  1. Not sure Fitzpatrick is getting enough credit for that finish. Tough to appreciate from many of the angles but it was very nicely done. Great cross too.
  2. You can argue that we would have stayed up without Caldwell, either by the season being played to an end as was expected when the change was made or by replacing him at a different time or with a different manager. Anyway, that's all hypothetical. I think Caldwell did his best and despite his failings the bulk of the blame for the current situation lies with the board, not with Caldwell or McCall (though since the 3-1 vs Dundee his tenure has been just as bad as Caldwell's).
  3. 9am pitch inspection so I doubt it'll be warm enough by then to have thawed the pitch. It's superficially a fair question but even with hindsight there are very few who would have kept Caldwell on and I doubt his intention was to provoke some introspection. The problem is that the club's issues were fourfold: shite players, shite manager, deep-rooted institutional rot, and continual board room uncertainty. Replacing the manager was the right call but the other three obviously take time to correct.
  4. Palmerston 102m x 67m Hampden 105m x 68m.
  5. Folk saying a player "loves a goal against us" because three of his two hundred career goals have come against that team. This annoys me twofold: firstly, that people are taking tiny sample sizes and thinking they're statistically significant; secondly, I'm sure that player loves scoring against all teams. See also: former player "guaranteed" to score against old club.
  6. I gave up after five hours. I've had waits of over two hours before. Suppose I'll have to go through it again next time I shut down though.
  7. Graduated from the naughty step to the middle step then?
  8. Posters like this coming down from the upper leagues looking to sate their boredom really is one of the stealth costs of a lockdown.
  9. In all seriousness, I don't understand folk who watch foreign football over Scottish stuff. Bit of a shame they're showing one of the teams in two consecutive rounds, but surely you want to be watching teams you could/will come up against or get players from rather than two irrelevant clubs from another league system.
  10. Nah, drive to the Falkirk-Stirling DMZ, hand over the package to a Stirling based pal, get him to return it for you, then repeat the process with the £40.
  11. Very good summary, but to nit pick, Erskine is at East Kilbride.
  12. See if Windows is installing an update as part of shutting down the computer, how long should you wait before giving up and switching it off? Mine's been at it for over four hours now.
  13. "Don't start nothing won't be nothing with your safe space sheeple asses" I've no idea what this person is on about.
  14. Is drug testing continuing in its usual half-arsed way during lockdowns?
  15. I also used to live in Finland, I'd rather have been diddled by Japanese fishermen though.
  16. Aye, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
  17. Jay Kay surely? Must be the same folk who think Debbie Harry's name is Blondie rather than it being the band she was in. They absolutely would be. In Moscow or Tehran there'd be boots to pies all over the place. Not a chance they could have got away with it over there.
  18. Putin giving him lessons on how to handle your stemmed glassware.
  19. I realise you were there on recommendation, but surely any takeaway serving multiple different cuisines is bound to be shite?
  20. Forgive me for wanting to live in a society which values the rule of law. I look forward to you getting rid of everything you don't personally need.
