Nope, I’m an idiot.

Same as always, 3 pts. for perfect, 1 pt. for result: Airdrie 2-1 Stranraer Dumbarton 3-2 Clyde Falkirk 1-2 East Fife Forfar 0-2 Raith Rovers Montrose 1-1 Peterhead

Safe for now, McCall to Patrick being reported.

That the ex-Rovers U20 Kyle Bell? What’s he done in, a knee?

Number One rule in here is never eat anything colored brown or yellow that you didn’t buy and keep in your possession. Kinda like visiting Methil... BTW, sorry about your Loco being out front on blocks still...the neighborhood hasn’t been the same since Falkirk moved in.

But, as noted above, the chaos at Patrick is likely to turn a currently successful manager off. If Lennon thought it was too iffy to take, why would Young take a flier with his season shaping well for now?

Stevo, you don’t recognize the movie quote? How disappointing, I assumed an erudite gentleman like yourself would know “Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome”!

Let's put him and Stevo in the greenhouse...two men enter...

If he helps get us up, I doubt many of us will care if he moves on to better things. He shouldn't be at this level anyway. If he helps us get up, I’d not be surprised if we had him at least the first half as other teams looked to see how he played at the new level. With a move up and failure to hold that level, they might be a bit more cautious about snapping him up...but I’m concerned about the Jan window still.

The “joint” portion explains the problems with math.

Gordon EF with an 8 for the win. Perfect on two games, and correct result on two more! 15 entries, besides the winner, 2 w/5, 2 w/4, 2 w/3, 5 w/2, 3 w/1 (including me...)

...and move that damn Loco double parked outside! Careful heading to the shed out back, there’s some Falkirk types creeping around!

Just finishing up at the Tesco, be over shortly....perhaps...

Christ, anything like that and we got real keeper woes...anyone know who the emergency keeper would be this year?

Vaughan is reported to have a hamstring issue...probably minor, but unknown. Heard Munro was stretchered off, anyone know what/where injured?

Nah, already scarfed plenty, and got more coming...want some?

I bring my own crisps and Orange Clubs...can’t stand the Penguins! Now where are the Carr’s Cheddars?

Appreciate the nice thoughts, but will try to get mental now and then, if you insist. Got time on me hands due to conditions, trying to keep up, and too stupid to keep my mouth shut. Can verify I’m certainly not Frank, but I will be frank when I comment. Appreciate the feeling of being welcomed to discussions, as long as one is reasonable and not too impolite...generally. Nice forum compared to the SEC Football threads here in the States.

Certainly agree with you there, but again, I doubt they signed him for a packet of chips and some lint. Looks like a pretty clear sign that the BoD feel this season is worth pushing some chips in.

Not too much, so I’m not overly bothered at a delay to his return, for now. As for a paper, the Leven Loudmouth? Circulation 500...paid circulation 50.

Potentially a very nice signing, and certainly a sign that Dugan is further away from return than was believed, in my opinion. Certainly suggests the Board at EF is all in for this season, as I doubt this was a budget signing.

Absolutely!

Airdrie 1-3 Raith East Fife 2-1 Dumbarton Forfar 0-0 Montrose Peterhead 1-3 Clyde Stranraer 1-0 Falkirk

You realize, Stevo, its gonna be like one of those cheap 80’s-90’s slasher flicks. One day you’ll close a door in there and Frank will be behind it in a hockey mask with a knife. Enjoy your rest.

Interesting report on when to use your substitutes. https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/down-at-halftime-in-a-soccer-game-use-your-subs/
