Somewhat distracted, Saturday would be a great 3 points. Killie seem to be a bit more straight forward when they come on to you. New surface to negotiate, but hopeful we can grind out a win and get back in the right direction

Reasonable record away to Killie and they also haven't won their last 3 league games. A good chance to move up to 6th with a win and other fixtures going our way. Think the squad above is as best as gets at the moment, fingers crossed Whelen is 100% fit and Berra/Dikamona perform better than they did against St Mirren. Would be nice to see Keena get a run out, just returned from Ireland U21's and the subs could be ok with the likes of Meshino, Irving, Damour and White.

 

3-1 to the Jam Tarts!

I also have a strong feeling that we will score 3.  Like everyone, I will be bitterly disappointed if we produce a hesitant, indifferent performance which was so frequent under levein.  I don't think we will.

 

3-1 to Hearts.  Halkett on the bench.

Still can’t find myself to feel confident about us just yet, win tommorow though and that’ll change.

TF the football is back! 

 

Tough game, they’ve got themselves sorted out again. All we can hope for is a performance as far removed from the one at Tynie as possible. Naisy Walker and Whelan back hopefully.

Opposition view:

 

Often I post these on here with a really clear idea of what is going to happen. Killie at the moment I have no idea. 

 

The drop in form is a bit misleading. Played almost the whole Motherwell game with 10 men and played Aberdeen with two central midfielders in defence. Accies scored two worldies without us doing anything wrong and in that way that nothing seems to make sense in some of these Accies games. 

 

Almsot everyone fit for this weekend is huge. Osman Sow is ready for the 'absolutely nailed on come off the bench and score against his old club' routine. 

 

I suspect Killie will be back to being very hard to beat. The midfield three are back to being brilliant. But we have no goals about us. None. Not even a little bit. Although it looks like Berra might help us out with that on current form. 

 

Is the pitch a factor for Naismith? 

 

Prediction - whoever scores first will win one nil.

Cheers Mitch. Usually I would agree about this game not producing many goals but I think we will set up to be more attacking under MacPhee and we do enjoy conceding a comedy goal. Wouldn’t surprise to see a 2-1 win either way or a 2-2 draw but think it will be a good game.

Interested to see how we play away from home under MacPhee. A win would be absolutely brilliant however based on our away performances over the last few years I'm not very confident. Hopefully the players go out there to prove a point that they're good enough to play for us.

And for me. One thing imposing yourself at home, bar the Championship season, which you cant really factor in, for as long as I can remember we have been significantly weaker away from Tynecastle. We've picked up good wins along the way, for as much as I have a bad thing about McInnes he has an awfully good record of winning away matches.

 

We need to make it a habit, quickly for this season to be rescued I suspect

 There’s not much in it.

We’ve picked up 7 pts at home and 5 pts away this season.

A win tomorrow and our away record will be better.

Last season we won twice at Rugby Park, we lost twice at Tynecastle against the same opposition. McInnes managed zero wins against Levein in Edinburgh? Although Levein was apparently ‘beyond hopeless’ .

I think you are being rather selective, but I like it  :)

 

Aberdeen have rolled over Motherwell and Ross Co, whilst beating Hamilton in recent weeks. Venues we will need to win at to get back in the thick of things as Christmas approaches

2-1 Hearts.

 

Naisy and big Uche.

 

Hibs losing at home to Motherwell will complete a perfect day.

 

Jack Ross and John Leslie out on the town tomorrow night commiserating.

We've lost to both of these in our last league meetings.

 

I think its obvious Aberdeen have collected more points consistently than ourselves for quite a few years now. This is something I would like to end :)

Irving will learn loads from Whelan & Naisy. The more he plays the better.

Scrub that - see someone has started a thread on it ....

Probably against the rules as this has nothing to do with the game.

 

New thread on .net.  Title names 3 people.  Question asks "what do the above duo have in common".

 

Aren't they fantastic.

Will be looking  to this game as a means of seeing if we have learned anything from the way we played versus St Mirren. Hopefully that game did show there is no reason to sit off the opposition and we should look to play the same way we did that day. While I'd like to see something really worth watching I'd be just as happy to come away with a win of any sort.
