  1. I doubt there is much difference between him and big Chapman. If Chapman had pulled off three great saves last week i'd say keep him in. What actually happened was we cleared three off the line. Go with pedigree and experience,
  2. What's the deal with streaming? Split the money between both teams obviously but is it allowed?
  3. It's clearly just an attempt to make some positive headlines during a week when most people are waking up to exactly how shite this winter is going to be. Anyone who believes that the SG is seriously considering letting fans into games was probably expecting pubs and restaurants only to be shut for a 'two week circuit breaker'.
  4. There is no chance of any fans during the winter in the top division. This is just football being used for PR again by the Scottish Government.
  5. You have to hope that Tony Watt will make that his regular level of performance now. There's no reason why he can't be a top player in this league. Cole added a lot. We didn't realise how much he added until he left in December with his link up and physical presence up front. He looked hungry as well. Lang scoring is a bonus as well and we are probably only a centre back away from having a decent team again.
  6. Cole and Watt has the potential to be a very good partnership.
  7. The sub does it. Great play to win the corner and good delivery too. Chris Long will beeling at Lang scoring first touch.
  8. Riding our luck a bit here. We need some subs.
  9. Long is an idiot. If he didn't learn his lesson after Israel he never will.
  10. Great goal. Moving the ball quickly at the shy then ambitious play from Polworth made the opportunity for McGinley to cross. That's what we need rather than the slow, slow build up we see too much of.
  11. This is the exact point. We have had a positive test but have clearly followed the distancing guidelines. The idea of a sporting bubble is nonsense for us anyway. Most players will live with a partner or parents who work or kids who attend school. It's all about testing and distance at the club.
  12. No matter how naive you are when your agent tells you to sign for a team in the USA for the league minimum without even visiting and you'll be loaned to Oxford then they will sign you permanently later but there's no guarantee alarm bells should have been ringing.
  13. He obviously knew what the plan between Columbus and Oxford was he just didn't expect it to be scrapped by MLS. He has obviously been badly advised but the buck stops with him. I'd still have him back though.
  14. And he's getting paid less than he was at Fir Park.
  15. Covid is pretty rare amongst Tuechters so we should be good to go.
  16. It's not just Scottish players. They have a guy in the squad Soro who they paid £2 million for in January and he has only played 16 minutes.
  17. They apparently only have five self isolating and it might be five squad players for all we know. Christie had 14 days because that is the restriction in Scotland. The Kilmarnock players supposedly had 14 days as well but Dyer said they had a couple of training sessions which makes no sense. As I said before the SPFL chickened out of setting a hard precedent with Killie and now everyone will push it as far as they can.
  18. There's a post on Pie and Bovril saying they have 3 positive and 5 self isolating.
  19. It was 14 days for Ryan Christie and it will be 14 days for every player St Mirren claim had to self isolate.
  20. Lennon doesn't seem to like putting new players in the team. Greg Taylor was MIA for months after he signed for big money and there are loads of players Celtic have signed who never get near the first team. Before Covid Callum McGregor had played the most football of any player in Europe which is mental when you consider the opportunities they have to rotate the squad.
  21. I've also find it very hard to believe that the entire Kilmarnock squad and backroom staff self isolated for two weeks from the day of our postponed fixture, left the house on Friday for the first time in 14 days then won 3-1 away at Livi 24 hours later.
  22. The SPFL should be asking for details of why each individual player has to isolate. They play Accies next Saturday so it'll be interesting to see how many players they have available.
  23. When Mane tested positive for Liverpool before their match with Arsenal no one else had to isolate. The protocols are designed to avoid players being close contacts with each other. People have tested positive in my work but no one has been a close contact as we have social distancing.
