The Dons - Europe

I heard that a figure off about £1 Million would be expected from the group stages. That will must likely go into contracts for the management team and the 10 or so players we have out off contract in the summer. So I do not expect to see a big spending spree in January unless we make it through the group stages and the board free up some cash to try and go further.

 

I hope to go to at least one off the home ties.

Bring back John "super sub" Hewitt!

 

Unfortunately he's selling double glazing these days, once that wee fella has his foot in the door it takes an age to get shot of him.

 

You can meet and greet the self proclaimed hero of Pittodrie King Joey Harper at the Adam Lounge on Holburn Street though, he might be up for a bit of sub action but watch out for his entourage they don't allow autographs even when you're only wanting the lardy fellow to get out of your road so you can change the TV in the corner behind his table.

Sigh.

 

That Panathingummyjig game pissed me off. They clearly showed they were nothing special, but 3 goals was a harsh result I felt...even though we were pretty feckless going forward at times.

 

I don't think Lee Miller can cut it as a lone striker. His first touch is something special for a guy of his size and stature, but he doesn't seem to be able to hold the ball up long enough. Had Mackie been fit, we might have made something of the few chances we had.

 

The 3rd goal pissed me off the most, Langfield made a good save, not sure he could have done any better with pushing the ball around the post etc. However our wall standing watching the Greek guy follow the ball in? What level are you playing at? I believe the only player who followed the ball in was Zander Diamond and, unfortunately, he was on the wrong side of the box. Richard Foster seemed really annoyed that Diamond was shouting at him for doing nothing.

 

Anyway, the main thing in these groups is to take full points at home, something we can still do...and something that Lokomotiv can't.

 

I still believe.

^Yip we need to take points from the home games and hope other results go's our way. It was in my view a chance wasted they looked there for the taking. But we did not play well should have played two up front and went for it because as said Lee Miller as a lone striker does not work.

 

Big cup game next it would be great to get to a Cup Final this season but we have a few injuries and we do not have a big enough squad to compete on three fronts? Hope i'm wrong.

Locomotiv drew their last game we Tom Tomsk 0v0 at home and have dropped to 7th in league. :wink: Good chance they'll no travel weel. FV Kobenhavn lost 0V1 at home to Randers FC in last game and have dropped to 3rd. Atletico beat Levante (they're aboot da boddam in Espana) 0v1 so they're still looking good at 5th. I think we need to win our two home games and hope the rest falls into place. Top 3 through so why no? I'm away to Locomotiv game - should be excellent atmosphere at Fortress Pittodrie. Mon Da Sheep :D

Played pretty well overall tonight. Andy Considine was the only player I really had a gripe with tonight, he looked woefully out of depth.

 

It's difficult now, it always was going to be. 3 points is a must against Copenhagen to have any chance of going through. And I'm going to go into the Atletico game heart over head I think...

 

I don't care, I love the Dons
