  1. Is leith moving from Edinburgh?.
  2. Other than job title do not see much change.The C.O.O. is responsible for the day to day running of a Company much like a General Manager. Reporting lines may differ though.
  3. You will be expecting that same realism on this forum next
  4. Can't win can we. give players a 1 year contract and it's a wtf. give them 2 /3 year contracts and they don't progress and the comment will be why did we give them an extended contract".
  5. I was about to boast and raise the betting to 50% too late 60% mentioned. I have vague memories of League cup final vs Hibs 1950 I think more vivid memories for obvious reasons of the 52 final vs Dundee. Dalziel High schoolboy aged 14 in the specially reserved stand enclosure. If I had to name a favourite amongst all the talent over the the years for me it would be Charlie Aitken a very talented and graceful Wing Half very often played out of position at Inside Forward. If the last part is confusing to posters ask your dad!
  6. Very few if any. If Sbragia is an example the coaches the Sfa appoint rarely recognise skill and talent.
  7. Obviously you have more up to date information than me. Didn't realise he was being freed!.
  8. Depending on fitness I would like to see Laing given a run to the end of season at fb. In his limited time there I thought he had potential to develop further. Pearson I doubt will be ready. I would hope that some of the young midfielders are given a chance at least from the bench. Not knowing the plans for Ripley and i would expect now that our future is more secure discussions are taking place, there could be an case for giving Samson a chance before the season end.
  9. Simple solution. Write into the contract that when we free them they can't play for any other team. It would also halve the posts on here.

    Relegation

    They suck the life out of more than just the game of football. Here we are sitting fourth and the discussion is whether we can still be relegated. Get a life. (no pun intended)
  11. Played in the right position and given good service he is good enough for the Championship. But please not until the season after next.
  12. Gave it to Marvin for the goal and the fact it came about after some rare skillfull play.
  13. Me neither, we very poor, even diabolically bad at times, Ainsworths mis hit goal, with the keepers help, typified the match for me. The saying " if you can win when not playing well" comes to mind. Absolutely no creativity in centre mid. If we can get to fourth with the present players what could we do with some skill in there.I can only remember Johnson getting one pass in the first half and that was a foot from the line. Dare I say it again, Lasley and Gomis cannot play together, Gomis is slower than Lasley.
  14. Is it also true at certain level of payments additional benefits kick in if you wish to use them.
  15. Ps. Also from/to Central out 30 mins later possibly because direct. Return arrives earlier too.
  16. Checking on Trainline Queen Street out 9.24 leaving Inverness 17.30 £54.40. Never been there on train before so dont know if 17.30 is doable from stadium. Do know is about 20 min walk stadium to centre.
  17. Not only took the stuffing out of their fans. Listening to BBC Scotland on the way to Motherwell prior to late goal biased Miller and Gordon had Aberdeen top of the league at 5pm. Definitely not impartial.
  18. I was probably one of his severe critics. As I said in another thread he is easily disposessed when caught on the ball. However I have seen a marked improvement in his overall play since Lasley went off injured against Utd and again vs Aberdeen. Possibly nearer his natural position. McGhee did say he was cover for Lasley. Doubt we can afford both in midfield.
  19. Having seen it at the game and again on video recording I agree 100%.

    It really is amazing. depending of course on other results we are only one win away from fourth.
  21. In the first half our back four, not for the first time, played too narrow, more like four centre backs giving Utd the freedom of both flanks. We were lucky it didn't cost us dearly. In the games Laing played he surprisingly for a central defender didn't drift in so much.
  22. Chris Sutton? Easy really ex Celtic darling. Pamper to the old firm fans. Works for the Rancid apparently. Does that explain? Reminds me a quote mentioned to me many years ago. Verbal diarrhoea. There are times when impaired hearing has benefits.
  23. I am definitely not a Gomis fan, too slow of thought and deed, caught in possesion in the middle of the park too often, however have to admit he improved by a mile when Lasley went off.
  24. Club should be making sure that this gets maximum exposure in the media and elsewhere from now until the final. Friday night will Craigan be on BT sport duty?.
