Here We Go! - The Aberdeen FC Podcast

Another season, another new dawn down Pittodrie way. The Summer movements and the early season action under discussion as we get back into the swing.

Martin is joined by Dons hero Neil Simpson and journalist Neil Drysdale to discuss Simmy's new autobiography

Well thank Christ that's finished for a couple of months at least. A look back on the last week of fixtures and a brief pause to say good riddance to the rest of this dismal campaign.

The Dons inch closer towards survival after a Friday night draw on West Lothian.

On getting the job done against Killie, and points before performances.

Three points, and everything's looking a bit brighter if not exactly sunny yet down Pittodrie way.

Where now, after a dispiriting afternoon in Paisley? (Discounting the fact that every afternoon spent in Paisley is dispiriting.)

Reflecting on that sinking feeling that pervaded not just the performance at Ibrox but the other results coming through on Saturday. Also, how best to tackle the next two weeks as a Dons fan.

Attempting to accentuate the positives as the Dons are denied at the death by Falkirk.

On Aberdeen's soon to be announced new manager, and the process that brought us to this point.

On Aberdeen's complete bodying in Dunfermline which abruptly ended the defence of the Scottish Cup.

A busy spell, and yet not much happening for AFC right now. Looking back at failures to trouble the opposing keepers of Dundee Utd and Hearts and ahead to a potential path to redemption that goes through Fife on Saturday night.

Some positivity to cling to as Aberdeen dispatch Motherwell and move into the last eight of the Scottish Cup.

On the cusp of a new managerial appointment, but not seemingly on the cusp of him actually taking charge. That, and the double header with Motherwell occupy our thoughts this week.

On a none-more-bleak outing in Ayrshire on Saturday, the last knockings of the transfer window, and approaching a pivotal week with not much hope in the bank.

A fun, entertaining goal-strewn and utterly chaotic ninety minutes at Pittodrie to dwell on this week. Plus some typically half-baked opinions on the latest squad ins and outs.

On this week's unmissable instalment, discussion on a laboured cup win, a polarising new signing and your questions answered. They're all unmissable.

Quite. bleak week that one, and I'm absolutely certain that you'll want to hear us relive it.

Another one bites the dust as Jimmy Thelin leaves Pittodrie for a final time following an increasing untenable run of performances.

After our Prague travelogue/medical update there's a pair of comprehensive defeats, and a stubborn reluctance to adapt to discuss this week.

Two Pittodrie encounters this week: as a brave effort against Strasbourg and the proverbial game of two halves versus Kilmarnock are reviewed.

Goals, attacking, poor defending. So much more to get our teeth into this week, and many more reasons to feel optimistic about the side after an imperfect, but positive week.

A pair of low-action encounters under the microscope this week as this Dons side continues to underwhelm.

Looking back on a very satisfying Pittodrie afternoon as Hearts were downed. Again.

If you're not going to win then don't get beat can be a dressing room mantra. Two draws this week; the two of them greeted rather differently at HWG Towers.

Looking back on a win in Ayrshire which feels like a long time ago, but was only on Wednesday, discussing a long-awaited debut for one of our own, and looking ahead to a trip to Cyprus.   Joining us this week is Ryan Crombie from a Red Point of View blog to talk about his upcoming book - Red Redemption.

A bleak week gets reviewed with the anger and frustration it deserved.

Trying to heed Kipling's advice in the wake of a week that saw some stirrings against Shakthar and a demolition of Dundee. With guest John Callan.

Lots to talk about, not much of it good right now. Discussion on two different, but equally galling defeats in Dundee and Motherwell, before looking ahead to a difficult European opener, and a possibly pivotal league game this Sunday.

Saturday's lifeless cup exit under the microscope before attention turns to a difficult week ahead under stormy skies.

After one of the more forgettable Pittodrie afternoons continued a worrying start to the season, our contribution to the 'where's it going wrong' debate.

Interrupting your International breaks to relive a more-exciting-than-most transfer deadline day, and then answering your questions on where the club is now.

On a difficult and fractious week that saw two defeats, two red cards, former heroes become villains, and further reshaping of Jimmy Thelin's squad.

On a vibrant Pittodrie European evening against FCSB that left us with a strange mixture of pride at rescuing things, but frustration that an opportunity had been squandered.

Saturday's stroll in the Greenock sun discussed, before mounting excitement at our return to the European stage kicks in.

On this week's episode, trying to put a gloss on a flat defeat to Celtic, the Yengi question, and avoiding a Greenock banana skin.

On opening day blues, the departure of a crucial component of the Cup success, and a (relatively) kind Europa League draw.

The phoney war of pre-season friendlies is nearly at an end, and battle resumes for the Dons on Monday in Edinburgh.

Raw and unedited footage from Saturday at Hampden.

A tired and emotional recap of the most glorious of weekends as Aberdeen lifted the Scottish Cup.

Cup Final preview pod with very special guests JJ Bull and Jonathan Northcroft. Also bonus tactics section with Gavin MacPhee of AFC1903.com

Events on and, erm, on the pitch at Tannadice under the microscope as Aberdeen finish their league campaign with a whimper.

Reflections on another messy outing for this Aberdeen side.

On a woeful Ibrox outing and trying to find some believe from somewhere for the next fortnight.

On a frustratingly limp performance in Paisley, and a worrying tale of lessons not being learnt. Plus, the Red Army shift 20,000 tickets in a day and mobilise for Hampden.

Another key win in a tight match. We discuss an unusually solid Dons backline and the magic of Kevin in this week's show.

Aching limbs, shot voices, cup finalists. A torturous afternoon at Hampden with the happiest of endings relived.

Oh life... Lots of barely dissipated anger, lots of swearing - your archetypical Scottish football podcast really.

On a surprisingly dominant Pittodrie victory punctuated by some marvellous goals. More of this please.
