  1. His job's a joke, he's broke, not to mention his love life's is D.O.A.
  2. He's a professional footballer, stop acting like he's rescued children from a burning orphanage ffs. He did a good job for a while, went away and came back and did a less good job, leaving on a bitter note. People don't get passes for what they did 4 years ago in normal walks of life let alone a heartless industry like football. IMO there was some valid criticisms of his goalkeeping and the 4th spell just epitomised the decision making at the club from signing someone who had barely been in football recently on a 2 year deal when we had 2 similar goalkeepers there.
  3. Farewell Ginger Prince http://www.qosfc.com/news-3701
  4. Beats Vancouver's hanging out the giant sheet approach in the strangest non Saudi FIFA game stadium.
  5. Atlanta United have taken an interesting approach to hiding off the top tiers in their new stadium.
  6. If nothing else,we're certainly building the best team 2007 has to offer
  7. We aren't asking him to build a palace, if he could place some conveniently located bins, paint a few walls or clean up some seagull shit, then that would be sufficient.
  8. New Atletico Madrid stadium almost done. Meanwhile Real Betis have been slowly upgrading their stadium. Going from Croke Park, to giant Broadwood, back to a normal stadium. Before During After
  9. Whilst building a giant glass tunnel is incredibly unlikely, there is a few rather inexpensive stuff that Queens could do to make the ground a more pleasant place to be. Personally I think the interior of the new stand could be painted and better lit to make it look less dingy, adding some sort of weekly/monthly specials for food to possibly make the experience slightly different each time rather than the same standard fare, and just generally make the place look less like a 98 year old football stadium. Hopefully for the clubs centenary they can try and get some sort of volunteer recruitment drive going to make the most out of what we have.
  10. Of the drafts I've had that was one of them. Going for a nap and missing the first four rounds wasn't a particularly smart decision. Picking 14th in division 1. Girls Don't like Bouyes, Girls like Carrs and Murray QB Tom Brady (3.14) Matt Stafford (10.1) RB Jordan Howard (2.1) Jay Ajayi (1.14) Terrance West (6.1) Darren Sproles (12.1) Marlon Mack (14.1) WR Davante Adams (4.1) Emmanuel Sanders (5.14) Donte Moncrief (8.1) Mike Wallace (9.14) Jaron Brown (13.14) Eli Rogers (15.14) TE Jason Witten (7.14) Austin Hooper (11.14)
  11. With wanting to go full Andrew Lloyd Webber on you all, There is literally an entire spectrum of colours other than blue to choose from and we go for grey on grey. It's one thing to be rubbish but another to also be dreary. Surely the best thing to do with a standard template effort is to go baws out mental on a stupid colour. At least then there's the possibility of a cult kit that sells which is better than having SD's attic loaded with this seasons 'effort'.
  12. I'm scarred by last season so I'm not going to go mental but to take 9 from 12 is better than I expected and I certainly feel with the new signings that we have a degree of flexibility and quality that I don't think we had last season. I still think there's a lot more to find out before putting judgement on the team such as how the team reacts if they go down or how we cope with a team with quick wingers like Dunfermline or St Mirren but the next month where we play 3 out of 4 away from home where hopefully we see what this team is made of.
  13. To be fair, the mascot race is a more prestigious honour than winning the Irn Bru Cup. What Dougie lacks in intimidation he more than makes up in being completely rapid, only concerning thing is that an anthropomorphic Dog is probably faster than the majority of the first team...
  14. The Mercedes-Benz stadium home of MLS side Atlanta United and the Atlanta Falcons is just about finished after 3 and 1/2 years and a cool $1.6 Billion spent on it. (The Retractable roof is getting properly done after the end of the NFL season.) First actual Football game is in 25 days. It holds 70,000 for NFL and usually will have 42500 for regular MLS games. Also has a high chance of being a host city at the 2026 World Cup if the USA wins it.
  15. Wasn't there rumours at the time that it was honest 'Arry Redknapp doing a favour for an agent? Would probably be the only logical explanation.
  16. Wonder if the D-Day landers were able to obtain the appropriate permits in time.
  17. To be fair Naysmith has never been shy about going for an aerial bombardment in the past...
  18. Naysmith was probably doing all sorts of witchcraft on Martin in order to avoid putting Robinson in the matchday squad.
  19. Not until Queens sign Christian Nade and rename Palmerston with a sponsor's name that takes multiple attempts to pronounce can we officially become the Sonhamers.
  20. Would just be like Kane to start off on fire. Hopefully we sign his zombie funeral director brother as well and Austin from East Fife as well.
  21. Well he was willing to go to Sweden and be a backup and he was willing to be third choice keeper at Rangers so I'd have him as exactly the kind of person to stick around.
  22. I mean we are paying him so it would be nice to get him to do something. He can either try and impress Naysmith and make a return to the first team or impress clubs in acquiring his services. Either way if he has a stormer then it's good to have a result from Tannadice and if he is utter pish then we can get back to making fun of his mate on here. Just as well Naysmith's attempts persuading Robinson to leave were unsuccessful.
  23. I assume Lee Robinson was on photo duty with the space between Tapping and Lyle being a fucking chasm.
