The 2nd refers to people that actually sit and thus study for the test. The two are not related. falkirkNS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like what I observe of his interactions with others, blaming, performing to the crowd to distance himself from blame, walking away in 2012, acting like a bell end with Ferguson. But he has largely redeemed it with his consistency of performance. Morelos' indiscretions are worse, more frequent and he's not repayed it or showed contrition. Talking about McGregor walking away in 2012 when you walked away from Airdrie entirely after supporting them for decades and against us in a cup final ffs DiamondDan, The Dude, Blue72 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morelos should have scored but his chance was a ball flashed across the face of the goal and there’s been numerous misses like that in football. The Shaktar miss was just ridiculous. Open goal and the ball practically passed to the players feet and he got a solid connection with the ball but still somehow put it wide JCDBigBear 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think he is fat you are wrong because if you see him on tv he is clearly not fat. If you think he is unfit then what does that say about our manager and his backroom staff? I don't think even they would allow him to be overweight and unfit. What he does need is match fitness and he'll only get that from playing regularly. He has always been stocky and his leg muscles are bulky. Not known as "El Bufalo" without good reason. He has never been fast. People don't rate him which is their prerogative but the continual assertion that he's fat, overweight and unfit is just nonsense.
