Panel Pundit on SKY

Panel Pundit on SKY (14/14)

  1. It's basically recuitment, or the lack thereof
  2. Interesting you mention Phillips, i watched one game where he opted to go backwards 3 times rather than pass to Taylor What you are describing is a group of players who don't qualify for the title "team"
  3. Hospitality on sale today, though the exact date & time are TBC. Booked 4 slots and looking forward to this immensely
  4. Etete is getting injections in his back to allow him to play, which is wrong in itself and hopefully both temporary & not for a serious condition. I'd hate to see a young man damage his health just to turn out in a few cameos. That said, if it is something that he can get over reasonably quickly then i would give him a rest until recovered and then we can judge his ability
  5. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvg1jv77vy8o No action from UK Gov, including former Paisley MP Douglas Alexander not telling the Holyrood government that he was in talks with the owners over closure for months, results in Scotland's industrial base being hollowed out further. Ethane will now be burnt as fuel in the national grid gas mix instead of being made into valuable plastics or it could have been converted to Ethanol to green-up petrol to a 15% standard, which most petrol engines can currently burn without adaptation, had the UK taken the easy step of declaring that we could move away from E10 to E15. A really hard blow for the Fife economy and a matter of shame for Labour, who were more than happy to invest in a near-dead English steel industry just to buy votes in reformland. I worked their for 3 1/2 years and it was an excellent provider of extremely ell-paid jobs. For many years workers would desert Grangemouth to up their prospects at Mossmorran. While I didn't necessarily enjoy, or even like, working there I have to acknowledge that i got a grounding there that saw me through the next 33 years of continuous employment and a move from the tools to a professional career. The place was built largely by public money and RBS investment that was paid back via taxes on the fantastic incomes earned there and the hundreds, possibly thousands of jobs & businesses that it fed. For God's sake, even Thatcher's mob saw the potential & the effect of the place. Please Scotland, remember where Labour & Reform's loyalty lies and vote your way back to an independent & prosperous future rather than the slow death we are experiencing as part of the UK.
  6. 4 wins in tough, but winnable upcoming matches and a Falkirk collapse (united & Aberdeen will take care of their own collapses without me wishing it on them) could see us in fine fettle in the run-up to the split. We have really blown some chances to get closer to these sides with recent results so let's even it up, Saints.
  7. Mis-read you're previous post, hence the edit
  8. we did, the players just get more in that league
  9. Creaming your jeans at the the prospect? It's a pity he'll never team up with Cheesy
  10. I think he may need to work on the strength areas privately as we have a structure to support fitness at the club that is stretched just now with injuries to senior players and recent additions who need better fitness levels Hopefully Thistle will chip in as well but they may well prioritise their own players and wait & see if Fraz is with them next season. He didn't look any stronger on the ball after his Arbroath stint ended.
  11. can we swap Campbell for someone who cares?
  12. This is the January window, always slim pickings in terms of quality yes, we got the odd good deal before, however we’ve been hit & miss when it comes to really good players
  13. Possibly pay at the gate
  14. Sums you up, you continue to expose yourself at every given opportunity.
  15. Sorry, am I keeping you up? You maybe are a wee bit tired and that is why you missed the fact that the investigation has already been concluded. "A subsequent internal investigation later concluded that Ethan had been awarded the wrong grade and should have graduated with a 2:1 Honours degree. It was also revealed the mistake was not spotted by university staff, two internal exam boards, or an external exam board. A Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) review found systemic risks around academic processes and the student experience following Ethan’s death." As his mum said, the uni maintained over a significant period that the poor guy had failed when in fact he got a 2:1 (for you "university of life" types, that's pretty good going ). He was also Bi-polar, something the Uni was aware of and should have heeded. The family's solicitor will no doubt be seeking to establish a failure of a duty of care. There should be accountability as young people entrust their entire future's to these bodies that are often packed with pompous & self-seeking people posing as academics. You've a real cheek complaining about "opening the door" when you sued your employers for a payout for your injury. Why are you so bitter? You are having a go at a family that need and deserve answers.
