If rumoured deals go through will this be a record spend for clubs in a January window(excluding the obvious 2)? Suspect the total may be over £2.5M by the time the window closes.

The hearts fans criticising Aberdeen for splashing cash on Tobers will presumably be fuming that they are now splashing similar for Steinwender...

Wow didn't see this coming from Aberdeen. Simply have to change the Shinnie/Nilsen midfield. Not sure if Thelin is proving a point but Ambrose should not have been starting either. Dundee Utd now a massive game for 3rd which it never should have been.

AGM readout was pretty interesting. Glad to hear focus on youth players making the grade. Don't believe the Kingsford move is a real possibility, more of a chess piece to bring Aberdeen CC back to the table. Murmurs of money to spend in Jan is also very promising.

Rangers v Aberdeen on the 15th Jan. Just over 5 weeks away now with a lot of football in between. I fancy Aberdeen to still be in 2nd by the time it comes around even though Rangers have an extra game. 🧵

Thought we were really good tonight. Think a draw would have been fair. Clarkson chance was the one. McGarry MOTM after keeping the best player in the league quiet all game. Doohan was excellent. So good to see Polvara back as well. Teams in a good place.

Hope the news about Mitov and Mackenzie hasn't sucked too much enthusiasm out of tonight's game. Should still be a really good match.

Aberdeen's PPG this season of 2.46 is higher than Celtic's across last season (2.45). To reach 68pts (3rd place last season) we need a PPG of 1.44 in remaining fixtures, roughly win half, lose half of our remaining fixtures.

Maybe we can't win by scoring acrobatically. See Duk v County for more evidence.

Looks like St Mirren have made an active attempt to get this game postponed.

The new asda initiative to tackle plastic pollution 🤦‍♂️ have to imagine the box was created in isolation.

Several contenders:
Smith v Copenhagen
Walker or Aluko v Bayern
Hedges v Hearts (Edinburgh based so this felt particularly sweet)

But in the end it's these 2. Ferguson after all the build up to that game. Quinn after going down to 10 to keep the winning streak. Both just hit different.

🤯 This means that if there's an obviously easier WCQ group for the "loser of QF 3" Vs a group of death style group for the "winner of QF 3" - then it would be within the interest of these countries to DELIBERATELY LOSE their Nations League QF to make WCQ easier.

Insanity.

Great work, UEFA 👍

Great to see Miovski scoring again tonight. Hopefully grabs his 1st La Liga and CL goals soon.

Part of me enjoyed the cesspit of Twitter but you've got to have a limit.
