well fan for life

Christ I cannot wait to see the released list at the end of this season.

Imagine having nae covid, beautiful sunshine about 330 days of the year AND Tommy Aldred. Just no fair is it.

This is a very neat summing up of it. He was excellent, now he's been mince and I'd imagine when your club captain is having a howler in amongst the various rumours about what's going on behind the scenes it's probably not inspiring the rest of the team. But aye. Fair fucks to him if he goes somewhere for more money, but I won't be overly gutted to see the back of him.

True but it's a good laugh steaming in for a fight. I left the animus very briefly when I was kind of forced to. It then appeared to be a lot of wider world stuff that I have no idea about having not played an AC game since my 360. So I hopped back in and carried on my days.

Really enjoying that it gives me a longship full of my own squad of raiders then tells me I can stealth to take a fortress. Doesn't seem very viking of me does it?

Shout out to the Orlog lads for the flawless tactic. It's been doing my tits in. I've just started the Eurvicshire arc so scrapping against the picts. I have absolutely no idea how close I am to the end now but I'm just wandering about scrapping with folk.

I wonder what Liam Polworth's xDFMOOTS (Date For Moving Out Of This Shithole) is.

I sometimes felt sorry for David Turnbull. No wonder he took to pinging them in from 30 yards when the alternative was a through ball to Curtis Main or Conor fucking Sammon.

Very much so. If we're going to make the women's team full time as a box checking exercise I'd honestly rather we didn't do it at all. Like fair enough if we've seen the back of this pandemic and have got the first team facilities in order but if it's going to be on a shoestring budget right now then what's the point?

If the club is anything like how most places work that need to build/improve things I would imagine they've got a list of stuff that they want to achieve. Then you start to sort it into priority of what's essential and what's desirable but can be further down the road. I would be shocked if having a full time womens team isn't on that list but, ultimately, is less of a priority than sorting out the east stand which has been in dire need of some work for years now. Essentially what @capt_oats said about building a training facility in the middle of a fucking pandemic only with a full time womens team. Also we're definitely signing Hastie eh?

He also played a left back at left back. Putting players in their natural positions. What a concept.

I suspect so. I am a fully paid up member of the Robinson fan club. He was a fantastic manager all things considered. It just seems like his idea to invest in unknowns maybe came back to bite him on the arse when about 50% of them downed tools and the other 50% turned out to be shite. Also I could be like 95 years old, senile as f**k and not remember my own name but I will still absolutely have a laugh at Manzinga's four attempts to clear a ball in that St Mirren game.

I suppose the other thing is that we don't really know what Alexander's long term plan is for how we play. I half suspect that the 4-3-3 sticking around is out of necessity due to the players we have. I'd be interested to see if Long was to stick about were we to play him through the middle next to someone (like Watt, for example). This is also taking into account that Cole is probably not going to hang about if he's given the choice. Even though I would absolutely love him to stay another year.

On the Chris Long chat, it's a conundrum alright. There absolutely, definitely is a player in there somewhere. He's rapid, has decent feet and can absolutely skelp a ball. I can't work out whether he needs a boot up the arse or an arm round the shoulder to get it out of him on a regular basis though. Would I give him another year? Debatable.

Fuming tbh. Had already arranged to pick up my dinner at 7pm. It's not paneer. Sorry lads.

I think one of the other issues is that we have no idea what we could expect of Fox. I think he managed 45 minutes of a friendly before he was broken. Either way I'm all in on Liam Kelly. Had a great laugh at him losing his absolute shit at the defending against St Johnstone.

On that note I'd love to see us have Kelly as number 1 with Carson as backup while he does his coaching stuff. Morrison can go on loan unless we have another crisis. I loved big Trev in goals but the way his knees have packed in this season is very concerning. And I don't think any of us want to be scrambling around in October trying to find a keeper again.

Had a couple of occasions where the game has told me I need to sneak through a fortress to get something. But 20 minutes earlier I raided it and there's literally nobody left alive. Overall it's a great game. Loads to do. I think I'm pretty close to the end of the main story but I've got all the Asgard stuff to do etc.

If he gives us thunderdome I'll buy him a chippy Tuesday and a pint of Neck Oil in Mono whenever he's available.

Too busy getting their flags to half mast etc to turn up today.

I thought Connolly was giving us a horrible time of it in the first half tbf. Clearly didn't come back out the dressing room after half time though.

Or even just off.

Best. Right. Back. In. Scotland.

Shocking finish from Long more than anything.
