  1. It would not increase his managerial stock, unless he done a good job. Simply accepting the job won't enhance it. It's all very simple to understand tbh.

    Then we'll need to agree to disagree, pal.

    Every year you see the same terrible football managers ping-ponging their way around the leagues, hired purely on the back of their previous roles. Why was Ole hired in the first place? Because of his name.

    If Paul Harley gets this (obviously much higher profile job), then his name will be better known within these circles and by the bigger clubs.

  2. Are you implying Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's managerial stock has risen?

    No, I'm making the very specific point outlined in my reply to you.

    There is no mention of Solskaer in my post as we're talking about the individual case of Paul Hartley, even if they were a direct comparison you're overcomplicating something quite simple.

    He'd be silly to take the job IMO (if he's even been approached), but you're deluding yourself in thinking Cardiff isn't a much higher profile job (that would invariably increase his managerial standing).

  3. There was a fairly unassuming lad that went to my high-school who, through some monotonous, irrelevant accident had the misfortune of losing a tooth. He was pretty quickly labelled 'The Toothfairy' and despite it making almost no sense apart from having the word 'tooth' in the name, it stuck. I still see him cutting about every now and then. I like to think that he embraced his moniker, using his powers to fight the good fight; guarding the streets at night, stealing would-be criminals' teeth with a pair of silver pliers, enacting a type of oral revenge not seen since Monica Lewinsky.

    God speed, Mr Toothfairy.

  4. Cheers mate for the reply. Much appreciated

    Try and not worry about it, mate.

    I know that's an easy one to say, but find the things that take your mind off it and stick at it. Don't let others put you off; it's all there for the taking.

    Don't let it get on top of you.

  5. Why anyone our age would go near the Union (or Fatties, or Liquid, or Underground) when The Reading Rooms exists must have one of life's great unanswered questions

    SimonLichtie Kens, Kid Twist Kens, NotThePars Kens, thisGRAEME Kens, invergowrie arab Kens and Tamdunk certainly fucking Kens.

    Naeb'dy else Seems To Ken. The Rooms wins this battle hands down. Despite having some very good nights in Liquid (or the other 'big' clubs in Dundee), there are simply too zoomers for the place to be a regular haunt. Due to me no longer being a student, my attendance in The Union also just feels wrong, although was always good for a cheap night.

  6. I've lost count of the number of youngsters on various sites hitting out with the "So if I wasn't born then I guess I can't oppose her, should I not oppose Hitler either?" line. It doesn't matter how many of you say it, it doesn't make it any more legitimate.

    Hmmmmm, I see your point, but I'll take this one and play devils advocate:

    I hate Marmite.

    I've no idea who invented Marmite, but as it was devised around 1902, I'll make an educated guess and assume the creator was 'before my time'. As far as I'm concerned, the taste of Marmite disgusts me, and I therefore hold the originator in contempt. Infact, if Marmite were to disappear from the face of the earth tomorrow, I'd maybe even consider tweeting about it, or pass comment about it among friends.

    To conclude; Marmite is fucking horrific and should be outlawed.
