Dirty Sanchez

First sentence: Wow, never thought of that. Second sentence: Yes, crazy talk. Refs never even things up to cover their mistakes.

If we're saying they guy who punched it in should have been off for a second yellow, then I'm sure the ref will find some way of getting him a card in second half. That's how it usually works.

Crazy last few minutes of the first half. See what happens when there's no VAR.

Except for the billions who don't catch it.

Meanwhile in a parallel pragmatic universe, they celebrate in front of the fans, then turn and head back to restart the game with no incident having occurred.

Seen this type of thing before at Parkhead. Forget which of the German sides it was, but there was a totally avoidable fracas when they went to to their fans at the end of the game, which apparently they always did. Not allowed to at Parkhead seemingly.

We're due to play them a few days after the 2nd leg of the next round, if that helps us any, which is all I care about.

https://www.intermiamicf.com/en/post/2020/02/23/match-recap-inter-miami-cf-earns-0-1-victory-last-preseason-match In the Club’s last preseason match before its historic Major League Soccer debut, Inter Miami CF earned a 0-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rowdies at Al Lang Stadium on Saturday night in front of passionate traveling fans from the Club’s recognized supporters’ groups - The Siege, Southern Legion and Vice City 1896 I love the way they can contrive this stuff, right out of thin air. I remember when LA got its newest team they were mobilising the fans for their big rivalry with the existing LA Galaxy team. This is before the team had even kicked a ball.

Don't know how I'd never heard of this: St Mirren Podcast

Was trying to think how many games have been postponed at the new stadium. So I looked it up at http://www.stmirrenprogrammes.co.uk/ For the record, it turns out it's five in eleven years, plus one abandonment, mainly due to Derek Adams greeting at being 2-0 down and Willie Collum finding the one spot on the park where the ball wouldn't bounce. 09/10 Aberdeen - Ice/Snow 13/14 Ross County - Abandoned - rain 15/16 QoS - Rain 15/16 Raith - Late call off after heavy snow 16/17 Spartans - Undersoil heating chucked it 19/20 Hearts Also, six away games postponed over the same period, at Hamilton, Hibs, Rangers, Dundee United, St Johnstone and Motherwell.

I was in the Main Stand, and I noticed the away end looked busier at the end, when the crowd were more spread out (as above), than it did during the game when they were packed together. . My view was that we had enough fans there to completely fill two sections of the stand. However two sections of that stand is 2 x (21 x 28) = 1176. I've actually got a couple of pictures, but they are shite. With there being cash gates you might need to also factor in that was par for the course for home teams to under-report cup crowds back in the day. Don't know if that is still a thing.

On the topic of 1980s journeymen, I noticed a car from the Jim Rooney Driving School in Motherwell last night.

Big Jak nutmegs Tony Watt.

I dropped my act there with a fist pump. Locals hitting the exits.

Big Jak just brushed the guy Mugabi aside like he want there, and he's a big unit.
