Here's my Oscar. Through to Smith at those.

Hewitt. Waiting in the middle.
Aberdeen. Have won the European Cup
Winners Cup, but the celebrations.
Now begin both on the field and all.
(01:46):
It's Graham here. Welcome to the AFC Don's cast on
Sunday the 5th of October. Hope you've been safe and well
following Storm Amy Aberdeen, we're back into the European
lights on Thursday night as Shakhter Dennis came to
Pittodrie of what promised to bea special occasion.
The Dons were looking to build on our recent performances,
improve ourselves on the continental stage, the Red Army
behind them. The Mittaline side needed to
(02:07):
show energy and belief to see usthrough the match.
Chuck Derd arrived with a strongpedigree, regulars in the
Champions League, packed with technical quality and capable of
punishing any mistakes. But for Aberdeen, there's a
chance to test ourselves againstone of Europe's most seasoned
sites and perhaps bring a surprise in front of a packed
home crowd. I think like it's this night is
(02:32):
always special, especially on Pittodrie.
So Europe, Europe, Europe is really important for our players
and our club to be there and also perform there.
So that's another focus. But still the domestic league
is, is also super important. We know that.
So but right now we focus on this game, It's football and
(02:54):
that's a, it's a, it's a cup andit's football.
We have to believe in ourselves.And tomorrow is 11 versus 11 out
there. I know you can always think
about the budgets in these kind of things and that's a part of
the reality, but right now tomorrow is 1 game and we have a
strong belief in our own performance tomorrow.
What a night it was under the lights at the tawdry, a proper
(03:15):
European occasion, the kind thatgets the heart racing and the
stands bouncing. Shark der Donetsk may be one of
the favourites to go all the wayin this year's Conference
League, but make no mistake, they were made to fight every
inch of the way by us in a pulsating contest in Mittalene
shuffled his back after the disappointment at Motherwell. 5
changes in all. Then came Clarkson, Kiskinen,
Lassettich, Armstrong and Dorrington, with Nikki Devlin
(03:36):
waiting the armband on a blastery evening and Aberdeen
flew out the blocks just 6 minutes in The high press paid
off a corner win and then drama handball given after AVER check
AP step Yesper Carlson ball blown off the spot by the wind.
Tension rationing app. No matter he buried it into the
bottom corner. One nil to the dots.
Almost straight from kick off. Clarkson was gifted a site of
(03:58):
goal after a poor clearance by Resnick at his shot flash wide.
A huge chance to double the lead.
At the other end, Bondar somehowmissed the target from six
yards. A let off for Aberdeen.
Shakdar began to find their feet, Henrik denied by Mittal's
strong hands. But just before the break the
pressure told a corner recycled,Armstrong's defensive header
flicking kindly to the Nazarena who lashed a left footed strike
(04:19):
across goal and into the far corner.
Harsh on the Dons at all square at half time into the
second-half and within minutes Shakhtar turned it around.
A deep cross from Marlon Lucas left free at the back post.
It was 21. Aberdeen tried to respond,
Clarksons free kick forcing panic, Lasatich going close
twice but on 59 minutes Henriquemade it three with a thunderous
(04:39):
Dr inside the post. A mountain to climb.
But the dawns weren't done. Changes came.
Shania Nielsen on and back they came.
Lazatich with attach a class chest control spin volley.
A brilliant save onto the bar byResnick.
But there was captain Devlin charging in to nod home the
rebound. 3 two and Pittodrie erupted once more.
The closing stages were breathless.
(04:59):
Kiskinen had a low strike saved.Devlin threw himself into a
heroic block at the other end until he threw on fresh legs
Yankee and Elizabeth for the final push.
Even Shakhtar's goalkeeper was booked for time wasting.
A measure of the pressure Aberdeen when applying in
stoppage time chance of the night, shed his corner, finding
Hilton and Nielsen but stretching behind him his header
glanced wide. Agonisingly close to the
equaliser the performance deserved.
(05:21):
Aberdeen 2 Shocked their Donetsk3.
What a shift from Aberdeen. They may not have the points but
they've won pride and belief. On another night it could so
easily have been a famous European scalp.
Shocked their lead Pataudry knowing they've been in a real
game. Jimmy, how do you feel after the
performance and result? I think performance wise we show
(05:44):
some good spirit again in connection with our fans that
talk about before the other games we were missing a little
bit this personality on the pitch, taking the initiatives,
how we arrive to the box, how westand up in the duels.
That was a good part and the connection with the fans after
the game and now we have to go forward to the Sunday game
against Dundee. Of course now we lose again so
(06:06):
it's and also their, their, their second and the third goal.
The score is, is just too easy and then we have to do better in
the future and show the same desperation in this moment and
and defend these goals. But the hunger and the Subs who
come in and they never gave up was free.
One down and we pushed to the last minute to get an equaliser.
(06:28):
What's changed this week then? Perhaps for the players to show
more initiative or bravery. The way we're working, we're
pushing so hard in the training sessions now.
Everybody has to contribute. We have a lot of games and we
talk about this connection with our fans.
