Funny how the quotation marks are around the “quite realistic about the situation” and not around the “short of a million” Nothing to see here.

Just called it quits buying a Blackpool Kit for my kids Birthday start of August instead of St Mirren one. I’m pure raging for you Ronnie. I’m no even sure how your child is going to cope with this. We could be talking permanent damage. You ok? Do you think you’ll be able to deal with the hardship??? Honest tae f**king f**k!!

Ok I’m going to resign from this thread as I can’t imagine there’s much more to discuss now about the Stenny game. Can this now become the Baz v BiEK arguing thread and us normal weirdos can just avoid it. 👍

Aye it doesnae.

Agreed. I’ve made my point so that’s me out. …..and I won. 😃

By definition they have to read it to find out that it’s your squabbling pish in the first place. I for one, don’t want to put you or BiEK on ignore. I want to read your relevant, on topic posts. I just don’t want your pish cluttering up threads. It’s completely immaterial whether there would have been any other posts or not. Only a complete narcissist would think anyone else would find your argumentative bollocks a refreshing read on an otherwise quiet thread and only a complete arsehole would refuse to take it elsewhere.

Ok in that case, because you like the argument side of BAWA, when you and BiEK start an argument that is nothing to do with the thread topic, could you take it to PM or start another thread in General Nonsense entitled Baz v BiEK Squabbles, so the rest of us can avoid it and not have it ruin threads? Is that too much to ask?

Thank you Shull for posting something relevant to this thread. You are forever the voice of reason in a world devoid of such.

I do want to keep the thread alive. It’s a match thread about a specific game. My attempt was to get the thread back on track by banging your two heids together 😃

Or one of you, or preferably both of you, could for once in your lives be poised to type, sit back, take a deep breath and think “Do you know what, it just really isn’t worth the time and effort”.

Oh no. Completely agree at this time. I was more talking about the potential/latent support for a relatively successful team. Even that though, would absolutely have its limits

What you say is of course true, but there’s a slight wrinkle to it. There have been a handful of games (the homes games against Livingston and Morton in the last Championship winning season immediately come to mind) where we “potentially” could have had capacity crowds if either the away ends had been filled (like DUFC did) or the make up of the stadium allowed for the away end to be carved up. Not saying they would definitely have been capacity. Just saying there have probably been a few games where there has been a capacity crowd in the 3 stands available to the home support.

Another thread descends into another Baz v BuddieEK borefest. Sigh……

How is that random figure derived?

Does it make any difference to the draw for the last 16 whether you win the group or not? Presumably the 5 teams playing in Europe will be the first 5 seeds and then is it the next 3 teams with the best performances in the group stages or is it something else? Dundee Utd already have 12 points with a +2 better goal difference than us. Dundee and Hearts are the only other two clubs that can and are very likely to get to 12 points and they both have a better goal difference than us by +3 and +1 respectively. So we’d need to beat Partick by more than 2 goals to guarantee being the one of the best 3 group winners. Otherwise we’ll just need to beat Rangers or Aberdeen again 😃 Let’s start off by beating Partick first!!

Motherwell gubbed by Airdrie. Well deserved too.

He was in the squad for the last 3 games of last season. He came on as a sub in the first, didn’t come off the bench in the second and started the last being subbed after 56 minutes. Also whatever way you cut it we’ve played 5 games this season. He scored against Linfield and Annan. He’ll need to start doing more soon. That’s all I’m saying.

That stat becomes a bit meaningless though Bazil unless you link it to how many matches have been played since he became fit for duty again. For example if that stat covered a match and half of football, then I’d have some sympathy with it. Whereas if it covered 7 matches where he kept getting hooked for being rubbish or not getting a start for looking rubbish in training, then it starts to have less meaning. I suspect neither of those two examples is the case with Brophy, but you’ll get my point. Either way, which ever way you cut it, Brophy needs to start producing something pretty soon if he wants to keep people off his back.

🤣 I must confess my jury isn’t too far away from returning a verdict on Brophy, but like most I suspect, I’m not finding it quite as funny as GoW.

Thanks FTOF. Despite watching the game last night, that’s the first time I’ve seen the goals. 🤣

I think some folk may have formed their view on Erhahon in the early stages of the game. At that point he was actually the one whose passing was poor and he was the one trying the spectacular passes and getting it horribly wrong. I thought after about 15/20 minutes he started to find his range and came on to a good game. Also, throughout the game he was constantly looking for the ball and never tried to hide. As FTOF said though, this would probably be better measured against better opposition. Finally, I’m not normally one for making excuses, but I genuinely think you can’t overplay the state of the pitch. It clearly wasn’t conducive to any sort of passing football, meaning we often resorted to the ball over the top which isn’t really our game.

Well, it was only one game played on a cabbage patch, so let’s not get too raging…….BUT…….rest assured if we play like that against ANY top flight opposition, we’ll get f**king ridden.

As if it was even possible, it’s been even worse since the subs came on.

I’ll take your word for it 🤣

It was ever thus.
