  1. Anyone able to put me back in a medically induced coma for another 10 weeks? Cheers
  2. Yeah but in 1994 we also went toe-to-toe with Borussia Dortmund. I sometimes watch that game on youtube and get annoyed at how close we came over there.
  3. Any chance you could go to Aberdeen for that pint
  4. You don’t need a ball winning midfielder when the instruction is to play the crossbar challenge from anywhere near the halfway line.
  5. Overreaction by ref but welcome to the Charles Dunne debut club
  6. Full backs were suspect at Ibrox and again here. Lessons not learned
  7. I think both our wingbacks need “rested” at half time
  8. Game is showing as available on hesgoal.com
  9. All this has proven is we can't get consistency in a single game let alone a season. 2017-18 2 cup finals, then Aug to Dec 2018 shitshow, 2019 Jan to May decent, 2019 Aug to Dec decent, Jan 2020 till now shitshow, it would be nice if we could get the decent stuff in a season rather than calendar year
  10. Pied due to objections I understand (floodlights at night and traffic were main concerns)
  11. We're trying to emulate the Andy Robertson phenomenon and cut out Queens Park
  12. Main looked the part for 6 months, in fact I can recall turning to my mate at Hampden and saying "Louis who?"
  13. I asked if anyone would take him rather than if it was possible.
  14. Would anyone have Templeton? Accies and Burton Albion are probably not where he expected his career would take him. 31 too.
  15. Seems its 1m in the hippy and 500k made up of appearances and other kickbacks which is far from guaranteed. Scott looks likely to massively increase his wages and I hope some of the income comes back in to increase the wages of someone like Allan Campbell who has been a mainstay, consistent and maybe feeling it seeing his peers leave for decent salary rises. I sincerely hope the 500k isn't part of a sell on clause, that should be a separate entity I hope but know nothing of contracts these days.
  16. No fully representative as some teams (Aberdeen for example) have had 4 bites of the cherry per season over us and Accies, etc.Killie's record is impressive however, only makes you hope Steve Clarke can instil the same mindset when we play teams ranked higher above us (which is most of UEFA)
  17. And you're basing that on what? Your gut?
  18. Is 26 goals and a substantial sell on worth 100k? The only reason I can see why we didn't go after him if it created dressing room upheaval.
  19. Hindsight and wishful thinking but Lawrence Shankland would have been a worthy addition in the summer. Not only for his goals tally but Dundee Utd look on course to make a nice wee bit of profit going on the hack chatter. I don't think he would have scored as many as he has so far due to the league being a step up, but I do think he'd be on course to be in Higgy territory. Too many on here were too keen to come out the with the cliched "He's a Championship player at best", "he'll be out his depth and will get found out soon enough", and "he can't do it for us" almost taking glee in our perceived superiority.
  20. For us to beat them they have to be below par and we have to be humming like a well oiled machine. Despite getting 9 from 9 in a week we haven't set the heather alight in terms of performance if we have for those looking at the results only.
  21. There is no chance morelos will get through two games in the week ahead without a red card. On an aisde, anyone know why the goalmouths at Hampden were well worn? Queens Park have moved out, two semi's and Scotland games before today.
  22. If you show up looking like a rugby second row then you get the benefit of the doubt I guess.
  23. The fact you are using percentages of turnover/income as an amount used by any company as a figure for their compensation settlement for any employee. Good job you weren't negotiating £3.25m for Turnbull. "Actually we need an extra 250k as that makes it approximately 60% of our annual turnover (depending on the year)" Who uses fractions or percentages as a means to negotiate? He signed a new deal only a wee while back and the £130k muted that he can walk for seems to only account for his basic salary, no bonus', no hassle factor in finding a replacement, no compensation to make up for what he has endeavoured to build. All I was conveying is someone so intrinsic to the running and success of the club has seemingly been protected worse than a 16 year old youth player and that seems mental/an oversight/demanded by him (*delete as appropriate).
