  1. Personally I would let both get back to full fitness before bringing them back in, after that let them fight for tgeir place. We would be losing loads if we move them on.
  2. I enjoyed watching it. Pretty sure they said Kashmir is the world's most militarized place. Some of the places they went looked shit but some looked lovely and when you see it you find it hard to believe where it is. I loved Robertson as a player when he played for us.
  3. I have always thought Ferguson was a prick and so is his brother. As for McCulloch, I never really bothered with his opinion as he was an average player when on top form and at times looked out of his depth in Scotland's lower leagues for us.
  4. I know he is still young but he should be scoring more goals and for the possession we have his goal scoring is embarrassing.
  5. 1 of the few players I've ever seen who can't get a cross and a shot at goal past the first man on most occasions. Guy does try and has occasional moments where he is brilliant, we need a player who is consistent and has more than the occasional moment. Is a decent squad player at best and would suit a team on the level of Hibs or Aberdeen.
  6. I said on here the other day that with the chances we make he would be breaking records.
  7. Under Gerrard we have improved and imho we seem to look as if we are heading somewhere. The league is gone and imho has been gone since about late January. The summer for me will be the true test of Gerrard as he now needs to start looking at getting in quality and not quantity.
  8. Been saying for ages we don't have any intelligent players, we don't have a guy who can take the game by the scruff of the neck either like a Barry Ferguson. I'm not saying our players are bad but we have all Indians and no chiefs.
  9. A problem we have with Candeias and Tav is their crossing is very poor and is more hit and hope as opposed to picking someone out, that could explain why some are good and some are bad. But I can't see who they are trying to put these high balls in for, the only guy we have who can head a ball is Katic and he won't be there, in fairness to Kent he does try to get to the goal line and cut it back to feet as opposed to a cross just humped in to players who can't head a ball.
  10. With the amount of chances we make a young McCoist or Hately would be breaking the scoring records.
  11. I can see Liverpool letting him stay for another season then deciding if he is good enough to make the grade down there. I wouldn't expect him to go back as a first team player but more a sub on the bench and backup to minor injuries to the players they have.
  12. Guy has never hidden his desire o play in England and I don't blame him, anyone connected to football in Scotland from a grounds keeper to a player would jump at the chance of going to England. Im just hoping we get a good few with a healthy sell on clause included. I just hope he has the sense to pick a decent team if they come calling, and not ending up at some shit team like Burnley or Bournemouth, if that's what is on offer he would be best staying at us and improving his game. If he goes I wish him well and will support him at his new club.
  13. I heard it's because only 1 guy who looks like a magician is allowed in the team, and since Kent has grown his wee beard back he is the first choice.
  14. It doesn't really matter what we do as they will all be offended, with anything that happens to us it will always just be a bit of banter and not an issue. I used to always think that Scotland needs to stamp all the shit out but with a 2 tier judgement system with 1 for us and 1 for the rest, what is the use and why bother. I have actualy become numb to it all and can think of several 1000 things to spend my time on in a more constructive manner.
  15. Out of everything his position calls for, crossing a ball is the most important and he is hopeless at it.
  16. Always said his level is backup.
  17. I don't see why people bum Tav up so much, we accept his failing in defence as he is an attacking player but his crossing is pathetic. He has a bit of pace and can get forward but his crossing is more hit and hope as opposed to picking a man out. He scores goals but they are from the spot and IMHO Alfie should be taking them to get his goal count up, more goals could mean more confidence. Sometimes watching him with Candeias is fucking torture as they start to play shit tiki taka with each other instead of getting the ball in or making a meaningful attacking effort, which in most cases pans out to just be useless cross. I will give Tav the edge here as unlike Candeias he can actually get the ball past the first man. Tav and Candeias is another fine example of what most people see but our management and players can't see. We don't have a player in the box who can head the ball or even make a decent attempt at it, I love Morelos but even he would admit he can't head a ball and it's not in his game, but nevertheless Tav and Candeias will try and hammer balls into the box to a player who can't head a ball and will have 2 guys from the other team at 6 foot and over who can head a ball to get it away. A better idea would be to get to the byline and play the ball back across at waist high or ground level, this will give our strikers who can't head the ball an advantage as the ball is coming back and play to their strengths as opposed to their weakness i.e. heading the ball. With Kent, fair play to the boy as you can see he isn't an idiot and tries to cut in and IMHO is improving technically. A prime example is the Jack goal against celtic where he went to the by line and played the ball along the ground. Had that been at the other side it would have panned out with Candeias hitting the ball of the first man or Tav with a hit and hope cross which the goalie would have picked up or the CB from celtic would have headed away. We don't have a player who can head the ball so crossing a high ball from out wide will fail in most occasions, it's not that fucking hard to see so how can guys who claim to be pro footballers not see this. Gerrard should be pointing this out to the players, or if the players are being instructed to do this then they should be saying to Gerrard that it's not in their locker. Our tactics aren't that hard to see and how we haven't lost more games is beyond me. They attack, Shagger gets the ball, the other team start running back into position, we give the ball to Worral and whoever his partner is that day so they can pass it back and forth to each other for 20 to 30 seconds which give the opposition enough time to get back into position and get their shape back, after giving them time to get ready we will try to play a long high ball abount midway into their half out wide where it will land at Candeias or Tav and they will start the shit from my 2nd paragraph. Was hoping Grezda would be the guy to put Candeias out the team but it's starting to look like he was £2 million pissed up against a wall, he came injured so we can at least hope for the moment he comes good I suppose. I've heard people moaning about Defoe being brought in to a team which doesn't suit his play so he shouldn't have been bought, IMHO our current strikers don't and never have fitted our style of humping in aimless crosses. We have been lucky so far as Alfie is a good player who chases and hassles players to make his own chances.
  18. I still believe we lack players with any intelligence, none if them have the ability to turn a game or take control of it. We aren't a bad team, but our players are all 1 dimensional and we have a team full of Indians with not 1 chief.
  19. They should really make hashtag comments under a certain amount of letters, took me a while to figure it out. I think it was because I had the word "Saturn" stuck in my mind as I'm a space geek.
  20. Unless money was put in to make money then I don't see the problem. Many wouldn't mind taking a hit for a few quid to see the spivs lose out on a big payday.
