Pittodrie P.S.

Send us Fan Mail In this episode, no frivolity whatsoever.  We look back at the match against Rangers, and as luck would have it, having recored at 10am on Tuesday, speculate who we might be playing next,  given the post split fixtures hadn't been announced.  For the record we speculated correctly.  We also review a great week for Aberdeen Women and a disappointing one for the U18s.  And we&a...

Send us Fan Mail 6 wins in a row for Barry Robson's Reds.  We look back over the Ross County game and ahead to Rangers this Sunday afternoon.  An uncharacteristic week for Aberdeen U18s as they lost two games on the bounce away to Dundee United and Hearts, but Aberdeen Women managed to win against Hamilton making their life in the closing few matches in SWPL 1 more encouraging.  And we'r...

Send us Fan Mail Barry Robson fashioned yet another win, this time over the manager who brought him to the Dons as a player.  We look back over the Kilmarnock game and ahead to Ross County this Friday evening.  Aberdeen U18s played their second match in a double header against St Mirren, this time at Cormack Park.  And we're down the divisions and across the country for Cove, Peterhead, The H...

Send us Fan Mail As Barry Robson cements his appointment (at least to the end of the season) with a win, we look back upon the victory at St Johnstone, and ahead to the next match at home, when Kilmarnock visit for Easter.  Aberdeen U18s get back in the bit with victory in the first of back to back clashes with St Mirren, but Aberdeen Women drop a lead again.  Plus, we review the Scottish Nation T...

Send us Fan Mail With no Dons First Team Match to look back on, Episode 75 begins with AFC Women's game against Glasgow Women, and forward to Aberdeen FC U18s upcoming double header versus St Mirren, as well as the trip to St Johnstone on Saturday for the senior team.  Plus, we review the Scottish Nation Team's performance against Cyprus and our prospects versus Spain.  And we're do...

Send us Fan Mail Episode 74 looks back at Saturday's match against Hearts, and forward to St Johnstone on April 1st. We're with the young Dons too as they hit a bump in their campaign against Hibs.  Aberdeen Women try to figure out how to hold onto a lead  as they get ready to try and retain their top flight status now the league split's taken place.  And we're down the divisio...

Send us Fan Mail Episode 73 doesn't have a match to look back over because last weekend was Scottish Cup weekend, and ....don't make me say it!  Instead we focus on previewing the Hearts game at Pittodrie this coming Saturday and ask what our aspirations should be for the remainder of the campaign? We're with the young Dons too as the Under 18s march ever closer to  hopefully a titl...

Send us Fan Mail Episode 72 looks back over last weekend's match against  Dundee United, (making it 3 wins from 4 for Barry Robson as interim manager), and ahead to the Hearts game at Pittodrie on the 18th.  Apparently there's some other competition taking place this weekend that we didn't enter this season. Oh well... We're with the young Dons too as the Under 18s march ever c...

Send us Fan Mail Episode 71 looks back over last weekend's match against Livingston and ahead to this weekend coming versus manager-less rudderless Dundee United, asking - we couldn't again, could we? Tragically, we live in a time where the answer to all measures of reassurance regarding the Dons can be delivered with a forlorn look to nowhere special in the distance and a misty-eyed sig...

Send us Fan Mail Episode 70 should bring some sort of fanfare with it, but unfortunately we have to review a 4-0 defeat at Celtic Park.   We look ahead to this weekend's match against Livingston too, and ask what or who comes next in the game of Football Manager - Dons Edition? We're with the young Dons too as the Under 18s do what the senior team couldn't by recording a victory ove...

Send us Fan Mail Hello, and Happy Alantine's Day, our inaugural celebration of love and adoration for our new CEO Alan Burrows.  We discuss the difference he's made to Motherwell in his time there and what he might do in a similar post for the Dons.  We preview Celtic V Aberdeen, and look back over the week of fixtures for the Dons Under 18s,  Aberdeen Women, Cove Rangers, Peterhead, the...

