Arrgh, just when you think you’ve got your season back on track with a first home of the season against Kilmarnock, five minutes of defensive insanity sinks the Dons as they lost to Dundee United at the weekend. First, Scott Severin lingers on the ball for too long allowing Gomis to take the ball off [...]

We’re gaun to the Argentine.
Ah well, not quite, but jings, it’s good to get a home win on the board. In the days before the game, there were all thae stories about Aberdeen having the worst home record in Britain or something which doesn’t exactly get the confidence up. We’re pretty sure Grimsby had a [...]

Well, it took five attempts but we’ve finally done it – a home win.
Sone Aluko’s single goal, an 18-yard screamer past Combe in the Killie goal just after the break was to prove the winner and some measure of revenge following our Cup exit at the hands of the Ayrshire side a few weeks back. [...]

It’s been another quiet week in the Granite City, with not much in the way of news coming from down Pittodrie Street. Jamie Smith, still recovering from an injury has been told he’ll get a new deal, and we read somewhere (but have not been able to confirm this) that Jared Hodgkiss is negotiating an [...]

Hearts and Aberdeen fought out an eventful 1-1 draw at Tynecastle in conditions that can at best be described as ‘testing’. Strong winds and rain made for a scrappy encounter.
The Dons lined up as Langfield in goal, Considine at left back, Mair and Diamond (who had recovered from a flu bug going around Pittodrie) in [...]

By: TheNorthernLight | No Comments
Last season, we had the distinct misfortune to be at Tynecastle to see at first hand just what Hearts are capable of. A combination of some shocking defending and dreadful goalkeeping led to a heavy 4-1 defeat, the temporary failure of the floodlights not enough to stop the game after ground staff put another 50p [...]

We’re just after taking down the bunting following our latest victory. The alcohol induced headache is subsiding, the dull throb-throb-throbbing fading with the vision of Lee Miller’s rocket header into the net. Aye, we love the smell of victory in the morning.
Some of you reading this might well be supporters of teams for whom winning [...]

We had two articles written for this weekend: one packed with facts and stats about how this was Aberdeen’s worst start to a season since 1999 and listing a number of candidates we think could be lined up to replace Calderwood; the other is this one.

So the internationals are nearly out of the way, thank goodness. Scotland lost another two points and we’re back to doing what the national side does best – make life hard for themselves. Ach, it’ll all work out in the end one way or the other. Somehow the results always seems to conspire in such [...]
