Err, aye - that's why I came up with 19 points in 13 games in my calculation and not 39 points. I even showed my working.

Sounds good to me. If he plays 39 games in a season (to keep the maths simple) that means he changes the outcome of 13 games. If even 6 of those are changing draws to wins and the other 7 are losses to draws, that is a gain of 19 points. Even using those conservative figures, a player that can contribute an extra 19 points seems like worth a punt.

Is that a new sandwich offering?

I said it this time last year and I'll say it again. It's the team we have in place when the SPL kicks off that will define our season, not the team we have in place when the Europa Cup kicks off.

That makes sense. Didn't he want to be near his family in Cambridge? That's not too far away.

What colour do you need to be to look like a trialist?

If you read the report, Craig Brown doesn't actually say there will be no new faces if we don't sell Reynolds.

Those 'pagans without the bus fare' are the worst.

No doubt Levein is trying to negotiate another new rule to bring him into the squad.

Where what went wrong? The chase for a European place?

Although, last close season was one of the most entertaining. Until Gannon spoiled it by signing all the players he said he'd sign.

I'll be going to watch the game in a local bar, but knowing the level of football interest over here (even during a world cup) there will likely be more England than US supporters there.

Not sure how accurate it is, but wiki has the Lanarkshire_Cup winners listed. We have lifted the trophy 32 times.

Well, somebody had to do one.

Aye, that's what he said in his interview with the Wishaw Press.

I wasn't going to waste the new patter on a troll regurgitating the same old weekly keech.

Even a blind squirrel sometimes finds a nut.

Sorry chief. I steered clear of the poker thread for a while because I have been tied up at the weekends (especially Sundays) with my outdoor activities and barely managed to play any since Christmas. The snow has been too good to waste this year. Last weekend of the season for our local mountain this weekend, so I'll back in full swing after that. On topic, I still think we will have a win. Dundee Utd's style of play seems to suit our tactics.

If it's not of "merchantable quality" I think you're entitled to take it back, even with a name on it.

Nah, MJC is miserable. Psycho1991 is just a (not very good) wind-up merchant.

My fear was that he wouldn't be able to bring in players of a similar quality as Gannon. I hope it's unfounded, but time will tell.

Comfortable 3 - 1 win for us.

That would have been my first guess.

The official site had this quote:

You can say that again! I did a 6000 mile round trip for that Great day out - and then the game kicked off.
