  1. Early days for Watt, but I was encouraged that at least he was getting involved and didn't hide.
  2. When I was learning to drive, my mum used to make me drive her to Fine Fare on late night opening Wednesdays "for practice". Or it might have been Gateway by then. Back to the football - we need two new central defenders ASAP.
  3. It wasn't a maths tutorial, it was mostly needed for doing the messages at Fine Fare.
  4. Fadinger looks like he was designed to play JBA's game.
  5. and most of the wee keepers add a few cm to their wiki page.
  6. never used those (but I never bet on the horses) We were also taught: 16oz in 1lb 14 lbs in a stone 8 stone in a hundredweight 20 hundredweight in a ton (and that's me done)
  7. Exactly! 3ft 3 inches in a metre 2.2lbs in a kg 1.6 km in a mile They drilled us well.
  8. People my age grew up with both systems, so know there are 2.54cm to an inch. 179 / 2.54 = 70.47 inches. 12 inches to a foot, so 70.46 inches = 5 ft 10.47 inches.
  9. Meanwhile, at the BBC, the latest results are in
  10. AP's not a hold-up man, he's an inside the box finisher. If we want to get the most from him, he needs to be facing the goal with the ball in front of him.
  11. Some encouraging signs from the new players, and can see some new tactical ideas taking shape - but work to be done. I thought Connelly handled the sweeper-keeper role better than Ward, albeit with little pressure being applied. The less said about the defence the better.
  12. A Fad-hum-dinger. Take your pick...
  13. Conceding the early goal has given them something to hang on to. They are sitting deeper and deeper now, but we need some penetration.
  14. It's all about the "load balancing" with JBA.
  15. Agreed. I can see some positives with some of our play mid to front, even if it's not quite coming off. I see nothing at the back.
  16. As long as we score 4 or 5 goals per game, the defence is nothing to worry about.
  17. Efficient with our shooting efforts now.
  18. Been saying for the past 2 or 3 seasons. Needed a complete clear out.
  19. It was terrible, both in marking and the attempt at a tackle.
  20. I used to watch Hugh Sproat defend at the half-way line, so keepers that stand outside their box don't worry me much.
  21. No need to worry. The defence give up the goal, so business as usual.
  22. Macron's sizing is for actual professional footballers - I've always needed one size larger in their gear. I haven't seen any changes in recent years, but don't have any of this season's kit. I imagine the folk working in the shop can confirm.
  23. That's even more likely these days.
  24. Very true, but I don't blame his dad for that. It seems like the same interview cut up into pieces and reprinted multiple times in different places.
  25. Aye, JBA did a fine job swatting down the journos in his presser. His dad has been a key influence in managing Miller's career and helping him make good choices (like staying at Fir Park and getting 75 first team appearances under his belt). I wish some of our other youngsters had similar guidance, and I'm OK with him talking to the media.
