PTBCAL Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Aberdeen are awful yet it’s a team we couldn’t beat twice this season despite taking the lead in both games. We might be 3rd but we are not hugely better than the teams below us in all honesty. If we want to finish 3rd then Sundays game is vital. Must win against a rejuvenated County side.

Locky Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 11 minutes ago, Barack said: Yeah. They've pretty much written themselves out of 3rd place already, going by their historic defeats tally. Anywhere between 9-12 over the last few seasons. Look forward to the 19 game unbeaten run... They lost 15 back in 11-12 season. Think that was Craig Brown's last season in charge. The season before they lost 22 games. We only lost 20 the season we had a team of kids.

Wee Mikey Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I managed to avoid the Hibs v Dons score and just watched Alba 'As Live'. Two average teams slugging it out, methinks. Neither of these teams should give us anything to worry about. Porteous!!! His glaikit smiling face having hauled down a Dons player and followed up with a sneaky kick? Deary me!

Rudy T Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Just watched the Hibs game on Alba. **** me Aberdeen were absolute dug shite, constantly gave the ball away in midfield, offered very little up front and seemed to want to walk the ball through the middle than stretch the game. Hibs weren’t much better but didn’t need to be, Porteous should’ve seen red for kicking that Ramirez while he was on the deck, Nisbet seemed to have a go at Maloney when he came off but I’m surprised he lasted as long as he did and basically it was give it to Boyle and hope for the best. Any Hearts fan moaning about our performances should try and watch that 90 minutes it was eye bleeding. The longer Glass is at Aberdeen the better, with that squad of players they should be challenging us for 3rd if not better. I’d take both their forwards if they want away from that shit show.

Ex member of the SaS Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Sorry but I watched the Hibs game and the ref was a disgrace. Blew for a foul in the Hibs box that neither the Hibs commentators could figure out why, he also blew for a push in the back of a Hibs player. Hibs corner and a Sheep player heads the ball out, but is shoved in the back doing so, but no foul and corner taken again with Hibs scoring. Then we have the case of Porteous back heeling the guy on the ground with no card and Allan taking out the Sheep player long after the ball was gone and I mean LONG after, with just a word. Commentators also moaning about the number of times he stopped the game but forgot it was Hibs players doing the fouling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motherwell are the team to watch for the moment. They’ve got an easy run coming up until they play us at Tynecastle so we could do with them dropping something I believe our next 5 games are in Edinburgh. I think we should be double figures clear in third at the end of that run. If that happens, the teams below us are so inconsistent they are not catching us. We are not a great side. We’re good on our day but not great but we’re the 3rd best side in the country by quite a bit. Only an unforeseen shambles of a run will stop us for 3rd.

Things can still change but if we can win our next 2 home games then we'll be in a good place the time we play hibs at ER, beat them or avoid defeat there then I think they'll realistically give up on 3rd. Still a long way to go, but unless someone goes on a long winning streak (6-10 games type thing) our general consistency should ensure we have a gap.

Think Wee Mikey's main point was that over the course of a 38 game season, they will not be a severe threat to us in the battle for 3rd. Hibs are far too inconsistent, and Aberdeen are more consistent, albeit consistently pish. We've got that in our locker too, but at the mid-way point of the season, we look a good bit ahead of both teams and hopefully get better in January. As for the results against both them though, you're right to question. Bitterly disappointing that we've only taken 2 out of a possible 9 against them both so far. Hard to tell if that's because they've raised their game on those days or if we've got it all wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
