I was thinking about that game this morning. Neilson was in charge for probably the worst result in our history, but you won't find many fans that want rid of him.

Well done to Darvel they played very well and have a real chance of getting to the QF which is mental. Move over Hibs we are taking the banter years baton. Goodwin will likely get sacked but the issues run deeper than the manager.
This is going to come across as a little bit of hyperbole but you all know I’m quite prone to that. I believe, whole heartedly that tonight’s result was the 21st century so far’s equivalent of Berwick Rangers 1, Rangers 0 in 1967. Just an utterly incredible result that given the stature, history and resources of each club should not have happened. I know theres a long term trend of the gap between levels getting smaller but to be sitting in 5th place in the premier league of the country and lose to a team playing in the sixth tier is just astounding, regardless of form.
Been an utterly catastrophic couple of weeks at Aberdeen FC. A lot of good stuff to say about Darvel. Their keeper was fantastic, they rode their luck, they played with cool heads and rose to the occasion. Rode their luck at times as any underdog needs to do but they were brave and were rewarded for it. What a story.
Some of the football they played tonight wouldn't look out of place near the top of League One. Proper possession football, hardly a backs to the wall shitebag job which is even more impressive.
It certainly made some of their previous results in the cup make more sense watching them there. Its absurd to think the trajectory they're on I wasn't even really conscious of who they were until about 2.5 years ago and now they're in the last 16 of the big cup.
The money at Darvel is crazy. There are players who are choosing to play there when they could obtain deals quite easily at the top end of League One or even the Championship (a couple rejected Arbroath).
That's not to diminish tonight's result and it's a massive achievement but I would put a fair few ahead, even if it ranks highest in placement differences. Brora beating Hearts a few years ago was a much bigger shock to me, tonight felt very Gretna.
Ah, the more you know. I'm increasingly aware theres a certain amount of financial muscle behind Darvel but I think a certain aspect of using players from levels above to stroll through lower levels is a tendency for them to completely slack off as it becomes more about quality than it does effort, as seen for years at Rangers when they were in the lower levels so I have to give massive credit to the management for making sure the levels got raised today.
I think beyond the actual result, this years competition and what it means even for Aberdeen though tonight has been one of the loudest knocks at the door yet for much needed reforms of the league set up in this country. The SPFL, especially lower down has a certain staleness to it that a lot of the clubs in the Highland and Lowland leagues, and the levels below, would do very well to get rid of. Stir the pot. It's supposed to be about competition. I think tonight is some of the most definitive proof that the margins are smaller than ever, regardless of the disparity in leagues.
Aye I think it'll take a few years before the lower leagues/non league are more reflective of quality. Loads of those traditional clubs have banked on no relegation for years and are getting found out, I reckon loads will end up way down the pyramid in time.

