  1. Glad to help balance your view bud. Any time.Since they arrived, they have been playing in an area of the pitch the ball rarely reached under Craig. I read that in 50% of Craigs matches we registered 2 or fewer chances on target. What chance would ANY striker have under those conditions. Even Thommo struggled. Don't get me wrong, Ball may well turn out to be shite... I'd just like to give him a fair crack at the whip before writing him off.
  2. Sheesh... a bit touchy there considering i wasn't even responding to you. As I have said elsewhere, this season, none of our forwards... including Thommo... have had a fair chance to show their true potential due to the way Craig set up and demotivated his teams.
  3. Ball came on yesterday and created the third goal. How about actually supporting players who are doing their best for our club?
  4. No idea. What exactly are "yous" and how would we recognise them?
  5. Which came from a set play and not from being in a strikers role!
  6. He scored how many exactly?He played a blinder and did the best he could... but he should be playing just BEHIND a striker... not wasted as a main striker. Again I say... you are judging our other strikers on performances in Craigs team... when they were totally starved of service... publicly blamed for his tactical inadequacies, and robbed of all confidence. I believe in second chances. Don't you?
  7. You may want to.fast track the disposal. .. Michaels white one with the pink circle too!
  8. Slow roasted Hobbit is a delicacy!
  9. You will be relieved to know that somebody reported my photo to Facebook for inappropriate nudity!!! Quite right too.
  10. No desire. Admittedly they performed when the pressure was off... I don't find that a surprise under the circumstances. What I did notice in our end of season game was a well motivated, well coached and well shaped team.
  11. Sorry guys... i didn't realise the hood was so upsetting. Sorted!
  12. Best Christmas present ever... Man chefs apron with detachable all weather hood and pockets galore! Enjoy your Christmas dinner and sorry about the reflux!
  13. Folks are questioning why we offloaded the sublime talent that is Harkins. Yet how shite was he with us? I am not prepared to judge Ball or Caldwell on what has passed as they were on a hiding to nothing playing up front for Craigs team. Too early to cut loose potential.
  14. Makes sense. What an absolutely horrendous situation to be in. How many of us have had that dream where we turn into Superman and save the day? How far removed from that dream can a reality get? I had silently wondered... but what could they have done?
  15. I was a great admirer of Locke and the job he did at Hearts... not just in an Ally galvanising sort of way... but tactically too. They had a great shape and discipline. That said... I'm not sure there more of a diference between him and Teale other than several months experience... ..
  16. Junior Supporters Club... or My old man. Can't remember. If it was the latter he'd have been pissed but that was allowed back then!
  17. I'd happily go with Ball or Caldwell as long as we gave them support and a supply of the ball in dangerous areas.
  18. I was there... scary stuff at times. Still have the programme too.
  19. Having watched the highlights... Care to comment further, apologise, or explain your performance Mr Muir? Blinkers indeed.
  20. No he wasn't! I clearly saw him running around too!
  21. At least Gary Teale has implemented a few changes to our play in a very short time. Whilst Tommy Craig was bemoaning the fact that he couldn't understand why we were losing when we were doing the exact same things in training that we were doing in the run up to the cup win... and this despite the fact he was appointed to take us in "a new direction"... he changed nothing... tried nothing new... and as much as he may have been respected as a coach... those coaching techniques were obviously very rigid. Teale had us try something different at corners... leading to McLean's "goal"! He was articulate post match, and seemed to get a response from the players. Those advocating Locke... I really don't see a lot of difference between Locke and Teale in terms of potential... half a season's experience, that's all.
  22. Honestly? Oh dear... I hate it when stories get out tgat trash care in the community and independent living. I guess sometimes it just isn't safe. ;)
  23. If he's buying, I'll be his carer for the duration of the coffee!
  24. Geeeez.... I think I've found a new place to shove Lens Lens!!!!!!
