  1. The stats confirm that there was nothing in the general play, wasted chances and a clinical Dutch side saw us take another beating.

    That's 4 defeats from the last 6, with 2 draws.

    The 4 defeats have all been against teams in the top 10 of the world rankings.

    Need a win on Tuesday against N Ireland to get us back on course and build up the confidence.

    After Tuesdays game there are only another 2 games before Germany, away to Gibraltar and at home to Finland.

    3 wins from these games will put give the support more belief before Friday 14th June.

    Christie and Shankland miss two great chances.

    Our overall play has been very good.

    Just lacking a wee but of class/composure at critical ti es.

    Still 1-0, 64 mins. 

    McGinn joins the list although not as much of a sitter as the two above.

    Very impressive opening 20 minutes.

    Great football, the odd slack pass at times but been the better side so far.

    Only a great save by the Dutch goalie stopped a Christie header hitting the back of the net. 

    0-0 22 mins. 

    1-0, out of the blue, good strike, a bit too much time/space.

    Probably one of the things we lack, a player who can/will strike it from outside the box.

    41 mins.

    I agree, in terms of gigs I’ve only seen, Chuches, Placebo and the Martyn Bennett Grit Orchestra there and felt that the sound bounced about a bit so there was almost an echo effect. 
     

    In general I will avoid gigs at the hydro but Elvis Costello was a gift and love the intensity of a Nick Cave gig but the English dates didn’t work for me. 

    That was exactly what I said to Mrs Faraway at the Marti Pellow gig.

    Both he and his support act were overly echoey at times.

    Would Gary Neville get away with this nowadays..................:lol:

    Gary Neville on playing against Liverpool:
    "I used to love playing at Anfield, 90 minutes worth of insults about my appearance, mainly from blokes who looked like extras off Planet of the Apes. I remember one game, a little chubby lad shouted "Oi Gary, my Dad says you're a w*nker!
    " | turned round and said "Yeah? I've got 8 Premier League medals, what have you got besides diabetes? You fat little tw*t!"
    He was in floods of tears, that's what the rivalry is all about.
     
  7. Just watched a short, 15 min, round up of Murrays win and it was good to see him moving well. :thumbs2

    He won umpteen points from just getting to drop shots.

    Really needs a win in this next match, not sure if he's won two on the bounce this year.

    Unlike you, I've got a life to get on with and I don't spend all of my time on here like some.  I've enjoyed taking a break from reading your non-stop bullshit!

    What is wrong with you?  A supposedly "fully grown man" bitching about "likes"?

    I have to agree with others on here who think you're not well.  Definitely not the full shilling in some way.

    :lol:

    The forum, after another nail delivered recently, is on it's last legs anyway.

    As for your question, I'd assume the current moderator will do his usual and monitor the forum closely. :lol:

    Tickets now bought for Nick Cave at the hydro in November, second half of the year shaping up nicely with Elvis Costello, Pixies (again) and Arab Strap also booked. 

    I felt the acoustics/sound at the Hydro wasn't the best, what's your thoughts?
