Winning by Name

The thing is as far as the OF are concerned its not about a far bigger area than the city of Glasgow indeed other countries are involved too (for better or worse).

It is interesting that the commentators on BBC actually said during the game that Colum loves being centre stage.

Much better put than my response later. Spot on!

That was the game when we had illness in the squad yes. Although it looks like we fielded a full team more or less you could see there were a lot of players dragging themselves about the pitch and were clearly suffering fluish stuff. They dug in so well that night.

I think it was Jock Stein who said 'a 100 metres sprint with 8 grannies would be competitive but very low quality'

I would have Woolery on left in place of Cornelius, but that apart looks like a decent selection.

I totally agree with you on this. We are dragging ourselves down.

I think ODonnell had a good game on Sunday and Mugabi had a nightmare against Charles Cook the last time against Ross County I would like to see ODonnell at right back. I agree with the rest of the team though.

I understand the others but why doesnt anyone seem to want Morrison to stay. It seems a bit harsh.

Really? It was them who were outstanding, not him. The first half of the year we were dreadfull - Turnbull was moved off the bench and Hastie was brought back from Alloa, if SR had such brilliant visionary and development skills why did he leave it to the eleventh hour? Especially in Turnbull's case who was clearly way above the level required.

True, but as we all know, evolution is not always a good thing.

There was one season where he was saved by the performances of David Turnbull and Jake Hastie who were virtually unplayable.

I would take out Woolery and put in O'Hara, if only we had Ray Farningham we might just snatch it (reminiscing!!!!!!)

100% agree

Its an impossible call really, if you don't shore up the defensive side of things at the end and lose a goal you get criticised; if you do shore up the defensive side of things and dont lose a goal although its a dodgy time (like saturday) you get criticised. That's why managers get paid the big bucks.

Absolutely agree with this.

Luckily, 10 of the 12 teams in our league are pretty much the same.

I think it is a bit of both.

True enough, I meant directly from a throw just trying to lighten it a bit.

You cant score from a throw

Too soon!

Exactly! I have been wondering that for weeks.

Yes you are right, I better step up my medication.

Senility is kicking in and I cannot rely on my memory all the time nowadays but did Nicky Walker and Andy Dornan not sign for us on the same day? As I say I could be a mile out! I am sure someone will correct me.

Remember that there was a real problem before with those very same senior pros influencing things above SR and control needed to be re-established in the dressing room. I think some like Gallagher, Polworth and posiibly Watt being examples of that.
