Gavin Galloway? Ryan McCay? Laurie Ellis? Eddie Malone?
We've had a few stinkers.
Lee Blunt wasn't much cop either.

Dunno. I thought it was changing but not sure of what to.
A maximum of six players can now be signed on loan by any one side in the coming season - up from four previously. And clubs will also be allowed to loan two players from any team in the same division - instead of just one -and four from sides in different levels of the Scottish league - up from two.Jul 21, 2020

Gardyne has been superb for County. We will be very lucky to get a draw here.

I think Sheron's on there for a reason. He's a pure spoiler.
I get that. Can't help feeling that we are set up too defensively. McPherson would change that IMO.

Hook Morias, cut out the long kick outs from Alnwick, bring on McPherson for Sheron, job's a good un.

We also had a recruitment structure at the time. You can argue about whether they were ignored or not, but there was a guy called Martin Christie (who may even have ended up posting on here) who was in charge of the scouting network and he had a few other guys working for him, who I think also posted online. Stubbs may have found them useless, but its wrong to say we didn't have anyone on recruitment.
Yet another interview from him where he spends half his time saying he doesn't have hard feelings. It's almost as if he's trying to convince himself more than the listener.
Aye protesting too much I think. St.Mirren didn't stuff his reputation, he did. What a load of dross he signed. Would make an interesting debate, who signed the worst players? John Coughlin, Ian Murray, Tommy Craig or Stubbs?

Update on fuckwittery down under. All 24 of NZ cases are in managed isolation having returned from overseas. No community transmission. However, 4 muppets thought escaping from luxury accommodation used for managed isolation was a cunning plan. 2 in jail, one out on bail. 1 still to make court appearance IIRC. Even more screwed up is that part of the reason for the spike in cases in Melbourne was that the security guards watching those in isolation were engaging in sexual relations with their charges. So quite literally screwed it up.

This is interesting to look at. Don't agree with a lot of these choices, but it's all in good fun.
The unknowns who had their kit sponsored by the Libertines, wasn't the first instance of that. Who could forget Clydebank F.C. and Wet, Wet, Wet

Like the home top body a lot. Don't get the can't make it's mind up if it's a round neck or a v neck. As the wee white v appears at the top of a black stripe, it looks odd. Same configuration of collar in black would be better IMHO.

I see New Zealand are ready to go "back to normal" now they have had no new cases for 17 days and, on top of that, no one in hospital with it.
Not "new normal" but normal.
If the SG were to come out and say when we achieve the same we would also return to normal (instead of constantly pushing the "new normal" bollocks) i'm certain people would be less inclined to take the piss and also stop moaning.
Restrictions lifted just over half and hour a go. Not just no new cases, no active cases in the country.

Update on New Zealand. Of particular note is the one active case. No- one in hospital. Most people have been back at work for two weeks and gatherings are up to a 100 limit as of today.
For the seventh day in a row, there are no new cases of COVID-19 to report in New Zealand.
Our total number of confirmed cases remains at 1,154, which is the number we report to the World Health Organization.
Our combined total of confirmed and probable cases remains at 1,504.
There are seven additional recovered cases meaning this total is now 1,481. Only one case remains active.
There are no additional deaths to report.
There is no one in New Zealand receiving hospital-level care for COVID-19.
Yesterday our laboratories completed 4,162 tests, bringing the total number of tests completed to date to 275,852.

In my humble opinion, Kevin McCarra back in the day was much better than Tom English.

On Thursday morning, all NZ businesses except bars will be open. Schools return on Monday. People can travel throughout NZ including internal flights. Bars can open next Thursday. Social distancing, hygiene measures and business contacts being logged will be in place. There are plans in place to lock down localised outbreaks going forward. 90 active cases in NZ, 2 in hospital, 0 in ICU and no increase in fatalities still at 21.

Which is completely different to any other country?
How many deaths has New Zealand had? Do they have any onver-70s and people with underlying health conditions?
The facts is: Britain fckd this up big time and we now have 50000 premature deaths. The Tories need to see the inside of a court on this.
Cases Scotland 12,437 NZ 1,488
Active Cases Scotland 3,130 NZ 151
Deaths Scotland 1,620 NZ 21 (more than half of these from one dementia unit in Christchurch)
Government meeting on Monday to review. We could all be back at work on Wednesday.
It wasn't rocket science, NZ went early and went hard. Went into strict lockdown 3 days after the first case of community transmission. Nae herd immunity pish here.

I heard it said once that the British had a tendency to lose every battle in a war except the decisive last one.
Britain also relied on the help of other allies in most of their major wars. So I might celebrate VE Day by flying the Hammer and Sickle and singing the Red Flag in honour of the nation that actually won the war in Europe.Absolutely. I just finished re-reading the excellent All Hell Broke Loose by Max Hastings, and he gave an astonishing figure of 4.7 million German combatants killed by Stalin's lads, compared to half a million German military deaths inflicted by the Western Allies. So aye, 90% Russia 10% UK/USA. British resilience and American resources were important, but it was Russian blood on the Eastern Front more than any other factor that won the war.
20 million Russian people (military and civilian) died in the conflict.

Haven't seen much reference to this. The U.K.'s first instance of community transmission of the virus was March 1.
Lockdown was announced on March 23rd. NZ 's first case of community transmission was reported on March 24 the country went into full lockdown on March 27th. Yet, the UK Govt. claiming that they weren't too slow in responding. NZ easing lockdown measures next Monday for two weeks then reviewing the alert level at the end of that period.
Scotland 8187 cases 902 deaths.
NZ 1440 cases 12 deaths.

It’s all about how you frame it. From the outset, she’s a PR star at the very least.I think she's a bit more than that. Didn't muck about changing the gun laws after the Christchurch shooting either.

NZ PM announces that she, all government ministers and Chief Executives of public sector organisations will take a 20% pay cut for the next six months. UK govt gives a 10,000 quid payment to each MP for working from home...

As a teen, I was on a night out in Dunfermline. Met a couple of student nurses who were both 23. They let me finger them at the same time. That was really nice of them. Great bunch of lasses.
Indeed, reinforces the fact that there are only three certainties in life, death, taxes and student nurses.

Jerry Cole has disappeared and, swooping in like a sexual predator. Lex is back.
My take. Could be wrong.
Comma shouldn't be used after the conjunction. The sentence construction is clumsy. Jerry Cole has disappeared. Lex is back, swooping in like a sexual predator.

That handball. Basically it was heading for his head and he chose to bat it down with both hands.
