lee richardson in the betting! dirty bastard.

i can't believe there's people on this thread who want yogi.

you're going to die in the first division, die in the first division!

blackman should be the main priority. possibly more important than a new manager. gow is only blocking jamie murphy's development and imo is nowhere near as good a player as jamie already is. plus he's a super jonah, every club he goes to hit the shitters. and we've been in the ridiculous situation of having six strikers in the match day squad. he should be allowed to move on. fitzy could do a job but at the same time should we be extending the contract of someone who has only started 3 games in 18 months? halsman, meechan and innes should be given a chance to provide cover. we need one or two players who can come in and be first team players at left mid and centre mid. to get them we need to free up wages.

is there not a family connection with his paedo father in law being a well fan?

chisolm and dodds are about the last people i'd want involved. i'd take tangoman or yogi before those two. i agree that we should take our time though. the next four games will take care of themselves, as long as we have a new boss by new year i'll be happy.

there was a contract though. we paid them x amount every month. they were protected by employment law. that's a contract.

humphrey only started 2 or 3 in the 2nd half of that season. i didn't say it was only 7 players, i just said it wasn't gannon's team. gannon wanted to punt at least 4 of them in the january window. ripping the heart out the club by getting rid of the players with the most feeling for the club. we're bemoaning the lack of loyalty from brown tonight, i'm delighted that we still have a number of players at the club who do have a sense of belonging and loyalty at fir park. you only need to look at the aberdeen squad to see what happens when you have too many people who don't give a fuck about a club. guys like phil and craggs add more to a club than what they produce on the park.

no chance. gow will hopefully follow him up there but i can't see anyone else heading north. blackman is a worry but he's settled here so i don't see why blackburn would send him elsewhere in the spl.

ruddy hateley craigan reynolds hammell o'brien jennings lasley sutton murphy jutkiewicz what rip the heart out the club? the reason we'll be ok just now is because we have a decent core of players we can rely on, most of whom gannon wanted to punt.

aye i fear some of us might turn to drink! you've got to roll with punches mate, it's good to keep things interesting.

spl rules i think we'd argue we had some kind of contract with them. the fact that we were paying them an agreed wage would constitute a contract in scots law i think.

they were club employees and shouldn't have been directly approached by another spl club.

there is if he thinks he'll walk in the door and get the same response he got from our players in january. the aberdeen squad is full of wasters who think they're big shots because they're up in the middle of nowhere. i'm already looking forward to well fans taking over the accies main stand for a bottom six relegation decider.

he had some strange quotes today about being able to keep 3 out of contract players (blackman, fitzy and gow) and how that would affect his decision. if he goes to aberdeen he can take fitzy and gow (and the cypriot and casagolda) with him. keeping blackman til the end of the season has to be our number priority tho.

this is a bit harsh. has no one considered this could be a sign of dementia and brown thinks he's going up there to manage leighton, miller, mcleish, strachan and black?

this is certainly unexpected. keeps us on our toes anyway with nae games at the moment. i hope brown stays as we're doing well just now and it'd be best not to rock the boat but even if he does go i reckon we'll be ok. brown isn't doing anything startling, just keeping it simple and getting as much as possible out of the players. the last three managers that have came have got off to flyers because we have a strong core of good players with a superb attitude - craigan, reynolds, hammell, lasley, sutton, jenno - and you can be sure they'll react the same way again. if this does happen i'll be disapointed but that'll be far outweighed by the excitement about the trip to sheepland next week. if he does go i'll also be firing a fiver on a motherwell-aberdeen CIS cup final :wank:

someone should tell him he brought five players in during the summer - charalambous, randy, blackman, casagolda and gow - as well as tripling tom hateley's wages.

brown is just a auld haverer, he says what ever is in his head or what he thinks people want to hear eg the "we've no money/we need to get through this round to make a signing/nae money/alan gow" patter in the summer. i don't think he's going anywhere he just likes a wee bit of attention.

it seems like united aren't too interested in getting the game on. they were gagging to call their game off against rangers as well.

i don't know about that. if the ball is out of play by the time ferguson hits weir then it cannae be a free kick. correct decision imo

we'll hopefully take inspiration from 3 years ago today. hearts 1 - motherwell 2. a poor first half performance sees us a goal down at half time. snow starts piling down at half time and seems to inspire the well who are first to every ball after the restart with hughes and mccormack running riot. one of my favourite away days. we went out for a few beers and a chinese in edinburgh after then went home to see ricky hatton getting sparked by mayweather.

the entire third page of this thread is a fail. eddie's joke was funny. muir on tour's was shite.