We have to connect with them, wehave to give them something to
believe in. We have to show this passion on
on the pitch so they can have a strong belief in US and then we
(06:51):
push together with them. Have you changed anything,
particularly in training, to encourage that from the players?
We've always, we've always triedto train as hard as possible.
It's a lot of games now, but we have to push the players and,
and so we can be strong and this, this intensity up and, but
it's nothing specific. We always do that, but a little
bit more how we play and how we arrive to the box.
(07:11):
Is that probably the most significant display of support
that you've seen this season from the Aberdeen fans at full
time? I think we always got what you
deserve today. The players show that they they
fight for, for this club and they show this on the pitch and
we can't talk about things we have to show and, and the, the
last part of the game today the fans could feel that there's a
(07:31):
team out there who's fighting for Aberdeen Football Club and
it's they can be proud of their effort.
And that's the, the, the, the first thing to show the fans
now. Then we have to keep working
with our performance and get some results now in the league
also. How did you feel at the side of
the pitch when 31 down? I'm not sure many people would
have expected that response fromAberdeen.
Now we, I think we always have to believe in that.
(07:53):
We I think I feel we were right for the third one.
I think the third one was reallybad timing.
We're prepared to do some changes before that to get this
extra spark in the game. But we still saw that we can can
more give you close in the one against one marking.
And also they saw that we have opportunities when we're adding
more players around the box. What about the threat and the
(08:13):
final third? Were you happy with the
performances and what was shown in attack by Carlson and
Clarkson before he was substituted in Lazatich as well?
Yeah, I think it's it's all morelike this and that personality
responsibility to take more insertives on the pitch.
Don't don't just give the ball to someone else.
They how they play together, of course, but also when they have
the ball to take these opportunities.
I think even how they turn and take the shots and they go for
(08:36):
the rebounds in a different desperation in a good way.
Is that something that you thinklies mainly on the player's
shoulders for them to feel comfortable to take that
bravery, or does that come from the side?
No, I think we always in, in everything together.
So they, they just need to keep pushing and believe.
They have to show that we believe in ourselves so other
(08:59):
people can believe in us. You know, you always have to
take this. You have to always never, never,
never hesitate, never stop believing and push for it.
What is it about the second or third goal that you are unhappy
with? This third one is the is the
second ball situation. We I think we should be more
desperation there as a team and and of course the the pressure
on the the second one. And also, of course, the
(09:19):
situation that when the when thescorer that's goal is more about
this small extra step. This what if or how we prepare
the worst case scenario in this situation so we can stay
connected all the time to to I think I think there was only the
they have this three chances andthey score all three all shot on
the goal. So of course with this extra
(09:39):
power can help our goalkeeper and and protect the goal better.
So that's two, I would suggest quite encouraging performances
with the the new shape is, is that something that you might
prioritise now going forward you?
Can see like we can, I think theshape of the system is just to
support the balance of the team.And right now we think we need
this balance to to cover space and areas for Self, but
(10:02):
especially for how we're attacking more play central on
the pitch. And that's, that's important for
us, yeah. Thank you very.
Much, Jimmy. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Bronze. Command Expo 1 Oh my God there
is a chemical weapon in the cab.We are dealing with a serial
(10:24):
killer. The devices are designed to
kill, but first he wants to suffocate them.
Everyone. Is going to find out the truth.
I've got a team out there dealing with these devices.
Stop pushing me out. I can't watch you give
(10:46):
everything until you've got nothing left.
I take risks. That's my job, Lana.
What's? Talk to me mate.
Don't move. Brand new trigger point coming
soon. On ITV One and.
(11:07):
ITVX. After a pulsating European night
on Thursday, was back to domestic duty for Aberdeen
earlier today and it was a big one at Petaudrey as Dandy came
calling with the October international break.
Glooming Yami Talim wanted his side to head into it on a high
and crucially, with that first league win of the season finally
secured, Dandy arrived in the Granite City with a mixed start
(11:28):
under new boss Stephen Presley. One win, one draw on three
defeats in their opening 5 league games.
Jimmy, this feels like a a very big game today.
What are your thoughts before this one?
Yeah, of course. I think every game for us is a
big game and it's always in thisfootball club, it's this
important game, especially when we play at home.
But because of the start of the season, of course we can feel
(11:51):
it's a different part of this now, but it has never changed
anyway. We need to be, we need to keep
building on the performance on Thursday night.
We didn't win that game, but howwe ended that game with
energetic way of playing. That's what we need to show from
minute 1 today in in the game and and build on that one and
get the performance so we can get the results.
Yeah, you mentioned it. There are a very good
(12:11):
performance here on Thursday. The the crowd was with you and
the team. How important is it to to take
that into today against Dundee? I think like always, I think
like the connection with our supporters is important.
That's why you need to play witheverything you have every every
minute to play for this club andI think the players feel that on
1st day that now we have to go from there and and don't drop
(12:36):
this and we have to keep building.
