The Queen of the South thread
distresseduke replied to qos_75's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Queens will do fine this season you will avoid relagation..that's as much as you can reasonably expect -

Yeah I think you have this about right ..deffo make top 50 midfielders though as time goes on you forget the influence other great local players like Jim shirra had on the team -

Okay ..point taken I'll give you that..Fulton & Flynn I would argue had less influence but as a player in his position in his generation it's hard to argue they were less effective than sibbs -

I only got two in...are you seriously suggesting Brian Irvine is a better footballer than sibbs..he isn't my favourite either as I've already said but cmon to f**k... -

Yep it wound me up so much that I've put in a complaint about it! No reporter at Falkirk Dunfermline & Qots games yet a reporter & summariser who both kept referring to the Lyon game been meaningless as it was Celtics second team...Jesus wept. -

Player doesn't accept contract offered to him from smallish club that he has spent his entire career at...player then goes on trial at bigger club in bigger pond equals he thinks he can do better vis a vis smaller club now beneath him...if you can't see that you are fucking deluded -

Nope just factual..I'd like to think he won't do an Alston & leave for a smaller club but like all of us money talks -

He obviously feels we are now beneath him otherwise he wouldn't be going to training camps with no guarantee...works both ways of course... someone offered 150k he would be gone. -

Harris if nothing else adds pace to the team.. something we are lacking in the wide positions but obvs not up front Austin is lethal & Rory ain't slow ..hippo & Harris on both wings offer stunning pace ..does Houstie have the balls to do it? -
The Falkirk FC Thread
distresseduke replied to Kris.'s topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Absolutely agree but I think he is potentially a game winner ..obv he's been wasted every time he was forced to play right mid ...he will be the major reason if we are successful this season cause no other team has goals in their midfield like he has -

Hippo will always be a an enigma imo again a lovely footballer..craigen I think is on a different level but will we play the correct formation for him? he can be an absolute weapon if played behind two centres & has an excellent shot on him but he wouldn't get in a 442 before Joe McKee who offers more in a central midfield position..a fit Joe McKee could control a game -

Okay as much as I like sibbs as a footballer we all know his lack of pace & dig will never see him being a top player ..in all his seasons with us he has never controlled a game like mark Kerr at his best can...top boi & local hero but I don't think it's a massive miss -

Mchattie seems certain according to the usual ITK people..I'll judge him purely what he does in the navy blue ..& really that's all that matters..if he's shite well we expected it ..but he may be decent we just don't know -

Except they had been relegated by the time we played them...one of the worst nights of my life ..biblical rain & non alcoholic beer...we went out with a whimper..still Pierre litbarski looked great in a suit -

Wish him good luck but never convinced by him ..way too many ricks in him & at times too easily beaten.....that's before I mention the cup final which he was at least partly responsible. -

The way he played for most of his time at LB & especially at Raith I'm confident both my grans would have been better...& They've both been dead since 1989 -

Erm in general it is...look at any league in the world & you will find the champions are one of the best supported teams...it's the reason utd are favourites & brechin will do down...sorry to have to break this to you -

distresseduke replied to Kris.'s topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Falkirks level? The eighth best supported team in the country shouldn't have realistic expectations of winning the league below? If we were cannon fodder like Morton with 800 season ticket holders id agree -

I renewed yesterday & I'm reasonably happy with our squad Harris may or not be shite..but Aird was a hopeless mason Boyne Canadian orange c**t...so he cant be any worse..Kidd has to step up & make RB his own..we need a striker but maybe O'Hara can step up( I've written shepherd off) -
