A Greek tragedy, a Pittodrie setback, and youth brilliance – it’s been a week of highs and lows for the Dons.
On this week’s AFC DONScast, Graeme rounds up a tough week in Europe as Aberdeen suffer a 6–0 defeat to AEK Athens before returning home for a frustrating 2–1 loss against Hibs. We hear from manager Jimmy Thelin and captain Graeme Shinnie before and after both matches.
There’s better news elsewhere – the Development Squad edge Huntly in a five-goal Aberdeenshire Shield thriller, and the Young Dons run riot in a 12–1 Scottish Youth Cup win over Dunbar United.
Plus, we cover Peter Davidson’s appointment as AFC Community Trust CEO, international call-ups for Aberdeen Women’s stars, and a full round-up from the Scottish Cup Second Round and league action across the weekend.
All that and a look ahead to our midweek trip to Kilmarnock and next month’s Conference League tie away to AEK Larnaca.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
