  1. OAM an absolute nonsense there. Announced VAR check at Tannadice, ball looks as though it hit defender's hand, yes it's a penalty. At no point did they say who the penalty was potentially for until they said McGrath was going to take it. Even then you had to know who he played for.
  2. Let's face it, Celtic and Rangers wouldn't be interested and we're probably looking for a bit more than Aberdeen or Hearts would likely be prepared to spend.
  3. There used to be a big away car park like you describe where the training pitch is now but that was probably a long time ago. When I go, I normally park in the housing to the south of Crieff Road- you can make your way through to Broxden Roundabout when you leave without having to go onto Crieff Road. I'm sure one of the friendly St. Johnstone fans can suggest something better though.
  4. Disappointed. Glasgow normally wins those. And murders and knife crime, you forgot those.
  5. I can see a career as a teacher for him once he hangs up his boots.
  6. Confirmation that was a family matter that got to him at the end and he's very understanding of the Chinese club situation, maybe because he knows there's something else lined up. We'll find out soon enough.
  7. I've just remembered about this competition. I know it hasn't finished but am pretty sure I've done spectularly badly. Anyone think they're in the running?
  8. The odd thing about the season was we had a forward line which could, when it got going, do some damage and that ultimately got us through the play-off in fine style. Unfortunately the performance of the rest of the team tended to only damage ourselves.
  9. There's not been much feedback from Killie fans on here - was this a fairly typical display? Whenever I've seen Killie they've been similar to this with a battling display but a lack of creativity up front and looking to get something from a set piece. It's worked for them before but their deliveries were much poorer than I've seen before. They did improve with the substitutions and started to pass the ball a lot more but we made changes to try to nullify that so it didn't last long. I wouldn't be surprised if they've got enough to pick up enough points to stay up, particularly from their home games.
  10. You didn't try the "I have absolutely no interest in it" line? From chat in my office, there was one guy out of 7 of us who watched it.
  11. There's also good interview with him in The Scottish Football Podcast (32 minutes in for those who don't want to listen to them wittering on). https://www.podbean.com/ea/dir-7d2ne-18095d9d
  12. So you hurled in Limerick? At least Barry Ferguson's Hat would have been rooting for you.
  13. I hadn't picked up on that. It's quite a feat for Kilmarnock to be bottom on both goals for and goals against and not actually be bottom of the league.
  14. Botanicalist G&T IPA from Magic Rock Brewing and Masons. I'm not completely sure, I think I like it but probably wouldn't get again.
  15. Really enjoying That's My Bag Baby from Horsforth Brewery. Very nice hazy IPA.
  16. This was the touch I was on about (thanks to well fan for life for posting in the Motherwell thread). OK, it didn’t lead to anything so I can see why I didn't make the highlights package but surely it merited inclusion in the piece on Van Veen afterwards?
  17. I can see why it technically should be a red but it's the softest red card I've seen in a long time. Without VAR is there really much complaint about a yellow card when it looks an unintentional coming together?
  18. If you thought his touch for his goal was filth then it was an absolute travesty they didn't show his touch in the first half when he Cruyff turned the Kilmarnock defender with one touch taking the ball on the drop from Kelly's kick out. I'd love to see footage of it.
  19. Did Kettlewell come in when we were one of four teams on 20 points? Not even three months later and we're on 40.
  20. Ah yes, forgot about that. I've not even started on the beer yet!
  21. St. Johnstone are 4 points behind us so would still be 11th. So, we're safe then?
  22. I thought SOD was on to deal with Jordan Jones who had made a difference. Jones kept dropping deep so SOD followed him up there.
  23. Was that not what they were checking for the red card? Would that not have been a foul to Kilmarnock (I thought it was) and therefore no need to check for offside? I'm assuming they must have decided it wasn't even a foul in the build up, never mind a red card. Either way, it was a farce. Surely, if it's taking that long, it isn't a clear and obvious error.
