  1. Good luck with that. I asked exactly the same yesterday and he conveniently ignored it, yet replied to someone else minutes later
  2. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42983281 Player backs his former club manager for Scotland job. Stunned tbh.
  3. 1.40ish on Aberdeen against Utd seems pretty generous given how consistently they beat bottom 6 sides at home and how convincing they were against St Mirren. Think there's a bit of an historical bias going on there as they've been shorter than that against the likes of Accies and Partick.
  4. Chelsea currently have 33 players out on loan. That's on top of their first team and U23 squad, so you're probably not far off with that figure. They seem to use it as a revenue stream as opposed to a direct route into their first team. Wouldn't be surprised if the OF were interested in doing the same.
  5. Anyone been listening to the Golazzo podcast? Last few episodes have been a good listen and they've pinched the intro music from the old Football Italia show for a good dose of nostalgia
  6. Genoa have deserved this. Lazio lacking creativity without Milinkovic-Savic and a poor decision from Inzaghi to leave Felipe Anderson on the bench so long with that plodding midfield.
  7. Thought that was a strange decision from Valverde to drop Messi. I know they're miles clear in the league, but the played a weakened team away to Espanyol the other week and got punished for it. Almost the same again today.
  8. I got Haymarket-Aberdeen return for £35.20. Obvs need to add in a couple of returns at either end, so probably about £50 all in. Frustrating that we've had to wait so latefor the fixture announcement and that there's only 2 confirmed buses. MWI day up north watching the PH Juggernaut though
  9. Sky's coverage of the Coppa is dreadful tbh. Wish they'd just let BT have it so you could at least get some commentators who watch Serie A on a semi-regular basis.
  10. Not overly happy that we're letting Hippo go tbh. Splits opinion amongst our fans as he can look disinterested at times or try to do too much. But on the other side of that he can win a match single-handed. He hasn't been great this season (who has?), but last season only Sibbald was involved in more goals for us. Think he'll do well for Saints for the rest of the season as they're dominating games and playing with confidence. Definitely worth a punt for a team likely to be in the lower half of the Premiership too.
  11. Coutinho starting for Barca tonight in a pretty formidable XI.
  12. Bit of a stroll in the end. Penalty was debatable, but they'd been well on top leading up to it and created a decent amount of chances in the second half too. The goal from Dries to seal it was a beauty.
  13. Chiriches turning what should be a routine home win for Napoli into a decent contest. Some truly awful defending from him so far.
  14. Juve grind out another win to nil thanks to two hilarious and completely avoidable red cards for Chievo. They were never in any danger of conceding, but were pretty laboured up top without Dybala again.
  15. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/celtic-furious-stewart-regan-putting-11908178 SFA organise friendlies on scheduled international friendly dates. Celtic are raging about it.
  16. This is a Sky one, but Andy Walker's 'analysis' in the Edinburgh Derby was utterly dreadful yesterday. When they were showing replays of the goal, he screamed 'the backspin has taken the ball into the net' about 4 times. Something anyone with a functioning pair of eyes could have seen for themself.
  17. He got a poor reference due to a measly 1 goal and 1 assist in 12 games and for being a lazy b*****d.
  18. Textbook definition of 'Championship jobber'.
  19. Think it lasted 2 matches. We also had competitions to let folk watch a game from a truck cab and a crane. What a club
  20. Excluding a couple of diddy cup games in August, we haven't won a match when Taiwo has been out. I'd avoid us if he doesn't play.
