Yaaaaasssss! Off season is petering to close. Signings are rare, targets are 10 a penny, and the big boys trot onto the European stage next week! One thing I must put up is the league table, it never looks better than before a ball is kicked: Aberdeen 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ------------------------------------- Diddy team Diddy team Diddy team Diddy team Diddy team ------------------------------------- pfttt, fah cares onywye? So, the cup final losers get shafted out of Europe again. Huzzazh. 7 times we've sent cup runners up into yoorup, 6 times they've been pumped at the first time of asking. This time by representatives of the mighty Lichtenstein. Yaass min. Stupid rules, that could've been Utd getting horsed in yoorup. Utd getting horsed is funny. Dons kick off against the 4th best Czech team rather than the 8th best Icelandic team . We've 2 central defenders in our squad, the best is fit half the time and the other is half fit just now. Our only cover is a young Faroese kid who looked out of his depth against Peterhead last midweek . But all is well, rather than watching our yooro opponents our latest saviour jetted off to Paris to beg for the loan of a 21 year old CB from a team newly relegated to the 3rd tier of French football. Don't Panic!! We'll just have to score more than they do, he said stating the bloody obvious. Problem: 36 league games last season, 41 goals . I'm in the rather unsettling situation of wanting Celtic to win against Dynamo Moscow for seeding purposes. 38 teams get seeded for the Europa League play-off round. If we get through against this Czech mob we're the 41st ranked team. If those with higher co-efficients get pumped out of the CL qualifiers they drop in above us, Sellick are one such team. If 3 more of the 20 higher ranked teams in Europa League 3rd qualifying round get humped than those of higher rank who get pumped out of the CL qualifiers then the mighty Dons get seeded. If we get seeded then we avoid such beasts as Eindhoven, Sparta Prague/Panathinaikos and other assorted horrors in the play-off - and the wondrous new gravy-train created by UEFA awaits... desperate? Damn right! 3rd tier French defenders, on loan, if we're lucky, ffs. Well done to Motherwell for spanking some mob, after dealing with those Welsh upstarts. If they could spank Steau in the next round that'd be super. Anyway, welcome to Super Sainties. A Pox on the houses of those I loathe. Once more unto the Beach End, dear friends. Get intae them, heid first. Stand Free. Come On You Reds. It is not for wealth or glory that we fight... well, actually... May the depressingly predictable and slightly rigged games begin... Predictions: SPL Champions: Satan's XXII Cup Winners: The Dons Diddy Cup Winners: The Dons Number of Scottish teams in Europe past Chrimbo: 0 Number of Scottish Teams at the World Cup: 1 (phuck knows how?)
