Steelmen

you can guess this will be the first friendly that Scotland have recently that isn't full of Utd players. Watch for the hump and murphy getting a call.

love it Since then he has went fron stregth to strenght and already this season has surpassed a club record of clean sheets of 16 against celtic in a match that he completely stunned the unwashed celtic fans with a string of outstanding saves.

just read the statement, WOW giving the club away for free.... what about Fir Park?

a cracking find and on a 3 year deal too. Does it really matter who the better keeper is? Randolf is the one we have just now and he is a cracking keeper. Give Ruddy his due, Norwich are having a great season in the Championship so he is doing alright down there. Although the twice i have saw them Ruddy has had a mare.

going to be interesting when he scores and no one cheers for him, or are we going to have the usual well fans cry the players for everything and then go mad when they score... give the laddie a chance, he's nearly our player at least lets see him play before making a judgement.

just read the updated page, they have agreed to have more detailed plans drawn up not really agreed we will have 10 teams Broad support was given to progressing a 10-team Premiership and a 12-team Championship at the top of a pyramid for Scottish football as the preferred option. "The SPL clubs have asked the executive team to further develop aspects of these proposals and to update the Strategic Review Group's report." So reading that are they just going to waste more time and money on writing reports?

Suppose it has just saved me some cash. Why do we bother.

He went on loan to someone not long after the European game. looked a prospect in that game and i was surprised they let him go. Lee

Is this for real? or has someone on here set it up? If it is for real he can F*ck off. But his agent, Jonathan Hope, is adamant the former FC Brussels hitman is better suited to League Two and has offered to buy Casagolda out of his one-year contract to grease the wheels of any potential deal. That one statement says it all, can't hack it in a bigger league. cracker of a name, but won't be missed.

We need expansion not reduction and a more even split of the money but with a 11-1 to one voting system it is never going to happen. Fans have to vote with their money. Stop going to games in our masses and they will get the picture, quickly. My money is on a 18 team top league, 22 team second division (or SPL 2 if you fancy) and then regional leagues below that incorperating junior teams with the chance to get into the big leagues. I suppose you can fling reserve teams in here, if it is good enough for Spain it is good enough for us. Will there be meaningless games? sure but i am sure Hamilton, St Mirren etc will bite your hands off for a meaningless game right now. With Derby games only coming twice a season their will more excitement generated by them, and as my father in law pointed out it will encourage more people back to football (depending on the price) because it is more of an event since it is your 1 trip to inverness, aberdeen this season. The relegation system needs to be like other countries too. 3 teams down, 2 stright up with the next 4 in a play off system. The quaility will improve (can't get much worse for some) because once you are safe you will play with a bit more freedom and dare i say it blood the youngsters that are performing well in the reserves/U19's. This works for other leagues extremely well and could work for us, but the old firm need to start sharing out the cash. just my thoughts. Lee

seriously i have had enough of this. Get it onto Judge Judy and she will knock it out in 30 mins. only problem is the max we can get it $5000

Lennon has taken it a bit far.. ok really far but these guys deserve a hell of a lot flak. the standard of referees in this country (england and scotland) is shocking. They are getting basic decisions wrong every weekend. i think the assistants (linesmen) deserve the majority of it because they do nothing to help the ref even when they have the best view. just my thoughts.

picking a plot for his new mansion????

I'll take anyone at home or Falkirk away cause it's close to the house.

the coverage is shocking, not even live text updates. and we thought the coverage during the Euro run was bad.

It's tough not to get carried away by thoughts of getting through, not going to get much sleep tonight!!!!

might need to get used to this, we get the group stages and this is what we will play like on a Sunday. If we get 3 points each time, no complaints from me. Now the game is over and done with.... BRING ON THURSDAY!!!!

what a fucking goal!!!!!

that's next week screwed now too stupid tackle

they have been much better in the second half, we really need a goal now

just imagine if it was given against you.. you would be raging.

am i the only one who thinks the "handball" wasn't a pen? apart from the ref.... his arm shouldn't have been there but couldn't get out the way. looked ball to hand

i couldn't get iraq goals to work so i am on this one atd

don't know who to take off but forbes on the left and the hump to the right hand side, he just isn't working on the left. Decent performance so far, should have scored from murphy in the first minute and then if the hump had shot when lasley got it back to him. Dodgy goal to lose but we are still in this game Lee

1. Motherwell along with Europa league, Scottish Cup and beaten CIS cup finalist (casagolda was injured for the game) 1. Celtic They have bought the title this year, with rangers in CL they should walk it. 2. Rangers They will struggle to keep up esp with CL. If injuries hit they won't finish 2nd 3. Hibs Great attacking options dodgy manager. should have enough goals in them 4. Motherwell Solid team, manager that knows how to win. If we get into Euro groups we won't be in top 6. 5. Dundee Utd curse of 3th place and houston will be found out as an assitant not a manager. 6. St Johnstone fancy them to have a good season if they can keep their manager. ------------------ 7. Hearts Romanov will get involved and Jefferies will be out the door. somehow 8. Inverness Butcher will make them tough to beat and ritchie is gonna get you. 9. Aberdeen Piss poor team, only got worse. esp if Hartley doesn't deliver 10. Hamilton Lost their best players and going to struggle 11. Kilmarnock bad team, bad manager, going to be a country mile behind hamilton 12. St Mirren Buy 2nd division players you know where your heading.
