The Dons finished last season very strongly under Robson, but they haven't started so well this season, though one of their games was against Celtic. Sunday's game comes after a trip to Europe for them, so I think we have a decent chance of getting at least a draw. But we must play for 90 minutes, and not let them into the game in the second half as we did against Hibs and Motherwell.
COYS!!
 
 

Our pressing off the ball yesterday was best we’ve been all season - never gave Well players any time on the ball. There were a few slack passes from us and we did drop off a bit in the second half however we won almost every 50/50 and second ball. Richard Taylor and Gogic were solid at the back and Hemming is getting better every week. We’ve not had a keeper willing to come off his line and take a cross ball for a long time and that save second half was top drawer.
You can see that the players are all fighting for each other and we now have competition for places which can only be good. Robbo is doing a fantastic job and bring on the draw today for the last 8. 

I thought we played some of our best attacking football today for quite some time - and not just for the first half only.
The players and the management team are doing an excellent job.
Individual players are improving steadily and combining as a team.

I don’t see the benefit in expanding the ground capacity beyond putting in a standing zone between the family stand and the West Bank. 
That’s the only area of the ground that could realistically be developed at a reasonable cost. Fcuk putting in executive boxes there. 
We had an opportunity to fill our home ends today and there were stacks of empty seats despite a good price for tickets. 
Considering the run of form we are in at home it was really disappointing the poor turnout from our fans. 
At least those who went enjoyed themselves!

Great performance today. Everybody played their part at some point.
Richard Taylor is some player. He was excellent alongside Gogic, who strolled the game too.
Hemming with a very assured performance also. Trevor who?
McMenamin is a great signing too.
They didn't really lay a glove on us.
Should have been a bigger winning margin.
I seem to remember someone telling us Richard Taylor was shite.😄

Meanwhile, back on topic.
Against Motherwell, we will need to compete to our full potential for the whole game - not just the first half, if we want to progress further.
Kettlewell was at our game on Saturday and will have us sussed out - watch this space.
However, if we perfrom for the full 90 minutes (ie. keep on the front foot), we should get through. Our defence isn't solid enough to sit back and soak up the pressure for the whole of the second half.

According to the BBC, Eammon Brophy won the penalty for us!

I honestly thought we'd contrived to blow yet another two goal lead. Well we did, but the team rallied to win the game. Well done lads.

7 minutes for a few Hibs goals.

THAT was a great goal, what a cross, great header.
That'll shut a few people up.

Jamieson looks decent, not afraid to run at people and can pick a pass

We should be thinking of bringing him into the middle a bit more, he would cause panic making those driving runs into the centre

Strain should be nowhere near our team , he is too good 😁
