  1. It was "Match Report" usually on a Saturday night when they only had a half-hour slot !
  2. It was going to be tough anyway , but that was madness from Strain , they were starting to struggle and we've handed it to them on a plate !
  3. I remember Gus called out ex ref Alan Freeland before we played Dundee United in a SC Match at Tannadice , he more or less said he was from that area and was a homer. Freeland gave us everything and we won. Maybe SR should try a wee bit of it in his pre-match , by saying we seem to be getting him regularly , and there were a few tight calls v Hearts. Just something that may make the wee wretch stop and think !
  4. VAR , in their Weekend review, now looking at hand-ball by Lyons at the goal.
  5. Makes you wonder why Livingston got into bed with that Glasgow fly by night last week , that's a disaster waiting to happen too !
  6. Looks like he's away already , if journalist Scott Burns is to be believed !
  7. That's Ferranti/Meadowbank been bought by some dodgy geezer , do they never learn ?
  8. Billy Dodds gone , thought it was only a matter of time for him !
  9. I saw a breakdown of the amounts his previous clubs would receive based on a transfer fee of £10m. We were quoted as £100k approx , which is pretty poor I suppose , but we'll take it !
  10. Alex Harvey , 1975 Apollo Glasgow , " Ladies and Gentleman I give yous the Sensational Alex Harvey Band " !
  11. Yes but our players stood off him when he turned , if that was McGinn at the other end trying to turn onto his left he would have been blocked legally or otherwise !
  12. Bellingham is some player , but I'd like to think that if that was a game in the Euro finals , he would have been fouled before he turned to supply the pass !
  13. “We believe we’ve done all we can to keep Stephen. We’ve backed him in the transfer window as much as we possibly could and he works very well with Jim Gillespie and Keith Lasley on the football board. Hi Chris , just highlighting this quote from JN from last week , it seems that Kibble and the playing side are very much linked, I've also read that SR credits Gillespie with being "switched on" to what's needed to bring success. Sure , Kibble can't overstep the mark within the BOD, and if they have , it can't happen again , but , as I said before , we don't want to shoot ourselves in the foot , like we have done historically , when things are looking up on the pitch. This needs put to bed , quietly, so we can move on with what really matters , and some of the snipers on the fringes of the club need to get over their self-importance and remember it's not all about them !
  14. One way or t'other this will bring this farce to an end. My guess is that Kibble will get their knuckles rapped for not following etiquette , but the fact that the club BOD have the final say on any use of club land will mean this wellness centre couldn't have gone ahead anyway , without the say so of Smisa and the club. No matter what , Kibble own a fair chunk of the shares and they aren't going away .
  15. The entrance to WEWW was opposite the Tile Bar , so it wouldn't be Goldbergs. There was a Domus Supermarket there , but I can't remember if there was something else after Domus and before WEWW ?
  16. So , Sportsreel , Sportscene , Scotsport ? What was the name of Stv's other version , also featuring Arthur , but not in the studio , it always came directly from the game they were covering and lasted half an hour max ?
  17. Hylas , in the film Jason and the Argonauts , killed by Talos , the man of bronze , as he fell !
  18. Gavin Newlands MP , has addressed this earlier , and says they can do what they want down south , but it is a devolved issue up here , and won't be happening !
  19. Was that the reference to bullying ? If so , that was refuted by the BOD members in attendance ?
  20. That was mentioned last night , but only if both sides can reach an agreement , which isn't in place at the moment !
  21. Partly because AW used his unsuccessful attempt to become part of the Smisa board to to criticise Kibble on the Smisa website , his poor showing in the vote shows that most of the membership have no time for him . The longer this drags on , and the more the mud slinging goes on , then it's less likely AW will ever get his ban lifted , in my opinion of course !
  22. Smisa took legal advice in the hope of staying out of the court proceedings , because the Kibble's action partly relies on a screed by AW on the Smisa website , when he was trying to get on the Smisa board.
  23. The legal action is by Kibble against AW , but you know that anyway. AW's failed attempt to become a member of the SMISA board is a big factor here , with Kibble not happy at the wording of it , therefore part of their action is to prevent SMISA from removing it , which SMISA have no intention of doing anyway !
  24. As John Needham said tonight , the working relationship between Smisa and Kibble on the BOD is great , and the improvement in financial performance , turnover and the club in general is testament to that. AW is still the fly in the ointment here , because it appears that in his eyes , it's still all about him !
