  1. I wondered if he was watching City v Real on a laptop He wasn't watching the same game that I suffered
  2. I've been watching us for 50+ years and can never remember an outfield player missing a game with a sore thumb
  3. His tinkering has been bizarre at times and has cost us Sterling was MotM last week and would be a first pick in everybody's book today, either at LB, if not CDM beside Lundstram or RW with Sima on the left. To start Boracic, Dowell and Silva and leave Sterling on the bench beggars belief
  4. I tend to agree but on my "out" list of 18.... 7 are out of contract - the only one worth considering was Lundstram but his wage demands will be too high and his legs look heavy at the business end of the season and that will only get worse moving forward 2 are loans 2 are on loan and likely to leave (3 if you add in Cifuentes actually) That leaves the challenge of getting rid of Goldson (big wage may be an issue) Dowell, Lawrence, Davies - can see championship clubs paying modest fees for them, that's their level S Wright, Dessers may be challenging Raskin has a decent rep and Belgian u21, just think our jersey is too heavy for him but we can get a fee for him IMHO at least 12 to 15 will be out and I'd guess that PC would agree tbh
  5. Out McLaughlin, K Wright, Goldson, Barisic, Lundstrum, Dessers, Lammers, S Wright, Raskin, Dowell, Roofe, Jack, Lawrence, Balogun, Davies, Hagi, Silva, Sima At least £250k in wages to utilise Keep Butland, Tav, Souttar, Yilmaz, Diomande, Sterling, Cantwell, Matondo, Danilo, McCrorie Sign Cortes Also keep King, Devine, McAusland, Yfeko, McKinnon, Rice, Lowry, Lovelace as squad as all need a chance to show what they can do and they should be back up at worst rather than high wages like Davies, Dowell, Raskin, Dessres etc Need to sign 2 x CH, LB, CDM, CAM, Winger, 2 x CF as a bare minimum I like Sima but we can't afford him unless we pull the league out of the bag and get automatic CL and even then I think we can find better for the suggested £7m
  6. Since Benfica on 14 March today was our 3rd game with at least a week between each ffs
  7. if we win the next two we will be at home on the final day as top at the split apparently so unless they go first three away that won't happen if we're top I'd expect A Hearts or Dundee A(tarriers) H Kilmarnock or St M A Hearts or Dundee H Kilmarnock or St M
  8. I was jumping through the air like a madman because I thought he'd scored and the ball was in the net until I realised it had hit the back stanchion. Would have been Edu on steroids
  9. Given his notice period he'd still be on gardening leave in Jack Butland's testimonial season
  10. You can rest assured it won't even be rolled or worked on between today and Wednesday Our last 3 away games in the league have been St Mirren, St Johnstone and Kilmarnock's carpet. NONE have been fit to play top level football on Wednesday will make those look like prime Wembley
  11. If that's the case, and I've no reason to doubt you, then the SPFL are fuckin clowns. There's no reason why they can't allow one fixture to run over and have two sets of fixtures prepared if need be. Infinitely better than playing games behind closed doors. On another note imo Rangers should be insisting on contingency plans for Wednesday NOW. There's heavy rain forecast on Tuesday and rain on the other days too though less. Playing on pitches like St Mirren and St Johnstone's ploughed fields is a leveller and not conducive to playing football. Dens will be like a ploughed feed with areas of bog flung in The fact that teams don't roll their pitch or cut their grass when us or the tarriers visit (occasionally boasting about it) sums up the tin pot league perfectly
  12. He came across like a greeting faced dick tbh Lots of what he said regarding not playing behind closed doors or at Airdrie made sense but the bit about delaying the post split fixtures is bollocks. Both teams are doing nothing on cup semi weekend and the midweeks before and after. First post split fixtures are 3 weeks away ffs, Motherwell need to fit in 2 fixtures and Dundee 3 in 22 days. They made us play 7 games in 17 days including 5 league, a cup final and UEFA final
  13. This is the crucial point The difference between CL and EL for us next season will be in excess of £25m. Win the league and we can hand PC £15m + anything generated and still comfortably satisfy the Financial Sustainability rules. Freeing up the wages of Borna Roofe McLaughlin Sima Silva Balogun Jack Getting others out with fees and feeing up wages (easier said than done tbs) Davies £1.5m Raskin £3m Hagi £3m Lammers £2m Dowell £1m Matondo £2m Dessers £2m Cifuentes £2m Wright £0.5m That's a potential £18.5m. We won't get the lot but if we could get £12m and use £6.5m to secure Diomande (obligation) and Cortes (option) then we could have about £20m to sort out a first choice CB, LB, CM, CF and RW with ample wages to offer. There's 16 players listed above and at least 10+ won't be here next season We'll still have Butland (McCrorie) Tav, Goldson, Souttar, Ridvan (King, Yfeko, Devine) Lundstrum, Cantwell, Sterling, Lawrence, Diomande (Lowry, McAusland, Rice, McKinnon) Danilo, Cortes (Lovelace) The forward line needs a lot of attention With EL money we'd need to be very creative In PC we trust
  14. Joking aside this prick should be getting hammered for this
  15. They've got Don Robertson of St Ninians on duty tomorrow He won't let them down
