  1. It's dying because young people now prefer to snort their recreational drugs from a key or small spoon rather than a crisp £20 note. Woke nonsense.
  2. Aye, remembered that right after posting... Still though think the system, defensively at least, is here to stay but you're right about Babunski. What he offered earlier in the season has been nullified. At the same time we looked far too open with just him and Sibbald in the middle. Could you play Sibbald and Docherty with Babunski a little further forward? Probably doesn't completely suit him either and impacts Trapanovski. Tough one, Goodwin needs to come up with an answer soon though. Have a feeling he might change it to 3-5-2 on Saturday with Trap and VDS on the bench.
  3. No chance he's going to a back four. 13 September 2024 Jim Goodwin says the benefits of a summer he spent scouring the world to devise a formation that best suits his Dundee United side are starting to show. After stepping up from the Championship, United have made a blistering start to the season. They are unbeaten in eight games in all competitions and sit third in the Premiership going into Sunday's Tannadice showdown with Rangers. Goodwin said: "We are very much a 3-4 -3 in attack. We want to try and be aggressive in the top end of the pitch out of possession, but then we are quite willing at times to drop back into a 5-4-1 low block and frustrate the opposition. "The 3-4-3 is a system that a number of teams in Europe have adopted. I spent the summer pretty much analysing all these top teams all over the world and trying to come up with a system we feel would suit our recruitment process and the players we already have under contract. "This one has taken a little bit of time for the players to get used to, because a number of them haven't been involved in it before, but there are certainly signs in recent weeks that there is now a clear understanding of what we look like in and out of possession."
  4. There were a couple people who engaged him in other ways. I remember when he implied he was going to kill himself one poster told him to remember to slash up the way.
  5. Walton, the back three, Ferry, Docherty, Moult should be first picks if fit. The rest I've still no idea, personnel or formation. All still seems imbalanced and rudderless and we're trying to shoe horn players in. Though there is the makings of a team in there somewhere.
  6. Aye. Switched to Friday night for online streaming is a shambles.
  7. I understand. Tam Cowan tells a half decent joke about him in the optician that ends with the line, 'read it? I went to school with him'.
  8. Feel like (based on very little) this team might be better suited to playing away so hopeful about tonight. 1-0 (Trapanovski).
  9. Sugarcubes too. Bjork's vocals here, extraordinary.
  10. Willie Miller did once accuse of him of cutting about like a reggae singer.
  11. Ripped off a a fellow fan for a "Jimmy Shand'. Seems nice.
  12. Celtic moving up 24 places, can't help reading this in the voice of Bruno Brooks a la Top of the Pops circa 1992.
  13. FFS, the Goals Show with Richardson was the best thing about Champions League nights.
  14. The Lizzie one is to the tune of Give It Up by KC and the Sunshine Band. Though it would probably still scan with Three Lions.
  15. There's absolutely f**k all Scottish about those North British losers twirling Union flags yesterday, and thankfully so.
  16. It was followed by you can stick your independence up your arse without a hint of irony.
  17. Can we please remove these Butcher's Apron shaggers from the Shed next time. I really don't think it's worth 40 grand. I'm sure @Granny Danger would be happy to make up the shortfall.
  18. This is shite. Least you expect is a press when playing them, just standing off them.
  19. Funny because they can achieve this quite easily by just f**king off somewhere else.
  20. Too busy congratulating Luke McCowan for his first goal.
  21. The murder in Crime and Punishment is horrific in the casualness of its description.
  22. Looks like they've sold 20 so far. 600 quid, do I hear 'war chest'? People buying these probably own several stars and a few acres on the moon.
  23. More stress next year when I remember I've forgotten to renew my imaginary segment of turf subscription.
