So you’re saying that various different managers and players since the club was founded have mostly all had this wrong mentality? I think Hibs went about a century without winning a cup, did they all have this same mentality? Is it contagious?

Correct, the way I’ve written it is wrong, when calculating it I had Rangers winning all their post split games apart from us so Hearts drop 6 points post split which I forgot to add in and also only gave them 9pts to the split instead of 12 which made my post split figures add up - Edit required

Ok so I’ve had a quick - we’ll not really that quick by the time I’d finished - look at this to see what could happen, firstly up to the split, Celtic win all their games apart from us - 72pts Hearts win all their games apart us - 72pts we win all our games - 68pts Rangers win all their games apart from the Celtic game - 67pts Post split: we win all our games - max 83pts Celtic win only 3 games and lose to us and any other team - max 81pts Hearts win all their games apart from against Rangers and us - max 81pts Rangers win all of their games apart from against us - max 79pts Obviously there are multiple outcomes of which this is only one but if you’re a dreamer, dream on Note: disclaimer my maths ain’t all that great at times and this could be a load of 🐂 💩

A rangers fan told me today that Rohl is wanted by Spurs and that “Rangers will get Jens” - fuckin delusional or what? Celtic fan says they should offer Motherwell anything they want to get him, I said we’ll start with your left ball to which he replied I’d give my right one as well if it would help.

Sorry mate but I thought he wasn’t that good tonight, gave up on chasing back when he lost the ball at the first goal and too many times he turned back into trouble rather than make a pass to someone in space.

Think this game is going to be a shit fest of a game, weather’s been shit all day so the park won’t be great for free flowing football.

On the three decisions mentioned above did VAR get involved? I know they didn’t for the Motherwell game but don’t know about the others. If they didn’t then it brings into question their impartiality, not for the team involved but not wanting to disagree with the match referee - I do believe that there’s an unwritten agreement between them not to interfere with 50/50 decisions so not to make each other look bad - which in turn makes VAR ineffective. So my view is scrap it or let officials from another country with no bias to teams or officials do the checks.

Going to be difficult to squeeze this game in, 25th feb looks most likely, depending on the cup games it could be the weekend of the next round 7th March if we’re both out or possibly around the 3rd/4th March before that round if we’re still involved or 10th/11th March before the Celtic game. Don’t really want to go further than this and definitely not into April between the last two games before the split.

If he’s happy to come to us for £10k a month, welcome aboard Stephen

Not so sure, that would be a £150k investment. I’d rather spend that on paying towards a player we bought in wages and hopefully get it back when we sell them.

We can all relax - the bbc says we’re not selling him https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cpv7e3pnjw2o

Voted for McGinn as well but pole only shows 1 vote, did you vote?

Hopefully the reply is sorry but you’ve put the point in the wrong place.

Out of curiosity, how often is the pitch played on? Is it only first team games or are other games played on it?

We had SOD and McGinn playing CB against Celtic the other week and that didn’t turn out to bad.
