Just wanted to gauge bear opinions, listening to his interview saying he's worried about how he'd get back into the brum team for a guy at his age. If he were Scotland manager (as opposed to buggering off for the big bucks) he'd be giving it the old 'he's a great asset to the team' gab. Holding the captain over a barrell like that is a bigger crime than my grammar.
On a similar note, central midfielders for Scotland, Ferguson over Fletcher all day every day, he actually knows how to put in a good performance with shitty players around him.

As much as I like the wee man I think it's cos the songs a little bit on the homoerotic side.
-
For me it depends on context, if I went into Annie's and started calling folk H** this and orange that I'd be out on my arse before I knew it, but with some of my friends in Glasgow and Aberdeen it's just banter. When the t******* or the sheep shaggers call me it it riles me up because they're basically just insulting me without knowing what they're talking about. I can definately understand people getting pissed off with it because it's an insult, plain and simple.

I think Weir's been looking very shaky over the past few weeks.
Wilson and Bougherra for a few games would do nicely.
I agree with this point, Weir could do with a wee rest, one or two games thats all but he has been shaky not least in the 3-3 each draw at Hamilton.
He's been selling himself really bad over the last four or five games (that I've seen).
Committing to tackles he'd never win, being caught out of position etc...
Wilson's been an absolute necessity.
Definately, big Davie really needs a rest, I daresay Broaders and Wilson would do the trick at CB.
-
I like him at Right back, because I hate broadfoot at Right back and I like novo or Davis in Right mid.
Nah, Broadfoot's a mlles better defender, granted his touch and mobility isn't as good, but I'd have Whittaker on the bench as a plan B if Novo and Beasley are underperforming or unfit. Much rather see Davis stay at CM, it's a different team with him pulling the strings.

McGregor
Whittaker Bougherra Wilson Papac
Novo Davis Thomson Beasley
Boyd Miller
Thoughts?
I'd only change Whittaker to Broadfoot, I don't rate whitty as a full back at all. Have him as a sub, versatile player who can play in a number of positions.
Beasley is a certainty if he can get that december form back!
Spot on, could easy swap them round if things get a little tough.
-
Aye he's a dick but congrats to him, will look forward to calling a healthy guy an arsehole, couldn't bear doing it to someone with cancer!
-
I'm amazed they're not playing wonderwinger Paddy Mccourt, thought he was going to singlehandedly win the league?

This is a guaranteed 10 pager thread
Seems to be petering out a little, 7 pages no bad tho.
Does sherlock work for smug btw, and wtf does pierre do?

Was just wondering if the collective (or not really if, cos that's a given, but why) will single him out for worse treatment than normal Celtic players, seeing as how we developed him. Personally I think because PLG chucked him its more a case of Rangers making the wrong decision as opposed to him being treacherous, and if he plays well for Scotland I really won't mind.
It's probably a case of a shitty rag with a shitty story but it got me thinking anyway.

This is one deal we could have done without.
We have McCulloch, Thomson, Edu and Davis who can play CM. Take Davis out of the equation and we have very little creativity in the middle of the park. If Davis picks up an injury we are fucked! But hopefully it means that Davis will never have to play RW again.
I wish Pedro Mendes all the best. A decent signing who showed glimpses of real quality but too often he played on the periphary of the game. However, his goals will be remembered.
Great point - without Davis we have zero creativity in midfield. Zero pace as well if McCulloch and Thomson team up. This is not good.
Especially if Beasley and Novo aren't fit, I think most here agree Davis in CM is better than Mendes and with the other 3 cleaning up it would be strong, but hopefully Edu will really start to come onto a game, and McCulloch's on pretty good form atm. Plus, anyone seen much of Gregg Wylde, apparently he's got good pace?
-
How shite is sammy though watching those highlights he is fucking dire.
He's fast turning into my favourite player. Could watch that donkey all day long.
-
Credit where credit is due, last season i was one of his biggest critics.
ditto mate, I was on his case a lot last year but now he seems to be like a novo, not much technical skill but works his arse off. But by the same token, KT is being written off now, and at his best is better than big lee at his best. I think he will have to drop out for creativity as our midfield is very strong when on full fitness and form, but I've been impressed since pre-season (but not a moment sooner!)
-
Great rip, would love to see tha T*** game tho!
-
It would be funny if because of these performences and his goal he could be snapped up for a pretty tasty fee and we'd never see him again. I mean funny in a waking up and stepping onto drawing pins kind of way.
-
I know I posted earlier saying I didn't really care but with the examples listed I do think it's a double standard that we are officially not allowed to sing a poxy song. Personally I think that anyone should be able to say whatever they please, and anyone can reply to it however they please, it would make TV much more interesting. But to be fair Jim Traynor spent an hour with the establishment gag, but then again that was comedy gold.

Thursdays Semi, assuming Algeria lose, lets see which day he decides to come back. I'm going for Tuesday the 2nd. Anyone else?

70m people is too much

True. But only from politicians and religious idiots.
true that. And Simon Cowell. Fuckin jobby.

Never met a steward that I liked, had good banter with a cop at pittodrie at last game, admitted he was a sheep shagger but didn't get his knickers in a twist when we sung TBB. Stewards are dicks, as are bouncers.
-
Of course I do, and I exercise my right to switch it off. And it's fine to want people to like your club, but if we're allowed to call Tam Cowan a stupid prick that's never been funny, ever, then I think it's okay for him to call us h***. I don't like it, but I'll have to go along with it. and I did hear about the greenock thing and if true it is a decent story, but as the song goes, no-one likes us, we don't care.
-
Awful player, awful attitude, he can only improve though, there's no way he can get worse.
-
I can't believe anyone cares, if you don't like it, don't tune in, I couldn't give two shits what anyone says about the Rangers, we still sing TBB and the scum fans got hammerred in the media for not respecting the minutes silence, so it's not double standards, and it's a bit ironic that people laugh at paranoid septic fans but moan about some wee fanny calling us h***.
-
For some reason I have a good feeling about Sat's game, Hearts have a few injury worries themselves and, lets face it, they're shite, we beat them with ten men. 4-1 and David Weir to get a hat trick as he'll be played up front as the lone striker due to his vast experience.
-
haven't really seen much of him, I'm aware Sportsound at least thinks he's the shit but they also thought Gary Caldwell was good (bit sad to see him go, always enjoyed guaranteed goals against the scum, at least cakmanus is still there). Next season we'll see, but if he stays fit then I'd bet on him being a decent player like Broadfoot, good not great and consistent.

Why does Gordon Brown comment about this but not about his own damn team. I know Raith Rovers are pish but commenting on the England team is as bad as Alan Hansen. Don't give a shite about politics but I'll refer to Mr. Shankly.
