  1. Not holding my breath, we're not really that sort of club. Would be lucky to see a wee blip if we signed Lionel Messi.
  2. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. Not in the pudding.
  3. Well, yes and no. I know we're not a charity, but given our associations with various community organisations, would also be nice to think we did what we could to help former players who've landed on hard times, especially one of the few still walking this earth who've helped to bring us a trophy. But that certainly doesn't extend to offering them jobs they're not qualified for!
  4. I wonder if there'll ever come a day when I can hear anything about them without thinking "Who are they? Exackly!"
  5. Because now he has a decent amount of first team experience in the SPFL, rather than struggling to get a game for Birmingham's youth sides?
  6. Probably would have been, but sounds like staying nearer home is more important to him than the level of football he's playing. Wouldn't be everyone's choice, but If that's how he wants to see out the last few years of his playing career then fair enough.
  7. Presumably meant to reminiscent of the Pony 94/95 top in particular, given the text in the photo. Can't say I've really liked pinstripes on a football shirt since the '82 Scotland away kit, though.
  8. I dunno, if I could make as much in four years as he probably did at Leeds for doing next to nothing, I'd be well up for it.
  9. As always, staying out of relegation bother and a half-decent run in a cup will do me. (Which, after last season, would also be a considerable improvement, and that's all you can really ask for from one season to the next.)
  10. Hmm. Certainly not one of *my* personal favourites, if it is

    Mfc Podcast

    That's another advantage of using a podcast app to listen -- if you set it up to automatically download episodes when they're released, it doesn't matter how long the server keeps them in the feed as you've already got a local copy to listen to. (Particularly useful for BBC podcasts, which often delete the last episode from the feed whenever a new one comes out.)

    Mfc Podcast

    Dunno if there's a way in Soundcloud, but if you subscribe to the podcast in a proper podcast app you can download and pause/resume as you please. There are a few good paid apps if you're serious about your podcasts, but you can just use the built-in Podcasts app on iOS--typing or pasting http://bytheminmfc.libsyn.com/rss1 into the "Search my Podcasts" box will subscribe you. Then you can download individual episodes by tapping the cloud icon beside the episode on the "Unplayed" or "Feed" tab. Whether you download or just stream an episode, though, it will still remember your playback position when you come back to it later.
  13. Don't have cup figures handy, but in the league, Dougie scored 59 in 240 appearances, Sutton scored 66 in 174. (According to Wikipedia.)
  14. Do we have any evidence that he'd be a good coach? Folk with that amount of natural ability often aren't.
  15. It's a 'naw' from me. Even if he has one more good full season in him, which I doubt, he's taken his well-deserved bow at Fir Park and we need to look to the future now.
  16. He can stay as far as I'm concerned... I'd say we got the better end of the deal when he left.

    But significantly more peanuts than any other player we've sold in the past 10 years.
  18. All true, but we're not talking about a transfer fee here, and the player won't be getting a cut.

    Lee Erwin

    A bit, he has plenty of unfulfilled potential but we'll be happy with the half mil development fee we'll be due.
  20. As far as the strips go, Pantone use a different colour system for textile dyes than for print though, don't they?
  21. I'd take him, but I couldn't give less of a crap how anything we do goes down at Ibrox.
  22. I dunno. Confess I wasn't surprised when I thought he'd been given a red, but on the other hand I've seen harder shoves when folk are just waiting on a corner or a free kick coming into the box, and you never see anyone get a straight red for that.
  23. If we decided players' future based on the professionalism of their tweets, Cummins would've been gone years ago!
  24. Call me a miserable git, but nah. Unless we'd also have released one had we beaten Queen of the South 1-0 in the playoff, it would just smack of GIRUY because of who we beat, and that's the sort of marketing best left the the OF themselves. Then again, I've already got HD downloads of both games