That's how we did some changes today to it's a quick turn
around and we need this energy from minute 1 today and connects
from the beginning and then the performance will be the strong
that we also can deserve a good result.
Yeah, you mentioned a quick turnaround.
Is that the the thinking in the team news today?
I think 5 changes obviously two games and and quick succession.
What? What's your thinking behind
(12:57):
behind those changes? Yeah, I think some of the
players, the players from start today have played a lot of
games. So it's not like we disrupt
connection inside a team, but it's a quick turn around from
first day and some of the players who played that game was
the first more or less 90 minutes.
So I don't think they have the minutes to play to start again.
But they can still make a reallybig impact on this game today.
(13:17):
So we need fresh legs and we canhave this energy on the pitch
from in the 1 today. All the best today.
Thank you so much. At long last we have our first
league win of the season and we did it in style at Pittodrie. 3
first half goals and just 11 minutes blew Dandy away as Yami
Talin's side produced a performance full of energy and
(13:38):
quality. Jasper Carlson opened the
scoring from the penalty spot after AVAR handball check before
a deal of Sheesh bandled in his first Dawn's goal.
Then Emmanuel Ghantfi got in on the arc, guiding home a superb
Armstrong cross to make it 3 before the break.
In the second-half, Carlson added a second, a brilliant solo
strike into the far corner, the cap off a commanding display.
(13:58):
A4 nil win, a clean sheet and a massive lift for the Red Army
heading into the international break.
Yeah, a fantastic victory this afternoon.
How are you feeling after that one?
No, I'm so happy for the the players and everybody connected
with that break Football club tocelebrate together.
It's been really tough weeks andbut we have don't go too deep.
(14:20):
We have to try to be strong all the time and focus on the right
things and try to work day by day and and improve ourselves.
And we saw some signs against Shakhtar and today was a really
good performance again and also with a short turn around.
So I'm I'm proud of the players that they get this mentality.
They they're pressing harder, they're running more.
(14:43):
They were strong in the duers and then the rest of the things
will come more like connections and today the again, the
connection with the fans and thethe whole game and and and the
spirit that this dynamic rates. It's I'm really happy for
everybody involved. Yeah, not just the the victory
today, but the the quality in which the way you know that you
(15:04):
won, quality of the goals, quality of the football, the
clean sheet as well. You know everything went to
plan, as you say, only a start, but you know a a very good way
to do it. Yeah, it was some really good
goals and the way we stay more connected in in certain of the
pitch and but still have the width and and the running
capacity. So and also that we are getting
(15:26):
a little bit more intense and our pressing and step by step
week by week. And so it was a good start of
the game of course and then we could play on that.
So it was it was a good, good day for.
Everyone and yes we're getting his first Premiership goal and
1st Aberdeen goals for Adeel andEmmanuel as well.
That that must please you. Yeah, it does.
I think. Again, we have some chances
(15:51):
before today and been been really close for a while now to
score that goal and and finally we could do it in the league.
I think like if you keep doing agood job and everybody's
focusing the right things and don't get the stressed and
because the chances have been there in the other games, but
today finally we get get the results also.
(16:11):
International break coming up nice to to head into that with
with some positivity and you you'll be hoping to come back
next time out away to Saint Mirren, you know, and and take
the the Schachter performance and and today's performance and
and victory into that. Yeah, I think like you have that
we have to keep growing. It's still, we know that we, we,
it's a lot of tough games still in the league.
(16:32):
And so now again, as before, stay calm and we have, we know
we have to improve, we have to get better.
We have to keep believing yourself and build it step by
step and week by week and and take it game by game.

TV Plus. OK, let's catch up with the news
then. And Harlow Park and Inverudi was
the stage for Friday night's Albertine Cherkat final as
Aberdeen B took on for Martin United in stormy conditions
brought by Storm Amy. Aberdeen 35 time winners of the
competition, had seen off Fraser, Brad Banks City and
Becky Thistle on their way to the final.
For Martins route came through Inveruri Locos, Tariff United
(19:46):
and Handley. And just like in the semifinals,
Stewart Daf named a mixed Dons 11 featuring first team squad
members Peter Ambrose, Mitchell Frame Kirton and Mark Cartmanson
and Dylan Lobbin. Neighbours Dylan and Graham
Roger capped in the sides on thenight, but it was Aberdeen who
adapted fastest to the swirling winds.
After 17 minutes, Lewis Carroll's deep cross caused
problems for the Firmartin defence.
(20:08):
Peter Ambrose reacted quickest, slotting past Stuart Mackenzie
to give the Dons the lead On 29 minutes.
Zach Toll showed his pace down the left wing before cutting
back for Cartoonson, who rifled his finish past Mackenzie at the
near post for two nil. At half time it looked
comfortable for the Yang Dons but the second-half belonged to
Firmartin. Substitute Scott Adams pulled
one back on 52 minutes after a gold my scramble and then on 71
(20:30):
minutes Adam Norris rose at the near post to glance Hamish
Riches cross beyond Rodrigo Vettels to all and all to play
for. From there it was end to end.
