  1. He's here till Christmas so a waste of a discussion, I see him as part of the club so am as keen for him to do well as I am for any of the players who take the field. He has a run of games to take points, then a run of games to prove his qualities, I don't need him to win the league but I need him to show improvement across the piece.
  2. Great game, thoroughly enjoyed it, almost made me wonder if I would enjoy Championship football next year, as Turnbull is the class act I will be harshest on him and say occasionally he dallied on the ball too long when he could have made a pass, but overall there were no failures. Double header for me as I will take in the women's team tomorrow at Forthbank, it's the Scottish Cup semi final and we have a chance of winning this game.
  3. Donnelly is doing no worse than the rest of his team mates but for me the beard is an issue.
  4. It was an allegory, if I have got my grammatical terms correct, perhaps I was being too clever for the audience, this has been a bit like having to explain a joke which takes all the fun out of it.
  5. The point being made was that our success was down to luck e.g, own goals etc, I was pointing out that other teams take advantage of fortune without bleating on about it, I described a fictitious scenario where a Jambo ignored the goals they had gained due to them being laid on a plate by their opposition, i.e. I was mimicking the ridiculousness of the original point. It had nothing to do with a replay.
  6. I was talking to the Hearts fan at work, he said that as one of their goals was because Bigi dawdled on the ball and another was when the entire Motherwell team had pushed forward, that they saw the game as a 2-2 draw and were looking forward to the replay
  7. I hope he stays for 10 years and builds 3 teams in that time and at the end brings a trophy home.
  8. Happy with the Dandy Dons in the semi
  9. Not overly concerned about this one, there was nothing between the teams last week and they failed to overcome Livi this week. Not sure where the goal(s) will come from, are we not due a penalty?
  10. McHugh played in defence then midfield then defence, hit the bar and had one of our only two other shots at goal, could be a contender.
  11. Disappointing game but two weeks in a row where there was nothing between the teams other than one incident, sadly that is all it takes and in neither game were we a goal threat.
  12. Everything went through Bigi again, is that a good thing?
  13. Strange game, don’t think we are playing that well but much of the game is being played in the Aberdeen half
  14. I have watched Turnbull as well, is there a danger he is a wee bit Ross Forbesy?
  15. I don’t mind that Gillespie might get a couple of games, he needs to keep his eye in. I would like to see a greater variety come on from the bench, I would have preferred to see a midfielder come on and create for the front two rather than change one of the front men.
  16. As bad a pass back that was, it was the ball to McHugh that initiated the bad passage of play. It was played behind him so he had to go backwards. It should be simple to play the ball in front of a player to take it in his stride.
  17. Do you think he could do a similar job at a different club? Would he have the passion?
