How will you follow the Dons Next Season

Will we never learn?

Aberdeen came into this afternoons game against Hibs having beaten them in both previous games this season.
We had been on a bad run recently and this was the perfect game for us to get three points and build some confidence for the Semi Final v Celtic next week.

For the second game in a row Aberdeen looked the more likely team, but Peter Pawlett like Paton in the Saint Mirren game was caught in possession and Hibs scored the only goal of the game.
Aberdeen hit the woodwork three times in today's game, as they have done in the last couple of games.
I guess when you are not getting the breaks, what can you do.

It is worrying that we are creating the chances but are not able to take them, even more worrying is we keep making the same defensive errors.

We have one more game before Hampden, against Rangers in midweek, it is scary to think what the Old Firm could do against us if we keep gifting goals they way we have been.

I have not been impressed with Blackman since he came, and would rather see one of the young strikers get a chance in the squad.
I thought Vernon did a power of work when he came on. Maguire gave the ball away to cheaply a couple of times (he was not the only one) , but he is always a threat upfront.

In truth Hibs really did nothing to win this game and once again Aberdeen basically beat themselves.
We must now go back and look at the tapes from the last couple of games and learn from our Mistakes.

We can only hope we get some of the luck we have been missing in recent weeks in the next two games.

Stand Free
