  1. NIreland miss a sitter, what a disappointing first half after the excellent play against Holland. Hunners of possession, no threat at all up front. Too pedestrian and predictable. 0-1 44 mins.
  2. Patterson, a catalogue of disastrous touches, gifts them a chance and a deflected goal. 0-1.
  3. Who, in your wisdom, do you suggest we play instead of these two?
  4. Bore off! Anyhow, plenty of possession but next to nothing to show for it. All a bit too slow/predictable and NIreland are quite happy sitting deep. 0-0, 30 mins.
  5. Shankland, unluckily IMO, dropped. Not an easy task against the Dutch, much better to have played tonight.
  6. Fancy a comfortable win tonight. 3-0 Get right intae the Irish fcukers.
  7. Your lack of any sort of awareness is stunning. .As usual you NEVER mention any of his previous wins or how well he plays. The same brainless views you post on St Mirren. Nip over to P&B and share your opinions..................they also had a high opinion of you. Andy Murray has revealed that he suffered a 'full rupture' of an ankle ligament during his defeat in the Miami Open on Sunday. The British legend fell to a 5-7, 7-5, 7-6 loss against Tomas Machac in the competition's round of 32 before later taking to social media to confirm the news. In a post on Instagram, Murray wrote: 'Yesterday towards the end of my match in Miami I suffered a full rupture of my ATFL and near full thickness rupture of my CFL
  8. It seems that the supporters who are turning up in bigger numbers that many a year are quite comfortable with the "beautiful game" and there's an element that will find anything to whine about come what may. If it wasn't VAR it would be referees........................oh wait.
  9. When you posted this I didn't think there was a chance Goodwin's position was in doubt but after reading the Dundee Utd supporters views since then you might not be faraway. This weekends gamer is MASSIVE for United and Raith.
  10. There's absolutely no point in trying to reason with him as he's simply a waste of oxygen.
  11. It's funny, no matter how well Norrie does he doesn't do it for me. Can't really pinpoint what it is but I just find him dull, as a player and as a person. Anyhow, Murray due on closer to 6pm tonight.
  12. Big victory for Shapavalov, maybe coming back to the form he had a few years ago.
  13. You pointed the finger at "some posters" which I corrected. No need to thank me.
  14. This is more like it, a good win against a player he lost to fairly recently, and in straight sets. (Look at the score in the tie break) Next up an unseeded player who, dare I say it, Murray has a great chance to beat and move into the last 16. (Maybe not quite a great chance, this guy beat Rublev in the last round) The bookies, what do they know, have Machac favourite, just.
  15. On the 3 or 4 wee day trips we've had the dogs, especially the wee dog, have really settled well. They love looking out the window and rarely make any noise. As we get more confident they will get to see plenty of new places, beaches, wooded ares and more exercise with two walks, weather permitting, a day. Already pencilled in a cracking site in Fort William although there are hundreds to choose from in Scotland alone. PS They will be sleeping on the other single seating area, not on the floor as that's a trip hazard.
  16. Koeman saw the game as most, they got out of jail so no need for any gloom or doom for the Scottish support. Koeman joked: "Maybe in the end, but not before the end. Yes they were maybe a little bit tight in the last 10-15 minutes and we got more space, and we know we can create good chances and score. During one hour the Scottish team was the better team and created more chance to score. It was unbelievable they didn't score because they had some really good chances."
  17. A wee site just at Forfar. It;s got a restaurant on site so we'll use that on the Saturday night, Not far, as I said, but this gives a chance to trial the whole experience before going further afield for the next trip. If it all goes wrong I can be home in under 30 mins.
  18. Almost all set for next weekend. Filled up the water tank today and added some cleaning stuff. Drain it out tomorrow and flush out again then we're all go. The overhead bed, as much as I fancy it, could be dodgy during the night getting down, especially after a sherry or two so safer to make up the bed in the seating area.
  19. The death toll, unsurprisingly when you see the footage, continues to rise. Last I read 115 innocents had lost their lives. Putin continues to be Putin and try's to deflect the blame onto Ukraine. Pity they didn't shoot him, do the world a favour.
  20. Shortroads from the 1990's, as I remember it. Alas, like many parts of the town, unrecognisable now.
  21. 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.
