  1. Aye but apparently Houston is resting players tonight.
  2. I was at the game last night, and have hardly missed one in the last few years, but and I can't say I agree with the opening post for MANY of the reasons given. Everyone has different priorities and financial restrictions and I am well aware my attendance of all home and away games will need to be adjusted in the future. For what reason I don't know but it will surely come. For me the team let the fans who did go down by folding like a house of cards as soon as they scored. To come out of this season with (so far) no wins over the OF is a joke considering they have their worst teams in recent memory and we SHOULD have beat Rangers twice and again blew a great chance last night. I'd imagine that the fact we more often than not lose in Glasgow (our last visit was a 6-1 drubbing) may have an impact on people attending as well. Just my opinion mind.
  3. I think (and hope) they will have the league won by the time the weekend is over. That means they have taken mavimum points against Dun Utd and Hearts and that suits us perfectly.

    Sadly, would agree with this as well. McGeady run him ragged on a few occasions. In saying that he has been brilliant for us all season and I really hope he is with us next season.
  5. Would agree with that. Or maybe he is 6' 3" and when he jumps he goes to 5' 8".
  6. Spot on. Got what we deserved in the end imo. Bottled it as soon as we scored. Sadly, don't have any confidence that we could take the lead gainst the OF, home or away, and see it out to the 90 like so many other 'provincial' teams in the SPL can do. I have made my opinions on Fraser known on another thread. The worry is Craigan and Lasley picked up injuries, Ruddy is still out and Lukas, for his own benefit, needs to draw the curtain on season 2009/2010. We could be really understrength going up against Dundee Utd on Sunday. Rather perversley at least this win keeps Cetic out in front in second.......and keeps Utd away from it. The Euro dream lives on. At the moment, based on the last three performances and the very difficult games coming up, and despite usually trying to think positive, I can see 6th becoming more of a reality.

    Makes sense. Thought he was brilliant during that first half.

    Free Kicks

    Never mind that, get the short corner pish stopped. O'Brien usually the culprit We are wasting at least one free cross into the opposition 6 yard box every game with that nonsense.
  9. A liability. IIRC there was a point in the first half where a Celtic forward outjumped Fraser for a ball. The player went for it with his head (and won the ball) and Fraser with his outstretched (up in the air) arms. What are Fraser's boots made of? Lead? Even Broon said on the radio after the game that Ruddy might have came out and collected the crosses that were responsible for the two goals. If I was Fraser that would be enough to see my confidence hit a new low. McGhee signed him and pissed off. Gannon didn't want him and I am 100% convinced Broon doesn't either. If Broon is here next season we will have someone other than Ruddy and Fraser between the sticks. Plus I bet you McGhee doesn't come in for him if he gets shot of Clangers. Fraser is a number 2 keeper at this level. Pun intended.

    Just back from the game. Not sure why Craigan was subbed but I thought he was immense in the first half and had Keane in his back pocket at times. For that I picked the Captain.
  11. Shames the lads got pegged back after being 2-0 up. Still on a fairly decent run though.
  12. Gotta love that optimism!
  13. Depends which way you look at it. Say we sell him for £600,000 in the end. Will Brown get a £200,000 kitty to splash out on new players for the squad? No. Will Leeann get a chance to offer the current crop (Jennings, Hateley, Lasley, etc.) decent, fairly competitive (to other SPL/League One clubs) wages and possibly do the same when it comes to free transfers and loans. Yes, I think so. As much as I rate Reynolds I WANT him to go. His transfer could see us retaining the backbone of our current squad AND maybe bring in a good few more. We are also doing not too bad, cover wise, for Reynolds position as well.
  14. Ah! Not good news. Hopefully the club get to secure another deal quite soon. Or Ruddy heals up real quick. Fraser has went from being the second choice to the only choice. He won't get a better chance than this though to stake his claim for next season.
  15. No harm to the guy but I hope he doesn't play 1 minute for us this season. Welcome aboard all the same
  16. Oddly enough Radio Five Live announced at the end of the game today that County would be in the Europa League next season. The media (radio) can't seem to make their minds up.
  17. It's possible but I think he makes a pretty solid right back. Would be reluctant to move him if he continues playing the way he has been.
  18. Hope this isn't an early indication Hateley is away.
  19. Would be over the moon with the same result we got there earlier in the season.
  20. You were always going to get on for just a wee bit. Celtic fans are in meltdown.
  21. I believe nethertonwellfan was just on YourCall sinking the boot in. Well played.
  22. Would the club have had to agree to these times and dates? Decision made for extra revenue via TV money etc.
