well fan for life

I like this equation. We are definitely lacking in big Norwegians IMO.

*Provided you mean his Motherwell form of January-March 2019. He was excellent for about 8 or 9 games out of absolutely nowhere, somehow managed to blag a ££££ 4 year contract off Rangers and hasn't done much since. He was so painfully devoid of any confidence last season that it became quite difficult to watch him. There's a few of us think if you just stick him on the left and asked him to cross a ball he might have more joy than trying to cut in off the right every time he gets the ball. Either way I think this is the most sensible move for him to try and resurrect his career a bit.

Tbf if they just quietly edited out the Killie lad and his burd nobody would notice. The Conservative & Unionist party representatives are surely out on their arse tonight as well.

As soon as I clocked that line up I was wondering what the f**k we were playing at. My hopes of progression went from being relatively positive to no chance whatsoever. I'd be fine with this as a tactic if we were playing Bonucci & Chiellini at the back and never lost a header. However it's pretty high stakes because if you don't defend one of those crosses you're ultimately relying on the keeper to bail you out. Which he does regularly. But even still. There's the old adage of it you throw enough shite at a wall some of it's got to stick. This is, largely, where I stand on it. I don't mind us having a couple of different ideas to throw at set pieces but sticking rigidly to it is daft. Annan had us sussed out before a ball was even kicked. There were at least 3 corners I can remember charged down resulting in us getting a throw in (which we've always been notoriously good at in my memory) or ended up booting it straight out of play ourselves. Similarly with goal kicks. I don't regard Lamie or Mugabi as ball playing centre backs so why on earth are you putting pressure on them to be one? Kipré was tremendous at striding out of defence and setting us on the front foot but there's nobody at the club right now could even attempt to do that.

A week today. So they seriously need to start culling the numbers here because realistically they've got 4 episodes to do so. They need to do the family coming in(I dunno how that works with Covid) and the final dates before the honking wedding vows/prom style bit.

You have to laugh at the Tory lassie shooting herself right in the foot there. Get her and the boring lad right the f**k out of there.

Back from my holiday, including taking in a bit of the highland league. To get this topic back on track: The Al Raj on Nairn High Street. An excellent chicken Balti. Spiced onions are clearly a different beast once you've left the central belt though.

Liberty excitedly telling the lassies about that conversation, only for it to go down like a fart in a lift. Tremendous telly.

I think the ideal outcome for this now is Toby & Chloe to win it and one of them steals the £50k.

This is what I don't get. He came off the bench last week and dragged us back into the game. He's been, arguably, our best player for the last 18 months. Yet Alexander turns up to this game still using the cup to give folk a run out. It's a reach to say it's a chance at silverware in a competition we've one once in 135 years but f**k me he could at least pretend to be interested.

This is literally our game plan btw. Like genuinely what we aim to have happen.

On holiday and went to the Nairn County game today. An entertaining afternoon's fitba. Nairn's first was a proper screamer.

I don't want to sound like I've lost my head but this is bang on, really. A cup run is something that can save even a shite season but Alexander's not giving a f**k it seems. Fair enough it starts competitive football very early in the summer which can be a challenge but we didn't look arsed at all in the group stages and it sounds like we didn't look arsed again today. Anyway. Looking forward to whatever inspirational quote we've opted for against a voiceover of the bold Grezza telling us it's all a work in progress.

I know big Grezza was complaining about this league cup but does he need to take a dive out of it?

Jake's a helmet right enough. Only telling Liberty what she wants to here. Scenes when the lassies inform Liberty of this though.

In fairness I'd sooner take a mixed bag from O'Hara than a bag of guaranteed shite from Crawford.

I would, at this point, like to get a background check on big Sofiane's agent.

Just seen him cross a ball straight into the keepers arms so he'd fit in with our recent crop of wingers.

Good to see Burrows playing hardball with this mob.

Agreed. I'm sure Mrs Watt's a lovely wummin but I'd probably say I'd eaten already.

Cannae go Priya at all. Huge, huge Tory vibes off her at all times. The NVQ/football patter is the worst thing ever broadcast.

At this point I'm fully behind the idea of Toby & Chloe winning it and one of them stealing the full £50k for a laugh.

Looking forward to pearls being clutched across ML1 when they remember Grimshaw loves Burnley.

He's 100% sitting on saying "oi lurv yoo liberehh" like one of the Wurzels in a cheap suit.
