  1. Even younger guys like Pieters, Dubuisson, Olesen made one team and then just fell away. Hopefully MacIntyre kicks on and makes the 2023 team.
  2. I'll go 3-1 USA. They tend to start well and I really like the Johnson/Morikawa pairing, while I have the fear about Westwood/Fitzpatrick in their match. I'll say the top and bottom matches will be halved. The Ryder Cup app has McIlroy out with Lowry - surely a mistake rather than a Covid call-off for Poulter?
  3. Doesn't look like Harrington's giving much away with the practice rounds. Here's what I'd do for the opening session anyway. Rahm/Lowry McIlroy/Poulter Garcia/Fleetwood Casey/Hovland
  4. Devastating. Norm's in my top 2 or 3 comedians of all time. For anyone unfamiliar with his work, here's a few.
  5. That OT was great. Raiders probably deserved that, from what I saw.

    Week 1

    Beautiful. Not a particularly convincing win, but a win nonetheless.

    Week 1

    Poor decision making under pressure from Tua there.
  8. Arbroath 0-0 Hamilton Ayr United 1-2 Dunfermline Inverness CT 1-1 Thistle Kilmarnock 3-0 Morton Raith Rovers 2-0 Queen of the South
  9. Yeah I'll try to. Had a quick look at Sky's schedule and they've only announced the late game on the Sunday night - any ideas what the 6pm/9:25pm games shown will be?
  10. For someone who's watched some AEW but not all of it, is there a better AEW match out there than The Young Bucks v Lucha Brothers for me to check out?
  11. I think he picks Rose instead of Stenson.
  12. It's a pretty stacked roster now and you wonder how they're going to keep everyone happy, especially with Bray Wyatt rumoured to be joining. Kenny Omega, CM Punk, Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley, "Hangman" Adam Page, MJF, Adam Cole, Darby Allin, Chris Jericho, Miro, Malakai Black, Andrade El Idolo. That's 12 main event calibre people (13 if Bray joins) without mentioning the likes of PAC, Jungle Boy, Christian Cage, Lance Archer, Sammy Guevara and the best wrestler they have - proven again last night - Rey Fenix. Good problem to have I suppose.
  13. Big Show Alex Salmond - Martin Keown - Brian Taylor Mani ------------------------------------ Mark Watson Brian Cox (actor) - Jim Davidson - Nick Cave Ally McCoist - David Dickinson
  14. Prison Officer. It might actually be a fulfilling and interesting job but just the thought of going to prison every day for work and dealing with a load of dangerous arseholes isn't for me. Pilot. Just wouldn't like the lives of hundreds of people being in my hands each day, as I'm more than capable of making an arse out of basic tasks.
  15. Is Reed certain to get a captain's pick, do you think? As you say, he's not got too many allies there, plus he's just coming back from pneumonia. 6 picks from (3 up for grabs when you consider those in bold will definitely get a pick - Reed probably falls into this category too?): Finau, Schauffele, Spieth, English, Reed, Berger, Simpson, Scheffler, Burns, Horschel, Kisner, Mickelson. I think he'll have Finau, Schauffele, Speith, Reed, Berger, Simpson pencilled in unless someone does something special this weekend. If I was American and had an input, I'd leave Reed out and go for Kisner.
  16. Was out at Ox and Finch in Glasgow last night, very nice. Pork belly and scallops pictured. Also shared the meatballs, duck leg and leeks.
  17. More rumours over the weekend that the Dolphins are still interested in Deshaun Watson. Really hope that's something we don't do.
  18. First half was fine but second half we were really entertaining. Turner and Graham were excellent, and Smith looked great on the ball when he came on. Sneddon barely had a save to make. Overall a very enjoyable day.
  19. Well done. I did C25K as well and found it really helpful. I'm a yo-yo with my weight, in the past five years I've been anywhere from 13st 13lbs to 17st 2lbs. I don't run too often but at my lightest there I still couldn't get under 30mins for a 5km. My mate who is a personal trainer advised me to go on three different runs a week to reduce my time - and it worked a treat. So on a Monday I would do 5x1km runs, pushing myself to go faster than my normal pace, and having 45sec breaks in between. On a Wednesday I'd run for 30mins exact, and a Friday would be a 5km run. It was hardly an incredible time I got down to - 29min20sec - but I was delighted with it.
  20. Think it’s a bit of a stretch to include Murray and Smith in there. With Mayo starting in central defence you’ve really only got Gordon as an option from the bench who can cover the starting three, now that Sena and Owens are away. With McCall talking about needing two more, I’d think one is a defender and one is a midfielder. Could be wrong though.
  21. Billy Owens away to East Kilbride on loan, so assuming McCall’s got a central midfielder lined up.
  22. Some Orient fan on Twitter: Tunji Akinola has some future ahead of him, the lad absolutely oozes class and calmness, can’t remember seeing a defender as calm as him. Really hope we get in early and offer him a contract, could be a real asset for us #lofc
  23. Maybe it is a bit much. What are we settling on then? 1st: Incredible. 2nd: Excellent. 3rd: Great. 4th: Good. 5th/6th: Poor. 7th/8th: Very poor. 9th: Oh shit. 10th: Fold the club
  24. Graham, Rudden, Tiffoney, Smith, Hastie, Murray and MacIver fighting it out for 3/4 places is the best group of forwards in the league, IMO. We've still got at least one, I'd imagine two (RB and CB) defenders to come in. I know a few Thistle fans thought before this season that a mid-table finish would be fine, but I totally agree. Obviously Kilmarnock are the favourites, and it's early days but looking at the rest of the teams if we finished 5th that would be a very poor season.
  25. Demolishing the South Stand terracing before getting planning permission for the re-development. Starting Ryan Stevenson up front instead of Lyle Taylor in the cup game v Inverness in 14/15. Unforgiveable.
