If we keep Bair, I'm not sure we need another forward. I'm never opposed to signing a creative mid for any team, but I can guarantee that if we do they will be labelled as slow and useless in the tackle by half the fans.

I agree with SK on this one. The authorities claimed it wouldn't change the way players played the game, and that VAR wouldn't start refereeing games. Both claims have proved to be false. The worst thing for me is it just takes away from the spontaneity of the game - especially when you score and have to wait 2 minutes for a goal to be confirmed. When you watch leagues with no VAR, even the most controversial flashpoints are over in a few seconds and the players and fans quickly refocus on the game. And everybody just gets back on with it. VAR is the exact opposite where every incident big and small is tainted by the check and the long wait.

He's one of those players that needs games I think. Was unlucky, with the change of manager who suddenly didn't fancy him for whatever reason. That happens at every club of course - different tactics, different styles, different preferences. If he wants to stay down south I imagine he should be able to find another club relatively easily.

Confirmed it's on MFC TV.

Did Lennon Miller get sold already?
-
A Rangers man supporting England? (Lee Dixon said it was never a pen)
-
Today Rangers. Tomorrow the world (via Rotherham, Partick Thistle, Linfield, Hartlepool, Hamilton and Ayr). Or maybe that just applies to Jake Hastie. Miller strikes me as someone who, like Max Johnston, would do better for himself with a move to a European club.

It definitely needs that, and it also needs belief in the new methods. During their adoption, France famously failed to qualify for the '94 World Cup finals when they lost their last game 2 -1 against Bulgaria (conceding in the 90th minute, when a draw would have seen them through). Instead of panicking, the French FA stuck to their 10 year plan and ended up winning the World Cup in '98 and the Euros in 2000.
-
Been saying that for years. There are good examples to follow - France being a great one. They managed to reform their setup from a debacle to Euro and World Cup winning teams. We won't have that level of success, but their approach would definitely makes things much better. Bonhof had some good ideas when he was U-21 coach that were completely ignored too.

You'll buy one when we win the cup this year.

They've been terrible up front this tourney. Creating a few, but their finishing has been awful and really struggling to score goals. They manged 2 goals in five games and missed a fair number of chances. I can see why they might not want to start Theo, but to not ever use him as an option off the bench when all the other options repeatedly fail to score seems a bit strange.
-
Theo still not getting a sniff. Looking for goals the gaffer prefers bringing on a Minnesota Utd player. EDIT: confirmed another zero minutes. Jesse Marsch's inflexible team selection makes Steve Clarke look like Berti Vogts
-
Hastie, Turnbull, Scott, Cadden and Campbell. All played in the same team and all had very different career trajectories.
-
The Society has done a good job today with their PR. The message from Bryan Jackson was a nice touch.
-
Graeme McGarry?
-
Or nowhere near football in general - but sadly a large part of our game still thrives on the religious divisions.
-
If all those pro-Protestants go to church tomorrow they'll run out of pews across the West of Scotland.
-
Entertaining game, though - not always for footballing reasons. And Theo gets a good view from the bench for a semi againt Argentina.
-
I don't know what Theo needs to do to get some minutes on the field. Canada are a decent team but are crying out for someone to take a chance or two. Should have been 3 up at half time in tonight's game, lost a soft goal, and missed another couple of good chances after that. 1 - 1, 15 mins to go, and he still isn't getting a sniff.
-
Agreed. If you ignore the Brexit vote, the rise of right wing extremists in France and Donald Trump winning the Presidency, when has calling people with opposing views "gullible" or "stupid" done any harm?
-
Agreed. If you want to persuade people to join your camp, calling them "stupid" or "gullible" is not the approach to take.

Not been contacted yet, but I was assuming an email was forthcoming based on the original announcement. About the ballot This vote will be administered by Civica Election Services (CES), the UK’s foremost independent provider of election services and voting mechanisms, on behalf of The Well Society. CES will issue voting instructions to members directly in due course, either by post or email from takepart@cesvotes.com. Please add this address to your safe senders list.

Also, all Trump's businesses go bankrupt and/or end up having to settle lawsuits.

Exactly my thought. I have zero inclination to donate to EB's pension fund if he takes over the club.
