MFC TV interview with Head Groundsman says it's required with the new pitches every couple of years otherwise it gets compacted and can cause drainage problems.

Was the home or away leg you're talking about?

Hope Rangers don't get their spot back, eh?

Quinn is the Fir Park version of Riordan. We don't need that kind of publicity again.

If Liverpool start off next season the way they finished this one, I'd fancy our chances!

Just because Higgy is big doesn't mean we need to lump it up to him. We can still play it on the deck and pass it to him to hold up when needed.

Nae buases allowed.

Couldn't afford Riordan's bail.

Nah. Then we'll lose his posts like when he was trying to explain why Pat Nevin = Fred Goodwin.

Is the money of an occasional attendee not worth as much now?

That's pretty impressive on the basis of one pre-season friendly. Were you one of the posters who wrote off Chris Porter and the Duke after their early performances?

He certainly looked a decent prospect any time I saw him on the MFC TV highlights.

While he has to take some responsibility, when you are that age you depend on good advice from your agent and your family. I think it's fair to say he was badly advised in this case.

I'm still waiting.

I'm not disagreeing, and think we would have a viable league without them. Unfortunately, the Chairmen of most of the 'lesser' teams don't see it like that.

Of course, their counter argument will be the Rangers dough gave them sufficient funds to survive relegation.

Bet you never thought you'd see the day when you'd have to worry about Champions League regulations!

From today's Times.

And then they'll buy Ross County (you heard it here first).

Been much simpler if they had just relegated them already.

Link up on the Beeb now shows fans with 2 banners: "TRUCK OFF MILLER - YANKS NO THANKS" and "MILLER TIME - NO THANKS TO ASSET STRIPPING YANKS" But it sounds more likely he was scared off when he finally had access to the accounts.

Only if we knew we couldn't honour the contracts when we agreed to them. Otehrwise, it was just poor business judgement. Rangers, on the other hand, knowingly cheated.

Mass exodus, signing panic on the forums - is it summer already? The cold facts of the current climate are that clubs are cutting budgets and there are more players than there are clubs. I'm sure whatever happens by the time we kick off our (brief) Champions League campaign, we will still have a decent team to put on the pitch.

Aye, but he's not going on his holidays, he's trying to improve his career. And at Blackpool he could stay beside all the rich footballers in Southport or Lytham.

I just a born cynic
