MOTM Poll Aberdeen v Rangers - 20:00 Tuesday - Sky Sports

[Theresa May]

I thought we were in control most of the half

They never created much - but nor would I say we were in control. Any time we lost the ball, they created a chance - that's not a team in control. Our defensive shape is all over the place.

 

[Div1872]

Sands was poor passing the ball to Sakala when he was under pressure. Jumps in after the rebound and gives away a clear foul

McGregor is done. That shot should have been saved

We desperately need a new 1st choice keeper in January

 

[TommyC]

We are still sh*te…

 

[Eighteen Seventy Two]

Head in the sand loyal.

I’m not disputing the mentally challengeds aren’t ahead of us. It doesn’t negate my point.

 

[muttley]

Sakala looked like he was fouled when he lost the ball in midfield before their goal. As for us, we just cannot play away from home. We just can't cope with teams in our face.

 

[Cyberniv]

I'm getting old now but I still live in hope that we can get through one game (just one) without some monumental series of clusterfucks costing us a goal.
So sloppy and careless it just beggars belief for professional footballers.
Sands prefers an injury free Xmas to putting in a tackle for the Club who pays his wages. Fucking disgrace.
Hope Beale works the miracle at half time again.

 

[sofakineazy]

Because the alternatives obviously aren't fit. Why do you think we started with 2 midfields at centre half the other night?

Because Beale likes to be unorthodox

 

[sonofbunk]

I just want the World Cup back

 

[GovanFront4]

That is fucking embarrassing McGregor.

 

[Abacab]

The difference in the sheep players and fans application tonight compared to Saturday is actually funny.

Aberdeen have been fucking dreadful. What game is everyone else watching?

We go one up and start our usual fannying about instead of going for the kill.

A proper Rangers team would be 3-0 up by now.

 

[Bear84]

McGregor must have thrown in about 20 since the start of last season. I’ve never seen a player retain a place in any football team after such prolifically awful performances.

He’s now an absolutely terrible, terrible goalkeeper.

McLaughlin is pretty poor but he’s miles better than McGregor.

 

[bornabluenose]

When was the last time a team didn’t score with their first shot on target against us? Its every game without fail

Keeper has to be brought in in January. Need someone reliable in defence along side Goldson

It's fucking painful to watch.

 

[EOS]

We were starting to dominate again and then we collapse. Why doesn't Sands make the tackle with his left foot? And then another McGregor clanger.

A decision to make on Tillman, he's been way off it. Like Thursday he could be off at HT but you know he's capable of being the difference.

Time to stop shiting the bed at places like Pittodrie.

 

[wee_bear]

You can’t defend shagger there tbh but if we up the tempo we can take care of this mob.

 

[julian candy]

Kamara and Jack are a massive issue.

They are absolutely woeful. Take what we can for Kamara in January and say goodbye to Jack in the summer.

 

[Govan36]

When did the rule change that it is no longer a yellow when you prevent a quick free kick being taken?

Twice, first he picked up the ball in front of Jack then prevented Jack taking the kick. But Willie Collum gave him a severe talking to, that'll teach him.

 

[DEJA BLUE]

Wheres the desire and hunger to get this game won, I cut them some slack last week but 2nd game in no way we are woeful, why can't we ever add to our lead, mcgregor quickly tainting his status yet again. We are so poor, beale has to get this team playing and fast.

 

[bilkobear]

It's almost like Sands Isn't a central defender and McGregor is finished.

Yes eventually you just cannot ignore it.

 

[Sanchez D-S]

Ridiculous finish to the first half. Appaling goalkeeping gives they c*nts a new lease of life when we were in control.

Ridiculous.

 

[LyonGer]

Needing another half time pep talk here because we have been rotten

I wouldnt say we have been rotten, played some really good football at times.
Our 3 issues are we try to walk the ball into the net, we can't defend under pressure and I was a grandpa younger than Mcgregor is.
All 3 should be easily fixable.

 

[Jamiegatami]

this second half is a time bomb waiting to go off.

Collum who is card happy
VAR looking at everything in our box
Jack on a booking
Them scoring right on half time

Rangers need to concentrate like %^*& second half

 

[SCG]

Wullie collum prick can't get the cards out quick enough and I mean for both teams ,there's no need for it.As for sands he's truly woeful.

He isn't a centre back

 

[Sideshow Bob]

Used to admire McGregor but sadly he’s now gone from hero to villain. As a pro he’ll know he’s past it but continues to play. Hurting the team- Fu(king joke.

 

[Manc Bear]

Who even posts in the match thread about the match when we're playing?

Eh?

I agree, it’s weird, just concentrate on the game instead of reading and positing

As sad and bizarre as it seems, I think we’ve been suckered somewhat by this bitter atmosphere, the players don’t look fully confident on the ball and we are making some seriously sloppy mistakes.

