Doesn't really suprise me. If he can keep working on his final ball then he will be a huge asset to any team. The last few games his delivery and final pass have been excellent. He is also using his brain more and if the pass isn't on then its played back. I think for me the best example of the respect he has within the SPL was when Celtic came to Fir Park and their left back Emilio(?) was rendered useless going forward as he was worried about Humphrey running him ragged. I doubt many players are quicker than him in the UK right now.

I would assume that if you were promised a bonus for getting the club to the semi final of the CIS Cup and then left to get a better paid job before said semi final then you really wouldn't come back to the club you quit and ask for the bonus would you? Mercenary fucks.
-
Lets not forget Dundee Utds defence is still shite. So we should get a few goals. 2-1 I think.

When we have a fully fit squad we can beat anyone. As soon as we get a few injuries we struggle. This is down to our paper thin squad. All I can say is that when McCall has had a full squad to pick from we have really impressed. As for signings. All have been very good so far. Jones is an effective sub and likes to get forward - reminds me a lot of JOB. Jeffers when fit is brilliant. Gunning has been a revelation in the CB role. Mo Ross had a very impressive debut. Overall very pleased so far with what he has done and I think the inconsistent results has been down to the fact our squad is so small.

Craig Brown and Archie Knox are owed fuck all. Yes they got us into the semi final, but they quit and walked out on the club so any bonus is instantly void. Pricks of the highest order. Also I would like to apologise for defending Archie Knox as I thought he stayed out of the meelee at full time, but nope he is a total c**t just like his wee fanny boss.

Its between us and Inverness. Everyone else is out of the race. And its down to the games below. A win on Wednesday would seal it I think. Cannot see ICT getting 7 points from those three games. We have to remember that Kilmarnock have just lost their manager and Hearts are on a poor run of form so we must try and get 7 points clear on Wednesday to have a really good chance. Our fixtures: Motherwell v Dundee Utd Hearts v Motherwell Inverness fixtures: Kilmarnock v ICT ICT v Hearts ICT v Celtic

Yeah Saunders is a fantastic prospect but is not a natural right back. My ideal future line up in defence would be: Ross - Hutchinson - Saunders - Hammell. Gunning will be gone next season, unless we can extend his loan deal and I think this may be Craigans final season and we will see him maybe move to a coaching role or into the media circut. The question is where does this leave Hateley? Has had a few shots in the midfield, but just doesn't look comfortable. Good right back, but doubt he would like being backup to Ross, but then again maybe the competition for places will improve his game even more and he could become an even better right back than he already is. Good problems to have I suppose!
-
Thought over the last two game Chris Humphrey has looked a brilliant player. Two fantastic goals, pace and now some thought to the end delivery. Great player.
-
Petty shite from both parties. Boyle is an idiot and Brown can't take getting beaten by us. Fair play to McCall and Knox who know how to act like adults.
-
Aye the lads were brilliant last night. We are in the next block and there are a few who try and get things going, but it dies out after a few verses! Mind you some people just like to sit and watch the fitbaw and there is nothing wrong with that.
-
I think last night proved that reducing the prices increses attendance and also atmosphere, but more importantly could bring in more fans who would have loved last night and want to come back to more games. I have to say last night was the best game I have been at since the Odense game. Both these games were played in front of a full Fir Park. In the long run reducing prices will increse profits at Fir Park, but it needs to be a long term plan. Not just a one off.
-
Suttons knock down for the second goal was world class!
-
amazing tonight. Franny Jeffers is a fantastic player. One step ahead.
-
I would turn Fir Park into a Gladiator arena and if Humphrey doesn't get that cross into the mixer then unfortunatley its a thumbs down and I would release the Lions. I would also have a golden throne and it would be heated for the winter.

The main issue with loan deals is we make no money as a club we just pish it all away on the hope of top six finish and a decent cup run. As a club if we are to be a success we need to either bring through youth players and tie them up to long term deals (ie Murphy) or sign quality players on a free and sell on for big bucks (ie Randolph). We have not done this since we sold Jim Paterson and now we are beginning to feel the effects of it. We will probably get a decent price for Randy (£750,000) as good goalkeepers are hard to find. Kilmarnock are a great example. They have been brilliant this season considering they almost got relegated last season, but thats down to Mixu being very clever in the transfer market, but where does that leave them next season? These guys will be gone and they will probably finish 5th which means fuck all in the grand scheme of things. So its back to square one for the team and no plan for growth.
-
Am I the only one who think Jennings is too slow for the Championship. Does a very good job for us and I think the SPL is his level. He also needs to sort out his discipline. Anyway its all imaterial as after the whole betting shite he will want to be away from Scottish football. He was treated like dirt by the SPL over this whole fiasco. c***s!
-
I am pretty confident we will make it. ICT have a pretty hard run in and apart from the result against us have been pretty poor of late. We on the other hand seem to play well against the 'bigger' teams so I am hopeful we can get points against Hearts and Aberdeen. We could potentially lose them all and still make the top six! the most important game of the season is on the 30th. Win that and we have an amazing chance to make the Scottish Cup Final. All focus should be on that game not the top six.
-
Can Radolph and Craigan just not refuse to play for their country and say they have important club business on that day? Also is it proper internationals or friendlys?
-
Aye we are going to get Aberdeen. The lottery numbers will be 2, 45, 23, 12, 7 and 32 Oh and I predict the end of the world will happen in the year 2300.

I think two wins from our games before the split should see us in the top six. Inverness seem to have lost their way. Dundee Utd will make it as will Killie. So it will be: Celtic Rangers Hearts Dundee Utd Kilmarnock Motherwell I feel Aberdeen and Hibs are just out of touching distance as are St Johnstone. A top six after the season we have had will be an excellent achievement. Kilmarnock...... P27, 39pts Motherwell....... P28, 38pts Dundee Utd..... P25, 34pts ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Inverness CT... P28, 33pts Aberdeen.......... P28, 31pts Hibernian.......... P28, 31pts St Johnstone.... P27, 31pts Here are the fixtures: KILMARNOCK Hearts (A), Motherwell (H), St Johnstone (A), Inverness (H), Rangers (A) + Celtic (H) MOTHERWELL Inverness (A), Kilmarnock (A), Aberdeen (H), Dundee Utd (H), Hearts (A) DUNDEE UTD Aberdeen (H), Hamilton (H), Hearts (H), Inverness (H), Rangers (A), Motherwell (A), St Johnstone (H) + Rangers (H) INVERNESS Motherwell (H), Dundee Utd (A), Celtic (H), Kilmarnock (A), Hearts (H) ABERDEEN Dundee Utd (A), Motherwell (A), St Mirren (A), Hibs (H) + Rangers (H) HIBERNIAN St Johnstone (A), Celtic (A), Hearts (H), Aberdeen (A), Hamilton (H) ST JOHNSTONE Hibs (H), Hamilton (A), Kilmarnock (H), Dundee Utd (A), Celtic (H) + Rangers (H) Its gonna be tight!

Whats the dimensions of the banner and I will look at doing something if you are desperate.

If Rangers or Celtic moved to the EPL then they could potentially become the biggest clubs in the World. Thats a fact. As for us and others around us we could probably compete in the Championship if we could build up the fan base. As for Reynolds. He is a good player. Stick him in the CB role and he will do you a turn. Never played well as a left back for us.
-
Same team that beat Celtic. No brainer.

100% a penalty. He clipped him.
