Sorry, never knew about this. Well yeah black arm bands should have been worn as he was an ex player. But wearing black arm bands for Sol Bamba when a wall fell down in Africa seems a bit OTT for me.

The problem is that a Cinema has very low overheads. Paying the ticket sellers - minimum wage. Cost of Cinema (Running costs, rent etc) Paying for the rights to watch the film. Nowhere in there is a £500 - £2000 a week salary, the running of a stadium, the up keep of a pitch. Paying for security, police etc. Also films are advertised by multi million pound movie companies. A cinema has no need to advertise. All people need to know is where it is. A cinema and a football club are two totally different things.

Big Brian McLean provided one of the best defensive displays I have seen at Fir Park in many a year. Was also a real handful at set peices.

We should just wear black arm bands all the time and that means if anyone dies in the week before the game then we are covered. Minute sliences and black arm bands should be used sparingly as the whole thing starts to become desensitised.

Aberdeen can't afford to sack Jimmy. If they did - McGhee would go in a flash though.

Whats thats going to do to the SPL - most of the teams already adhere to this rule. Two leagues of 18 teams would do fine.

Nope its bang on the money. The fact the top six can stop you your tracks and make a season totally worthless when you could have been pushing for europe. The club and fans get affected by this and attendences go down. This season is a perfect example, with only three games to the split and every team has something to play for and we are going to derail some clubs due to a stupid rule. Get rid of it!

The fact we are now nearing the end of March and we have only lost two games and one of them was a last minute deflection I think shows how well we have been doing. I think these draws might stop us getting into the top six. Draws against Falkirk, Hibs, Killie and St Mirren spring to mind. It just shows how much we have missed Chris Porter. Sutton has done OK, but we are certainly drying up on the goal front.

So he had a bad game and he suddenly isn't a full back, what is he then? Man of the match against Dundee Utd and low and behold - he was playing full back!

Big Semi will not be playing for us as long as our players are fit. Simple like Klimpl.

Sutton and Sheridan up front against Killie. Bring Clarky on if we need a goal. Sheridan has got pace and can take players on this allows Sutton the space.

I'm going fly fishing up in Skaville for the day - fuck Rugby Park!

Can anyone tell me why Paul Caddis - a right back was played up front for Dundee Utd on Saturday? He did alright, but its not like DU are short of strikers - seemed an odd one in my book.

The fact is the pitch cost us another two goals on Saturday. A better surface and I am sure Sheridan and Sutton would have slotted those two chances away. The ball bobbling along caused them to take an extra second on hitting the shot. This pitch will bite us on the arse at some point this season. Luckily though we have been getting the rub of the green so to speak!

I must confess to listening to the show in car on the way home from work quite a lot. The formula of the show is quite simple. Ewen reads the Daily Record or The Sun an hour before the show starts, shuts his eyes and points at whatever story his finger lands on. This then becomes the topic for the day. Ewen then antogonises the public listening by taking one side and Alan Rough will take the other side. An argument will then occur. The producers then screen the calls and the usual punter is an Old Firm fan who is maybe drunk or shouting down their phone. Ewen and Roughy then slag them off and the process continues. Sometimes they bring on a caller with more than an ounce of intelligence and they might say something sensible which will cause Ewen to crack a joke as he is incapable of having a well rounded debate. The show usually ends with Roughy confused about something and Ewen doing his Mutley laugh usually at the expense of another caller. Its like Haribo sweets - addictive, but has no substance.

If he stays fit and works his way into the first team then he is the ideal replacement for either Craigan or Quinn. He excelled at right back while Quinn was out after the gypsy hay-bailer he got.

You are skating on thin ice young lad.

I am giving the club feck all in regards to the pitch. They should have fixed this in the summer and they didn't so to expect me to raise money for the clubs mistakes is a no no. Anyway I am starting to like our wee 'sand trap' - the more we get used to it then the more chance we have against other teams. Roll on Europe - would love to play Juventus on that park! Ibrahimavic will shite himself!

Just send this to Darryl Braodfoot: So Darryl, We are a grumpy impertinent bunch are we? For what? Having the audacity to shout when one of our players gets stuck in or even shout at the ref for one of his numerous bad decisions yesterday. But you just ignore Celtic fans singing about the death of Davie Cooper and almost causing a full scale riot in the Cooper stand due to one of them stealing a pork pie? Usually I don't mind your writing Darryl, but if you are going to insult one set of fans make sure you pull up the other for their shocking behavior and not just us for being 'grumpy'. By the way I had a great time yesterday and left with a smile on my face! Peter

Klimpl for me. He had Scott Brown and Nakamura shiting themselves all game!

I noticed some major trouble in the Cooper with at least 6 people being chucked out and a fair few punches being thrown by Celtic fans so its no suprise there was trouble after the game. The Celtic fans should be held back 20 minutes or so until the East and Main stands are cleared out. They can't take a beating or it seems even a draw - the c***s!

I think he is just a bad ref who gets caught up in the game too much and starts to panic. You could see it in his face that he wasn't coping to well. Overall though I have seen much much worse at Fir Park.

Yeah I did. Hughes and Fitzy should have both stayed on the park as both are better than Smith. He was playing because he is an effective midfielder who broke up most of St Mirrens attacks on the left side. Oooh getting personal now? Aren't you the big man! He almost scored a total peach and made some brilliant runs most of the game. Also he is a midfielder - how many shots on average should he be getting? Agree that Jim was a threat. Sheridan had a poor first half, but thought he did really well in the second. Clarky had a shocker all night. He kept Dorman quiet, but some of his passing was very poor. He seemed to be slicing it all the time. Too much Slovak Vodka? Here we go again! Why not get stuck into Quinn or Clarky too. They played much worse than Fitzy? I'll tell you why - cos he has done nothing to merit a start. He is slow and has no impact when he comes on. Sheridan at least looks a threat and with a bit of luck could have got a goal last night. St Mirren played the perfect stifiling game last night and Gus McPherson got his tactics spot on - he stopped us playing and he played the counter attack. The odd goal was going to win it. Now does that not make more sense than coming on here and starting a totally pish rant that makes no sense?

The sad thing is our chances of getting a decent league position are badly affected due to our own penny pinching as this pitch has affected the way we play and will not improve for the rest of the season. Thats my main gripe about all of this. By side stepping the problem we have created a much bigger one.

We need a roof!
