  1. What about individual 45 minute matches? Do they count? If so, Raith Rovers v Bayern Munich [emoji106] I would have thought our win against Akranes was at least the equal to some of the matches listed there.
  2. As a couple of others have mentioned, it's the fact that we didn't just say to Smith that there might be money available to bring someone in but it would be contingent on the results of Cuthbert and McHattie's scans. That way there would have been nothing in the press and none of the frustration now that the money has been withdrawn. It has been poorly handled.
  3. I should be, because the 2 minutes thought I put into that list is probably more than the research the average reporter does. It's just a list of managers who I would argue have achieved more impressive results in their careers so far than Smith has. There is absolutely no danger he would interest a club of the stature of Falkirk or Ross County on the basis of the start we've made.
  4. He might get a mention in the press, as the height of journalism up here will involve a quick scan through the leagues to see what teams are doing well, but I doubt either of the BoD at Falkirk or Ross County will have him on a shortlist. Allan Johnston, Jim Duffy, Paul Hartley, Steve Aitken, Jack Ross, David Hopkin all seem like better options to me. Jim McIntyre would be a shout for Falkirk and then for more left field options there are the likes of Dave Mackay and Stewart Petrie, both of whom have started their managerial careers promisingly, and the usual amount of ex players and coaches looking for a break in management.
  5. When the wife and teenage daughter are in the car it's on capital FM all the time. It's torture, although it does mean that the only way is up when it comes to radio stations. I tend to switch between Absolute 90s, Virgin and Radio X.
  6. I would be shocked if Smith's name was anywhere near those shortlists.
  7. It seems a long time since he won anything. He's making an awful lot of money but seems to struggle to get over the line. Thomas takes the $10 million after finishing second.
  8. On the European Tour Marc Warren has just finished 2nd in the Portuguese Open to put himself in position to save his card and Connor Syme finished tied 12th in his first start as a Pro.
  9. Paul Casey in with a great chance to win the $10 million fedex bonus if he gets the job done tonight in the Tour Championship.
  10. Hopefully he kicks on and does well for himself. There is a long, long list of Scottish golfers who were near the top of the world rankings but who haven't managed to crack the Pro circuit.
  11. I'm sure Smith was quoted as saying it was a loan player he'd be bringing in. I'd be surprised if we picked up a free agent.
  12. He's currently at Edinburgh City. Smith does say he has two or three possibilities so it could easily be a left back rather than centre half that we sign.
  13. Yep, we don't have the luxury of allowing him a few games for the u-20s to get his match fitness up to speed.
  14. I saw that. No wonder he could allow himself a wee chuckle at the end of the derby when he knew his freedom was only weeks away.
  15. I had a figure of 20 points per quarter being a target to aim for to guarantee promotion so those figures seem to back that up. At the moment we are nicely on course with a sixth of the season gone.
  16. 2-0 win for the u20s up at Forfar tonight. Goals from Smith and Watson. Osei not in the line up.
  17. That all sounds good, but if Hibs bid for Vaughan the board would have the "boyhood club, can't stand in his way" statement dusted down before they even got to the part where Hibs would say how much they were offering....
  18. Knows the rules? He must've been swotting up over the summer.
  19. Gordon to link up with old boss Barry Smith on a short term deal...
  20. I'm a bit wary of playing McKay but on balance it's preferable to continuing with Robertson at centre half until Benedictus or McHattie regains fitness.
