Aberdeen Football Club
|
Aberdeen haven't won a trophy for about 15 years, yet their fans will probably claim themselves as Scotland's third force. They regularly play in a half-empty stadium and haven't won at Ibrox for almost two decades.
What To Expect
- Expect the Aberdeen team to try an extra 10% each and every time Rangers come to town. Aberdeen can achieve a win against Rangers one week and lose to a Scottish first division club the next. They have a group of supporters that celebrate the Ibrox Disaster and seem to think we hate them when in actual fact, we pity their pathetic club.
- To be escorted into and out the stadium, be careful if the result is not out way as the sheep will line the streets to watch our buses go past. Remember the sheep don't mind losing all of there games if it means one victory against us.
- Very hard to get a ticket outside stadium, don't try it.
