MattJimF Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Ah i didnt know that. So clearly we are going to have to go through this boring argument between the old firm fans then. I'd imagine Celtic Park is the better option, but you know how these things tend to go up here. Would make more sense to play at Parkhead. At least the Irish fans will know the way there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladstone Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Interestingly (or not), Scotland is the second highest ranked team in our Group (in terms of FIFA World Rankings). My source for that is Pat Nevin on BBC Sport. I haven't checked the rankings, but I assume he's nae lying. Pat Nevin thinks we can come second behind Germany, so I am now full of complete optimism. 6 points against everyone other than Germany, who we will get 4 points from and we'll actually win the group. Bring it on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I didn't realise Switzerland were 6th in the rankings. Cape Verde in the top 30? At least England are in a fairly realistic position now. But they don't matter. Only the the UFWC matters. Uruguay are the Champions. Everyone else is small fry.

Woodsinho Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Switzerland have really gamed the system as far as the rankings go. I remember reading a thing about it last year which is this thing here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-25134584 I thought it was dead interesting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skacel Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Aberdeen Vs Celtic tonight. Should be a cracking game. I'm predicting a 1-1 draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Easy Wishes Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I fancy a 2-1 Dons win. Two early goals (one each, first ten minutes - Rooney 6', Commons 8') then a nervy 78 minutes where we defend for our lives, followed by a late break on the counter attack (Pawlett 89'). Dancing in the streets of Old Aberdeen, vodka redbulls in The Bobbin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Easy Wishes Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 WTF? It looks like the NY Red Bulls kit. Awful! Adidas have done a pretty great job of recent times - really classy looking straightforward kits. This is terrible. Looks like an artistic impression of a sunrise.

Chris Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 It's supposed to be reminiscent of the Rosebery shirt from the 19th century Don't really see it. To be honest though my first reaction was that it was awful but it's starting to grow on me. The bright red and yellow link strongly with the lion rampant.

Lemonade Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I only just noticed that Ireland were pot 2. That's a decent draw from that pot to be fair. For some reason I'd assumed it was Poland in pot 2. Have Poland became quite shit? IThey are two different places? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Android Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Great win even if the second half got very nervy at times. I think we allowed them to pressure us more than we should have at times but we defended well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 That's my Facebook feed fucked for the next wee while. To deflect from the team that I support getting beat quite the best Aberdeen side that I can remember, what about the lollybobs bad Man Utd side at the moment?
