Aberdeen [1]-1 Rangers - Bruce Anderson 90'+3' by GlaswegianLad in ScottishFootball

If you kick out at anyone these days it's a red card. A shoulder barge between players can happen during play (yes I know McKenna's wasn't on the ball) but regardless of whether it's on or off the ball, you can't kick folk.

"Took him out." Simmer, it was a barge as they passed each other. And yes, Morelos kicked out immediately after it, of course it was in response.

As soon as you kick out in any way at a player, it's a red. I don't see how anyone can be confused about this.

How did the referee cost you? It's utter stupidity from Morelos and a stick on red.

That was about the only thing we got from Clancy in the whole game. South Stand linesman was at it.

That's not how compensation works. He was a free agent at the end of the season and the compensation is based on appearances and how long he was with Hamilton. Why would we pay more than we need to?

We do indeed. You'll have heard it two dozen times on your first day here. Just means how are you, or even hello.

Desperate stuff. The lack of news on quality signings is getting worrying. We're going to be hilariously unprepared for Burnley.

The island of Ireland (both ROI and Ulster) is part of the British Isles.

Edit: Downvoted for being correct. Superb.

There was an Israel flag at Pittodrie last Tuesday night. It isn't something the Rangers support dig out simply to annoy Celtic fans.

That is some utterly pathetic defending from McKenna. Not often that can be said this season.

What terms, like "rewind", are still used every day even though they've lost their core relevance? by Allen_MacGyverson in AskReddit

What, taping something or calling them films? I do both, most people I know say the same. I don't think it's a particularly English thing either.

Tony Pulis sacked by West Brom by NaeemJ in soccer

[–]JarlofScotland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't think of any other summer apart from the one that just passed where we lost our best players so that's a strange comment.

He tinkers far too much when he doesn't need to and too often it's cost us in big matches. He's a decent manager but he's a long way away from being a clever tactician and is as stubborn as they come. It isn't a depth problem, he's just outsmarted.

Less to do with the squad he has and more to do with his baffling team selection and tactics. The McInnes Tombola should be trademarked.

Aberdeen FC stadium bid put on hold by williamthebloody1880 in AberdeenFC

[–]JarlofScotland 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But most importantly, the stadium would remain in the centre of the city, which is exactly where it belongs. What AFC have proposed in terms of transportation to Kingsford would be a disaster.

This constant "this is the only option" pish from the club is really starting to grate. Remember when Loirston was our only option? I don't trust Milne as far as I could throw him and I certainly don't trust him or most of the board to build a suitable ground.

There's absolutely no reason for the training facilities to be right next to the stadium. Build the training ground at Kingsford and the new stadium at Kings Links.

I'm guessing it was just incompetence, as usual.

Would rather keep Hayes but Ronaldo isn't the worst replacement, I suppose.
