Season Diary 13

Entry #13: 1st November 2008

Aberdeen away today, I'm not going, no chance. Bus would have left by now anyway.

Only been to Aberdeen once, enough to tick it off my list of Scottish grounds i suppose. It was the 3rd of January i went, a good few years ago now. Craig Samson made his only appearane for Killie in that game. Our bus left Macks bar at 8o'clock or something, i was still rough from Ne'erday, ate my breakfast in MacDonalds and spewed it up before Fenwick. We got off the bus and walked up a hill, incidentally the taxi rank where we got off was the strippers but we didnt know, instead we went to three of the worst pubs i have ever set foot in and got a taxi to the game, empty stomach i was drunk roughly half an hour after we arrived in Aberdeen. A brucie bonus, its as if i had known what was coming up next! Sportsound informed us that it was one nil to Aberdeen while we were still in the taxi. We still went and got beat 3-1. It was freezing, the seats are just put onto old terracing meaning they are seriously uncomfortable, there is always hundreds of seagulls (seagulls terrify me) and its hours away on a bus.

I suppose basing my opinions on a trip on a freezing cold third day of the new year isnt the best idea but really i cant see me back in Aberdeen anytime soon, i have maintained since then that Scottish Cup or league decider (!) would be the only way to change my mind.

Of course i am talking bollocks, i would go back if it was a European game also.

A draw would be nice today, and hopefully Killie turn it on again and do it for all they hardy bastards that do what i dont and trek all the way up there to follow us. Roll on 10to5 and a Killie victory creeping up the vidprinter.......................................
