  1. Friday kick-offs are not a problem, Saturday afternoon kick-offs are not the problem, Hell Sunday or Monday kick-offs are not the problem. The problem is these days are not decided when the fixtures were announced. Saying that hopefully there are 8 unplanned fixture changes next year!
  2. Talking about making opportunities, according to the SPL website we have had less shots at goal than any other team. As for Hughes - sign hIm up pleases.
  3. Scotland has 5 berths. 2 Champions League (1st & 2nd), 3 Europa League (3rd, 4th and Scottish Cup).
  4. Was going to go for Jennings but after re-watching the match for the first 15-20 mins our midfield was lost and slow to react. Backline looks solid, with Crags and Clancy looking a great pairing. Tim "not good enough for Killie so must be shite" Clancy breezed through the game.
  5. Like St Mirren under McGhee I think ICT first game of the season showed us what our wee team on their day can do. But all the games where we have not been at our best but won has been the difference between us this season and others.
  6. TBF so did Craigan in that Q&A from Twitter someone linked to a couple of days ago. He just couldn't take any criticism or was unapproachable at times.

    I hear about this playing in Europe and winning the SPL are big things. Well, I would say playing 4-6 Champions League level teams twice a season is better than being humped by Malmo et al!

    Many on the forums and the family I have that support Birmingham actually blame (after McLiesh) for Faddy being injured as the reason they were relegated. They had no one left who could change a game at a blink of an eye. Don't get me wrong, if asked has McFadden been a success down south - then truthfully no one could say yes. But he hasn't been a failure either. That is why there are still Premiership clubs looking at him in Sunderland, Everton and Wolves. With all but the latter being well established Premiership sides. Faddy's biggest problem has been his injury bill - not his lack of talent or his ability to use it. That and he's one of those players that doesn't have a position in standard British Football mentality.

    TBF one of the most talented doesn't have to mean one of the best. They are not the same thing.

    Trying to find where you post was merited on what you quote. Does "One of" not mean there is more than one...

    Exact same with the one I just spoke too. Just going by the two forums I went on though.

    Everton fans not too impressed. Can't really blame them, seem to get into the team, then be injured, and never really showed what he could do. Although he did score one of the best goals of the season - which featured as SkySports advert the following season...

    If a player does not find a club within one month of his contract running out his former club pays him months wage.

    Frozen out Scotland star? Nowt to do with the fact he has been injured for the last like 10 months
  15. About 6 times as many people as any SPL Motherwell game tbh...
  16. Time to bring in McBride QC. He liks knocking the SFA back to where they belong.
  17. Last time I checked he wasn't charged, only been arrested. If he is charged then the SFA won't need to ask us to suspend him. I'm sure they could do it themselves (or get UEFA/FIFA to do it).
  18. In the "football world" they are totally different things though. Jennings is under investigation for a crime that brings the game into question, and could lead to match fixing charges. If Motherwell have any thoughts of him being guilty then no, he shouldn't play. He should be suspended - if possible without pay - but if Motherwell believe him then I see why nothe shouldn't be allowed to play. Of course, there are bodies within Football that can take it out of our hands, if the Crown Office actually do press charges - guilty or not
  19. Exactly. You don't get an extra goal if it was a screamer or from open play, or if there was no mistakes involved. Never got the whole "yeah he scored x amount of goals but y amount were penalties" Last time I checked all goals count the same in the end. Also, can't be arsed multi-quoting but Davie Boy also spot on.
  20. The official stats - according to the SPL sees us having 2 shots on target and 2 shots off target. With United having 3 of each
  21. It doesn't at Opta which is the Official Provider of Football Stats for the Premier League and UEFA. Not sure what the SPL use, but I doubt they vary too much from Opta.
  22. It will be all about the defences. And ours has been world class this year compared to some of the bombscaring United have done. Their back 5 at times have been so bad it's gone beyond funny!
  23. Of course he should. A forward player should always score one-on-one, never mind when he has rounded the keeper and has the whole goal to aim for.
  24. To be fair the quote from Yabba I think is a little fib to try and get a club to make a move. Why if you have clubs in Europe looking at you would you basically finish with
