2019: By drawing 2-2 with Cove Rangers at Balgownie, Aberdeen put themselves in an unassailable Championship winning position. Only outlandish arithmetic in their remainig games could allow Dunfermline to close the goal difference gap.

1980: Doug Rougvie decides to sign the four year contract he has been offered. Little does he, or anyone else, know how worthwhile this will turn out to be.

1981: On the eve of the return UEFA Cup match at Pittodrie, Ipswich Towm manager Bobby Robson says: "Aberdeen can't play any better than they did in the first leg."

1990: St. Johnstone run up an unlikely but humiliating five goals at McDiarmid Park with no reply from the Dons.

1929: it was announced in the press that the referee C. Bilney, Glasgow, who had handled the recent match at Pittodrie between the Dons and Rangers, had been "deleted" from the SFA list of referees.
This followed a complaint by the club following controversial decisions during the match, played on 7th September, which ended in a 1-1 draw.

1945: "Misers' Hill" I wish to make a plea to the responsible authority, which may be our Links and Parks Department, for the restoration of the amenities on "Misers' Hill," from which such a fine view of a wide area is had. I am not interested in football, so I'm not concerned about the free grandstand which the hill provides for matches played in Pittodrie Park! Since the hill happily ceased to be used as a gun-site and became open to the public again it has been a lamentable mess of iron girders, patches of concrete, coils of barbed wire, rusted corrugated iron and fragments of glass - all of them dangerous to children playing there. It must be someone's job to clear away the debris. As one of the elderly folk who like to enjoy the air on the hill, I much miss the seats which used to flank each side of the shelter so that one could always sit in its lythe. Of the wooden seats only one, facing King Street, remains. One of the seaward seats is a rickle of old iron and the other is most dilapidated. The shelter itself is bricked up and can't be used by the public. For the sake of the young and old the place should be redd up and made comfortable.