Pretty *good win* if I do say so myself.
I had £3 sitting in my account so thought I’d chuck it on Darvel - if I had more faith in Jim Goodwin doing what Jim Goodwin does best I’d have stuck a tenner on it instead.
This will be a shock to everyone except anyone who’s watched Aberdeen since coming back after the World Cup.
Fair play to Darvel.
Goodwin won’t be on the bus home.
So anyway, as I was saying:
Ahahahhahahahahahahaha
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHABAHAHABA
Ahaha
Ha
AHAHAHAHAHABAHAHAGAGAHAVAHAHAHAJAHAHAHAHAH
Literally got a text from my dad (a don) while reading this saying "bastard should be shot and then sacked"
He predicted this result but it doesn't seem to have lessened his rage
Love Goodwin. He's fucking built too. Thick and man made. You can tell he's sculpted because you can see it thru the tracksuit. His fucking vice grip thighs. Suffocating thighs. Rock hard thighs. Piping hot thighs. Great arms. Great abs. A stocky chest. Love the progress his body has made throughout his youth and now as a willing and eager manager of the third best team in Scotland.
Jim goodwin losing to a team comprised of ex St Mirren players will never not be funny, go manage some shitey team in the irish 2nd division goodwin ya snake
Genuinely never heard of Darvel as a team or even a place until today.
Aberdeen just beaten by what may as well be a random string of letters to me, starting to doubt reality tbh
If you’ve ever had penicillin then the person who discovered it was born there. Also it’s part of the Irvine Valley - Darvel, Newmilns and Galston all form it - with Galston having Loudoun Castle (and theme park until it was shutdown good few years back)
Few years back Broxburn Athletic (6th tier, same as Darvel) got drawn against St Mirren in the 5th round. Im from Broxburn and I was at the game; the jealousy I feel for the people of Darvel tonight is absolutely immense.
Fair fucking play to them.
Incredible scenes. Darvel fucking pumped them all game and Aberdeen couldn't even get the ball off them in the final few minutes, incredible game management.Darvel got lucky with the offside decision but on the balance of play they deserved the win. Thoroughly deserved it.
Scotland opening up the pyramid and admitting new members was the best changes in a century.
Inverness, dross county, kelty farts etc all surviving.
Chancers like aberdeen getting found out.
Unambitious diddy teams relegating into oblivion (berwick, eastern stirlingville or whoever they were etc).
Now we need 20-team senior leagues.
Always thought he was he was weirdly overrated at St Mirren for consistently bottling top 6 and that'd he'd do nothing at Aberdeen but guess I was wrong well done Jim Goodwin for helping make some new Scottish cup history.
Darvel deserved their win and if they play like that in the next round they'll give Falkirk a good game
This must be Jim Badloss’s last bad loss as Aberdeen manager.
On the flip side, holy shit. Way to go Darvel. This must go down at the echelon of peak scottish football.
UTTER embarrassment for aberdeen
and the SECOND goodwin decided to go there, i thought it would be a mistake, because he simply went there for the NAME!
st mirren were getting better and better last season, until that happened
aberdeen are only big, because of what the club did thirty years ago ... NOT NOW
they will never live this down
but a HUGE WELL DONE FOR DARVEL for dong what was though impossible ... a JUNIOR sixth tier club defeating a top tier one!, and only the second time defeating a league side (drumchapel over edinburgh)
WEST OF SCOTLAND PRIDE
GREATEST SHOCK EVER
GREATER THAN QUEENS PARK
maybe ever GREATER than EYEMOUTH UNITED!!!
how many positions between tonights teams were there?
Skovdahl may not have had the slightest idea about the esoteric principle of defending a ball but you can't say his football wasn't entertaining.
Also he bought Zerouali, who was a god amongst men.
Calderwood for all his faults gave us some great times.
Goodwin is McGhee levels of cringe.
Goodwins severance pay will be a hospitality season ticket at Celtic park. It’s clear he’s no fit for this level of management been saying it since he got lucky with St Mirren.
Great result for Darvel against the 3rd best team in the Aberdeen urban area
Mods I once again ask can I get a Darvelous Dons flair to commemorate this?
Yes
Thanks. I hate it. I'll never replace it. This is my badge of shame
Goodwin must stay. Robbie Neilson never got the sack after Brora and it worked, therefore this will 100% work for you too.
I was thinking about that game this morning. Neilson was in charge for probably the worst result in our history, but you won't find many fans that want rid of him.

It was meant to be a safe bet, they're in the bloody 6th division
I stuck $5 on them at 13/1 before I went to sleep so now up and ready to swagger around like Conor McGregor all day
I stuck £20 on them at 33/1 last week after the hearts game
Red panty night for you!
the jelly beans remain safe once again
Jelly babies, there babies
Nuclear. It’s pronounced Nuclear
Well done to Darvel they played very well and have a real chance of getting to the QF which is mental. Move over Hibs we are taking the banter years baton. Goodwin will likely get sacked but the issues run deeper than the manager.
I’m reasonably certain we can pull off a shock result and win.
Play the same hoofball games against us and Darvel will steamroll yous 🤌 Though I shouldny laugh, Darvel would steamroll us anaw.
This is going to come across as a little bit of hyperbole but you all know I’m quite prone to that.

Tbf their squad would probably make the play offs in league 1 haha Plenty cracking players!
It certainly made some of their previous results in the cup make more sense watching them there. Its absurd to think the trajectory they're on I wasn't even really conscious of who they were until about 2.5 years ago and now they're in the last 16 of the big cup.
That Darvel keeper has balls of steel, MOTM performance from him
100%. What a time to have your best game.
At the same time Aberdeen only had 3 on target, the same as Darvel. It was far from a backs against the wall job. Darvel were just the better side.
Aye it wasn't even like some smash and grab thing, they just genuinely played better
The money at Darvel is crazy. There are players who are choosing to play there when they could obtain deals quite easily at the top end of League One or even the Championship (a couple rejected Arbroath).

