Send us a text Like I said last time - what a difference a week makes, but be sure to take the 'not good' inference this time round. One step forward .... We look back over the week that was - featuring the Motherwell defeat(s) for the Dons men and women, and ahead to the Dundee United fixture next weekend and the International Qualifiers this week. We'll cover Cove and Peterhead in League 1, and the mixed fortunes of the local teams through Highland League and Junior fixtures. All in the compan...

Send us a text Crisis? WHAT CRISIS? What a difference a week makes. 7 points from 10, (and yes, it could've been more). We look back over the week that was - the Rangers and Hearts games, and ahead to the prospect of Motherwell at Pittodrie this coming Saturday with the Dons looking to make it 3 home wins on the bounce. We're across the action of the Aberdeen Women as well as Cove and Peterhead in League 1, and the mixed fortunes of the local teams through Highland League, Scottish Cup, Highland...

Send us a text FINALLY! A Dons win, and this podcast can now unshackle any thoughts it had about being 'the curse'. Not that we ever entertained them seriously. In the Dons week that was, we look back to the game against Hibs, and forward to Rangers at Ibrox and then Hearts back at Pittodrie. We hear from Stephen Glass and Christian Ramirez as well as Hibs manager Jack Ross. Barry Robson looks back over his side's 8-0 victory in Scottish Youth Cup action.

Send us a text Back from an international break, and unfortunately for the Dons, back to the same old story with a 2-1 loss against Dundee. Now 10 without a win, 5 defeats on the bounce. Dave Macdermid and Andrew Shinie are here for Episode 11, looking back at the match at Dens and forward to this weekend's incoming fixture against Hibs. As some fans call for the head of Stephen Glass and declare the experiment concluded, Chairman Dave Cormack joined the BBC to speak publicly and passionately in...

Send us a text In unusually chipper form Dave Macdermid and Andrew Shinie bounce back for Episode 10 without a Dons defeat to analyse - thank God for the international break for giving us that, and one of the most memorable matches in recent years from a Scotland team. We look back at that, as we record the show on the day the national team heads for the Faroe Islands. Surely even WE are incapable of ballsing up the group from this stage - AREN'T WE?! Barry Robson looks back at his young Dons' e...

Send us a text 9 games without a win. The last 4, pointless. Was there cause for renewed optimism at Pittodrie, post Celtic? We discuss. How important has the outcome of the Dundee game become now? With an international break, there's no top flight action this weekend but still plenty to talk about in the company of Dave Macdermid and Andrew Shinie, hosted by John Mellis Support the show...

Send us a text The last time the Dons kept a clean sheet was against Dundee United in the opening game of the season. Since that point optimism and clean sheets have disappeared. Now, Manager Stephen Glass, blaming individual errors for costly concessions has warned his players, if they're not able to cut the mistakes out, someone else from the squad will replace them. We ask, who might be switched out from the first team with Celtic the next visitors at Pittodrie this coming weekend. Joe Lewis?...

Send us a text Another defeat, this time at home to St Johnstone, allowing them to record their first win of the season in a match Callum Davidson described as their worst display of the campaign so far. How do the Dons drag themselves out of the doldrums? Should Stephen Glass continue undeterred with his plans for exciting, open, fluent football, or does he have to compromise his vision in order to stop the downward spiral? How long can aspiration retain prominence over grim reality? But, it's ...

Send us a text Well, it had to happen. The Dons finally lost their first league game of the season - a statistic which undoubtedly masks a different tale of 1 win in 6 matches. Both seem excessive in their expression, so we try to find a middle ground in what is definitely a sticky patch for the club. A look back at the Motherwell match and forward to the visit of St Johnstone this coming weekend. Should alarm bells be ringing or is this just a blip? What needs to happen for us to return to winn...

Send us a text It's the International Break which means the Dons men weren't in action at the weekend, so instead our attention was captured by the Under 18s and the AFC Women's Team, and their respective matches against Arbroath and Celtic. And Steve Clarke needn't look far for his strongest advocate. There's a look back over the week for Cove Rangers and Peterhead as well as Highland League, Juniors, Golf and Tennis. It's all to come in Episode 5 of Pittodrie PS, with Andrew Shine and Dave Mac...

Send us a text It was the week which saw the Dons outclassed by Quarabag in European action and frustrated at home on Sunday by Ross County in the Cinch Premiership. Meanwhile a glut of transfer INS, but will there be any OUTS before the transfer window traditionally SLAMS shut later today. We speculate, and if the boys get any of their guesses right, I'll get them to give us 7 numbers off the top of their head before the Euromillions on Friday. Plus, as the International Break means the Dons me...

Send us a text It was the week which saw the Dons fly to Baku and back. A 1-0 defeat in quick sand meaning the tie is finely balanced when Quarabag make the journey here this coming Thursday night. A fighting spirit and battling performance secured a 1-1 draw at Tynecastle, but with it a mounting injury list. The Aberdeen Women's Team qualified from the group stages of their League Cup with a 1-0 victory over Top Tier opposition in the form of Motherwell. They move onto a Wednesday night clash a...
