  1. That would be some signing for West Ham. Thought bigger clubs would be in for him.
  2. You signed half a new team in Jan, so I'm not sure you can use the upturn in results as proof alone that he's 'one of, if not the best in the league'.
  3. My post had nothing to do with Falkirk. I was genuinely interested why such a big claim could be made about somebody who only made 9 appearences for St Mirren and played the first half of the season at the 17th placed team in League Two. If he's impressed in that short period and St Mirren fans are happy with the signing then fair enough, but it's still a big shout.
  4. Don't forget the 2 that Clark scored that season. Gamechangers IMO.
  5. Weren't Real holding out for upwards of £70m from Utd/Chelsea? English clubs get the pish ripped out them in the transfer market and rightly so.
  6. Muirhead has scored 5/5 in competitive games for us. We're going to romp the league with Hippo and Austin winning pens all over the shop and Aero smashing them home.
  7. Aye, would have been interesting to see how his career went if he hadn't missed so much of his time at Brentford through injury.
  8. He played 26 games and was involved in a goal every 136 minutes. That's a pretty decent output for a winger, especially in a team that finished 7th. Where possible, I'd much rather put my faith in the something quantifiable like goals and assists than the opinions of fans. For me, there's enough there to suggest he can be a capable player for us. He's not going to single-handedly win us the league, but I'm fairly content with the attacking options we've got.
  9. Wouldn't feel too sorry for him. I saw him on the way out the ground getting into a top of the range Merc with a tidy as f**k bird. What a guy.
  10. Aye, Muirhed at least ran at his man when he got up the pitch as opposed to Kidd who checked inside/backwards every time an opponent came near him and was blowing out his arse after half an hour.
  11. We were pretty laboured in the first half and most of the time we did get forward it was down the right and amounted to nothing (our two weakest performers of the night were Kidd and Shepherd IMO). We looked a lot sharper second half with more of play in the final third going through Harris. He played on both sides at various times in the second half and looked comfortable in either. Pleased to see him get two assists for his efforts. McKee was also a positive as he was always available and trying to dictate play. From goal kicks we appeared to be letting the CBs split and him take the ball deep. Wouldn't be averse to us playing out from the back like that. Austin took his goal well and it was a good run from O'Hara for a tap-in. All in, can't complain.
  12. What sort of turnout are you expecting tonight? I see your ground has 500 covered seats and the weather hasn't been too promising so far today.
  13. Don't normally go to friendlies, but it's not far from my work and I'm choking on a bit of live football. Hoping the rain holds off as there's only 500 covered seats, although that may be an optimistic turnout.
  14. My bad, been a long day. Don't think it's a bad move as Luton should be one of the favourites for League Two given they finished 4th, but I did think League One clubs might be in for him.
  15. Their average gate in 16/17 was just over 8,000 which was worse than everyone in the Championship except Burton.
  16. The 10th best team in Scotland lost in ET to the 10th best team in the Swiss League. Disgraceful result IMO.
  17. Imagine feeling optimistic after signing a proven goalscorer who had a good relationship with the fans in a previous spell with the club. Shame on us
  18. It's been like this since 2012. They pick and choose when they're the same club to fit whatever argument they need it for.
  19. He'd get my vote. When I've exhausted all my podcasts, I sometimes fire on Clyde 1 on the way home from work for a laugh at all the delusional, slavering OF fans. He's as bad as some of the callers.
