red Shed? Looking to avoid that as she wasn’t keen on too much noise last time.

[strachanmcgheegoal]

Out of interest are County completely clear of the Covids?

Front two or three rows of the Main were always my preference for that  reason plus view when they’re wee.  I think it’s still restricted access though which will affect

That’s what I’ve gone for, managed to snap up the last pair I could see in the front row Main stand. ??

2-0 Aberdeen. 

Hopefully Samuel gets some game time so we can potentially see what he can offer. Hopefully he isn't the only new face in the squad this coming weekend.

I’ve nae even checked.

Im in S as well and would have went via the Merkland. Need to dig out the e-mail

[The Gee Man]

Can see a massive juggling of players for this game as can see Thursday going past 90 minutes if I’m honest! A start for Samuels I reckon

Theres a sign up at the gate for the normal away section saying "home turnstile, access for section, P,Q,R,S" so certainly points towards that being the gate to use for the forseeable. 

[Durrant Dived]

Who gives a fuck about this game until 10pm tonight.

Thanks for highlighting.

I'm using the mobile ticket and it didn't show up in the main ticket, but I do now see hidden in behind

[starryfish]

Comms from the club on downloading season tickets to a device has been quite poor so far, hopefully folk aren't caught out at the gate.

Was going to attend but a ruptured bicep has prevented my attendance

[Henry]

Please tell us more about the ruptured bicep! 

[strachanmcgheegoal]

It was a bicep.  Then it ruptured.  Now its a ruptured bicep.

Were you intending on walking on your hands to the game?

Shove your affected arm into a sling, pop a couple of painkillers of your choice and off you go

[GeorgeStreetReds]

Still not clear why we can't allow 300 county fans in the farthest away section in the South Stand.

Very poor from the club.

too much wanking. 

[afc1903mad]

With SevCo having played Ross County last week, any rumours on the Ross County players for this game this week with them?

Some of the SevCo players missed last weeks game and others have been pulled from the Scotland squad that are rumoured to have caught the virus, so have SevCo fielded players last week that should have been isolating?

[muttonhumper]

Watkins in for this one? ?

[South Stand Seagull]

Hugely important game for us.. a few disappointments on the bounce,  this will show the attitude and character of the manager and the players. Respond. 

[alscotoz]

Think I picked us to win and concede. Sigh. Will stick with that.

[BonnieDon]

2-0 Aberdeen (Ramirez and Ferguson)

Hope we get to see Watkins, Longstaff and Samuels.
