    Apparently the teacher said he’d never do anything with his life.

    Needless to say, TM had the last laugh 🤭 🍺

    That's the ultimate proving someone wrong. I don't personally feel the need to start a pub chain to achieve that goal as I I've been in a position to take advantage of the ample opportunity to prove the folk on these boards wrong, so that'll do for me.

    I think they are, yeah. Everyone else still has a game or two I think. The Danish league and the Saudi league both seem to go till the end of May, with games on the 26th, 27th.

    I put the list below for all the players called up in the last 12 months to now. The guys who are finished, those who finish next week and the ones that finish the week after that.

    Obviously not all the Championship players will reach the play-off final.

    I wonder if there's any chance at all of Quansah being tempted? Seems a good big player and an upgrade on our current central defenders

    Wishful thinking. Ask yourself if you would commit to Northern Ireland, Wales or the Republic of Ireland if you had played for Scotland at underage levels, were at a good club and only 21 years old and you'll have your answer. If he was inclined to play for Scotland he wouldn't have played for the England underage levels and so it will only be a backup for him if his career doesn't pan out as planned.  

  4. I watched the last ten minutes of his game tonight. He was up against Yamal against whom he made a goal saving challenge. His passing was up to his usual high standard. Love watching this guy play football. He moved well on the pitch and pleased he got the chance to play in the Nou Camp tonight. Sociedad have three games left of the season. 

  5. Haven't seen anyone mention it, but Scott McKenna and Max Johnston are both in good positions to finish their respective club seasons with winners medals as both Copenhagen and Sturm Graz top their respective leagues. Hopefully they can both achieve that.

  6. Kieran Tierney is on the bench for Real Sociedad tonight so that's positive in so far as he is not ruled out even if he isn't capable of starting or isn't first choice - however you want to interpret that. If he gets any time on the pitch it will be a good thing, but even if he doesn't it's a step in the right direction.

  7. Ross Stewart and Che Adams update from before the weekend. Obviously Adams didn't make it for the game while Ross Stewart did.

    Che Adams

    It was more precaution than anything, so we have to manage him (Adams) through this week a little bit. We'll still manage him through the next couple of days, and then hopefully he'll be ready to impact us on the pitch on Sunday. 

    Ross Stewart

    It's been great (to have Stewart in training) He looks really good, he's ready to play, make an impact and have more minutes for sure over the next couple of games. It's been a really important week for Ross to get on the pitch. He played really well when he came on. He looks in great shape. It's just match minutes that he lacks, he's not missing training time because he's been training with us for a while. He's constantly prodding, he wants to play, he constantly reminds us of that, he wants to play, and he wants to impact us. I'm pretty sure over the next couple of games he'll have a big impact.

  8. Yes, well as I said previously I've engaged in all that kind of behaviour previously. I don't have any interest in it anymore and it's up to you if you don't believe that. I was simply trying to contribute to the discussion as I have an understanding around it. I'm not hiding anything.

    I "won the day" around two years ago (Mar-22) so that'll be a good gauge as to when I was up to all that. @TheGreenElves keeps a close eye on me too I've noticed.

    I remember someone posting that there were three on the go at once at one point, all leaving red dots on the same posts and making no contribution themselves  :huh:

    What's even stranger is when someone points out that an account that was set up ten years ago or more, with 0 posts made, suddenly starts leaving dots everywhere. Presumably some people have a library of accounts they can switch to once they get punted. Beats me what they get out of it, though. Just the satisfaction that someone has noticed them?

    The satisfaction comes from destroying the reputation score of their target. It's well observed that red and green dots are taken seriously and personally. It's therefore an effective way of getting even. Ghost accounts allow you to strike with anonymity and without any retribution as you haven't any posts to be dotted. 

    If your score was destroyed to the point where it was down to a percentage of what it is now you wouldn't be happy if you take pride in your score (equally daft). That's the basic reason according to me. The phenomenon of creating ghost accounts to green dot your own account is the lesser known, but more interesting case.

    You are such an attention seeking walloper which is a shame and is quite sad, as some of your in depth analysis on the Scotland national team part of the forum is quite decent.

    If that's what you believe and I don't doubt it, then why would you keep giving me attention? I would have thought the best approach would be to ignore.

    Is R9yan Fraser still in Clarkes thoughts?

    I thought Clarke was pissed off with him as he withdrew from Scotland squad but then played the next day??

    Nah, that's all been put to bed mate. It's ancient history. They kissed and made up.

    It looks bad for Sky Sports coverage.

    Either Miller is so biased he can't be objective or he is a fuccking moron.

    Either way why should viewers pay to listen to such shite punditry. Pundits are meant to add to the viewing experience and point out things you may not notice. If this is not happening viewers are being short changed and what is the ppint of the likes of Miller drawing a wage if they are so poor at their job

    He's representing one side. It's more like a political debate. I agree with your view on how it should be, but it not been that way for a while.

    I did look at the comments on Rangers media last night.

    All joking aside, the level of hatred of their players coming from some fans is ridiculous.

    Any other fans (outside the cheeks') would be happy to have their level of success.

    They are incapable of accepting their currant (sic) position on the football scene.

    Me too, its been sublime reading. There is a discussion about losing their place as the most successful Scottish team domestically. 

    I didn't realise that if you add all the honours together and compare then Celtic are only 1 behind. With a Scottish Cup on the horizon there is a lot of pressure on big Phil to win. 

  14. I'd like to echo Callum McGregor's view here. I think Ranger's simply couldn't live with how slick Celtic were yesterday. Ranger's would have probably benefitted more from a bumpy pitch as they looked to go route one into Desser's, play less on the deck and play for scraps.

    Quote

    Celtic captain Callum McGregor has hailed the work of the Parkhead groundkeepers for ensuring the ‘amazing’ pitch enabled them to play ‘slicker’ football against Rangers.

     

  15. Thought I'd pop my head in. Strong finish to the season. Well done.

    Maybe better to finish in the bottom-6 and actually win a game after the split next year - makes you question what was the whole point of it all. Back to square one next season with your current loan army departing and the next bunch coming in.

    Thank you.

    Is Liam Palmer an option at right back? Still doing a job for Wednesday in the Championship, and didn't let Scotland down before.

    Not as bad a shout as it may seem at first. Anything's possible really - that would be a surprise though. He was okay for Scotland.

    James Forrest, Stephen O'Donnell and Liam Palmer - it's all getting a bit back to the future.
