    Alan Stubbs having the brass neck to criticise anyone about player recruitment has to be the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while.

    I don’t think he’ll ever manage again, even at a lower level given the monumental car crash he created at St Mirren and Rotherham. A complete failure on every level.

     

    I didn't think that Tommy Craig's shambolic recruitment could be topped but Stubb's did manage to do that with bells on

    And anybody who was looking forward to seeing Brendon McCullum in the Euro T20 can forget it, he's chucked it too after the GT20 in Canada finishes.

    Shame that, it would have be nice to have had him playing in Scotland. I'm lucky to have seen him in three T20 games. Anyone that thinks cricket is boring hasn't seen Brendon bat.  Fantastic career including the fastest century in a test match against the Aussies. Go well Brendon most exciting cricketer to watch ever for me.

    No question it hit his body, you could even see that from the Sportscene highlights yesterday. 

    The linesman gave it for offside.

    Just another in a long line of shite decisions by shite officials.

    I look forward to a few more honest mistakes when we play the Queens 11 next Sunday..................

    You'll be hard pushed to beat the four penalties given against us of which only one was legit.

    Not quite sure what you mean by that. Heaton has never played full-time professional football in his life. When we sent him to Kidderminster he could not even get a game with them. It is like signing someone from Paisley & District Amateur League and saying he deserves a chance with full-time professionals. Heaton simply was nowhere near good enough to be a professional player. He got a better chance than his ability allowed. The only surprise is why he was signed in the first place.

    Highly suspicious IMO. To quote chewing the fat. "I smell shite" with this  signing and some of the other donkeys that were masquerading  as thoroughbreds, that we signed. I can't remember a worse defender than Heaton. Even Robert Dawson made the odd good tackle and found a team mate on occasion.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Green Book 8/10. Based on a true story. A street wise army veteran of Italian descent gets the gig driving an African American concert pianist on a tour of the deep South. Well cast, with great dialogue and the relationship development of the two lead characters is a joy to watch. I'm rarely a fan of Hollywood output. However this film is more like a French film in that it concentrates on good dialogue and telling a good story.  Highly recommended. Not one for whizz bang, CGI filled,  American gung ho bullshit fans.

    I'm looking forward to hearing from @Poet of the Macabre who has got a real rod up his arse over Oran Kearney for reasons that I can't quite figure out, and has taken many opportunities this season to remind us of this fact.

    Round ye.

    Dunfermline fan  right?  The only hypothesis that  I can offer is that he is seething that our N.I. manager has turned out to be decent unlike Stephen Kenny who wasn't.

    St Mirren vs Dundee United

    From an ICT point of view we need both County and United gotten to f**k as their resources are insane for the 2nd tier.  I doubt Dundee or St Mirren would throw £1.4 and £1.6 million respectively (if you believe various sources) on wages in that league.  So hopefully it would be a more level playing field.

    This season, everyone was fighting for 3rd realistically. 

    Here are some stats on that. St. Mirren had the second lowest average wage.   Assuming that the total spent is the  average figure x 20, it still comes nowhere near  those amounts. Can't see that level being paid in Championship either.  https://www.statista.com/statistics/547202/average-annual-first-team-player-salaray-football-clubs-scottish-premiership/

    Oh it's absolutely true. I heard it today from someone at the game who (given they are a family member of a player) I have no reason whatsoever to doubt.

    Cammy was informed of this 'weeks ago' as well.

    Stubbs legitimately has to go.

    Jesus wept.  I hoped this was just some trolling. It looks now like Stubbs wants rid of all of Jack's team. Baird on the bench too when those two imposters were on the park.  Can't believe GLS sanctioned this!

    I reckon Heaton will partner Kpewaka with Jack Baird dropping to the bench, once the league campaign gets underway.

    Sorry not good at this quoting thing. ...  St.Mirren fans in agreeing shocker.

    I usually tend to be more of a knicker wetter than a happy clapper. When Tommy Craig took over, my undergarments were drenched and indeed this was appropriate given what transpired.  With Alan Stubbs I don't have the fear at all. I reckon he will assemble a squad of big cnuts that can play a bit.  I think he will sign another centre half  and the  ex Colchester  left back/centre half so we may see Jack Baird as being cover.  My confidence is based on the squad he assembled for Hibs.   Hope I'm not wrong...
