  1. Well after seeing them I'd probably opt for those who are in form and compliment the RM and centre half beside them
  2. He's 30 years old and if it wasn't for his breakdown and pie eating he would have played a lot more often in Celtic teams of the past few years, to suggest he's below our level is crazy. I'd suspect most Motherwell fans would bite your hand off for a player of his ability if not his his desire to be the other side of the coin to Gazza in the 90's getting involved in as much sectarian shit as many of the OF's support.
  3. Just saw Southgate announced his provisional 33 man squad to be cut by 7 for the final 26 to go to the Euro's (to be announced on the 1st of June). Can't fathom why Steve Clarke didn't do the same to see directly what Griffiths and Gauld had about them.
  4. At his age that's hardly an insightful statement
  5. May end up being like the SPFL Andy ..... two horse race
  6. Some absolute dross being released, no tears shed here. Many should feel fortunate to have picked up a paycheck playing the game rather than putting a shift in any other job. Thought Foley may have got an invite but can only assume (and hope) that targets are identified with the new head of recruitment and from GA's existing knowledge of lower English leagues. However, all this is tempered by the business already announced which is underwhelming and was mostly received with a "aye?" from the majority of our support. Saying that I thought we did astute business last summer and it went to shit soooo ......
  7. Sun (via BBC Gossip) says he scored 11 this term and Dundee Utd and Dundee are also sniffing.
  8. Posting here as there is an element of raising money for MFC, also it may get more traction and therefore more involved in "Club Chat". Official Euro 2020 app has a fantasy football element that seems pretty slick (however it has Steven Fletcher available as a striker). Wondering if there would be much interest in starting a mini-league for SOL? Happy to consider a just for fun option or a £5/10 buy in with half the prize money spread among 1st to 3rd and the other half either donated to the club or go towards a season ticket for someone hard on their luck. Thoughts on either option and buy in amount welcome.
  9. An element of that but everyone in Perth must also be pissing themselves that Hibs also failed to turn up in any shape or form.
  10. Maybe that’s why he was in Angels hotel tonight .... celebrating leaving the sinking ship
  11. 1 post and -2 rep, those are stats Steelboy dreams of
  12. So ..... the game was 4 days ago. Let's get excited for the Euro's ... I've started a thread in "Tartan Army"
  13. Ever consider OTF maybe can't as it could compromise the source and conduit to juicy morsels? There's enough said that if you employ a bit of the grey matter you'll be able to work it out or at least get halfway there. Personally, I feel the chats are enhanced by his input. For a discussion forum centering on football with the demographic being massively, working class, male, aged 20-60, there's some amount of over sensitivity to someone voicing an opinion, a roasting, or risque banter.
  14. Oooooo Taylor Sinclair #takemamoney But maybe wait a few years till he's even worse
  15. The principle is they will become better and richer and the gap opens up further. A solution to make our league more competitive is not to help Rangers and Celtic further.
  16. I object because of exactly who they are. Our league is a two horse race and all this does is widen the gap even further. So the proposal is a further 40 odd players blood themselves in the lower leagues to hopefully progress to the big team. They already hoover up kids because of who they are and their "popularity", it is common knowledge but unspoken of how they are limited to the number of kids they can have on their books so have shadow squads, parents none the wiser. They agreed on a SPFL 11-1 voting structure, investigate every option that presents itself to cut loose, bemoan wee teams in finals getting a half share of seats, whinge about TV rights and how they're kneecapped financially against other European teams. Scotland is their home but they'd relocate to Spain faster than a Post Office armed robber. If it is deemed that a Hearts, Hibs, Motherwell, Killie, Aberdeen and Dundee Utd colts entering lower leagues would enhance their first teams and therefore make the top league more competitive then I'm all for it at the expense of the OF. I'm sure the 100,000 regular attendee's from the rest of the clubs that make up 45% of the total OF (55k at Ibrox 25% and 65k at Parkhead 30%) are a sizable lobby group and fed up of their crap. Don't let any trickle down wealth bullshit con anyone, it has not worked in society evident by the wealth gap growing and poverty rampant. Fuck them and the bigoted boat they sailed up the Clyde in.
  17. To be fair Andy I touted Magliore to be a standout when he signed based on the Blackburn fans views and his reported pace. He’s been rank. Let’s be content even Fergie got half of his signing calls wrong at Man United.
  18. Premier league wages, on the back side of a pandemic when you’re a championship player? He’s gonna sit on his thumbs, look skyward and thank his lucky stars someone at FP was out their tits on crack in mid January.
  19. What the fuck are you talking about? Clap for someone who downed tools and like Vigurs. Even the most ironic of our fans wouldn’t revel in that.
  20. The official club press release on the day he signed is usually a good start.
  21. Livvy would potentially have to pay a transfer fee as he’s on contract till next summer.
  22. What about anything we’ve seen in the past or present made someone offer Lawless an 18 month deal? Alexander was just in the door on the 15th of January but I’m racking my brain on this one.
