You compete to win. Two trophies would mean a lot more than finishing third three time on the trot. Aberdeen were best of the rest for about five years, where’s that got them and what do they have to show for it?
I disagree. If we had won two trophies this season then finished 7th and 9th in the next two seasons folk on here wouldn't be contenting themselves with having been trophy winners a couple of seasons ago. They would be spitting feathers because we're crap. In the same way winning the Scottish in 2016 doesn't comfort folk now when we're getting cuffed off Ross County.

This season has been a disaster for Aberdeen and they finished 4th. 4th is a bad season for them. That and they consistently outbid us for our top targets and you're asking where being consistently third has gotten them?

If we're ever in a position where we're constantly third it stands us in better stead for the competitions you care about. It means we're a good team every season. I'd rather hibs be that than a one season wonder in a domestic cup.