Rhys Thomas struck the bar for Aberdeen from a free kick while
McAllister and Norris kept pressing for for Martin and with
no further breakthrough it was straight to penalties.
Goalkeeper Vettos became the hero of the night, pulling off 2
crucial saves to put the Dons onthe brink and AB step Christian
(20:52):
Stephen who calmly dispatched the 5th and final penalty to
seal the victory. It's a first Aberdeenshire cap
triumph for Aberdeen in 21 years, ending a long wait in
dramatic fashion. A night of drama, swirling winds
and a thrilling shootout. But in the end of silverware for
the Dons Yang Ganz, it's been confirmed that Aberdeen defender
Christos Tobers is set for an extended spell on the sidelines
(21:13):
after sustaining a knee injury in last weekend's match against
Motherwell. The club's medical staff are
working closely with specialiststo determine the full extent of
the injury, but early indications suggest Tobers could
be out for a significant part ofthe season.
Under new UEFA regulations, clubs can now replace long term
injured players in their European squads.
As a result, on loan, Tottenham Hotspur defender Alfie
(21:34):
Dorrington has been added to Aberdeen's UEFA Conference
League squad and featured in thegame against Shakhtar.
Abdeen looks set to miss out on Lutz Fan and Steel as their new
director of football. The chairman, who held talks
with the Dons and expressed interest in the role, is now in
advance discussions with Borussian Munchengar Blast after
becoming their sporting director.
Steel, formerly of Saint Louis City Hoffenheim and Fortuna
(21:56):
Dusseldorf as close links to Aberdeen through the consultancy
BPTC, which carried out a football review of Pataudry last
year. The Donsa search continues with
Alan Barrows and Dave Laurie leading the process alongside an
external recruitment firm as they look to appoint a successor
to Stephen Gann later this month.
The club has revealed the findings of a major new economic
(22:16):
study on plans for a community stadium at Aberdeen beach.
The independent report by BiggerEconomics show the project could
deliver at least £1.6 billion for the local economy over the
next 50 years, doubling the club's current contribution.
The new stadium would add £32,000,000 a year and create a
or safeguard more than 1100 jobs, while construction alone
(22:37):
would bring a further 42,000,000LB boost and support.
Over 600 jobs. Could also attract 110,000 extra
visitors every year, host major sporting events including rugby,
internationals and women's football finals and launch a new
youth football festival worth upto £9 million annually.
Chairman Dave Cormack said the plans represent a huge
opportunity for Aberdeen, urgingcity leaders to back what he
(22:58):
called an utterly compelling case for long term investment.
And finally, it's full steam ahead for the Scottish Cap
Trophy tour and next stop, it's heading north.
Building on the success of the Aberdeen City Lake, where more
than 20,000 fans have already posed with the famous
silverware, the historic Scottish Cap is now bound for
Shetland and Orkney as part of the Highlands and Islands Lake,
(23:18):
proudly presented by North Link Ferries.
This Wednesday, the trophy will dock in Shetland, taking pride
of place at the Clicking and Leisure Complex in Lerwick from
10:00 AM to 4:00 PM where supporters can come along and
get their photo with the cap. Then on Thursday it's over to
Orkney, with visits planned to several local schools before an
evening session with the Orkney Dawn Supporters Club.
The trip marks another step in Aberdeen FC Community Trace
(23:40):
effort to connect with fans across the islands, but in long
term relationships with schools,grassroots clubs and of course
the passionate Dawn supporters who proudly back the team from
afar. Once the Highlands and Islands
leg is complete, the Scottish cap will make its way back to
Aberdeenshire and beyond, including more stops around the
city not covered in the first phase of the tour.
(24:05):
Maybe I have. Got a dark side.
I'm here to win. I don't know what.
Beasts lie within me. I'm going to fight.
Till the death. Players, welcome to the
Highlands. Oh my goodness, there it is.
Now I know out in the real worldyou're very important and
successful, but here there is nospecial treatment.
(24:29):
Traitors remain undetected. Murder the faithful.
Is this an alliance? Faithful, you must hunt down the
traitors. I want to win.
I'm not going to lie, I want to win.
Oh God, this. Is life our death, isn't it?
Faith Me too. Go forth and murder.
That's quite a twist. I have selected my traitors.
(24:52):

Ring that up. $3000 The Tony andRyan Podcast Saturday Thursday
(27:27):
on YouTube It was back to the Balmoral Stadium this afternoon
for Aberdeen Women as they facedSWPL 2 side Kilmarnock in the
Sky Sports cap and it proved to be a winning return with the
Dons booking our place in the next round after a dominant
second-half display following last weekend's defeat to
Madiwell. Scott Booth made three changes
on a prower between the six withFrancesca Ogilvy and Tony Lee
(27:48):
Finnegan returning to the starting line up.
The opening 45 minutes saw both sides trade chances with Prower
and Kilmarnock keeper Holly Kerrigan kept busy but
untroubled. Eva Thompson and Holly Daniel
were at the heart of Aberdeen's best moves, while Kilmarnock's
Abbey Robinson went closest before the break, forcing Prower
into a fine save. Half time goalless at the
Bomodel but that was all about to change.
