  1. He comes from Hucknall, where i'm living now, and came through hucknall sports (my wee boy trains with them). So he's came from Nothing but he's a typical Nottingham lad, full of it, hence the crazy statements.

    He's very highly rated by the fans at Forest and they want him back, i go to the games now and again. The reason Karanka loaned him out is he wants older, more experienced players in there and the big number 44 Hefele has been immense this season. If Karanka stays we might get a chance at a permanent move.

    What population has Iceland? A country with even less resources available than ours yet still able to not only qualify for Euro 2016 but compete at a high level.

    The real issue is technical ability is at an all time low.This  coupled with our failure to embrace the importance of physical professionalism. 

    In the modern game the two go hand in hand. Until such time as football in this country can focus on these fundamentals then we will continue to regress I'm afraid.

    Take a look at any game played in the spl this weekend and witness players who are incapable of performing even the most basic skills. We treat the ball like a hot tottie and fitness levels are way below that on the continent. Admit it or not, that's down to diet and lifestyle choices because these countries don't breed supermen.

    For what it's worth I firmly believe that what Warburton is doing at our club is the correct way to improve the standard. For the game to improve as a whole every club needs to adopt the same philosophy from grass roots to first team.

    Our league will be of a standard similar to the Icelandic one soon enough. I give no fucks for the Scotland national team.

    You know, I was kind of wondering about this recently. Every time some foreign person asks me where I'm from, mostly when I'm on holiday, and I say Glasgow, Scotland, they always say ' Ahh, Rangers?' not 'Ahh, Celtic?' They always guess right with no obvious clues that I can see.

    Why is this?

    Your eyes must be the normal width apart and you must have all your own teeth with an IQ higher that 16.

    Can't see how it's got anything to do with pandering to them. You think we're giving them the tickets we do for the benefit of sellic fans? It happens to benefit the sellic fans that are there, but that's got feck all to do with why we do it.

    We do it because 1/ It's the tradition of the fixture, 2/ It benefits the fixture therfore benefits our exposure and probably keeps TV happy, 3/ It guarantees us having fans at the girodome.

    Whether you agree with those being good reasons or not, it's nowt to do with pandering to sellic in any way.

    I remember in the 90's they were banned by Murray for smashing seats constantly. It took NOTHING away from the fixture.

    Pretty surprised this appeared in the record tbh

    Now we've moved a little nearer the center of the political spectrum, with the eu ref result, these rhats and rhags will have to start giving us a fairer hearing. I said it before and I'll say it again the left wing have had their day.

    Hearsay? I've been and spoke to sports direct. Physically went to buy it for the wee yin. Manager in shop said it won't be released the day and don't even know if it will go up for sale as things stand. So as it stands between club and SD in her opinion it won't be sold 

    I know what your saying but we've had nothing official, the manager "didn't know" if it would be released. The club have to say something surely? I hope they keep this one for another year as i got the wee man it and the red one for £15 from JD last year! and got the home one for £20 for myself from there too. lol

    The sooner we get safe standing and alcohol back in to football grounds the better. 

    After the cup final carry on i can't ever see alcohol being allowed for the foreseeable future. Also the tims cannot be trusted when drunk, yet they're the ones pushing for it the hardest.
