  1. It's old school. In Scotland, it used to be the home team that changed. Fir Park, midweek under the lights, white kit. Classic. Still, it's nice that you managed to find something else to moan about even before kick off.
  2. It's certainly a low risk, high reward option. As a loan I presume we are only picking up part of his wages and if for some reason it doesn't work out we can look at other options in the next window. If it does work out, then everybody wins. There is no chance a club like ours is can afford an on-form, first choice striker so we either need to take a chance with someone from a lower league hoping they can step up or someone with a decent record looking to get back on track.
  3. Not while they keep winning in Europe. He seems to get them set up exactly right in those games, but struggles sometimes in Premiership games.
  4. Turnbull scoring the easiest goal of his career.
  5. Can't really judge his recruitment given how recently he was appointed, and the amount of time he had before the window closed. For all we know there were other deals in progress with GA that were nixed because Hammy didn't want them or the player changed their mind after GA left. It should be our scouts that are finding targets anyway rather than the manager.
  6. We certainly need some perspective. He made 10 appearance last season and hasn't started a game for Burton Albion this season. I think the most minutes he has is 35. If we can get up him to speed and keep him fit he'll, of course, be an asset. With his recent record, however, he could be keeping Jake company.
  7. I certainly hope it works out, but my head says it's a big risk. Disappointed grizzlyg didn't hit us with a "Motherwell gone for a Burton" though.
  8. The team we fielded against ICT was set up to attack a struggling Championship team. While I hope we are still going to field a team designed for attacking, we need to be a bit more tactically astute against Utd and be prepared to defend more often.
  9. Do you have some insight into the legal negotiations between the clubs, player, agent, league rules or are you just throwing out a kneejerk reaction to journo talk?
  10. Stuttgart finished 15th last season (missing the relegation playoffs on goal difference it seems), so I don't think they'll be troubling the hoop measurers in Euro competition this season.
  11. In the unlikely event of the public getting rid of the current mob in Westminster, it won't be before the dark nights and high bills kick in. So early kick-offs might be worth considering.
  12. I don't think he even left as the player he once was thanks to the injuries he picked up in his time here. Of course, it's quite possible other Scottish clubs are "looking at" him. He had some success in our league and it would make sense to keep tabs on him like scouts do for many players. Not even close to the same thing as looking to sign him, though.
  13. If he's running, he won't be out the building until Tuesday.
  14. Maybe Accies will take McCarthy back. He certainly helped fund their money laundering, tax avoidance, football investment scheme.
  15. So, overall, it sounds like if we get relegated, we have the players that will perform well against bottom half Championship teams?
  16. The dream is alive!!* Take your pick... *EDIT: just don't look at the draw for the next round
  17. Good to see Lennon Miller get some minutes too.
  18. We don't usually get League Cup games. The exception seems to be if we are chosen as a live game for telly, then we can use their feed.