(28:09):
Scott Booth made three attackingsubstitutions at the restart and
they paid off within minutes. Kelly Beatty combined with Amy
Black the substitute slotting home from close range to give
the Dons the lead. Kilmarnock hit back quickly,
Kelsey Craney looping an equaliser over Pror after a
defensive mix up, but the Dons weren't to be denied.
Francesca Ogilvy's determinationon the left created the chance
(28:30):
for captain Hannah Stewart to flick home and restore the
advantage and the victory was sealed in the closing stages,
Finnegan finding Beattie inside the box and she made no mistake,
curling an effort in off the post to wrap up a well earned 3

Aberdeen. Have won the European Cup
Winners Cup, but the celebrations.
Now begin both on the field and all.
(01:46):
It's Graham here. Welcome to the AFC Don's cast on
Sunday the 5th of October. Hope you've been safe and well
following Storm Amy Aberdeen, we're back into the European
lights on Thursday night as Shakhter Dennis came to
Pittodrie of what promised to bea special occasion.
The Dons were looking to build on our recent performances,
improve ourselves on the continental stage, the Red Army
behind them. The Mittaline side needed to
(02:07):
show energy and belief to see usthrough the match.
Chuck Derd arrived with a strongpedigree, regulars in the
Champions League, packed with technical quality and capable of
punishing any mistakes. But for Aberdeen, there's a
chance to test ourselves againstone of Europe's most seasoned
sites and perhaps bring a surprise in front of a packed
home crowd. I think like it's this night is
(02:32):
always special, especially on Pittodrie.
So Europe, Europe, Europe is really important for our players
and our club to be there and also perform there.
So that's another focus. But still the domestic league
is, is also super important. We know that.
So but right now we focus on this game, It's football and
(02:54):
that's a, it's a, it's a cup andit's football.
We have to believe in ourselves.And tomorrow is 11 versus 11 out
there. I know you can always think
about the budgets in these kind of things and that's a part of
the reality, but right now tomorrow is 1 game and we have a
strong belief in our own performance tomorrow.
What a night it was under the lights at the tawdry, a proper
(03:15):
European occasion, the kind thatgets the heart racing and the
stands bouncing. Shark der Donetsk may be one of
the favourites to go all the wayin this year's Conference
League, but make no mistake, they were made to fight every
inch of the way by us in a pulsating contest in Mittalene
shuffled his back after the disappointment at Motherwell. 5
changes in all. Then came Clarkson, Kiskinen,
Lassettich, Armstrong and Dorrington, with Nikki Devlin
(03:36):
waiting the armband on a blastery evening and Aberdeen
flew out the blocks just 6 minutes in The high press paid
off a corner win and then drama handball given after AVER check
AP step Yesper Carlson ball blown off the spot by the wind.
Tension rationing app. No matter he buried it into the
bottom corner. One nil to the dots.
Almost straight from kick off. Clarkson was gifted a site of
(03:58):
goal after a poor clearance by Resnick at his shot flash wide.
A huge chance to double the lead.
At the other end, Bondar somehowmissed the target from six
yards. A let off for Aberdeen.
Shakdar began to find their feet, Henrik denied by Mittal's
strong hands. But just before the break the
pressure told a corner recycled,Armstrong's defensive header
flicking kindly to the Nazarena who lashed a left footed strike
(04:19):
across goal and into the far corner.
Harsh on the Dons at all square at half time into the
second-half and within minutes Shakhtar turned it around.
A deep cross from Marlon Lucas left free at the back post.
It was 21. Aberdeen tried to respond,
Clarksons free kick forcing panic, Lasatich going close
twice but on 59 minutes Henriquemade it three with a thunderous
(04:39):
Dr inside the post. A mountain to climb.
But the dawns weren't done. Changes came.
Shania Nielsen on and back they came.
Lazatich with attach a class chest control spin volley.
A brilliant save onto the bar byResnick.
But there was captain Devlin charging in to nod home the
rebound. 3 two and Pittodrie erupted once more.
The closing stages were breathless.
(04:59):
Kiskinen had a low strike saved.Devlin threw himself into a
heroic block at the other end until he threw on fresh legs
Yankee and Elizabeth for the final push.
Even Shakhtar's goalkeeper was booked for time wasting.
A measure of the pressure Aberdeen when applying in
stoppage time chance of the night, shed his corner, finding
Hilton and Nielsen but stretching behind him his header
glanced wide. Agonisingly close to the
equaliser the performance deserved.
(05:21):
Aberdeen 2 Shocked their Donetsk3.
What a shift from Aberdeen. They may not have the points but
they've won pride and belief. On another night it could so
easily have been a famous European scalp.
Shocked their lead Pataudry knowing they've been in a real
game. Jimmy, how do you feel after the
performance and result? I think performance wise we show
(05:44):
some good spirit again in connection with our fans that
talk about before the other games we were missing a little
bit this personality on the pitch, taking the initiatives,
how we arrive to the box, how westand up in the duels.
