  1. Sky is showing the 6-6 Hibs game on SPFL Greatest Hits just now. Full game on until 4.30pm - could probably skip the next hour.
  2. Which one?[emoji6] It's pretty obvious where we got our inspiration for the fluorescent yellow one that Capt Oats posted above.
  3. That top instantly makes me think of Ally Mauchlen, Gary Mac and Graeme Forbes - our original 'psycho'.
  4. You had me confused with that one but I live in Glasgow and then remembered everyone else is allowed to do that sort of thing. Is he local anyway or is everyone just going to put 2 and 2 together and decide he's signing even if he's just meeting a few mates for beers?
  5. The detour to the McDonald's on Maryhill Road isn't very scenic! Unfortunately it's going to be in place for ages.
  6. The League Cup game against Queen's Park on Wednesday 14th July is now going to be at Firhill. Really hope we're allowed in for that one.
  7. Queen's Park now playing their games at Firhill.
  8. One thing about Dunne was he seemed to take 3 or 4 weeks back in the team after injury to get his form back. No great surprise really but unfortunately those first few weeks tended to contain a few errors. After that he was really steady.
  9. We said before that we try to stick by injured players running out of contract and we've certainly done the right thing with Dunne. He's now got a 2 year contract with another club - fair play to him and the club I'd say.
  10. Surprised at that but good on him. Thought we'd offer him a deal if he could prove his fitness and expected him to head back down south if he couldn't.
  11. It's a bit odd that Gallagher is there but the likes of Long and Campbell aren't. Is that down to his contract extending to June, presumably as part of the 'gun to his head' negotiations in January?
  12. That's a brave start! Just had a Sapporo for the first time by the fire/bbq. Very impressed. Now on to a ABK Hell with my sausage and pepper. Lovely.
  13. That could just be from the number of has-beens we've brought in on short term deals in January.
  14. Kilmarnock should comfortably win that Championship but we said that before about Dundee United. At least if Dundee won it would bring back the Dundee and Ayrshire derby matches. It might take them 2 or 3 years to regroup but Accies will come back.
  15. There have been crowds at all the games in Scotland the past week although allowing in larger numbers would have been better. I'm surprised the SFA didn't look to host the cup final elsewhere when it was announced that Glasgow was staying in level 3 - pretty much anywhere outside Glasgow would have done for a crowd of 500 or so. Dunfermline for instance.
  16. I think Celtic had the opportunity to mess the club and Turnbull about last summer with a low offer and it's to their credit that they didn't and appear to have behaved in a very professional manner. It was noticeable that both clubs publicly thanked each other for the way they handled things- don't often see that.
  17. Did Gordon go from Hearts? If you're including Edinburgh teams as provincial then there's McGinn to Villa but he's the only one I can think of so your point stands. Sell-on clauses are massive for us, particularly if a player moves to England and his value shoots up.
  18. Is that one of the rides at M&D's when it goes wrong? I take it all the clubs linked with Campbell have nicer places nearby where the players live (St. Anne's for Blackpool), just like most Motherwell players probably don't live in the town.
  19. I saw some scenes from World War Z on the news last night.
  20. Partick Thistle got a guy in today to tape patches of what looks like black bin bags over a couple of adverts on the side of the main stand. I assume they no longer sponsor them. I can't post photos from my phone but, take my word for it, it's extremely tin-pot.
  21. Absolutely. Like that video of the nugget celebrating the Chelsea equaliser that got disallowed. Never mind VAR, what was he doing filming?