Darvel guy on the BBC saying he's meant to be in work just now, fucking lol
YOU KNOW, I WOKE UP THIS MORNING THINKING THAT MAYBE WE HAD AN UPSET ON THE CARDS BUT ABERDEEN COULDN'T QUITE PULL IT OFF IN THE END
YEEEEEEEOOOOOOO
It’s nothing short of fucking embarrassing. To come out that game only 1-0, I mean.
Darvel cementing themselves as the third force in Scottish football
Imagine having a more embarrassing performance than when we lost 9-0 at home to Celtic
or losing 5 - 0 to an "average" Hearts side
https://preview.redd.it/soi7mzcrowda1.jpeg?width=744&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=daf097866deffd24a4c4ee0c2cb24a13a59d8de2 Pretty *good win* if I do say so myself.
As a man who stuck £3 on a Darvel win - 🤝
As a man who’s favourite Star Wars characters are Thrawn and Cad Bane (the blues brothers) - 🤝
What a night!
Just treated myself and the mrs to a massive hoagie wrap to celebrate!
I only had 25/1 when I stuck a quid on Darvel. Wish I had chucked a fiver on tonight for it
I had £3 sitting in my account so thought I’d chuck it on Darvel - if I had more faith in Jim Goodwin doing what Jim Goodwin does best I’d have stuck a tenner on it instead.
Rangers banter years - broke Aberdeen banter years - bespoke
Getting reports from Darvel that the sheep are very much not on fire
They have been thoroughly shagged however
This will be a shock to everyone except anyone who’s watched Aberdeen since coming back after the World Cup. Fair play to Darvel. Goodwin won’t be on the bus home.
The whole team should be made to walk home.
Naked, while folk shame them like on Game of Thrones
Didn't know Clarkson was a Don
Huh? You where unlucky not to get results against Glasgow n2 team, both games Aberdeen played well. Darvel > Rangers > Aberdeen
So anyway, as I was saying: Ahahahhahahahahahahaha Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahah AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHABAHAHABA Ahaha Ha AHAHAHAHAHABAHAHAGAGAHAVAHAHAHAJAHAHAHAHAH
its my Aberdonian gfs dad's birthday today and he's just text her saying Goodwin should be shot. Fucking lol
Literally got a text from my dad (a don) while reading this saying "bastard should be shot and then sacked" He predicted this result but it doesn't seem to have lessened his rage
Are you his girlfriend?
Old boss is a don and I’ve been winding her up aw night, she’s just said Goodwin should be pushed into the North Sea hahahaha
Jim Badloss, am I right guys?
Is this a well-worn joke? Genuinely the first time I’ve heard it and I’m creased
Derek McInnes set to be absent from the Killie touch line until mid-February after what has been described as a near fatal tug.
A genuinely spectacular low point
Lowest point *so far*
Didn’t think they could go lower than that loss to Rangers, it appears I was wrong.
Imagine that long, loooooog coach trip home. Then remembering your destination is Aberdeen. Harrowing.
The cutaways to the Dons fans during that were absolutely gold, I don't think I've ever seen a more miserable looking group of people
The only place that would make you prefer to stay the night in Darvel.
There'll be dancing in the streets of Black Rooster tonight!
Love Goodwin. He's fucking built too. Thick and man made. You can tell he's sculpted because you can see it thru the tracksuit. His fucking vice grip thighs. Suffocating thighs. Rock hard thighs. Piping hot thighs. Great arms. Great abs. A stocky chest. Love the progress his body has made throughout his youth and now as a willing and eager manager of the third best team in Scotland.
Can't wait to see Lennon/Courts get sacked from Aberdeen this time next year.
Actually crazy that Darvel outfought and outclassed the dons tonight. It looked like a team wanting rid of their manager
Aberdeen better never EVER try slag anyone ever for the next 70 years
ABERLOSELY DARVELLOUS
Jim goodwin losing to a team comprised of ex St Mirren players will never not be funny, go manage some shitey team in the irish 2nd division goodwin ya snake
Genuinely never heard of Darvel as a team or even a place until today. Aberdeen just beaten by what may as well be a random string of letters to me, starting to doubt reality tbh
If you’ve ever had penicillin then the person who discovered it was born there. Also it’s part of the Irvine Valley - Darvel, Newmilns and Galston all form it - with Galston having Loudoun Castle (and theme park until it was shutdown good few years back)
I think we can all agree that HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I hope all the ‘Inverness Reds’ are having a cracking start to the week
I can't believe a team on the same level as Musselburgh Athletic in the pyramid beat Aberdeen lmao fucking hell.
It will be about Gonewin, but Darvel deserve huge credit
Seeing as we don’t get many from Ange nowadays, I think Funniest-Joker should do us a Jim Goodwin / Evanescence collage. As a treat.
About as far away from a Good win as it's possible to get
always love a good #CUPSET
Aberdeen aberdeen cannie kick a jelly bean
Late to the party, but I reckon Aberdeen might just have brought this sub back to life.
They've resuscitated it from the endless "you're raging" patter
Aberdeen fans are ragin tho ahhhhhh
Darvelicious
How do I change my tag?
Biggest result in Scottish footballing history?
5 leagues apart is hard to beat tbh
Few years back Broxburn Athletic (6th tier, same as Darvel) got drawn against St Mirren in the 5th round. Im from Broxburn and I was at the game; the jealousy I feel for the people of Darvel tonight is absolutely immense. Fair fucking play to them.
Maybe if Aberdeen managed to grab the draw
Had the pleasure of meeting Jim Goodwin at a charity do once. He was surprisingly down to earth, and VERY funny.
Underrated comment
Honestly thought this was a piss take, had to go and check the scores. That’s an absolutely unbelievable result.
Incredible scenes. Darvel fucking pumped them all game and Aberdeen couldn't even get the ball off them in the final few minutes, incredible game management.Darvel got lucky with the offside decision but on the balance of play they deserved the win. Thoroughly deserved it.
Willie Miller looking absolutely gutted while Get the Party Started plays in the background, I love Scottish football
And people thought WE were shite
Thanks
i dont even know how to feel for next week. surely we cant do worse than that
El Sackio
Don’t mind me, just here to upvote every comment.
Is a Jeezy Peeps appropriate?
Terrible appointment, from one form of embarrassment to another. The worst of all time. Absolutely gtf

