this is certainly unexpected. keeps us on our toes anyway with nae games at the moment. i hope brown stays as we're doing well just now and it'd be best not to rock the boat but even if he does go i reckon we'll be ok. brown isn't doing anything startling, just keeping it simple and getting as much as possible out of the players. the last three managers that have came have got off to flyers because we have a strong core of good players with a superb attitude - craigan, reynolds, hammell, lasley, sutton, jenno - and you can be sure they'll react the same way again. if this does happen i'll be disapointed but that'll be far outweighed by the excitement about the trip to sheepland next week. if he does go i'll also be firing a fiver on a motherwell-aberdeen CIS cup final :wank:

someone should tell him he brought five players in during the summer - charalambous, randy, blackman, casagolda and gow - as well as tripling tom hateley's wages.

brown is just a auld haverer, he says what ever is in his head or what he thinks people want to hear eg the "we've no money/we need to get through this round to make a signing/nae money/alan gow" patter in the summer. i don't think he's going anywhere he just likes a wee bit of attention.

it seems like united aren't too interested in getting the game on. they were gagging to call their game off against rangers as well.

i don't know about that. if the ball is out of play by the time ferguson hits weir then it cannae be a free kick. correct decision imo

we'll hopefully take inspiration from 3 years ago today. hearts 1 - motherwell 2. a poor first half performance sees us a goal down at half time. snow starts piling down at half time and seems to inspire the well who are first to every ball after the restart with hughes and mccormack running riot. one of my favourite away days. we went out for a few beers and a chinese in edinburgh after then went home to see ricky hatton getting sparked by mayweather.

the entire third page of this thread is a fail. eddie's joke was funny. muir on tour's was shite.

building a team out of langfield, diamond, considine, ifil, young, mackie and co is bordering on an impossibility. maybe archie fancies being no.1. he apparently does the majority of the work with the players anyway.

if he goes he better take gow with him! no idea why he'd go to aberdeen but if he is then we'll just have to deal with it. it'll make the game up there a week on saturday more interesting anyway. can anyone think of any chants i'm not sure he will go. wee craig clearly likes a bit of attention and he might just be letting miller and milne tickle his belly before politely knocking them back.

why would they think our players need this "education"?

it's so ridiculous it's unreal. they'll probably come in and tell casagolda to phone the polis if archie or craggs look at him the wrong way.

what a load of shite. hopefully mfc tell them to gtf.

the club is one of the few positive things in the town that people take pride in and promotes the area in the uk and even in europe. surely that's reason enough for the council to try and give a bit of support.

that'll be the next cuthbert, grant, mcglinchey, conroy, caddis and ferry then. they can look forward to a long league one career/getting sacked by dundee/playing in the a league after stagnating in the parkhead reserves for 4 years. celtic have won the youth league for umpteen years running and barely brought a player through, every boy that signs for them is a wasted talent for scottish football.

thinking about blackman missing that chance that you know for a fact he would bury now is gutting. the three chances in the first five minutes as well - lasley, humphrey, sutton. some night though.

i've got the friends fare and ticket sorted, let's just hope we get the game played and deliver a nice xmas p45 for mcghee. add in the train from here to town and it'll be under 20 quid for the full trip and the game, cheaper than accies

our domestic season this year runs from the 14th of august to the 21st of may. 40 weeks. if you wanted the season to start on the first saturday in march this year we'd currently be discussing the implications of call offs on the final weekend's fixtures and speculating as to whether we'd be able to get the scottish cup final on or not this weekend (and that's assuming we'd played through the world cup).

do you not think the best thing to do considering we can lose games due to the weather between late november and late march is to have the maximum amount of dates available to get them played?

got to say it was the best team performance i've seen since the well mauled hibs in may 08

richard dawkins has come out in support of hugh dallas funny how the only people with a half decent perspective on this in the media - rod liddle, tom english and now dawkins - aren't scottish. obviously they don't have to live in fear of being hounded by the likes of kearney and having their windows tanned by sellick fans. it's quite funny how far this has spread. it would make for a belter of an episode of south park.

gannon later admitted that the letters were lying unopened in his desk. he was talking complete pish probably 50% inspired by the fact he's an attention seeking sociopath and 50% attempting to concoct an exit strategy out of fir park. he was a world class mope and would no doubt have been staging a joint dirty protest with neil lennon against the establishment right now if he was still up here rather than.... ... what's he up to again these days?

how many people get lifted going to matches at fir park compared to the mega bar? there'll be at least as many cops in glasgow city centre on a saturday night as there is at ibrox and parkhead and they'll be far busier.

they don't shut night clubs when it snows and they require a lot more policing than football matches.