That was a good part and the connection with the fans after
the game and now we have to go forward to the Sunday game
against Dundee. Of course now we lose again so
(06:06):
it's and also their, their, their second and the third goal.
The score is, is just too easy and then we have to do better in
the future and show the same desperation in this moment and
and defend these goals. But the hunger and the Subs who
come in and they never gave up was free.
One down and we pushed to the last minute to get an equaliser.
(06:28):
What's changed this week then? Perhaps for the players to show
more initiative or bravery. The way we're working, we're
pushing so hard in the training sessions now.
Everybody has to contribute. We have a lot of games and we
talk about this connection with our fans.
We have to connect with them, wehave to give them something to
believe in. We have to show this passion on
on the pitch so they can have a strong belief in US and then we
(06:51):
push together with them. Have you changed anything,
particularly in training, to encourage that from the players?
We've always, we've always triedto train as hard as possible.
It's a lot of games now, but we have to push the players and,
and so we can be strong and this, this intensity up and, but
it's nothing specific. We always do that, but a little
bit more how we play and how we arrive to the box.
(07:11):
Is that probably the most significant display of support
that you've seen this season from the Aberdeen fans at full
time? I think we always got what you
deserve today. The players show that they they
fight for, for this club and they show this on the pitch and
we can't talk about things we have to show and, and the, the
last part of the game today the fans could feel that there's a
(07:31):
team out there who's fighting for Aberdeen Football Club and
it's they can be proud of their effort.
And that's the, the, the, the first thing to show the fans
now. Then we have to keep working
with our performance and get some results now in the league
also. How did you feel at the side of
the pitch when 31 down? I'm not sure many people would
have expected that response fromAberdeen.
Now we, I think we always have to believe in that.
(07:53):
We I think I feel we were right for the third one.
I think the third one was reallybad timing.
We're prepared to do some changes before that to get this
extra spark in the game. But we still saw that we can can
more give you close in the one against one marking.
And also they saw that we have opportunities when we're adding
more players around the box. What about the threat and the
(08:13):
final third? Were you happy with the
performances and what was shown in attack by Carlson and
Clarkson before he was substituted in Lazatich as well?
Yeah, I think it's it's all morelike this and that personality
responsibility to take more insertives on the pitch.
Don't don't just give the ball to someone else.
They how they play together, of course, but also when they have
the ball to take these opportunities.
I think even how they turn and take the shots and they go for
(08:36):
the rebounds in a different desperation in a good way.
Is that something that you thinklies mainly on the player's
shoulders for them to feel comfortable to take that
bravery, or does that come from the side?
No, I think we always in, in everything together.
So they, they just need to keep pushing and believe.
They have to show that we believe in ourselves so other
(08:59):
people can believe in us. You know, you always have to
take this. You have to always never, never,
never hesitate, never stop believing and push for it.
What is it about the second or third goal that you are unhappy
with? This third one is the is the
second ball situation. We I think we should be more
desperation there as a team and and of course the the pressure
on the the second one. And also, of course, the
(09:19):
situation that when the when thescorer that's goal is more about
this small extra step. This what if or how we prepare
the worst case scenario in this situation so we can stay
connected all the time to to I think I think there was only the
they have this three chances andthey score all three all shot on
the goal. So of course with this extra
(09:39):
power can help our goalkeeper and and protect the goal better.
So that's two, I would suggest quite encouraging performances
with the the new shape is, is that something that you might
prioritise now going forward you?
Can see like we can, I think theshape of the system is just to
support the balance of the team.And right now we think we need
this balance to to cover space and areas for Self, but
(10:02):
especially for how we're attacking more play central on
the pitch. And that's, that's important for
us, yeah. Thank you very.
Much, Jimmy. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Bronze. Command Expo 1 Oh my God there
is a chemical weapon in the cab.We are dealing with a serial
(10:24):
killer. The devices are designed to
kill, but first he wants to suffocate them.
Everyone. Is going to find out the truth.
I've got a team out there dealing with these devices.
Stop pushing me out. I can't watch you give
(10:46):
everything until you've got nothing left.
I take risks. That's my job, Lana.
What's? Talk to me mate.
Don't move. Brand new trigger point coming
soon. On ITV One and.
(11:07):
ITVX. After a pulsating European night
on Thursday, was back to domestic duty for Aberdeen
earlier today and it was a big one at Petaudrey as Dandy came
calling with the October international break.
Glooming Yami Talim wanted his side to head into it on a high
and crucially, with that first league win of the season finally
secured, Dandy arrived in the Granite City with a mixed start
(11:28):
under new boss Stephen Presley. One win, one draw on three
defeats in their opening 5 league games.
Jimmy, this feels like a a very big game today.
What are your thoughts before this one?
Yeah, of course. I think every game for us is a
big game and it's always in thisfootball club, it's this
important game, especially when we play at home.
But because of the start of the season, of course we can feel
(11:51):
it's a different part of this now, but it has never changed
anyway. We need to be, we need to keep
building on the performance on Thursday night.
