Any thoughts for the Dons game on Thursday then? Apparently since we've played them they've lost 3-1, 4-1 and 2-0... reckon we might be able to sneak a 1-1. Their defence looked pretty shite when we played them at Pittodrie, if we have a real go at them early on and scare the shit out of them then we should be okay.

They had games against Shakter(sp) and Dynamo Kiev though, but still should take their confidence down a notch.

If they go at teams like they have in the last few games, and keep the pressure for 90mins then who knows. JC has mentioned that some new contracts will be sorted out if a they get to the next stages. Crafty old orange chap. Carrot on a stick to get them flying out of the traps.

Me and the family head off on holiday on the Friday and I/we want a big happy start to the hols.

Difficult to tell this season as they have been so inconsistent, but last season I definitely thought they were better when they were counter attacking, so I'm hopeful we can get something from them on the break.

If the defence can concentrate and not give away any silly goals, we'll have a chance.

Tickets available from the ticket office.

Think i'll just go to the pub.

I see enough of todders every other week as it is.

Yep, this sounds about as much fun as that Hogmany night they did a few years back where everybody got to freeze in the Dick Donald stand for a couple of hours.