Send us Fan Mail It's a new Don, it's a new day, and I feel good.   Two games to recap with St Mirren and Motherwell in the rear view.  Ross McCrorie featured for longer in the Red TV film at half time than he did in the match itself against St Mirren, and from that point it was always going to be an uphill struggle, but in Barry's second game in interim charge, his first win agains...

Send us Fan Mail Let the group therapy commence. Just when you think things can't get worse, invariably they always do - BUT hopefully we've rock-bottomed out.  Quick, somebody light a candle.  We look back at the Dons against Hibs, (but not for long), and ahead to St Mirren on Wednesday followed by Motherwell this coming weekend.  And, we check in with the Under 18s, Cove Rangers, Peter...

Send us Fan Mail And we thought there were no words. Turns out there's 40 minutes of them.  Post Darvel. Post Hearts. Post Mortem.  And, we check in with the Under 18s, Aberdeen Women, Cove Rangers and Peterhead - the one team in blue this week who managed to make us almost smile.  As always, Pittodrie PS features Dave Macdermid and Andrew Shinie and is hosted by John Mellis. Strap in, it&apo...

Send us Fan Mail We came, we saw, we....didn't quite conquer.  On Episode 65 we look back at the 2-1 defeat to Rangers in the Viaplay Cup Semi Final, and ahead to the next couple of games as they start to flow thick and fast. A preview of Hearts away in the league and Darvel away in Scottish Cup.  Plus, Paul Hartley's had one full week to address his new Cove team which has shipped 12, s...

Send us Fan Mail Double Duked! A win at last for the Dons and we'll review that game against St Johnstone, as well as look ahead to the Viaplay Cup Semi Final against Rangers. The return of Graeme Shinnie and the arrival of new recruit Patrik Mislovic. Plus, Paul Hartley returned to Cove and almost immediately required open heart surgery as his side shipped 6 to  league leaders Queen's P...

Send us Fan Mail New Year, Old Dons.  So far, anyway. Let the Group Therapy commence. We look back over the last 5 games since the World Cup concluded, including our most recent match against Ross County, as well as ahead to St Johnstone this coming weekend.  Cove score first, then ship SIX, and could the tide be turning for Peterhead with a 0-0 draw against Montrose? There's the latest from...

Send us Fan Mail We're back with a bumper edition to take you through Christmas and New Year. And after a month of no Scottish Football, why were we so delighted to get back to it? We review Celtic at Pittodrie and look ahead not just to Rangers tonight (at time of recording) but also St Mirren, Kilmarnock and Ross County.  And despite a wipeout across the board at the lower levels of the gam...

Send us Fan Mail With a World Cup induced Winter Break wiping clean the top tier of football around the planet for a fourth and final week, we focus on the Dons Under 18s  first off.  There's no Dons game to review but there is one to preview, so how do our pundits think the Dons will fare against Celtic in the lunchtime kick off on Saturday? There's the latest from The Highland League a...

Send us Fan Mail With a World Cup induced Winter Break wiping clean the top tier of football around the planet, we focus on the Dons trip to America and the return to action for Aberdeen Women.  We're with Cove Rangers and Peterhead, as their search for a new manager continues.  There's the latest from The Highland League and Juniors too, as well as a fine end to the  golf season for a t...

Send us Fan Mail We believe the term is 'a white-screen match'.  Or we coined it. One or the other.  It's what we're calling a game of football in the Scottish Premiership that has no active intervention whatsoever from the new VAR system, and that's exactly what happened  for the Dons match against Dundee United last Saturday evening.  We review that (unlike VAR) and ask...

Send us Fan Mail On this week's episode - we look back at the Hibs game, (Hello VAR!), and ahead to an away fixture at Livingston followed by Saturday Night Football against Dundee United at Pittodrie.  Plus, the Under 18s tear Hamilton Accies apart as Alfie Bavidge scores yet another hat-trick.  Cove celebrate a victory over Queen's Park, but Peterhead fall to defeat again.  There'...
