    calm down dear. boyle had a bit too much red wine. brown is the original jackanory. there is zero chance of brown having any dirt on us.

    Europe

    i'm not. if we win the cup we're in europe (playoff (nancy, odense) round) if we lose the cup final to celtic and they win the league we're in europe (2nd qualifying (braedlibaek, flamutari) round.
  3. delighted with the result. we looked in control for majority but we struggled in the final ten minutes and ended up hanging in. it wasn't the most eventful game but the odds were stacked against us. we played on wednesday while they had an extended rest. mo ross was making his debut, gunning went off injured, stevie hammell was half fit, hateley is carrying an injury, lasley has been struggling but battled through, jones has been out for a month, humphrey was subbed injured on wednesday, saunders was rumoured to be out for the season and mchugh was back after 10 weeks out. after being so inconsistent it's great to get a couple of good wins in a row. important game again on wednesday, hopefully the doubters will doubt and we'll pull another big one out the bag. i've made my feelings on brown clear in other threads. at the game today i peltered blackman and i'm glad he was like a man down to them, however i met the guy a few times when he was at mfc and you couldn't have met a sounder guy and as i understand it him going to aberdeen wasn't his idea. blackman seems to have suffered much more from the move than we have, i hope he finds a bit of form when goes back to england.

    judging by pie and bovril and other fan sites most punters see through him even if they don't sympathise with us. it probably depends on what you what you view as the public. in my experience the majority of people that put their money up for tickets,no matter who they support (including the of), have a good grasp of what is going on in the game. his public reputation isn't going to be wrecked but i think amongst the people who truly care and matter he is diminished. i was played for a fool. i sang his name all the way home from aberdeen when we beat mcghee's team 3-0. i sang his name in denmark. i sang his name at tynecastle when we hammered hearts. i believed him when he said he was sticking by mfc then he shafted us a day later. brown was doing a decent job with an honest bunch of players. he left for more money to manage a bunch of wasters and now he's launched this bitter tirade, it won't have gone unnoticed.

    Aberdeen

    at about 80 mins i said the humph was my motm. after las went down injured then came back on clearly in pain my man crush kicked in so i had to vote for him. chris deserves the award. two goals in two games is superb. props to mo ross as well. very impressed.

    mate, i disagree. he thinks he knows what's he doing but he doesn't have a clue. when he left us he shamed himself. he showed his true character and even although the mainstream media apolgised for him the vast majority of supporters in scotland knew he shat on us. the truth and what is reported in this country are completely different things. before he shafted us he had an impeccable rep and legacy. after he done the dirty proper supporters recognised he was a chancer and the lies he has told this evening will only have enforced this.
  7. diamond and hartley are out for aberdeen. normally big zander missing out would be a boost for them but the big slovenian(?) boy is even worse. with him and considine in the middle of the defence you have to hope their will be goals in this for us. i'm not actually that bothered about brown now either but i dare say come three o'clock and with a few beers in me i'll be up for giving him a warm welcome.
  8. if we get to the final said fan is going to need some sort of disguise to get himself into hampden.
  9. that was superb. it was great to see that we still have a performance like that in us 40 odd games into a very long season. walking out the east last night reminded me of the aalesunds game, 3 goals, a clean sheet and everyone with a smile on their face. we've got four huge games coming up now, if we can make the final and the top six it'll have been some season. we completely bossed dundee united from start to finish, jenno and lasley are unplayable when they are on form and the front 4 made it count with goals. hammell and hateley were immense as well and if they were playing with knocks no one would have known. big gunning was top notch to, i think he knew he owed us a performance after killie. there seems to be a real belief amomgst the players right now that we can go on and it win it, you get the feeling that they're desperate for a crowing achievement to what has been a good few years. i think we're seeing the benefit of all the big games we've played in recently - the 6-6 and 3-3, the euro games, the cis semi - as the players seem to rise to the occasion and have confidence in their ability to put in a performance and get a result. hopefully judas broon slithering back into fir park on saturday will inspire the team and the support to keep the intensity up from the off. the banner said 'time for new heroes' and we won't have many better chances to make history, fingers crossed we make the most of it.
  10. the 13 '91 shirts were superb. i came in at 20 to 8 and i was proud as punch when i saw them. well done to everyone who made them and held them up.
  11. just in case this is a bit vague i mean..... the lip this is a message to you...
  12. i agree with the attendance. i don't think there was 3500 united fans tho. i'd wager at 2700.
  13. superb goal! superb effort! doubters get it right fucking up you!
  14. after a week of hegarty in charge i'm going for five nil to us.
  15. i'd probably invest half a million a season while i went on a multi year round the world bender. after i got fed up with that i'd return home, take the reigns and unleash a reign of terror. i'd make vlad romanov look like a model chairman and anyone who slated me in the media or online would get an instant life time ban. speirs. leckie. traynor. young. keevins. all banned from fir park. old firm fans banned from fir park. i'd also put lazyboys and a big jacuzzi in down where i sit in the east tae.
  16. firstly i think 14 is some kind of legal cut off. you see a lot of gigs that are advertised over 14s. the idea of us doubling our season ticket base isn't possible imo. we had about 5000 at the semi final and that was a big one off game, would every single person there buy a season ticket?
  17. my point is that we all thought we were downsizing last season and it turned out that we spent as much on wages as we did when we finished third. if butcher could find mcdonald and malpas mccormack surely gannon could have got us at least one creative player who might be worth something if he is transfer guru some people think he is cracked up to be. i enjoyed having ruddy and jutkiewicz here but we must have been paying an absolute fortune for them and yassin. jenno was obviously a great signing, coke wasn't and the jury is still very much out on hateley and humphrey.
  18. we need to stay away from loans and one year deals next season. there seems to be some sort of myth that jim gannon was some sort of transfer market guru but the facts are that he got the same level of financial backing as mcghee but couldn't sign us one player who will be a sellable asset for the club (even malpas managed that). we need more signings along the lines of sutton and randolph. guys who appear to be our level but have a good chance of improving and building around. we have to get away from filling important roles in the team with loan players as it leaves you chasing your tail at the end of every season.
  19. exactly. if we get 4 points from the sheep and united games and celtic beat ict on saturday then ict will have to win at killie to stay alive. st johnstone play killie, rangers, celtic and dundee united and have only scored 1 goal in their last 6 league games. nae chance they'll catch us.
  20. i meant to quote davie boy about the 3 on 1. fair play for being drunk. fat cubans are shite.
  21. jenno has been a terrific player for us, he's the sort of guy you love in your team. he's great on the ball, has amazing energy and is hard as nails. when jennings and lasley are bossing a game it doesn't get much better as a well fan. sadly i think for his own good jenno has to head back south. since the hearts game it seems like he gets booked every week. if he goes south for a clean slate i will have no complaints.
  22. jones gave him a diabolical pass.
  23. this makes me much more confident. you said we wouldn't get within three of them at tannadice. you are a diddy.
