Thought we were quite good today though the opposition were poor. Both centres did quite well and the Israeli boy took his two goals well. Refereeing as usual was atrocious and the dirty wee tosser number 23 was allowed to stay on long enough to catch Strain a sore one. Hopeful!y not a serious injury as he is our Best player by a distance.
I will still attend all the matches, just not confident of the outcomes. Aberdeen. Hibernian and Hearts all look strong and Dundee are also making signings. Just think it might be harder this sea son.
Apparently whoever it is will take months to be fit. Robinson said as much himself. Think this could be a very difficult season. Seem to be weaker all over the pitch. Would already be happy with third bottom.
One of our two competitions we can possibily compete for or make a few bob from and for the second year in a row we may have blown it straight away. Every season I ask where are the goals coming from? Defence also looks much weaker than last season. Hopefully still one or two to come in.
Bottle completely crashed. Field placing wierd. Every shot is two because all fielders too deep but if they hit over the top they get six because no-one is on the line. Couple needed off two overs. Really threw it away.
Scotland 277 for 9. Could have been better. Lost their way a bit in the last 10. Still a fairly good score. Hopefully Sol e can get in amongst them. Netherlands must get the runs in 44 over to qualify on run rate.
Excellent performance. Made heavy weather of it in the middle but managed to get the job done. Big game against The Netherlands to come. Winner goes to India for the finals against the top sides.
Scotland have Zimbabwe in real trouble. The boy Chris Sole touching 90 miles per hour. Just dropped an easy catch to get rid of the only real threat left. 35 for 3 chasing 235. If Raza had gone there the match was all but over.
Probably did not demand full development fee. Fair enough to get deal done. Hopefully , if the boy does well , we make it up with percentage of any sell on.
Why on earth did they sign him? They must have known the reaction they would get. Either do not sign him,probably correct , or sign him and have the courage to see if through.
Carson had a good season last time but was hardly a great keeper. Sad to see him leave but hardly irreplaceable. Other end of the park is our real worry.
