  1. Halliday scores. Throwfi Balmer. Take your pick...
  2. The grand entrance that, regardless of content, rarely ends well Losing the crowd - reel it back in... Re-engage, don't alienate!! and make sure everyone knows you're leaving the ignorant plebs behind. For the record, I actually enjoyed hearing about your ideas, but a C- for interacting with the discussion.
  3. You missed Martin Foyle as head of recruitment.
  4. AT LEAST YOU DIDN'T WRITE IT IN ALL CAPS!!!
  5. Given the outcry over the 5G mast, I confidently predict I won't see a St John Stadium, Pettigrew Park or Philliben Field in my lifetime.
  6. Remember when we were a bit disappointed at losing 1 - 0 to Borussia Dortmund away, and ultimately seeing Paul Lambert join them on a Bosman? At least Celtic won't have to worry about any German interest in their players.
  7. Never quite sure who turns down who in these cases. It often seems that candidates come in with big ideas needing big budgets that automatically rules them out.
  8. I have no idea how he'll fare in the Premiership, but he has few sackings and a relegation to his name like many other managers, so is in good company.
  9. Exactly. Even the pro-Sheep team reluctantly admitted we were in decent financial shape - and that was before the Bair transfer and our recent cup run. We have time now to make sure the right structure and investment ideas are fully developed.
  10. "but you shag one sheep..."
  11. I think you're right. A smart move by the club to let us read it in all its entitled glory.
  12. I think that's much easier than guessing whether a handball is intentional. Especially with VAR. A bit like the tracker they can use in cricket lbw appeals to see if the ball would hit the stumps.
  13. Parker definitely had pedigree coming through Liverpool and West Ham, and being on the books at Arsenal. Just goes to show, in case we needed more examples, that early promise doesn't always lead to success.
  14. I didn't think it was deliberate when I watched it in real time. Having see the replays a few times, I still think he instinctively stopped the ball with his hand. I'd actually prefer a rule change for this situation, though, rather than rely on referees' (or VAR's) interpretation of intent. If any player stops the ball crossing the line with their hand, it should count as a goal (like the penalty try in rugby). Even though it would have gone against us at the weekend, I don't think a definite goal prevented by a handball should be penalised by awarding what I believe these days is something like a 66% chance of scoring from the spot.
  15. The IFAB law for the red card is that the handball has to be deliberate: I agree consistency is key and there is a case to be made for Casey's intent, but Souttar's didn't look deliberate to me.
  16. I don't have any problems with the Danzaki signing. It was a creative idea that didn't work out, but in our position we need to try a few new ideas from time to time. He was playing the A-League before we signed him and has made quite a few appearances in the A-League after he was punted. So not a complete no-hoper like a few others mentioned above.
  17. Even if it's not SK's preference, he's not going to change it while we're winning games.
  18. If Rangers are playing at the same level as they are against Hibs today we must have a good chance of a result in the semi.
  19. Tanser's wasn't reviewed because VAR doesn't review 2nd yellows. They got Miller's wrong from the angles I saw, but that's not unusual for VAR. If they are more likely to support the refs' initial calls this season then more power to them - I'm certainly not complaining we got away with one.
  20. Ox should be getting free drinks for life from both Gordon and Casey.
  21. Miller's goal was handball and Tanser should never have been sent off for that tackle. However, given the number of terrible decisions against us last season for similar situations, I'm more than happy to take it - and after St Mirren missed their pen I thought we looked the more likely to score.
  22. It is, so far, but I have some sympathy with him as I always felt we pushed him out the door when the silly money offer came in. At that point I don't think he was making noises about wanting to leave.
  23. Dan Casey. The attitude of Ally Mauchlen. The defensive skills of Derek Murray. Now take your pick...
