A hastily thrown together, sleepy, *almost* live reaction from @tchocky83 and @TheRogue87 to the breaking news from Pittodrie this morning that Jim Goodwin is the 24th (or 25th if you count Paul Hegarty) permanent manager of the mighty Aberdeen Football Club.

Ally Begg returns to the ABZFP and he joins Gary (@tchocky83), Graham & Gavin (@TheRogue87) to pore over the season-shattering Scottish Cup exit at the hands of Motherwell on Saturday and the subsequent dismissal of Stephen Glass from the manager's hot seat after just 40 games in charge of the Dons. We take some time to assess where it all went wrong for the man from Fintry and where the Club goes from here.
We review the @AberdeenWomen and their Scottish Cup win over Spartans; we take our usual look at the Young Team and our loanees in Loan Watch before we preview this week's SPFL Premiership double-header against St. Johnstone & Motherwell.

Thom Watt makes his return to the ABZFP line-up as we finish off our mid-season review with our thoughts on the performance to date of the manager, Stephen Glass.

It's a quarter of a century for the ABZFP and we are joined this week by Noel Blaha as we bring you Part 2 of our Mid-Season Review where we take a collective look at the squad as a whole and we examine the areas that need addressing in the January transfer window. Noel also gives us some insight into his family's recent pilgrimage back to the North East of Scotland.
We take our usual look at the Women's team ahead of their return to action and our loanees in Loan Watch.
We round off this week's episode with the next installment in our line of exclusive, in-depth interviews and this week it is a man who signed for the Dons in the summer of 2013, becoming a lynchpin of the side that won the League Cup in 2014 - it's Willo Flood!
