The Other Foot

And the winner for most unintentionally hilarious sports headline 2023 goes to... https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hibs/major-injury-blow-for-hibs-europa-opponents-as-aston-villa-superstar-to-miss-both-legs-4262315 "Major injury blow for Hibs’ Europa opponents as Aston Villa superstar to miss both legs"

It can't be foam and wood at the same time, m8. This is precisely the sort of thing virginton will pick up on.

Spot on. Have said this for years. Phenomenal manager. Killie pulled off a coup bringing him on board, and it’s paying dividends. Hopefully he dodges either of the OF roles again and goes straight to the Scotland job, once Steve Clarke gets the Real Madrid job

KILLIE

I quite like @virginton’s effervescent angst. It gets a bit sinister when he tries to defend Putin and the raping Russian hordes, but otherwise it’s funny and quite harmless. Like an old man in a nursing home who forgets to stop masturbating when the carers are in.

Also… @Aim Here speaks in the third person? Semi final stardom getting to your head, buddy?

There’s a chess tournament on P&B?! How long has this been on the go?! I’d fancy joining once you’re finished the current iteration. Any of you play 3 min chess on chess.com? That’s my speciality, for when I’m putting the kids to dump or taking a bed.

Swish blish, shirley?

The motherfucking Martin Boyle wine mixer

Couldn’t agree more

Goodness, that grammar is abysmal.

Villa. * shudder *

Sucks that it was this morning. Not even time to drive over via the tunnel!

Struggling to feel anything other than doom to be honest, after that display at the weekend.

In other news, and just to show I’m not a completely miserable f**k, this is excellent: https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hibs/hibs-make-former-champions-league-player-their-eighth-signing-of-the-summer-4253443

I’ve always given managers the benefit of the doubt, I’ve advocated for them staying through rough patches (probably for too long in some cases). I think the modern knee jerk tendency to sack them is abominable. But Lee Johnson is not a good manager. I think he needs to go.

This feels a bit too 16th century for a 21st century Scottish football forum. But I’m in. Wherefore not?

Not that it’s a huge loss, but has anyone else’s feed just jumped to Masterchef?

Not posted on Mumsnet then

@Les Cabbage and @Hoose Rice. Come on lads. I actually like both your posts and respect you as posters. Let’s not descend into Jambo nonsense.

I’m genuinely touting Yogi. But I’m a card-carrying idiot, so… as you were.

What a fucking load of bollocks. If we don’t sack LJ and bring in Yogi NOW, I will be sending back my dodgy football streaming Amazon stick IN A FURY. That’ll teach them.

Are Celtic and Rangers fans the only ones who don’t see how similar they both are? Honest question. There’s probably a psychological school to back this up somewhere

My goodness Armpty Pit, you are RIGHT back into the fishing groove tonight. I don’t warm up until the first couple games of the league.