We didn't win that game, but howwe ended that game with
energetic way of playing. That's what we need to show from
minute 1 today in in the game and and build on that one and
get the performance so we can get the results.
Yeah, you mentioned it. There are a very good
(12:11):
performance here on Thursday. The the crowd was with you and
the team. How important is it to to take
that into today against Dundee? I think like always, I think
like the connection with our supporters is important.
That's why you need to play witheverything you have every every
minute to play for this club andI think the players feel that on
1st day that now we have to go from there and and don't drop
(12:36):
this and we have to keep building.
That's how we did some changes today to it's a quick turn
around and we need this energy from minute 1 today and connects
from the beginning and then the performance will be the strong
that we also can deserve a good result.
Yeah, you mentioned a quick turnaround.
Is that the the thinking in the team news today?
I think 5 changes obviously two games and and quick succession.
What? What's your thinking behind
(12:57):
behind those changes? Yeah, I think some of the
players, the players from start today have played a lot of
games. So it's not like we disrupt
connection inside a team, but it's a quick turn around from
first day and some of the players who played that game was
the first more or less 90 minutes.
So I don't think they have the minutes to play to start again.
But they can still make a reallybig impact on this game today.
(13:17):
So we need fresh legs and we canhave this energy on the pitch
from in the 1 today. All the best today.
Thank you so much. At long last we have our first
league win of the season and we did it in style at Pittodrie. 3
first half goals and just 11 minutes blew Dandy away as Yami
Talin's side produced a performance full of energy and
(13:38):
quality. Jasper Carlson opened the
scoring from the penalty spot after AVAR handball check before
a deal of Sheesh bandled in his first Dawn's goal.
Then Emmanuel Ghantfi got in on the arc, guiding home a superb
Armstrong cross to make it 3 before the break.
In the second-half, Carlson added a second, a brilliant solo
strike into the far corner, the cap off a commanding display.
(13:58):
A4 nil win, a clean sheet and a massive lift for the Red Army
heading into the international break.
Yeah, a fantastic victory this afternoon.
How are you feeling after that one?
No, I'm so happy for the the players and everybody connected
with that break Football club tocelebrate together.
It's been really tough weeks andbut we have don't go too deep.
(14:20):
We have to try to be strong all the time and focus on the right
things and try to work day by day and and improve ourselves.
And we saw some signs against Shakhtar and today was a really
good performance again and also with a short turn around.
So I'm I'm proud of the players that they get this mentality.
They they're pressing harder, they're running more.
(14:43):
They were strong in the duers and then the rest of the things
will come more like connections and today the again, the
connection with the fans and thethe whole game and and and the
spirit that this dynamic rates. It's I'm really happy for
everybody involved. Yeah, not just the the victory
today, but the the quality in which the way you know that you
(15:04):
won, quality of the goals, quality of the football, the
clean sheet as well. You know everything went to
plan, as you say, only a start, but you know a a very good way
to do it. Yeah, it was some really good
goals and the way we stay more connected in in certain of the
pitch and but still have the width and and the running
capacity. So and also that we are getting
(15:26):
a little bit more intense and our pressing and step by step
week by week. And so it was a good start of
the game of course and then we could play on that.
So it was it was a good, good day for.
Everyone and yes we're getting his first Premiership goal and
1st Aberdeen goals for Adeel andEmmanuel as well.
That that must please you. Yeah, it does.
I think. Again, we have some chances
(15:51):
before today and been been really close for a while now to
score that goal and and finally we could do it in the league.
I think like if you keep doing agood job and everybody's
focusing the right things and don't get the stressed and
because the chances have been there in the other games, but
today finally we get get the results also.
(16:11):
International break coming up nice to to head into that with
with some positivity and you you'll be hoping to come back
next time out away to Saint Mirren, you know, and and take
the the Schachter performance and and today's performance and
and victory into that. Yeah, I think like you have that
we have to keep growing. It's still, we know that we, we,
it's a lot of tough games still in the league.
(16:32):
And so now again, as before, stay calm and we have, we know
we have to improve, we have to get better.
We have to keep believing yourself and build it step by
step and week by week and and take it game by game.

then. And Harlow Park and Inverudi was
the stage for Friday night's Albertine Cherkat final as

brought by Storm Amy. Aberdeen 35 time winners of the
competition, had seen off Fraser, Brad Banks City and
Becky Thistle on their way to the final.
For Martins route came through Inveruri Locos, Tariff United
(19:46):
and Handley. And just like in the semifinals,
Stewart Daf named a mixed Dons 11 featuring first team squad
members Peter Ambrose, Mitchell Frame Kirton and Mark Cartmanson
and Dylan Lobbin. Neighbours Dylan and Graham
Roger capped in the sides on thenight, but it was Aberdeen who
adapted fastest to the swirling winds.
After 17 minutes, Lewis Carroll's deep cross caused
problems for the Firmartin defence.
(20:08):
Peter Ambrose reacted quickest, slotting past Stuart Mackenzie
to give the Dons the lead On 29 minutes.
