  1. From what I have seen, Williams would be an excellent replacement for Longleo. I don't want him to leave as he has been one of our top performers, but at least we recruited a quality alternative.
  2. So if grizzly just DMs his jokes to El Grew every day, we're all happy?
  3. Did anyone else spot the error in this weekend's Society email. A Hibs fan must have been guest editor.
  4. I'm guessing he's talking about the first half when JT skipped past 2 or 3 defenders and then shot wide rather than passing. I thought he was entitled to shoot after that run, but I saw a few comments saying he was selfish.
  5. I don't think anybody has. Our levels dropped for the last 15 minutes of the first half. I wasn't too surprised, as I think the Thursday game caught up with a few players. As Alfred has said, the biggest challenge with the Sun - Thu - Sun is that players get almost no time to train together between travel and rest days. Once they get a few more weeks under their belt I'm sure the decision making will improve. The positive was that we had a strong bench and the subs helped us keep going for a point.
  6. And to clear up any doubt, here's the image from the Sportscene discussion showing how Gogic is impacting JT's attempt to get the rebound.
  7. Watch the replay on Sportscene while they discuss it and you'll see Gogic met all those criteria. His encroachment allowed him to affect JT on the rebound.
  8. You think an EPL scouting team wasn't aware of his height before they signed him? He's not trying to head the ball, and you don't need to be super tall to have hands that reach higher than a tall player's head. I'm still not sure why fans are fine with midfielders that make a couple of stray passes or strikers that miss a good chance or two, but expect a keeper to be 100% error free in every game. You only have to go back to Thursday to see a keeper with a top team make a howler from Longelo's shot. Take a look at Match of the Day on any given week and you'll see a couple of mistakes from the first team starter goalies.
  9. I don't know if it's an unpopular opinion, but that strip is far too Hearts / 2nd tier South American style for me. It's also a pointless colour scheme to avoid clashes, Stick to the white with some variation on the claret/amber trim.
  10. You predicted a 2 -1 home win earlier in the thread.
  11. Agree about Lowry. He's settling in nicely and looks to be the creative passer we were looking for.
  12. This time last season, we'd played 4 drawn 4. We are one point ahead of that tally with only 3 games played. Not too bad given all the disruption of injuries and Euro travels.
  13. We currently don't have a squad capable of Thu-Sun-Thu Euro football, so happy to take a point after it looked like we ran out of steam at the 30 minute mark. A stronger bench certainly helped, and Kanga could be as good a piece of business as Watt or Just.
  14. Ran out of steam, but still unbeaten. Take your pick...
  15. Even by VAR's low standards that was a terrible decision.
  16. There's isn't a team on the planet that scores with every good chance they create.
  17. Because VAR and its officials are mince.
  18. I don't blame JT for his last miss - was a great run and a decent effort. Cookie hits the second anyway.
  19. Not a fan of the stutter, but he's done that for all the ones he's scored too.
  20. Kanga and Hodge both take them too I believe.
  21. Must be a pen, surely. No idea what Gogic was thinking there.
  22. JT proving yet again he's much more effective from a wide position.
