  1. There's another first half gone by without a single shot on target. Against Ross County. At home. Surely this can't be right?
  2. Almost felt sorry for their keeper at the second - talk about "rooted".
  3. Nothing will change the points and goal difference columns, granted, but getting one or two key players back who might swing the next game for us is surely worth considering. I also think you're on a sticky wicket if you expect the post mortem on a footie discussion forum not to run on a bit beyond 4:46 following a match with so many talking points.
  4. I suspect a large factor in his decision was the wild appealing from just about every member of the Saints team, including their fucking goalie, who was only marginally further away from the incident than Thomson. The only thing that should have swayed him was his assistant's lack of action, but no, he just had to unleash his inner fud.
  5. I think he genuinely thought he could get to the ball, or at least block it, but the panel may be sceptical about whether that was actually possible without going through the player. Whatever the outcome it was some burst of pace from the big man to get there at all - if that had been Hammy he'd have got to the bye line just as they were kicking off for the restart.
  6. Absolutely agree. If any member of the Well Society happens to run a micro-brewery somewhere between here and Aberdeen, I'll put my name down for that trip now.
  7. My new away top arrived this afternoon, just in time. Great looking piece of kit. Not that I'll actually get to a game with it until later in the year, but I'll be huddled by the crackly radiogram in it tomorrow night in the hope it might finally replace my lucky match day pants from 1991.
  8. Hearts finish third, after a 2-2 draw. We avoid Hibs too , as they'll finish top after Ross County fail to beat Arbroath.
  9. No need to worry about Hearts as it stands - they're losing 2-1 to Dunfermline and are currently lying third.
  10. Have to confess, I've stood outside Fir Park in the pissing rain with my official autograph book, desperate for some vicarious reflected glory. Mind you, I was only six.
  11. Beautiful from Bowman - what a difference a little bit of confidence might make. Great ball from McHugh too.
  12. Much better second half from both teams so far, us especially. Can't help feeling we'd have had another goal or two by now if a hungry Moult was out there.
  13. Surely, if we absolutely must knock aimless long balls forward, we should at least try to get them within 10 yards of a despairing team mate?
  14. Looked a pretty good reaction save after the defence went AWOL. He had no chance with the rebound for which - you guessed it - the defence was AWOL.
  15. Try http://www.streamgaroo.com/tv-stream/united-kingdom/bt-sport-1-uk-live-stream
  16. Technically, it's punctuation. This one's going to penalties.
  17. Indeed - subject, of course, to said football being slightly less pish than last season, otherwise all this patter will seem like blue-remembered hills by comparisons.
  18. We've talked about goals, and we've talked about hopes, but my dream would be that all the new signings gel immediately. We win our first five games and then the momentum and confidence carry us on a Leicester-like run to the top of the table. The culmination of this dream would see Celtic coming to Fir Park for the first post-split fixture, 14 points behind after we've pumped them three times already, and shitting themselves as total underdogs. Needless to say, we horse them 5-0 to take the title, and go on to lift the Cup a month later after beating Rangers by a similar margin. And then the little boy woke up...
