    Jack Ross. The worst of them all. Gets sacked from Hearts for texting numerous players wives. Goes to Alloa, gets a big head. And ever since literally applies for every single job going. Even applying for a job in England 3 days after joining Dundee United. he's a massive bellend with zero management skills.

    If he was active in Scottish fitba then he'd definitely be on my list.  An absolute clown.

    The only way McBurnie is on that plane is if he retrains as a pilot, and there's surely not enough time for that between now and the summer. 

    I think even if that happened and McBurnie piloted the plane, despite some promising test flights at low altitude around the Sheffield area he'd fall disappointingly short for Scotland and miss his destination, landing in Belgium by mistake.

    Hard to think of anyone worse than Goodwillie.  
    Douglas Ross. 
    Derek Adams.

    Craig Levein. 
    Steven Naismith.
    David Martindale. 

    Kris Boyd is a tadger but he’s the epitome of empty vessels make the most noise. His wind up gimmick is so transparent. 
    Ewen Murray.

    John Beaton.
    Nick Walsh.

     

     

    A lot of folk on Twitter give the Sky golf commentator pelters when Ewan Murray (the "journalist") has written a shite article, and moan to the latter about the golf, which winds him up no end. A wee shame for both Murrays.

    I wouldn't go as far as that, but Tam to a degree very much thinks in terms of the 50s-70s both in music, comedy and what is acceptable..

     

    Which is unfortunate because he does seem like a nice guy and can be pretty witty 

    Not sure Marvin Bartley and Eilidh Barbour would agree with that.

    Yes. It was a straight forward and honest interview from what I heard. It's just fans from other teams and the media creating something out of nothing here obviously. I like his style.

    In last night's interview having just been pumped 3-0 at home by a team in the league below, he threw his players under a bus ("they've all had a chance") and admitted he maybe shouldn't have taken his job and hadn't done his homework. It's "honest" I suppose but at the same time it makes him look like an absolute trumpet who is unwilling to take responsibility for his team being an utter shambles.  His style is that of a man who is much, much thicker than he thinks he is.

    6 birdies and 5 bogeys for Bob in Round 1 of the Amex, he was playing at La Quinta was is supposedly the easier of the 3 courses. For comparison 7 of the leading 13 who are -8 or better were playing there.

    Yeah, not great at all on the easiest course as you say.  Making the cut looks pretty unlikely this week.  Hopefully Bob can get some momentum going with better first rounds in upcoming events.  Still finding his feet so far (although he did OK last week). Bit surprised he didn't play Dubai this week but maybe he couldn't be arsed with the flights.

    Aye but then you won the league and ended up assembling a highly entertaining squad that got to a playoff final and narrowly lost on penalties. I’d take that over what we’ve been served up since he left any day of the week. 

    We did that by spending beyond our means under our idiot megalomaniac ex-chairman, and getting lucky when Doolan came in and got the team to kick on when things had been drifting badly under McCall (who to be fair to him had a long injury list). We just squeezed into the final playoff spot on GD before the playoff chaos. 

    McCall seems like a decent guy and is an interesting character, so I hope he doesn't end his managerial days at Clyde. I suppose if he did come back to you he'd quite likely keep you up - and if you went down, he'd probably get you back up out of L1. Would he be welcomed back though?

    Based on what I have seen this season, the entire Partick Thistle team

    We've been dreadful against your lot and I'd possibly pick our goalie in this XI - but we're third in the table, so our entire team quite clearly aren't the worst in the league, unless you mean that Doolan is a genius manager for getting an entire team of worst players to 3rd?

    Handicap has gone from 5 up to 9 over the last two seasons, all down to my putting dropping off a cliff. Target for the year is to get back to around 7. This will involve loads of putting practice inside 6ft. 

    Good luck - practice is obviously the way to go if you have the time. I know it's the workman and not the tool but do you switch putters much? I find that can help if you're having a bad spell on the greens, especially going from blade to mallet or vice versa.  And a properly fit putter makes a difference too.

    I am the opposite from you in general - driving is my big issue and can be wild; my good scores are on days I keep it in play.  Chipping and putting are generally what rescue me!

  10. What are we all looking forward to or aiming to achieve this golfing year?

    For me, it's getting more golf (had back trouble last year and barely played after June), and maybe turning around the slow increase in my handicap (drifted up to 11.1, would love to get back to 9 or lower if I can get the golf in).

    Would also love to get a ticket to watch the Open at Troon, but no idea how likely that is. Boo to the advance ballot and to the R&A in general.
