  1. Looks a good signing on paper, happy with this. Definitely an area we need cover in.
  2. Aye and an Arab mate at work. Probably/hopefully horseshit.
  3. Fat mess should be nowhere near the top flight, would be a terrible signing.
  4. Rumours of Dundee Utd sniffing around.
  5. The facts and the figures are indeed clear. There is a minimum of 1.5 trillion pound worth of oil still to be extracted from the North Sea. Still to hear one good reason why we should let Westminster squander this as they have done with the revenues from the last 40 years. As Larry Elliot the Guardian’s economics editor (a publication that is no friend to the Yes Campaign) wrote: “An entire era [of North Sea oil] can be summed up in three words: discovered, extracted, squandered”.
  6. Yes, the North Sea O&G industry I'd really dying on it's arse. http://www.shetlandtimes.co.uk/2013/11/15/major-north-sea-oil-investment-approved/ What a terrible affliction for Scotland.

  8. Hopefully a quick recovery, the last thing we need at the moment is a smaller squad to choose from. Also probably means a deserved dropping for Goody is not on the cards.
  9. Sammy was the best keeper we've had fit years and a vital cog. Perhaps as some have said Danny underestimates the importance of a top class GK, which Sammy is imo. Still, even with Buffon in goal we would have got beat yesterday and in Inverness.
  10. Hardly a rant was it? Pretty thoughtful analysis imo. Numbers yes, quality not so sure. We stayed up before playing John Potter for a whole season FFS.
  11. Div, are you sure it was Danny who wouldn't sanction a higher wage for Sammy and not the BoD? Good post from the OP. I'm definitely more clapper than wetter, I wasn't sure getting rid of Gus was the right thing to do at the time, so possibly I am too conservative. Still think some of the verbals dished out yesterday were beyond the pale.
  12. The critics used to say I wouldn't make it. They're not laughing now. Thought that was pretty good.
  13. How does Danny's win percentage compare to Gus? I'm normally a back em rather then sack em kinda guy, but think the tipping point may have been reached with the last two away games against teams of similar stature. I'm not sure a new gaffer would provide a miracle solution to our problems but at least it would remove the air of negativity starting to envelop our club. I understand punters have a right to voice their complaints, but I believe this should be saved for HT/FT, getting on the players backs and abusing Danny for 90 mins as some where doing yesterday doesn't help anyone. Can't help but think shades of '88.
  14. He didn't tell him to shut up, he said 'thanks for that'. Guy was an arse, looked like he couldn't wait to have a go at the team. Also kept shouting ' play the ball on the grund', no matter if we were playing it on the ground or not.
  15. despite the shambolic performance some of the abuse dished out to Danny and the players today was OTT in my book. Thommo even shouted back at the old Jakey next to me in the first half.
  16. Horrific display. Can't remember such a negative start to the season. Like others have said Danny looked a beaten man today. Where do we go from here? The comparisons between him and Butcher&Adams have been telling.
  17. Whytle? Poor form. One of them is top as well. Expulsion?
  18. Don't agree with all if this, but most of it is accurate. Definitely seemed to be a distinct lack of fight and that was the most worrying aspect for me. It's a cliche, but has he 'lost the dressing room'? Still think Danny has earned some leeway till the end of September at least despite all this.
  19. Is it not £21 that must be similar to what we're charging this season. Remember we are the League Cup holders, it might be a band 'A' game!
