Shuggie Sproat. Famous for the tache, "Shuggie Shuggie, swing on the bar!", marking opposing centre forward a the half way line when we were taking a corner, having a snowball fight with fans while the play was in the other half.

Who says they are gone? Who says they won't be replaced? We have lost better players than those 2 and gone on to not only survive, but improve. It's not like this is a new situation for us and we seem to cope. Financially we have taken a hit recently because of our lack of selling, so it's inevitable that sooner rather than later we need to shift some bodies out the door.

Mostly due to not selling a player for quite a few years, I believe. We budget for one a season and haven't sold any for quite a few seasons.

I 100% believe that Murphy is a transfer target and it certainly makes sense to sell him on. But if figures are being discussed with anyone outside the 1 or 2 people that are working on a deal, then someone at the club needs to be sacked.

'Fishul highlights are inconclusive too.

It flashed up briefly for me when I installed the app and haven't seen it since.

Gannon had a pretty big rebuilding job to do.

Exactly. We have a small squad and limited finance. To pay a player for 6 months and not use them would be a farcical waste of resources. Any player with half a brain that wants to move on should be trying to impress potential suitors.

I see on the Official Site the matchday programme will be available for download to iPad / iPhone. Great for people like me that only rarely get to games and hopefully a chance to raise a few more pennies for the club. Further details here.

Exactly the point though. It wasn't about the football on the pitch (which was far more often than not, just dire).

You're confusing raw with poor. That team was relegation fodder and would have struggled to get back into the SPL. People enjoyed that team because we were surviving administration - the fact that we were still alive gave fans a different perspective. Put that same team out now with the same results and this place would be in flames.

I don't think he is. Not from his negativity, at least, but more for his poor efforts at maintaining his 'miserable' persona.

Does that not usually imply being supportive? Or are you one of those post-modern ironic supporters?

In last 5 years in the league we have won 9, lost 3 and drawn 7. None of which has any bearing on tonight's game.

Aberdeen scoring a last minute goal against QoS in last season's Cup run has no relevance to tomorrow's game except to feed your depression. Remind us of your prediction from last year's Dundee Utd. cup replay.

How many last minute goals did the score in last season's Scottish Cup? (clue: 1) None of which makes any difference in Tuesday's game.

Don't forget big Hamish McAlpine when he was up at Tanndice.

I think we miss Jennings's ability to disrupt things in midfield. Defending isn't just down to the back four. The guys in the midfield should at least be slowing things down and giving our defenders a chance to regroup and position. Having said that, I still see far too much backing off and poor marking.

tl;dr

From a PK?

They might allow it, but my bank told me I had to sort it out with the insurance company myself. Aye, that was you, Bank of Scotland.

Hoping for an early goal as there is no doubt we will be up against parked bus tactics.

Probably just banks being banks then. I had issues in the past with a Direct Debit to an insurance company. When they took my payment out twice (on more than one occasion) the bank told me that a Direct Debit is basically a contract that allowed the insurance company to take out payments whenever they wanted and the bank couldn't stop them. If the Standing Order was set up to pay out 4 times and the bank paid out 8 times, then it's the bank's error, no?

If it's a Standing Order then I think it's the bank's fault for paying out too much and you should try and sort it out with them directly. If it's a Direct Debit, then it's the Society's fault for requesting too many payments, and they will need to refund you. Either way, it's a complete pain, but in the past I have had much quicker resolutions to Standing Order mistakes.

Good luck trying to sign Chris Humpreys.
