  1. My biggest problem is that, even with the best commentators in the world, listening to a game on radio is murder. Not being able to see how close a shot came, if the keeper would have had it covered etc. makes everything seem 10 times worse.
  2. Scott Mullen and Lewis Irons are decent and sometimes there's an ex player joins them. Others can be a bit brutal and forget they need to describe the action and instead end up yelling at the ref like they are in East Stand.
  3. That's why Robinson said he's looking for a right sided defender, presumably. And Hammell is available at left back until the transfer window closes.
  4. Guys like Moult were brought in as part of the scouting system. Just because Robinson hasn't found anyone he fancies in the past couple of weeks doesn't mean it's suddenly a failure.
  5. Haven't had any technical issues with Mixlr in the US. The commentary on the other hand.... (To be fair, Scott and Lewis are very good - some of their co-commentators, not so much).
  6. Oh, I get that fans will be in meltdown if we lose this, but 2 wins in Edinburgh this month are much more important to me this season.
  7. As much as I'd enjoy a cup win over Accies, I'm more interested in picking up our league form over the next couple of months. Given that we will have yet more players missing and more new players in the team, this couldn't be a tougher start for them. Cup-tie, in your face, derby won't give them time to find their feet.
  8. Scottish media, eh? Cifti gives an interview with quotes like the following: And the headline for the article in the Scotsman? Nadir Cifti ‘hasn’t given up on Celtic future’
  9. Previous page. Or did I mistake your comment (and elipsis) for praise... (and according to one of Robinson's interviews in Tenerife, Tanner was injured before he went out there and they were trying to get him ready for the Accies game).
  10. You'd rather have carried on playing after the last Accies game with our injured players missing and no time for the ones struggling for form to recharge and regroup? Mental.
  11. Looked like stats to me - and only over a half season. Seems to me that they were cherry picked to make a point rather than look at the larger picture.
  12. I'm surprised all the Rose haters still haven't noticed Robinson actually likes him as a player and has made him a regular starter. Obviously he is rated by the gaffer and there is zero chance of him being punted. He might choose to leave, of ocurse, but that's a different story.
  13. Good to have another Scottish manager in the EPL - even if it's only until May.
  14. I'm thinking about which one of the regular posters created this fake account, but not worked it out yet.
  15. I suspect the Motherwell FC video captured it too. I don't know what TV evidence was required though. Hartley received a red card and nobody else did. If the referee and linesman submitted a report to that effect that they saw the incident and deemed no other action necessary, that's case closed. I also don't buy in to the conspiracy theory that the Compliance Officers only review things highlighted by Sportscene. Time to move on from this one and hope Hartley has learned his lesson. If you publicly and intentionally wind players up in interviews prior to games (and, let's face it, he obviously dishes out the verbals during games too), you need to be able to handle it when your opponent got the better of you and dishes it back.
  16. From what I saw at the game, Hartley was the only one that should have been punished. He should have been down the tunnel by that point, not getting involved in the Accies celebrations in the Accies half. It was 100% his fault he was suspended - nothing to do with the BBC.
  17. You know Frear was signed in January 2017? Before Robinson took over in Feb 2017 and was made permanent in March 2017? Also, it takes 2 to 3 years to rebuild a team. Also also, targets are identified by our scouting system - and some of them (like Ciftci) have been on our radar since McCall was in charge?
  18. Cadden shouldn't be allowed anywhere near right back. Not that he can't manage to fill that role, just that our midfield is much weaker without him and we miss his forward runs.
  19. There has been zero indication we're bringing in a left back. The only time I have heard full backs mentioned by Robinson, it has always been for the right side.
  20. Checking my account, it was my December that never went through. Well Society didn't notice - it was PayPal that contacted me to say it had been suspended. I'll keep an eye on it to see if January works.
  21. If you want to play stats - Docherty has 8 goals in 108 games, Cadden has 13 goals in 102 games. Not sure what that says about either, but stats are fun.
  22. Wikipedia suggest he's contracted until summer 2019.
