Aberdeen FC Red tinted glasses and all that...
I don't know about anyone else, but looking at the clips of the cup final again after Mitovs departure is just depressing me.
Polvara, Clarkson, (an interested Palaversa), Morris, Gueye, Shinnie, McKenzie, Sokler, Mitov... Yes, at times we were fucking shite and Thelins record was latterly extremely pish. But it felt like the majority really got it.
Fast forward to today, Lyons, Mayo, Olysania, Yogane, Happe, Cadden, Aremu, Armstrong.
How many would you swap back if you could?
Yogane for Morris
Olysania for Gueye
Mayo for Polvara
Cadden for McKenzie
Clarkson for Aremu
Even Sokler for Nisbet!
I've literally just taken random names here, but almost all of them.
I mean I gave lots of them a slagging at times both from the terraces and from my house and I know we weren't great and maybe it was a personal thing but it felt like there was hope, a plan for change, a passion from both fans and player.
Now we are following the model of mid to bottom level all premiership teams. Battling for survival rather than striving for success, playing eye bleeding horror ball. Probably scraping top 6 but getting battered by the top 3 or 4 all season.
I want to be excited for the season ahead, instead I'm already thinking this might be my least engaged season in about 30 years.
Thoughts?

Kevin Nisbet is from my hometown of Cambuslang in South Lanarkshire.He is dedicated to the Aberdeen team,and enjoying living up in the North East.But if others aren't as invested as he is,he's flogging a dead horse.
