  1. Just seems to have an auto-charge function. He runs about like a maniac, gets chopped and looks like he's crocked. Then 10 seconds later, jumps back up again and off he goes. If he has a strong World Cup he could bring in a nice transfer fee. Not that I want him to leave, but he's been my player of the season. Fantastic business bringing him in.
  2. Same players, though, and they were fortunate to beat us at Celtic park with the dodgy pen. And just as reminder, only Falkirk have picked up 3 points at Fir Park this season.
  3. Justin Amaluzor playing his part in Gimsby Town's first minute opener in the League Two play-off semi final.
  4. Our starting 11 last time we cuffed them at Fir Park was: Ward O'Donnell Sparrow McGinn Koutroumbis Slattery Fadinger Watt Priestman Said Just
  5. Last time we beat them with SOD, Sparrow, McGinn and Koutroumbis at the back and no centre forward.
  6. From Skippy Sunday to Watt Wednesday.
  7. I'm pretty sure he knows what he's saying. What's the use of pointing out any technical, tactical or performance issues in an interview?
  8. He'll be working on the issue in training, but I'm all in favour of managers backing their players in public. We might not have been at our best, but we found a way to get a point against a Hearts team that's very difficult to play against.
  9. Dug that one out from somewhere. Hope Papa Fadinger is back for the next one. Take your pick...
  10. Even if we just have Fadinger and Johnny K to start, we'll be much better. But McGinn would be ideal.
  11. Hearts were lucky in the last meeting, so swings and roundabouts. I predicted tonight would be a draw, and I still think we'll beat Celtic.
  12. Professional footballers really need to get their act together and schedule babies for the off season.
  13. When I moved to England in the late 1980s, it was almost impossible to find any coverage of Scottish football on TV, radio or in the papers. Every once in a while I got my hands on a Scottish Sunday newspaper and, even less often, if the weather was right in the evening, I could pick up Radio Scotland on medium wave. When I moved to the US in the late 1990s it was, not surprisingly, even more difficult. Fast forward to 2026, and not only is the Motherwell game being broadcast live here on Paramount+ tomorrow, the Arbroath v Dunfermline second leg is also on live today. Technology is grand.
  14. He kept being a boyhood Rangers fan a bit quiet during his time here Will be interesting to see if he continues coaching. He's definitely a huge JBA fanboi. One of the few players I enjoy listening to when he talks about the game.
  15. I enjoy the podcast, but the presenters need to sit closer to each other - preferably beside each other - so the guest doesn't need to keep looking from left to right like they're watching tennis.,
  16. I'm not surprised. Banking IT is an archaic mess!
  17. Wait until you hear about a Celtic scout watching Just!
  18. I'm happy to report we get most of the good UK comedies over here sooner or later, and the ones that don't make it are always available via VPN. Even happier to report Mrs Brown's Boys is not one that is ever shown.
  19. You need to get some velcro letters for the kids' jerseys, because players rarely stick around at clubs these days - even the big clubs.
  20. SCRUM is just some fancy words for only building what you have time to build. If it's not working, it's usually because the people running it don't really understand it (like not including time for testing, or prioritizing the wrong things). Extreme Programming on the other hand is mince in its purest form.
  21. Does that make me more or less likely to find Mrs Brown's Boys funny?
  22. Even with investment we're not going to compete on wages with any big team that wants to step in and take a player or manager. That's OK, though. Our model is to offer players different opportunities. For some like Just, it's to get some quality playing time ahead of the World Cup. For other slike Watt, it's to get their career back on track after struggling for a season or two. And if you are a talented youngster like Miller, we can help get you a move to a top Italian league. I have no idea if Jens will be off or not, but either way I expect us to sell 2 or 3 of our high value players in the summer and continue down the same path for recruitment of fresh faces. And if we need a new manager, I expect the next one to be in the same mould as JBA.
