  1. They were knocking balls around in areas that didn't hurt Scotland. They were clinical that was the only real difference. Scotland had some decent chances (Wallace set up two) but the finishing was poor. And don't even get me started on Hanley's free header...
  2. 3 shots on goal, 3 goals. I think you're over-estimating England here by saying the didn't get out of second gear. They don't have anything above second gear, they're a poor lot.
  3. I'm not fussed at all about how the U20's team are doing. Our only concern should be whether or not we can get a couple of players to eventually make the step up to the first team, not how the squad as a whole is performing. We need those rare bits of real quality to come through rather than a good(ish) squad.
  4. Two very poor teams. There's not all that much between us in terms of general play but Scotland's central defence is absolutely woeful. Good to see Wallace having a decent game.
  5. There was a huge irony in all those SNP MSP's coming out in support of Charlie Hebdo and free speech after they'd passed this legislation. They're were either too thick to realise the contradiction or their hypocrisy knows no bounds. Either one is possible with that lot.
  6. Davie Cooper or Kenny Dalglish. It was a couple of years down the line before someone pointed out to me that Dalgish used to play for Them. That kinda changed my views a bit.
  7. You know I actually changed the wording in my post and I originally had posted the exact same wording you'd used above about his legs going like the clappers. There's just no enough of them for him to get up some speed.
  8. He's always looking for a pass and I've noticed he seems to find space a lot but the ball doesn't get to him. My only issue with him is that he doesn't have a lot of pace, I think that's down to his stature.
  9. I don't actually remember him having a save to make on Saturday. He came for a cross at one point but I don't think they had any shots on target.
  10. The thing is, they didn't really consolidate in those four years, they went back the way. If clueless Ronnie had still been in charge then I don't think they'd have been that far in front of us, but unfortunately they appear to have made some reasonable signings that has seen them qualify for the CL and also move on a couple of levels from where they were.
  11. Our record is actually better against them up there than it is at Ibrox
  12. Thought we looked a lot better till the nerves kicked in later on
  13. AEK's doctor has just been unmasked...
  14. Watched the semi-final in the house. Went down to Manchester for the final.....and ended up watching it in a boozer in Blackpool
  15. The thing is, I don't actually wish the player any ill will either. Can understand 100% why he'd want to say the move was off because of 'family reasons'. The villain's in all of this are Aston Villa's chairman for his gobby comments and those in the media who tried to use it to portray us in a bad light. In saying that, I also seen the occasional post on here slating us for it, which I found pretty bizarre.
  16. Windass doesn't have a history of injuries so him being injured right now is just one of those things. Nothing more, nothing less Crooks, I dont know enough about Rossiter does have a bit of a history of injuries but he's young and was definitely worth going for. Lescott is a man nearing the end of his career and any serious injuries at that age, especially in the knees, are a major concern I also think it's pretty clear our training isn't an issue. Last season we had so few injuries that there were a fair number of comments from bitter rivals about how 'lucky' we were on that front.
  17. The most remarkable thing in all this is that someone appears to have slept with him.......twice!!! Assuming the weans are his of course...
  18. Warburton knows the score 'I used to say who are we playing and what is the relationship like there? Now I just don’t bother asking.'
  19. Sutton 'One of us is an embarrassment to the profession' DJ 'Well you can't help that'
  20. I'd have had something about Tom English in there as well. He seems to be badly afflicted with selective hearing as well. Always at our expense of course.
  21. Thankfully I'm flying out the country on Monday and don't need to face many of them.
  22. We'll be lucky to be in the top six? Seriously? When was the last time you were at Ibrox?
  23. You can get an international class centre half for what we spent on Garner? Are you right in the head? Have you been asleep for the past 30 years? You're either simple or you're a taig, which is basically the same thing.