Zach Toll showed his pace down the left wing before cutting
back for Cartoonson, who rifled his finish past Mackenzie at the
near post for two nil. At half time it looked
comfortable for the Yang Dons but the second-half belonged to
Firmartin. Substitute Scott Adams pulled
one back on 52 minutes after a gold my scramble and then on 71
(20:30):
minutes Adam Norris rose at the near post to glance Hamish
Riches cross beyond Rodrigo Vettels to all and all to play
for. From there it was end to end.
Rhys Thomas struck the bar for Aberdeen from a free kick while
McAllister and Norris kept pressing for for Martin and with
no further breakthrough it was straight to penalties.
Goalkeeper Vettos became the hero of the night, pulling off 2
crucial saves to put the Dons onthe brink and AB step Christian
(20:52):
Stephen who calmly dispatched the 5th and final penalty to
seal the victory. It's a first Aberdeenshire cap
triumph for Aberdeen in 21 years, ending a long wait in
dramatic fashion. A night of drama, swirling winds
and a thrilling shootout. But in the end of silverware for
the Dons Yang Ganz, it's been confirmed that Aberdeen defender
Christos Tobers is set for an extended spell on the sidelines
(21:13):
after sustaining a knee injury in last weekend's match against
Motherwell. The club's medical staff are
working closely with specialiststo determine the full extent of
the injury, but early indications suggest Tobers could
be out for a significant part ofthe season.
Under new UEFA regulations, clubs can now replace long term
injured players in their European squads.
As a result, on loan, Tottenham Hotspur defender Alfie
(21:34):
Dorrington has been added to Aberdeen's UEFA Conference
League squad and featured in thegame against Shakhtar.
Abdeen looks set to miss out on Lutz Fan and Steel as their new
director of football. The chairman, who held talks
with the Dons and expressed interest in the role, is now in
advance discussions with Borussian Munchengar Blast after
becoming their sporting director.
Steel, formerly of Saint Louis City Hoffenheim and Fortuna

BPTC, which carried out a football review of Pataudry last
year. The Donsa search continues with
Alan Barrows and Dave Laurie leading the process alongside an
external recruitment firm as they look to appoint a successor
to Stephen Gann later this month.
The club has revealed the findings of a major new economic
(22:16):
study on plans for a community stadium at Aberdeen beach.
The independent report by BiggerEconomics show the project could
deliver at least £1.6 billion for the local economy over the
next 50 years, doubling the club's current contribution.
The new stadium would add £32,000,000 a year and create a
or safeguard more than 1100 jobs, while construction alone
(22:37):
would bring a further 42,000,000LB boost and support.
Over 600 jobs. Could also attract 110,000 extra
visitors every year, host major sporting events including rugby,
internationals and women's football finals and launch a new
youth football festival worth upto £9 million annually.
Chairman Dave Cormack said the plans represent a huge
opportunity for Aberdeen, urgingcity leaders to back what he
(22:58):
called an utterly compelling case for long term investment.
And finally, it's full steam ahead for the Scottish Cap
Trophy tour and next stop, it's heading north.
Building on the success of the Aberdeen City Lake, where more
than 20,000 fans have already posed with the famous
silverware, the historic Scottish Cap is now bound for
Shetland and Orkney as part of the Highlands and Islands Lake,
(23:18):

This Wednesday, the trophy will dock in Shetland, taking pride
of place at the Clicking and Leisure Complex in Lerwick from
10:00 AM to 4:00 PM where supporters can come along and

term relationships with schools,grassroots clubs and of course
the passionate Dawn supporters who proudly back the team from
afar. Once the Highlands and Islands
leg is complete, the Scottish cap will make its way back to
Aberdeenshire and beyond, including more stops around the
city not covered in the first phase of the tour.
(24:05):
Maybe I have. Got a dark side.
I'm here to win. I don't know what.
Beasts lie within me. I'm going to fight.
Till the death. Players, welcome to the
Highlands. Oh my goodness, there it is.
Now I know out in the real worldyou're very important and
successful, but here there is nospecial treatment.

traitors. I want to win.
I'm not going to lie, I want to win.
Oh God, this. Is life our death, isn't it?
Faith Me too. Go forth and murder.
That's quite a twist. I have selected my traitors.

The opening 45 minutes saw both sides trade chances with Prower
and Kilmarnock keeper Holly Kerrigan kept busy but
untroubled. Eva Thompson and Holly Daniel
were at the heart of Aberdeen's best moves, while Kilmarnock's
Abbey Robinson went closest before the break, forcing Prower
into a fine save. Half time goalless at the
Bomodel but that was all about to change.

Scott Booth made three attackingsubstitutions at the restart and
they paid off within minutes. Kelly Beatty combined with Amy
Black the substitute slotting home from close range to give
the Dons the lead. Kilmarnock hit back quickly,
Kelsey Craney looping an equaliser over Pror after a
defensive mix up, but the Dons weren't to be denied.

advantage and the victory was sealed in the closing stages,
