  1. Otherwise they would have been acknowledging that Kevin Thomson was play-acting and would have to bring some form of action against him.
  2. He's a player I would rather have playing for us than playing against us, which is the likely outcome of not offering him a contract.
  3. Shocking news Gary. I didn't know John personally but he was a familiar presence at home and away games. A loyal fan. R.I.P.
  4. I think his name is Drew, not Bill.
  5. 1. Not us. 2. Hopefully Dundee will win their league. 3. Maybe Killie for 11th, as they should be good enough to beat Hamilton or Falkirk over two legs. We don't want plastic pitches in our top league. 4. I agree that Ross County bring little to the top league but at least they play on grass.
  6. Victories for Killie and Hearts would suit us very well this weekend.
  7. Perhaps more than we deserve at half time, a decent first 5 minutes and a decent last 5 minutes. Passing has been very poor, McGowan and Newton must up their game in the second half.
  8. I wonder if any of you have heard her version of Slade's Merry Xmas Everybody. I think it is amazing what she has managed to create from the basic material. Well worth digging out on the internet.
  9. Eh ? You can wear the shorts on your feet and the socks to cover your bum ?
  10. Ross County have begged for leniency for Jamie Hamill after his barge on Adams. Well, well, aren't they such a nice bunch of people, so willing to forgive this act af needless aggression ? Or maybe they want to minimise the length of Hamill's suspension because Hearts still have to play the other four clubs in the bottom 6. Or am I just being cynical ?
  11. Saturday was very enjoyable but let's not go overboard because Hibs are 100% gash. Everybody beats them. Anyway DL won't be sacked. His contract won't be renewed.
  12. PEDANT ALERT !! Shouldn't that be sewerage ?
  13. Hibs recent slump has brought them right into the mix for the play-off spot. It has been widely reported that they have won only once in the league since they defeated Hearts on 02 January (vs Ross County at Easter Road). How does that compare to the others in the bottom 6 since 02 January ? Looking at the league table from back then Hibs were actually in 6th place above St Johnstone. In the fixtures that have taken place since then here is how the form has worked out i.e. points and goal difference :- Ross County 17 points and (+1 gd) Partick 15 (-3) Hearts 15 (-5) Killie 12 (-8) St Mirren 11 (-11) Hibs 7 (-15) On that evidence you could argue that ourselves, Hibs and Killie appear to be in bigger danger than Ross County or Partick. Five cup finals to play !!
  14. My puerile contribution was not intended to offend. Sadly Bob Geldof's life has been punctuated by tragedies and now two young children have been left without their mother. Nonetheless if you look back at most of the "So Farewell Then ...." genre of threads on B&W Army you will find them peppered with puns and attempts at black humour with no offence intended. For some reason, presumably the young age of the deceased, it is offensive this time around. A lesson learned by me, some deaths are ok to throw humour at (maybe old or middle-aged people)and others are not.
  15. I understand she was a huge fan of Mickey Rooney, must've taken the news badly.
  16. They probably didn't focus on the offside first goal because no Motherwell players were offside. One thump up the park caught our defenders flat in a line looking at one another while Ainsworth and Anier strode on. I am pretty sure that Vigors was in an offside position across at the main stand side corner flag when he was involved in the build-up to their second goal (before they got 5 or 6 breaks of the ball).
  17. I suppose yesterday's penalty decision will give Derek Adams another opportunity to mump in the tabloids about refs being anti-Ross County. Let's hope it's true, roll on more dodgy decisions coming in our favour.
  18. I think Naismith is shaping up to become a big player for us. There is bound to be a clearout this summer, Naismith is one we could build a new team around.
  19. Perhaps the drum is just being used as a cymbal for a more annoying issue. Drums add nothing to atmosphere, they are annoying and distracting. Old guys get easily annoyed, you know.
