Did you just find out he comes from a Rangers family? He's talked about that for years. Do we drop all players that go and watch other teams, or just him? And ban ex-players that come back to watch a game at Fir Park? And not sign anyone that played for the OF?

To be fair, you live in a State that doesn't recognize Joe Biden's election win (or evolution).

Is this your application for SFA Chief Executive?

It was always his dream to play in Claret and Amber... ...now he's done that, next on his list is to play in slightly disappointing black.

I watched their opening league game on the EFL highlights show at the weekend. He's already building that team in Robbo mode with a big center forward and pacey wide men. They were unlucky not to beat Ipswich, but as we witnessed a few times at Fir Park, after they took the lead in the 72nd minute they couldn't see out the game and conceded in injury time.

The six second rule was abandoned a few season ago. The handball rule seems to change every few weeks and I have literally no idea what the fine details are today.

The less any government gets involved in footballing decisions the better as far as I'm concerned. There's never been a pro-football government of any political persuasion in my lifetime.

I hadn't realised Danny Johnson moved to Mansfield after rejecting a new contract at Orient - but I see he scored from the spot in his league debut against Bristol Rovers.

The latest on Dundee's website says "The club have made an application to the local authority for an increase in capacity in both of these stands and also for an allocation for visiting supporters in the Main Stand." Also says they will have a minimum of 5000 with no social distancing. So looks like they are waiting for the official nod from the council.

I'm not sure if it's the tactics, the personnel or both, but right now we are leaving ourselves exposed on both wings.

Or give the new players more than 2 league games to bed in (although I know that's not how we roll on here despite some of our best players ever getting off to a slow start).

Our recent record in Perth isn't too bad. In the last 3 seasons we've played five, won two, lost two, drawn one. Entertainment is often zero, though.

Doesn't matter what any other team does. We need to be taking care of our own business and not worrying about what we can't control.

Interest free loan to be repaid over 20 years is a pretty sweet deal. Even if we didn't need it, sticking it in the bank and collecting interest would make it worthwhile. The lower league clubs were hit much harder than us for various reasons, and I have no problem with them receiving grants instead,

Apart from the black...

1982. The scene - a pub anywhere in Scotland. A tune comes on the video jukebox (it 's an upmarket pub). A few folk start mumbling the tune. The chorus kicks in and the singers ramp up their volume, "Too-ra-loo-ra, too-ra-loo-rye, ay" they roar in unison Then "Over the hill with the swords of a thousand men" 50% of them end with, thinking it was Tenpole Tudor they were listening to.

I'd bet my entire net worth (= the contents of my pocket) that nobody on here knows 1 verse without looking it up on the internet.

We played them 3 other times last season. Beat them 1 - 0 at Fir Park. Drew 1 - 1 in Perth and lost the cup tie 1 - 2 at Fir Park. That's a lot more representative than what was close to our worst performance all year.

I'd be amazed if St Johnstone score 4. Most of their league wins last season were 1 - 0, with the odd 2 - 1 thrown in for variety. If we do lose, it will be by the odd goal, but they didn't set the heather on fire against Ross County last week.

Does anyone under the age of 45 know the tune to that? Kevin Rowland can't even hold it.

Biggest issue for me with the defence at the weekend was it was the first time they played together this season and weren't acting as a unit. Whoever GA decides is our best starters need to settle in quick so they can work out who needs to cover for who when we have defenders miles up the park.

Seriously - get off the sofa and finish it up. 90% of the work has already been done.

Seeing as it's only 70s songs that seem to fit: "Now, I've got a cousin called Kevin" someone else can do the work on that.

While I enjoy giving him a hard time, Main's biggest problem when he was with us, is he lost confidence. He got away with it to some extent with his work rate and putting himself about. You always hear about strikers "taking a gamble" to take a position where the ball might end up, but if you watch his later games, his lack of confidence meant he did the exact opposite - always taking a safe position where he wouldn't have to shoot. His stint at Aberdeen didn't do much to repair that confidence, and I think he's a 5 or 6 goal per season striker at best at our level (and he's never had a double digit season at any club) - but I agree he's not the worst we've had. If you have an actual goal scorer in the team, he's not bad partner to play off.

I'm a fan of controlled aggression. I just meant that sometimes he gives away needless fouls in the wrong areas of the pitch or picks up an needless booking. Should be easy enough to correct, though, as he gets more experience and I definitely think he's worth his starting place right now.
