Motherwell thread collectively nods and winks at “dog walking”.

I genuinely meant dog walking

If I wanted to know about "dogging" in Strathclyde Country Park I'd have posted on the Hamilton Thread

Does anybody know how Liam Grimshaw has managed to sneak into a Wrexham legends XI in America?

I don't know but I respect the hell out of it. Seen the winning team wins *Dr Evil* one million dollars. Maybe he's eyeing up a lovely new gaff in Gourock.

Grimmy's pivot to writing/blogging is #content that, I'll be honest, caught me by surprise.

Wonder if he still does his clothing line, I bought a T shirt from him.

I bought two of #DC44's tshirts, one was amazing and the other was made of tracing paper and fell to bits in the washing machine.

Sounds a bit like what you'd expect from a King Louis clothing line really.

Nothing sums Grimmy up more than playing in a 7-a-side tournament where his team are winning games 12-0, 7-0...and he still hasn't scored 🤣

I listened to the Sportsound "podcast" (it was just normal Sportsound recorded from the minute the game finished IIRC) later that week and St Mirren's Chick Young went on a deliciously bitter rant about the fact we were celebrating it "like we'd won something" - his opinion was that we should have been shame faced about being in the playoff in the first place and should have slunk off the pitch afterwards.

Then - as now - I genuinely wondered how someone could make a living writing and broadcasting about Scottish football with so little insight into how it actually works. Then I remembered that he was just a massive, hurting *** and listened to it again.

I still find it utterly amazing that whilst being at an ‘Open all mics’ League Cup game involving Falkirk and Morton that went to penalties, the bold Chico confidently announced on air that the game finished 4-4 on penalties. I mean what the actual f**k!

This is daft - how did we manage to get nearly half a million out of the Sligo fiasco?

Royalties for re-runs on the comedy channel obvs pay far more than I thought, I'd have expected a half mill fine for those performances rather than a reward.

Maybe GA knew what he was doing and bargained that £500k at the expense of a Euro humbling would earn enough to get his payoff and the hell out of dodge as his increasingly toxic reign was clearly up. So with him binned the embarrassment was worth, except we picked Hammell next.... but we got there in the end.

From memory it’s about €350k Euros per tie plus you get money from UEFA for travelling expenses.

I get the table shows prize money but that £478k would probably be total awarded by UEFA.

Just annoying as that winnable two legged tie and Raith in the Scottish Cup would have been an extra +£1m (cumulative with gate revenue) in the hippy.
