  1. The odds are pretty decent. A score punt on this for me.
  2. A goalkeeper that was screaming to keep his back four organised all night in Edinburgh, something we've not seen since Randolph? Jesus Christ, Megan Fox and Mila Kunis could appear at your door with six bottles of Krug, asking for a threesome and you'd complain because they hadn't brought pizza as well.
  3. McManus is one player I wish Hibs had signed, instead of us all those years ago. The extensions to his contract, anger me more.
  4. Frear wasn't playing as a wing back last night, he was on the left of a midfield four. I like the player but he struggled yesterday. I thought Dunne was impressive. Cedric outshined McMannus by a mile.
  5. Different showing in the second half. Bigi and Cadden were superb. Not sure where Tanner should be placed, but thought that Frear lacked confidence going forward. For me, Rose offered nothing. McLean did not get any service in the first half. Everything went down the left. Yet to be convinced about Fisher, but I have faith.
  6. Dom Thomas reminds me of Adam Coakley and the parallels are scary.
  7. I'm looking forward to going to the Hibs games five minutes from my flat, then a quick dash home afterwards.
  8. I'm in a very privileged position with direct links to those in football, past and present. I'd never breach their confidentiality. I'm sure Sandy will be appalled at this.
  9. The only solace I can find in this game is that well still finish above Dundee and that higher league placement surely brings in a bit more revenue from the SPFL. This summer will be the biggest rebuilding of our squad I can remember.
  10. We should be looking at some of these Falkirk players for next season!
  11. What squad did he have at Oldham? Half a dozen players or something like that? Getting bodies in, Josh Law included, was a tall order. Pretty much a thankless task. We've stopped shipping ridiculous amounts of goals despite two and sometimes three of our first pick defenders not being available. Let's give him the summer to recruit and we'll hopefully see the youth prospects come through as well.
  12. Agree on Griffiths, but remains to be seen what development fee Everton may seek. On a positive, individual errors aside, we've stopped leaking goals in the manner we did against Aberdeen and Dundee. This is the biggest rebuilding job we've probably seen at the club in over a decade. I just hope that a number of the Under Twenties can make the step up next season.
  13. I take it Lee Lucas is either injured or so far out the picture he's abroad?
  14. Any streams for this? I'm off to work now. Gutted to be missing this.
  15. Actually ICT should be three up. Hamilton defence makes ours look like Juventus.
  16. ICT one up against Hamilton. We can't win. This is giving me the fear.
  17. Frank always told me he was a joiner now.
  18. Maybe it is because I'm watching players similar to my age coming to the end of their careers and the fact that I watched so many young talents over the last two decades, but I really hope we have youth as a primary vision. Some of our recruitment under the last three managers has been woeful. Recently, we've seen Clay and Lucas keep Campbell out of the team. I'd like to think that he and fellow youngsters Hastie, Turnbull and Gordon gain more first team minutes soon. Hopefully McLean will return next season and replace the likely departing Ainsworth. Will Mackin gain a new contract and is he a better option than Blyth? The goalkeeper and defensive positions need the most attention. Plenty of names being mentioned for both and it remains to be seen whether Jules has a future at the club. I'm hopeful of a fighting end to our season and very happy that Robinson, not McGee, Barraclough or McCall will be rebuilding the squad though.
  19. I remember some years ago Frank McGarvey walking into the restaurant I worked in to ask the owner, who he had known for years, for the bus fare hone as he had done all his money in the bookies! Him bringing his daughter in for dinner, as he knew my boss wouldn't ask him for money, was not an irregular occurrence.
  20. Am I right in suggesting that Erwin is only contracted to Leeds until June 2018?
  21. John Davies. Shocking signing on all sorts of levels.
