We look completely #toothless. The #JimmyThelin of the start of the season would already be looking at the bench, and there are certainty positive options there. #Dons

#Dessers well #offside, but defence looks very shaky. I hope I’m wrong, but it feels like a matter of time. #RANvABDN

#Dons are soft/weak in almost every department. Frankly, Peter Leven team last season had far more backbone/fight than this lot of spineless jellyfish. There is so much to play for. There’s third spot, & there are Cup Final places. They should be bursting a gut. #Aberdeen #COYR

Some may have detected, having yet another clear out of my archives. Just come across audio recording of part of my first game at Wembley in 1981. It's got me in tears. First at John Robertson scoring the winning penalty, & now because kids had recorded carols on the other side!

Can't believe how stilted, and "bools in the mooth" sounded back then. Frank McLintock, who is still going strong at 85, was my co-commentator that day. Only 9 caps for Scotland, but over 300 games for Arsenal, he was one of the best with whom I was lucky enough to work.

Just come across the audio of the #Dons 1983 Cup Winners Cup Final in #Gothenburg. OMG, as the grandkids might say, fetch the Kleenex. #EricBlack has just scored! But how cheapskate the BBC were back then. David Francey was my summariser, & I was his - for a European Final!

Will make this my last post on this subject, but the next tape come across was from Euro 92 when Scotland lost to that worldie by van Basten. My co-commentator that day was the great #WalterSmith. He was outstanding to work with. Walter didn't just turn up. He prepared. Miss him.

OK, one more. The kids (or the strife😡) have recorded over the first game ever did! It was a League Cup cracker between Dundee & Ayr United in 1980. We couldn't afford to buy loads of tapes in those days, so they were used again and again!🤣Bob Seith was my wing man! #MrDundee

FGS! Now found a box of interviews, never broadcast, with some of the greats of golf, Arnold, Tom, Seve, Jack at The Open, Ernie when he was US Open champion at the Sarazen World Open. Used to tape these for own use. Really do need to get these catalogued.

This is becoming both hilarious and ridiculous. Sorry Pars fans, next up is #Larsson in his last game for #Celtic, which is labelled "My best ever commentary on a goal." Not for me to judge if the commentary was any good, but the goal certainly was!

Next up: The game that got me fired! #Rangers v #DynamoKiev. The one where they brought the pitch in. Fired for being too frenetic, apparently! Crikey, Mr Kellard, you should listen to some of today's banshees. This effort distinctly muted by comparison. Right, tea's ready. Bye

Don't worry not much more of this self-indulgent nonsense. Next up, a #shinty commentary. Only been to three shinty matches in my life, & did commentary on all of them, the first featuring the legendary #TarzanRitchie, bleeding from ear to ear. Ach, it's just a wee scratch!

Not exactly a food critic, but have just had the best roll and sausage ever (in over 70+ years). The roll was a lightly crisped sour dough, and the sausage cooked to perfection. Well done #CafeAndaluz, Glasgow. The staff also went over allergy protocols. Very impressed!

#SebastianGorka might just be the #rudest man on the planet. His attempt to belittle Sarah Montague on the The World at One was simply disgraceful. If #DonaldTrump thinks Gorka is a suitable spokesman/adviser, he should think again.

Aided by a couple of brilliant run outs, Cricket Scotland have reduced the #UAE to 99/7 after 32 overs in today's vital #ICCWorldCup #League2 match in Holland.

Brilliant eight wicket win by Cricket Scotland over the #UAE in Holland as the Tri-Series in the #ICCWorldCup #League2 continued. George Munsey set the tone with the bat with another rapid 50+ & great to see Richard Berrington come into form before the final game against the hosts.
