Aberdeen look to cap top team in 25 years

1164

Really looking forward to tomorrow.  Aberdeen are no flash-in-the-pan, they are as strong a non-Glasgow team as there has been in 25 years, having built on foundations laid last season.  They arrive at Celtic Park having won there last season, and after two narrow defeats to Celtic this season, which has cost them a place at the top of the league.

Ronny Deila will have an enormous job to pick his players up after the disappointment of Thursday night, but that’s what champions do.

I know we’ve got a few foodies here, so check out The Foodies Guide to Glasgow and the West, by Fraser Wilson.  Proceeds from the book go to Mary’s Meals, which goes a long way towards alleviating poverty.

If you are from or near Dundee…….

There’s a charity dinner to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Brother Walfrid, in the East Chamber, Dundee, on Friday 17 April.   Proceeds from the night will go towards helping three-year-old Oliver Bosch, who was born without auditory nerves.

The evening will have an Irish theme, with an Irish menu, music and song and the Lochee School of Irish Dancing will give a display of traditional Irish dancing.  For tickets contact joe.carroll1948@yahoo.co.uk

  1. Di Canios “Golden boots”game,and goal always stays with me.Was home on leave and managed to get up for the game.Magic memory.

  2. Bfdj, talking up the battle in the first division :)

     

     

    Go back four years and there wouldn’t be a mention of the lower leagues….how the mighty have fallen since their club died. :)))

    Aware my ideas has flaws, but it would be intended to be a deterrent.

     

     

    As for tickets changing hands – yes, that does happen.

     

    I’d be pretty sure that whoever let off flare the other night didn’t source ticket direct from Celtic.

     

    But we all have to take responsibility for our own actions, and, I say this is someone one who has bought & sold tickets for games from folks on here; the responsibility also applies to whoever moves on tickets.

     

    Again , I’ll say that might sound draconian, but I would rather the money we pay in fines went to youth development, minimum wage, free ST for unemployed etc

  4. BFDJ ‘Expects’ Sellik to win the league by double points.

     

     

    That’s a curse if ever there was one !

    By the way, Hearts Dutch beast of a striker, Zeefuik, might be worth keeping an eye on, Ronny D.

  11. I was at both our game against Accies last week…and the Don’s game against them the week before.

     

    They done them over better than we did (over 90 minutes) and should have won by at least 6….The ref. was a fud and cost them at least two goals.

     

    They played with pace and were very direct…And I hope we don’t underestimate them.

     

    Just sayin’ like.

    Neganon.

     

     

    Dynamo Kiev Dynamo Moscow and Zenit have all had similar charges libelled against them by Uefa’s disciplinary committee in the last couple of days so your assertion of a witch hunt against Celtic doesn’t really stand up

     

    The culprits responsible aren’t daft wee Bhoys,as some others will have you believe, and they are fully aware that sanctions will be visited upon the club as a consequence of their actions

     

    ——————————

     

    The witch hunt is not UEFA conducted, they are merely applying their rules ( too much of a novelty for Scottish football and those who report on it to grasp). The witch hunt comes from our media.

     

     

    As Burnley 78 states it is led by a desire to pull us down to their level by giving our behaviour equivalence to TRFC behaviour and focussing on our transgressions in terms of equivalence that simply do not merit it.

     

     

    Headlines scream a message that lends equivalence and it these that are remembered, not the context surrounding the events, which then become the subject of ongoing, never ending circular debate, filling air time.

     

     

    Our media have a lot to answer for in failing to consider if equivalence indeed applies, in fact they encourage false equivalence and so discord by the uneven manner in which they report events.

     

     

    Given that the media cater for their largest customer base and that customer base are in the majority in population terms, then Neganon2 has a point regarding how pervasive is sectarianism in our society and its promotion amongst our media.

     

     

    Whether that pervasiveness is the result of the personal reflection of intolerance covering a majority of the population or is just personal intolerance by the usual media suspects or simply what keeps reporters in work, is an unknown.

     

     

    I suspect it is a mixture of personal intolerance of varying degrees writ large across the population, as well as commercial considerations, which makes it all the harder to eradicate. Which reporter is going to admit to be being biased, especially if it threatens their job and their industry?

     

     

    Even if you discount personal bias as a factor from the Timmy reporters, the need to cater to the majority and the commercial consequences of not doing, so gives us the Pat Nevins of the media world.