Jack needs to be hooked, and Tav, Morelos and Tillman to a degree need their arses kicked.

For me, Lowry needs his chance here tonight. Replace Tillman with him and give him and Kent free reign to attack, and get Lundstram on to shepherd the defence.

We need a serious boot up the arse, big time and we also need to start treating this dross like shite on our shoes.

the atmosphere? What a lot of pish.

Other points are spot on

 

[ssblue]

Can we just get it out our heads now that James Sands is good enough?

Doesn’t matter what the position is, he’s honestly an Aberdeen level player. A jobber.

Sooner Ben Davies is fit the better.

He is fit.

He will play on Friday but can't play 2 games a week.

 

[Rino100]

Beale will get it right second half , I expect us to win by a couple.

 

[Whats up doc]

Sick of the same group continually letting us down - Mcgegor, Tav, Goldson, Kamara, Jack, Morelos, Kent.

 

[Clay Davis]

Sick of Boyd refusing to say anything negative about his pal

 

[sofa_kineazy]

As a team we don’t have an identity.

Tav may be Captain but he’s got the authority of a mouse.

We need a leader that shouts and bawls and leads by example.

 

[Carson1912]

As much as mcgregor isn't the keeper he once was,Mcglaughlin is even worse.

 

[Ferrybear73]

Wullie collum prick can't get the cards out quick enough and I mean for both teams ,there's no need for it.As for sands he's truly woeful.

No way this game finishes 11 v 11 with this kunt refereeing.

 

[Jon Snow]

I don’t think Sands is the answer but he’s not been bad in that half. Made a mistake for the goal but there were 3 at fault for that goal (Sakala, Sands and McGregor) and I’d have Sands at the bottom of the list in terms of who was most at fault.

Sakala failing (again) to control a simple pass put him in trouble and then McGregor is nothing short of scandalous with the FK.

 

[Davie Weir]

Boyd sidestepping blaming his pal

Again.

 

[Diego Maradona]

Still can’t get past us bringing on McGregor for 2 minutes of the cup final and 6 months later he’s costing us goals.

 

[Leo_Ger]

It was sakala who gave the ball away

And?

Sands then lost the second ball.

 

[sofakineazy]

Alfie has been anonymous

 

[FullTimePint]

That’s terrible goalkeeping for me, he’s been beaten by the pace on the ball, but he’s no1 at rangers, he needs to be gobbling up those types of shots.

We are lacking energy here. We look dangerous when sakala, Tillman, and Kent are all flying, but as we have all seen those players drift in and out of the game, and when they drift out we are so badly out fought

 

[RangerInCanada]

We've dominated possession and could have scored more, but the usual issues are still there. We seem to concede all the time with the first shot on target we face. We still lack quality right across the team and although we should win, Tav aside you're left wondering where the next goal comes from.

We took it too easy
Became too comfortable
That is what this group of players tend to do.
Aberdeen were rotten and should never have been let back into the game

 

[Karky Madoolla]

She’s a wee fucking rancid cow that yin.

 

[Shengus Malengus]

McGregor looks like he is far to close to that post then gets beaten at it. We can’t go j in to the second half of the season without a new keeper.

Exactly my thoughts.

"What the f uck are you doing away over there, McGregor" I mumbled and then he goes and loses it away over there.

It was a pathetic sight, watching an old man making an old man dive.

 

[King Albertz]

All this talk of going undefeated until the end of the season. We are miles away from a team who don't drop points.

We should probably be losing this half

 

[Napsburybear]

A few of them need to change their studs at half time.

 

[Rfc111]

Lost the 50/50 and gave away the free kick.

Sloppy in possession also.

If Davies is fit for the bench he should be starting

I agree the 50/50 was a pathetic attempt and resulted in him giving away the foul. Amateur!

 

[XabGer]

Why did we give McCrorie an extension to his contract if we have no intention of playing him?

 

[TN8]

There's still more goals here for us, but unfortunately Aberdeen will be thinking the same.

 

[sirstevefleming]

Mcgregors distribution is of amateur standard tonight - not often under much pressure either. I think every could see we were going to concede but that was ridiculous

 

[Artful Dodger]

No stopping that!

Put the rod away ffs.

 

[Polar bear]

You can be a fan if you like bud, I’d rather see Rangers win.

Only one person to blame for that goal against bud.Alan McGregor.

 

[BlueSevenTwo]

They are absolutely woeful. Take what we can for Kamara in January and say goodbye to Jack in the summer.

But but we’re going to see a new Kamara under Beale.

 

[All of the Lights]

He's one of those unlucky players who never seems to get away with his mistakes. One of his always seems to be followed by one of someone else's to cost us.

I think when you make as many mistakes as he does there’s going to be good few you don’t get away with.