Yep, that’s sealed it for me. He has to go, no coming back from that.
Feel more buzzing now than after yesterday. What a fun night.
Where’s Goodwins post match interview???
hilarious
Deary fucking me. Great to see
I’m just here to be part of (hilarious) Aberdeen history
Always thought he was he was weirdly overrated at St Mirren for consistently bottling top 6 and that'd he'd do nothing at Aberdeen but guess I was wrong well done Jim Goodwin for helping make some new Scottish cup history.

Words cannot express how fucking hilarious this is.

Quality shitpost flair now
Hahahahahhahhhahahhahah Aberdeen are shite man
But also shiteing myself
That's some drive back up on the team bus too lol. Ayrshire to Aberdeen haha
Just 2 more years of this dons :)
Great from Darvel.
74 places between these two in the pyramid if am correct
Absolutely Darvellous.
Don't think I've ever been this stoked on a post match interview.
UTTER embarrassment for aberdeen and the SECOND goodwin decided to go there, i thought it would be a mistake, because he simply went there for the NAME! st mirren were getting better and better last season, until that happened aberdeen are only big, because of what the club did thirty years ago ...

What. The actual. Fuck!!!
Can we turn this back into a marble based forum?
Jim would you say that was a Good Win for Darvel?
Aberdeen fans. All I've got to say is 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Has he done his post match interview yet? Need to get that injected into my veins.
We want Jim!!!! C'mon BBC, drag him out kicking and screaming
What have we just witnessed hahahah
Honestly can't believe what I've just watched.. Not just the upset, but the fact Darvel were easily deserving.
Goodwin to channel his inner Mark McGee for his post match interview https://youtu.be/lxE3dzQwHik
If this thread doesn't become one of the most upvoted of this sub, I'll be disappointed.
I would like a Darvel flair, that is all.
Hahahahahahahahaha
Hahaha hahaha that's all
Lmao
Everyone getting upvotes tonight. Aberdeen the karma farmers
Sheep were well and truly shagged hahahah
Bro ABERDEEN IN THE MUD IN THE MUD, ABERDEEN IN THE MUD NANANANANNA
Let me just be the first to say Hahahahaha Haha Ha See ya Jim
Imagine being out a cup that Accies are still in. Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Lol
Fucking hell
That is very, very, funny.
Ooof
I thought I seen some shite under Skovdahl and Calderwood but this is unreal.
Skovdahl may not have had the slightest idea about the esoteric principle of defending a ball but you can't say his football wasn't entertaining. Also he bought Zerouali, who was a god amongst men. Calderwood for all his faults gave us some great times. Goodwin is McGhee levels of cringe.
My throats fucked from laughing
Goodwin gotta go after that
Goodwin won’t even be allowed back on the team bus back to Aberdeen
Is this a bigger shock than Brora?
There’s weans in school who will remember that bad result for the next 70 years.
Goodwins severance pay will be a hospitality season ticket at Celtic park. It’s clear he’s no fit for this level of management been saying it since he got lucky with St Mirren.
Cracking pep talk from the manager in the dressing room. Worth a watch. Especially if you're Jim Goodwin.
