Is it Russ Abbot? Vernon Kay? Bruce Forsyth?

Nijholt / MFC Totally right. Folk on here know diddly squat - Yass is doing waht he's been told to do. More than 75% of these folk would like to kiss keith Lasley's wee short hairy arse - a guy who after failing miserably once to give DUFC the chance to counter attack - did it again identically and exposed us at the back. Football illiterate fuckers! I'm away to search for the Keith Lsaley (or whatever his name is) Is Shite thread. Nah - I forgot he's not the next in line for the Clarkson, Fitzy, Lukas jersey of abuse. There needs to be one player singled ot tho' guys doesn't there? I so wish we had employed Steve Staunton, Gary Mac or Lawrie Sanchez so that we'd be slugging it out with Falkirk at the foot of the table.

Aye that's how it was reported, an initial 6 month loan with the detail of a permanent deal thrashed out if all parties were agreeable after those 6 months.

The East Stand is occupied by The Men Who Swear At Goats

It's early days but Ruddy looks like the best I can remember

Nah, that's Graeme Smith for ya, Splitter of the Old Firm, Chapper of the Scotland manager's door.

an over sensitive pant wetter?

Nah he probably wants it buried 5 pages back like the 'Lukas is shite' thread. Or the Porter is shite thread on the old site.

Dunno mate - you tell me. What's his praying got to do with it. he ties his shoe laces and puts his shin pads on as well. Why comment on his praying?

Could you say that again - I couldn't hear with the noise of yer backpeddalling

No' really - have the courage of your convictions. say what you really mean

Quality What's that got to do with anything?

So The Traynor column. Correct me if I'm wrong "Jim Gannon has correctly called the scottish media's behaviour, he's 100% right that's exactly what they do! - How dare he come out and say that about my pals!" Tit.

Reynolds has had some howlers at left back - was Paisley not a bomb scare in the CIS? Was that performance any worse than Yass has put in at right back?

Fatcalf makes the point time and time again and never a truer word is spoken. A lot of folk on here are really really 'spoilt' in terms of the football that MFC have managed to create over the last decade. We could quite easily be in an Airdrie type predicament I've no doubt. The expectations that some of us have on a Saturday are incredible and In my own pant wetting opinion disrespectful to the efforts going in.

Humphrey is injured so that wasn't an option. He fade in the second and his crossing was poor - but he had a handfull of crosses in the early part of the game from the right hand side that were bang on. He gets the ball and runs at the opposition every opportunity. Defensively his tackling is generally good when he's back

That particular reply was to Jay's post - I hadn't noticed you hade waded in at that point. I'd have James McFadden and Chris Porter back in a heartbeat as well but in saying that - it's just a nothing fantasy statement that means nothing in reality.

Yass will be our right back til the transfer window - I don't think he's a world beater, but I don't think he's shite either. I'd keep him there at the moment as I don't see who's better that we can throw in until the transfer window. We don't have another natural right back - right now. Nobody's arguing that continual improvement isn't required - that's what's happening anyway is it not? Saying someone is shite get him punted, which is the general theme of the thread, isn't continual improvement It's advocatin throwin the baby out wi the bathwater in a strop!

So you kind of agree with me but it's just the psyche of football supporters I don't get. So why butt in straight away and say I'm talking bollocks?

I think it'll be a good a open game 3-3, 3-2 victory somethin like that

You forgot exponent of mock outrage an regular pant wetter. The negatives ain't that bad.

Jay if you think that what has been directed Yass's way constitutes discussing on an intenet forum whether or not they think a particular player is good then fair enough. Me personally think it started as a wee bit more than that and has been continued. Am I not allowed to point out that I think the criticism is overboard and that there are loads of positives that nobody has taken the time to start a thread on. Am I not allowed to provide an opinion that we (as a board) concentrate on and exaggerate the negatives.

Anyone else find it quite funny that the anti keyboard hardmen brigade are every bit as keyboard hardman as the keyboard hardmen?

An excellent start to the season - one loss all season. Hunners of positives after our club was decimated during the summer with no transfer budget to speak of, No TV money and £250K behind the ball because of the pitch. the pitch holding up great in all this weather Big Ruddy playing a blinder Murphy looking like the Murphy of old The Duke looking decent (until he broke his back almost) Saunders developing in to a confident defender Reynolds looking like his old self - another that looks to be developing under gannon. All that means fuck all we've got to find a player to single out and berate. Yass is a short term signing and I think he's better than has been spouted on here (but I thought that of The Duke a few weeks back if you mind right ) and we don't have a right sided full back to throw in that's any better. Some of you lot either have very short memories or you're spoilt with the football you watch on the telly. The state some people get into when a pass gets intercepted or heaven forbid skifs somebodys arse and is deflected slightly off target, or an opponent wins a tackle or a cross or two are wayward - is unbelievable.

Was in the paper talking about extending his contract
