  1. Here, I'm not one to start topics on here but amid all the rage aboot the twelfty-ten offsides for United's first goal at the weekend nobody seems to have mentioned something else that was a bit dodgy about the game at the weekend. See the third goal? See how Kello fumbles it, then just lies doon, disnae make any attempt to scramble after it? Good keepers don't do that when they make a mistake, and Kello is a good keeper. Bit odd. Watch it again. Shifty knees Kello in the napper on his way past, you see his heed shift, then his hand go up to his heed, then he collapses on the ground. That's a foul, is it no? That's him kneeing a keeper in the face, taking him out the game and then taking advantage and scoring the winner. Should we no be asking the compliance officer to ban him for a thousand games and get all the papers to call him a big cheat and aw that? Is that not how it works when someone hits an opposition player in the face? Is there no a precedent? I know it counts for f*ck all now, and we're doomed and everything is sh*te and aw that, but I've mentioned this to a few people who hadn't noticed it and they now think the same thing. Just thought some of yous might like to rage about that for a bit too.
  2. I know as much about football management as any of the other armchair experts on here, but for what it's worth I think my first eleven would be this:- Cornell Caprice McAusland Goodwin Grainger McGregor Newton McLean Teale McGowan Thommo I think McGregor could really do a job protecting the back four - he's a bit quicker than Goodwin and more likely to look to pass the ball forward once he gets it. As far as I know, this is a role he often played before coming to Saints. He would bring much-needed solidity to the midfield and give Newton and McLean a base to build on. It's difficult to accommodate both McLean and McGinn, but I think McLean is the more effective through the middle and more likely to offer Thommo real support so I'd start with him. It's not ideal to have McGowan on the left, but he can beat a man and might be able to provide a creative spark from that side, not necessarily as a winger but by cutting in and causing problems that way. I think he is too easily crowded out as a central AM and too far from the front line when he's played as a deep-lying playmaker. McGinn would be my choice to replace Newton, McLean or McGowan. Harkins would be an option instead of McGowan, or as a secondary striker. Bahoken would be Thommo's understudy, or a second striker. Alternative eleven:- Cornell Van Zanten McAusland Mair Grainger McGregor McGinn Caprice Harkins Bahoken Thomson I've clutched at a few straws with these selections because, to be honest, I think the main issues are lack of movement, slack passing, lightweight midfield, poor communication, lack of clear purpose and an absence of dig and bottle and I'm not sure moving some of the players about a bit can sort that.
  3. Aye, they clarified in full and called the guy Walter Mitty. Usual top quality bantz lawlz.
  4. I listened to the episode of Off the Ball in question. The "former-trainer-turned-stand-up-comic" that nobody had ever heard of made his claim, and Cowan immediately asked if this was just and allegation or if there had been lawyers. The guest responded by saying it was a matter of fact that he'd been sat down by the club and fired because his "problem" was "inappropriate". Seems like a far cry from either the version of events as described by the club, or the subsequent account by the attention seeking no-mark when he had been called out on the matter. Like most people, I would welcome an end to homophobia, racism and any other form of bigotry in both football and in society, but idiots like this do nothing to bring this closer to reality. This man just lied for attention as he is trying to make a name for himself as an actor/writer/comedian/pundit/anything at all as long as people notice him.
  5. I reckon the manager is playing mind games, but no wi agents or the media. Seems clear that he's just trying to get lovestreet to stop spamming every thread with his tired routine.
  6. Gonny just qualify ma patter wi an admission that I've no read this thread and I'm pished. Just want to say that we f**kin bammed Sellick right up the day, done a big fitba right in their grills and f**kin deserved tae win. Far as I'm concerned, it wis 3-1 and the only reason their wee shitey goal went in at the end wis so ma mate's brer could pick up 160 squeaks fur calling 3-2 the Buddies. Every St Murn player the day wis brilliant, every fan wis brilliant and Danny Lennon got it spot on. Not a foot wrong fae anybody. f**k Sellick, f**k the auld firm, f**k the shitebags and the doubters. Good to, good to be, good to be a BUDDIE!
  7. Cheers bud, although i didn't know he'd used it to be honest, it's a pic by a bloke called David Shrigley who is a bit of a legend in my book. I'll check out some of Malcolm Middleton's tunes on the back of that though, so ta for that.

  8. nice pic from malcolm middleton ( legend)
