  1. ^^^ This is the kind of Coyne I'd prefer to see more of in Scottish football. Not these crazy Protestant hate tokens.
  2. Good move IMO. Rangers are far stronger tonight than Hearts will be in a couple of weeks as their growing injury list takes its toll.
  3. The older I get the more I'd love to f**k off to the Antarctic and read books. Currently it's only Steve Clarke that's keeping me here. ETA - and my family of course. Can't forget them. Steve Clarke and my family.
  4. Out of interest, what was the police response to the accusation of Fritzl-time? Were the extremely thorough? Asking for a friend.
  5. They'll probably come up with a catchier title.
  6. That's excellent! He started extremely well with us last season, although in hindsight may have been the standout of a bad bunch - he was certainly one who was very quickly overlooked by Steve Clarke, and hasn't really had an opportunity since - so I can't seem to think he'll be back with us this season, the only thing is they might want to have a look at him in the league above for the second half of the season? Certainly skilful, I tend to like him - hope he keeps doing well for you
  7. Well, as much as I've enjoyed booting the shit out of Sevco the last few years, I think this is pretty unrealistic.
  8. Do you honestly suppose that there were people at Rangers, as was, who were tasked with explaining the intricacies of the EBT to players? Or do you think these guys were just told by their agent what they'd be getting per week?
  9. Starting to shite myself about tomorrow. What I wouldn't do for a comfortable win and a clean sheet...
  10. Wow. A stunning level of heads gone from DT. That's actually quite embarrassing.
  11. Ross County.....who were subsequently relegated without Billy Dodds y'mean?
  12. Exactly right Ludo. The general consensus about McCulloch is that he was an excellent scout, but a poor manager - whether the latter was caused by inexperience or unsuitability it's hard to tell, but I've never known a boss with so poor a record leave RP with as quite so positive opinion among the supporters. Of the current first team - O'Donnell, Broadfoot, Findlay, Power, Burke, and Brophy were all McCulloch signings. Although it should be noted that probably none of them looked top division quality during his period in charge.
  13. I was driving home from work listening to Miller and Preston's Billy Dodds puff sesh last night and couldn't believe what I was hearing. It was literally every negative observation about Dundee could be solved by the appointment of Billy Dodds. Honestly waiting for Biscuits to announce that Billy Dodds has single-handedly apprehended the murderers of Jamal Khashoggi.
  14. Absolutely great stuff from the St Johnstone boys on the last few posts. I can totally relate to scanning the crowd for your Grandpa, there's been a few members of my family going to Kilmarnock games and any one point for 100 years and I always do exactly this. It was a bit different for us because, while RP was dramatically remodelled 5 years later, we remained in the same place as it were. There is so much about my football routine that is all about place though. My father and I have been sitting in the same seats since it reopened, I have driving duties now but park in exactly the same spot that we always have, same walk to and from the ground, same faces and voices surrounding you season after season. How long did it take for McDiarmid to feel like "home" as it were?
  15. That was absolutely painful. Everything about it, from their inability to use the fucking thing, to their inability to talk while doing it, via the fact that they stood the whole time with their back to camera. Utter pish. I mean, Alan Shearer can use one of these! Honest to God Alan Shearer.
  16. I had absolutely no idea that the stadium was still under construction as late as that! Hampden season was 1994/95? And three full seasons later it still wasn't finished?
  17. Massive heel turn from GordonS. The sun will never set on the #juggernaut Empire.
