  1. It's the modern way Busta. One footed players, and managers who love to play them in the wrong position.
  2. I only saw the highlights. but the problem on Saturday seemed to be that we started with Plan B.
  3. Bruce Cleland's 50 yard effort at Love Street - we still lost, but it was a cracker. Andy Walker's goal against, I think, Brechin, that secured promotion out the First division. Too many of Wullie P's to mention. Alfie Conn's first goal for the club against East Stirling; a delicate wee lob. Brian McLaughin's against Accies after running half the length of the park and beating about 7 players along the way. Paul Mill's last minute effort against at Dunfermline. Paul Smith's goal in the League Cup semi against Celtic. There have been so many it's difficult to choose a favourite. Oh, and Andy Lynch's double against Celtic

    Overreaction

    How long have you been sitting on that one?
  5. He might still be injured, but it's also true that some people are just crap at jumping. However, just because you are tall doesn't mean you thrive off the high ball. Higdon's strengths lie elsewhere. He is a bit like Porter - a good link up player, a natural goal scorer and, by SPL standards, a wee bit slow. You only need to see how many he banged in for a poor St. Mirren team to realise that he can definitely cut it at our level. From the highlights and live games I have seen, he does seem to be isolated far too often. Whether we are pressing or playing counterattacking, he needs support.
  6. I think they released them at the end of the season. I have definitely seen them.
  7. So maybe we should have tried against Celtic instead of putting all our eggs in this basket.
  8. Vidalia + Firefox + Foxyproxy. Takes 15 mins to configure then it's all free. One of these days I'll get around to posting exactly how to do it. As far as the game goes - oh crap.
  9. I roll this one out every time the subject is mentioned. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbWn204p6og "I Love This Town" - Used it for the MLB playoffs a few years ago. Simple tune a crowd can sing (esp. the chorus).
  10. English clubs can't lend out players to SPL on one month deals - it's against the rules (regardless of salary).
  11. Easy Here comes Omar Daley, He's Jamaican, not Israeli, He plays the ukelele, But never, ever gaily (not that there's anything wrong with that). I'll leave the melody to someone else.

    John Sutton

    With their history of not paying bonuses, I guess he's on 2.7k total
  13. When it comes to sectarian bigotry, Scotland is a backward country. You can try and take context out of the discussion, but anybody with an IQ bigger than their shoe size knows that taking a Union Jack to a Celtic game is different from taking one to Last Night of the Proms. All this "but it's just a show of Britishness" is at best, disingenuous. I'm all for freedom of speech and 100% believe you should be allowed to display whatever flag you like. However, freedom of speech also gives me the right to say it drags us down to the OF level; something I don't want to be associated with my club.
  14. Sub-editors everywhere will be delighted. "Hibs Given Daley Lesson" "Win Bonus Earns Daley Bread" and when he gets his first hat-trick "Three Times Daley" etc. etc.
  15. Maybe we should use our normal system then instead of changing it to one that suits the old firm better.
  16. Maybe we could get some good posters in on emergency loan.
  17. I doubt it. The guy's a winger, I believe, and we aren't short in that department.
  18. England to Scotland transfer window rules, presumably. He's not a free agent, so need to abide by those. EDIT: assuming there is any truth in the rumour, of course.
  19. They also must either have Jumbo Muir or Kirkie Lawson painted on them.

    John Sutton

    I always thought he was solid, but nothing more. Over the past few years I would place Porter, Clarkson, Murphy and Jutkiewicz ahead of him.
  21. It's ex-pat code for a stream for the Celtic game.
  22. Aye, but lots of people (especially kids or folks with kids) often have activities on a Saturday morning - like playing football - that would make them miss a noon kick-off.

    John Sutton

    Agree with that, and like I said at the time, I think one of the reasons for his purple patch watch our signing of Jeffers. The work he did off the ball was very impressive and opened up all sorts of opportunities for both Sutton and Murphy. Hearts have struggled up front in recent months and Sutton was never going to magically change that - he's not that type of player.
  24. Also, many PATG punters are PATG because other commitments mean they can only attend a few games a season. This scheme allows them to invest in the club in a different (and for them, possibly better) way.
