Scottish Cup draws Aberdeen & Celtic. With Celtic destroying us on the day.
We may have thrown away the group with a home defeat to Juventus

Dominated against Juventus but they had the best chances and took them unlike our tired side who look destined for 2nd

Still no wins for Motherwell as they and Livingston are still rooted at the bottom. Aberdeen pull clear of a Old Firm battle for 2nd

1st seeds

Almost a home tournament for us and were top seeds


France would be a tough draw. Greece and Ukraine would be the nations i'd like




2nd Seeds
View attachment 372246


Wow tough draw! France will offer some very tough opposition for top spot.


Germany or Russia could make this group the group of death.




3rd Seeds
View attachment 372247


The Austrian don't really catch my eye but im just so glad to have avoided tougher draws.


Please give us Cyprus. If we get the Czech's i'd cry a little bit




4th Seeds
View attachment 372248


Switzerland might not be world beaters but they wont be push over's in this group were anything could happen.






The press might think this group is straight forward and Unless Austria pull off a shock then i'd agree.

As we struggled to beat Hearts at Tyncastle they injured former player Robert Svoboda who will be out till around February

Very little change anywhere in the table except for Motherwell picking up a few wins.

Not developed as well as other attackers. Not producing many goals and assists but his ratings gone through the roof



 

Christopher Pierce
View attachment 372898View attachment 372899


Its been a while since I've done one of these. Unlike the previous players who had been at Aberdeen since they were teenagers Chris Pierce was a bit different. I finally got him over from Dallas in 2015 and he immediately became a 1st team starter a position he would hold for 10 years until i installed the Porto policy which left him up for sale as youth players got there place in the team leaving Pierce to leave to Wigan for a short spell before he returned to top level football with PSG as a back up. His contract expired there last summer and after months on the scrap heep we picked him up for the sole purpose of getting to 500 matches. Now that he's done that he'll probably sit in the squad for the next few months as emergency cover before i let him leave on a free in the summer as he has no plans to continue in football after his playing career is over.

Reject a £36m bid from Liverpool for Novosel. I dint value him at more than £10-£15m but better offers will probably follow

Despite loosing to Celtic there form has not been dazzling and they have bigger concerns with Rangers now level on points and possibly refreshed with a new manager.

Easily our best midfielder these days. Got a £36m bid for Man City on deadline day but asked for £60m and they withdrew. No pressure to sell as he has a long time left on his current deal.

Liam Fotheringham
View attachment 373087View attachment 373089


Here's one i missed earlier. It appears at the start of this season Liam Fotheringham passed 500 games so here's his stats as we speak. Liam was spotted immediately at Dundee Utd from there youth intake and was a rare find for the time in a talented young Scottish player. As i took over as Scotland manager he went right into the National team he went right in as a starter aged only 16 and since then he's flown under the radar as a sold top center back. At 28 he's still got a lot of playing time to challenge Derek Sneddon's Aberdeen club record.

it still depresses me that 20 years on no Scottish club apart from your lot and Celtic can splash out in the millions for some star quality...
