  1. At a time when racism is being highlighted in football all over the UK, thats just absolutely fucking moronic. Surely United can't continue to stand beside him.
  2. He's probably alright for a lower tier relegation slog where the result is more important than the performance, tbf. I'd expect you'll look to upgrade him for a promotion push next season, then completely eradicate him for the push for Europe. Assume you lads seen this yesterday, I've been wrong about Alston, he's been one of our best players this season and only scores worldies He scored midweek against Hearts, the worst goal hes scored for us, and even then it was a first time volley from a cross.
  3. Hope everyone on Twitter is reminding him of this, considering he's an Aberdeen fan.
  4. The record for games unbeaten is seemingly 16, back in 86/87, between October and January. Lost October 4th, 3-0 at home to Stranraer, then 16 games (10 wins, 6 draws) until a 4-3 defeat away to Cowdenbeath on February 3rd. Just seen you were on about top flight, I imagine you'd have to go season by season as it won't be highlighted in any record book. Vague memory of a decent unbeaten run under McIness but that was maybe just a home record? Lomas' best run was 7, Wright went 8 in 14/15, between 25th October and 27th December. Can't see anything higher than 8 since we came back up, anything before that is for those older and more knowledgeable than me to figure out.
  5. And what happens if you get relegated? Or decide your youth development system is costing too much? Motherwell are only being invited because it means the Old Firm can claim it's not just them who'll be benefiting. In this situation you're little other than a third wheel being dragged along to watch two other folk pump each other. I'd lose a lot of respect for Motherwell if they agreed to that.
  6. Who's all out of contract this Summer @Kyle? Have to wonder if TWs commitment will help persuade the likes of Watt to extend their stay.
  7. Unreal news, surprised at the length of it but shows unreal commitment. His interview at half time of the Alba coverage was promising in terms of a new contract but you're always worried someone would tempt him away.
  8. Be worth a phone call anyway, didn't get a list of parts that were covered so be braw to find out if a turbo was.
  9. Word of advice for folk that I just found out today. If you have a diesel VW that's been recalled for the emission issue, then for the next two years they'll replace any non-service engine part (injectors etc) that fail within two years, free of charge.
  10. 60/1 on Killie winning the league, only going to get shorter from here..
  11. Turns out a new strip is simply printing a giant eagle on a stock white top and shoving it with your usual shorts and socks, they'll probably charge £50 for it too
  12. That's absolutely mental, six games in three weeks? Gives a hell of a momentum though, if you can keep getting results.
  13. Tbh, I forgot how many games there were in December.
  14. Saints v Hearts. - Corner comes in, Davidson fouled, ref blows and books Hearts player, no penalty despite him not giving the foul until the balls in the box. - Haring, already booked, wipes out a Saints player charging at goal on a counter, foul, no second booking. - St Johnstone get an absolutely laughable penalty. Sportscene - Only show one incident, say nothing else about the match, claim Hearts were robbed of three points
  15. You'll beat us. We're due our annual Winter slump and a loss at Dens always seems to be part of that.
  16. Are YouTube highlights also not allowed to be shown until Sportscenes been on? Its an absolute minter you can't see match highlights, from a Saturday 3 oclock game, until almost 24 hours after the match has finished.
  17. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/46460528 Doesn't sound promising
  18. I sign my own assistant and scouts, but leave the other staff to the board or DOF, it becomes a slog getting youth staff and that. Just be wary that they're prone to signing too many staff members and you end up losing fucktons of money.
  19. Had no idea you lot were in 10th. Caldwell was a horrendous appointment, and he'll take you down, no question. Worst thing is you'll get a swathe of folk claiming it proves you were wrong to sack Archibald.
  20. Funnily enough, a Saints player, Jackie Coburn, scored a hat trick in the same game. You wonder how many times two players have scored hat-tricks for opposing teams. He was pretty much the opposite of Gilzean, as Coburn never scored in any other game for Saints. His brother, Willie, is in our Hall of Fame.
  21. Absolutely lost amongst who's whooshing and who's being serious, but Alston won't be leaving. Scougall is likely to be let go, but we've suffered a season ending injury for one winger and another has a knock, so he might feature for us this month and find a way back in. You'd be better trying to get Chris Kane on loan, he's not going to be first choice for us, and he doesn't look good enough for the top flight. One of those weird strikers who'll score regularly at this level but never make the step up.
  22. McIntyres first January wasn't even that good was it? Curran and Fraser the only ones he signed who played regularly. Boyce and Irvine were already there.
