Guest Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Can we bring in 2 Lon players from the same team though? Never thought about that but Hibs have Henderson and Stokes from Septic so I guess you can 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Not in the slightest, getting beat in the semi is far, far easier to deal with than getting beat in a final. As for Europe The biggest game the clubs played in against each other you could not get a shot at the goal all day. Now f**k off 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris. Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 Supporting Scotland is shite enough at the best of times without giving bang average players caps just for the sake of it. That Scotland squad is full of bang average players, they could do with having a player like Arfield in there to learn from IMO. As this photo shows, he's a winner. And our national side could do with more of those. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris. Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 Incidentally, whilst enjoying searching for images of Arfield, I came across this: I'd completely forgotten him lamping Olejnik during a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggerG Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Supporting Scotland is shite enough at the best of times without giving bang average players caps just for the sake of it. Scott Arfield's an exceptionally good player. Not the best to come out of the academy by any means but very good nonetheless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Nederlander Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) I didn't know he'd twatted Boaby. Is that the game Boaby went totally Tonto at Arfield in for no apparent reason ?

Ranaldo Bairn Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 The only exciting happening in a 0-0 draw with Aberdeen apart from a shocking Finnbogasson miss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris. Posted February 22, 2016 Author Share Posted February 22, 2016 At the time I couldn't decide if it was a bad miss or a great save. Perhaps a bit of both. His record since leaving us has been pretty good, albeit it in the Danish second tier & the Icelandic top flight. IIRC he was utterly hopeless in the air despite being over 6ft. Think his only contributions was a consolation goal at Dundee United on his debut and an assist (with a header!) away to St Johnstone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think his only contributions was a consolation goal at Dundee United on his debut and an assist (with a header!) away to St Johnstone. I kept waiting on Finbog going on a run of scoring, he got into some positions and had plenty of one on ones but seemed to always hit the goalie, I had ok this week he will score and that will be him on my mind each week..... As for Arfield, holding his own in a league of multi million pound players versus players that are holding their own against failed English lower league players in Scotland, goals he has scored and still scoring are simply outstanding. He has went up a level since moving down south, something the most of the current Scotland players can only dream about 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Was that the game that Marceta came on and beat one player, with half the stand then pishing their frillies thinking he was the new Moravcik?

HoBNob Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 The biggest game the clubs played in against each other you could not get a shot at the goal all day. Now f**k offAnd all it gained you was a pumping of some Liechtenstein team and more heartbreak in a cup final, gutted for you.As for Arfield, holding his own in a league of multi million pound players versus players that are holding their own against failed English lower league players in Scotland, goals he has scored and still scoring are simply outstanding. He has went up a level since moving down south, something the most of the current Scotland players can only dream about He is a good championship player, I've never tried to claim otherwise. In Sean Dyche Burnley have a manager who's capable of moulding a team who's better than the sum of it's parts(The exact type of manager Scotland need) and that suits Arfield, he isn't any better than any of the players in the squad though and at 27 he wouldn't improve to help the squad in the future. McGinn might. Bryson was similar, was doing great in the championship, had plenty of people calling for a cap(Every Kilmarnock fan) and he was absolutely atrocious. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must've missed Bryson doing it in the English premier league....I think you should stick to the whelks an such in the seaside leagues and worry about another loss in the balance sheets albeit this loss may have a positive twist 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
