My loons have never seen the Dons lose. Two matches, 6 points and 6 goals scored. They were already Dons mad now it’s solidified them as fans for life. What a week at Pittodrie for us.
👋Hi to my recent followers & cheers to Aberdeen folks who’ve shared our story. We’re 3 generations of American Aberdeen supporters making the pilgrimage to Pittodrie, likely last time for some & first time for our boys. My dad was ticket holder 78-85 & went to Gothenburg.
Tuned in and ready to watch
@AberdeenFC
Filled with all the great memories of an incredible 10 days in the Granite City and 2 fantastic matches at Pittodrie. COME ON YOU REDS!!!

Something to note with Polvara signing- gives Aberdeen relevance with potential future 🇺🇸signings. Most US players will know the 2 Glasgow sides but not much more of 🏴fitba. Signing Hermann award winner gives AFC credibility/recognition that previously didn’t exist.

I’m just a dumb American but I understand outside the box means no penalty , but shouldn’t that then result in a direct free kick OUTSIDE the box due to a handball infraction??
❌ NO PENALTY ❌
Bojan Miovski was screaming for a penalty against Liam Scales but after a VAR check, it is ruled that the incident was outside the box.

Thank you to everyone who came and said hi these 10 days, or gave us a beep or helped us in any number of ways (putting up with my driving, getting us right in during a rush at Ma Cameron’s etc). My family and I are grateful and truly fulfilled from this stay in Aberdeen.

I want this guys head on a platter tomorrow. (Figuratively speaking). He’s had his way with us this year and backed up his flapping gums with goals and points. I hope he’s under the skin of Dons players even a fraction of which he’s under mine. Let’s take it to them.

How anyone associated with The Rangers* can read this and not smell something fishy is beyond me.
Not even Juventus, who were actively PAYING referees, has a record this incredible.
Something stinks in Govan.
What a thrill for us all, especially my dad, (

Imagine taking your dog for a walk or pushing the pram along in the local park and coming across the best team in European football.
Soul. Spirit. Seaton Park.
What a welcome to Aberdeen. Off the plane and down the stairs yesterday in snow and winds of 30+ mph. “Holiday in Scotland” dad said to his Florida family😬…. Despite the weather we’re all thrilled to be here!
Aberdeen city council may not be “in the business of funding a football stadium” but they absolutely should be in the business of making Aberdeen a viable and attractive destination. A chance to dramatically change the Beach shouldn’t be downplayed as just a football stadium.
So many positives for the Dons today.
Barron and Clarkson damn near perfect today.
Best game Shinnie has played in weeks.
McGrath deadly.
Devlin such a hard worker.
Polvara nearly perfect as well.

In the box. Rugby tackle. And not even a thought by VAR to review or the AR who was ten yards away to call it? And the center Ref with a clear view of defenders left arm wrapped around Duk. SMH
Looking back, just incredibly lucky to catch the only 2 consecutive league wins this for Aberdeen during our 10 days in Scotland.
Just an amazing trip all around. Cannae wait to return!
Resting up before heading to Pittodrie Bar for a pre match pint or two. I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve.
The walk down Merkland Road, floodlights shining with my Da and two boys may just bring a tear to my eye.
Chronicled forever! Three generations of American Dons supporters!!! The patriarch- 74 year old

travelling 4,101 to the game last night, glad you saw a victory, great memories for you and your family. Enjoy the rest of your stay 🇺🇸🏴
Polvara looking strong out there today. This is the box to box midfielder Bobby Clark was telling us about. Definitely looks like he belongs out there today.

for what it IS. The Falcons were 2-8 but they played hard, had fun, & repped their school. Very proud to be a Falcon.
Fair play to Dave Cormack tweeting that message today. He had to know the vitriol he’d receive in response; at end of day we are all Dandies and I appreciate his message and commitment.

Aberdeen support: Something’s got to give. JG is too stubborn and won’t change his lineup.
Also Aberdeen support after JG shakes things up today: Has JG completely lost it?
One of these fine men will be in the dugout at Pittodrie this evening. The other will be watching Red TV from South Carolina.

Gotta say the improvements at Pittodrie were noticeable on Red TV- from the Astro turf around touch lines to the the ad boards to the full capacity dugouts. The old lady looked good and Red Army sounded great as well.
