A great effort from Georgia making sure that those of us racing home from work will see the majority of the game

Arthurlie 3-1 Kirkintilloch Rob Roy 3 penalties and a red card as Arthurlie ran out deserved winners at Dunterlie Park. It all started with an Arthurlie goal from the spot on 22 minutes followed by them being reduced to 10 men from the resulting kick-off. Rob Roy got level just before HT but didn’t really make their extra man count. A well worked goal and another penalty in the second half sealed the points for the home side. Rob Roy missed from the spot with only a few minutes to go. Match Ticket: £7 Steak Pie: £2.30 Train Return Ticket: £4.20

Aye it’s been beat to death a bit now. Will renew out of habit, hopefully I’m not paying £375 for championship football…

Lazio 2-1 Juventus A truly unique and amazing experience watching Lazio from the Curva Nord as they ran out 2-1 winners against Juventus. Over 50,000 in attendance, including around 9,000 Juve fans who made the journey down from Turin. €5 for a beer inside the ground, don’t even have to leave your seat as there are people walking up and down selling them for the full 90 minutes.

Sampdoria 3-1 Hellas Verona 20th vs 18th in Italy as Sampdoria claimed their first home win in Serie A this season. A Big friendship exists between the clubs so went along to Via del Piano for a joint party both before and after the match. Only €2.50 for a bottle of moretti.

Thoughts with that one boy who absolutely hates Van Veen for some reason

Pollok 6-2 Kirkintilloch Rob Roy Not exactly random as Kirkintilloch is actually my hometown. However it’s very rare I’ve had the chance to see them play since their ‘temporary’ move to Cumbernauld. Pollok 4-1 up at Half-Time and unlucky not to get a 7th in the final minute of the game. Rob Roy had a little bit of momentum after pulling one back early in the second half but the result was never in doubt. Match ticket: £9 Return train ticket: £2.60 Pie and Coke: £2.70 Day out cost: £14.30

Van Veen / Obika partnership is going to fire us to Europe

I have concluded that signing players who are actually fit to play is generally a good thing.

My new football pet peeve is a manager coming in, getting a positive result and folk giving it “he comes across well… says all the right things” Folk said it about Hammell then slaughtered him post-match as soon as we hit a bad spell. Kettlewell will be no different.

Ian Holloway / KVV reunion

The rest of Scottish football should be utterly ashamed if we manage to stay up this year.

This has to happen.

Granted it’s just rumours, but from what I’ve heard from Aberdeen fans about him falling out with certain players, arrogance etc, he’d get on great with a squad that just loves to down tools to get someone the sack.

Had one at Fir Park when they were first introduced years ago. Vowed never again. Might try one at Stark’s park next season…
