Christie needs a.break.
Christie will get a break soon enough, a whole seasons worth of a break
-
Sevco 1 up after 3 minutes
surely not, the best tactic when it comes to playing celtic is to sit deep and absorb wave after wave of pressure.
-
Shafted by tv again.
If we get through to cup semi final then we have yet another game with a 12.15 kick off.
Quele surprise
Wankers.
the only consolation is I don;t see any confirmation that it's Hampden...yet
-
Maybe he is not better, but he sure as hell deserved a chance to show us what he could do over the course of 6-10 games. If we had signed an experienced keeper to replace him with then fair enough as that's what DM wanted, but another young keeper was just another kick in the balls for our youth system.
Another fucked up bit of thinking from our manager.
Yes, I absolutely 100% agree. We've kept on to Rogers, loaned him out over the past couple of seasons, surely that was because he was seen as a potential number 1. You take him back into the fold to sit on the bench as cover, then when that cover is required you bring somebody in and shite all over him.
If I was him I would be absolutely fucking livid. If he isn't capable of stepping up to the plate then don't have him warming the bench, it's an absolutely fucking ridiculous state of affairs.

It'll be a back to the walls performance, but if means 3 points, I'll take it.
Woodman
Logan
Arnason
McKenna
Shinnie
O'Connor
McLean
McGinn
Christie
GMS
Rooney
You've dropped Considine but in all honesty I'd also drop Woodman, Logan and O'Connor from that starting line up.
Problem is, as has been mentioned previously in other threads, who to replace them with.
-
I'd go with:
-----------------------Woodman----------------------
Logan----O'Connor----------McKenna---------Considine
------------------Ball-----------McLean--------------------
McGinn---------------Stewart-------------------------GMS
------------------------Rooney-----------------------------
We're fucked and with that defense we'd be fucked before half time.
Considine will be put to the sword as any half wit can see that we are shaky as fuck down the left. Add AoC into the mix and we're completely shite down the middle.
Ball, I'm sorry, in his last outing he was marginally less useless than Tansey was against the hun.
Having well and truly made a cunt of it against Hibs on Saturday I fully expect some Calderwood type tombola selection. The tims have to travel back from their Europa game on Thursday for this, even extra time and pens on a really heavy pitch wont be enough for us to give them a game.
Defeatist or realist? I'll leave that up to you.
-
I reckon you need to avail yourself of a pair of the strongest lenses your shoppie stocks.......Ball had his best game for us by far. Did nothing spectacular just won his tackles and played simple passes. Exactly what you want from a defensive midfielder. It was Shinnie who was utter cack on Saturday....
Nah, while Ball may have had his best game for us, that's not really much of a benchmark.
He fannied about and let the ball through him cheaply for their goal, some of his passing was woeful as well.
But, if I was to find a positive, he was better than Tansey was in his last game for us.
-
Was just wondering if anyone has any ideas for a temp replacement keeper given Lewis appears to be out for a while?
Hopefully you mean as a bench warmer. To take a loanee in to replace Rodgers would be a fair kick in the steens for him.
-
fucks sake, not another loan signing.
-
no shock there. Who in their right mind would want to work for those fucking idiots that run our game?
They really are a bunch of clueless inept knobbers.
The next poor bastards they approach will now know that they were second/third/fourth choice. They'll just end up letting the racist keep the job full time.
-
Aye, it'll be on the Red TV I expect, but I don't think it's televised.
I'd probably take in McGinn for Stewart and leave the rest the same (maybe May for Rooney perhaps).
Tricky one that, I'm really warming to Stewart. I'd ditch AoC from that holding midfield role in front of the defence and play a more attacking line up, but who to drop from McGinn, Stewart, Christie, Shinnie, McLean, GMS
-
Cunts have made a few signings but they've not played a competitive match together, so good time to go heid first into them.
More importantly though, I don't seem to see this advertised on the telly anywhere.
-
A pre-contract is an intention to sign, but I'm not quite sure how legally binding it is. I'm sure there have been cases in the past where a pre-contract hasn't been honoured.
Fuck, we keep the player and get some cash for him, sounds ideal. Gives us a bit of time to get a replacement sorted out.
A shrewd bit of business by the club I'd say.
-
Naismith loan deal to Hearts now confirmed. Definitely didn't see that one coming.
Also, the fact that he is on £50K a week is just insane - Norwich are still paying 40K and Naismith is allegedly covering some of the remaining 10K himself. Hearts must still be shelling out 5-8K on him though.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42717283
By covering some of it himself, you surely just mean taking a pay cut, or is it some kind of tax scam....huns are good(ish) at that kind of thing
-
Nigel Adkins has said that Hull haven't ended their interest in Scott McKenna yet.
Better come up with a lot more than £300k mate!
Nigel Adkins may want to give that prize cunt Warnock a shout and ask him if provincial scotch clubs like us are gagging for a cheap deal to be done.
-
He also signed a contract extension, so hopefully his development at morton helps prepare him for a better run in the first team next season.Frank Ross away to Morton on loan
Got to be some midfielders incoming though...surely.
-
Craig Storie's been punted.
-
Does the fact he told them to do one mean that all the issues with the side disappear?
I get that what you have posed here is a question, although I don't quite get why that is specifically aimed at my post because there's nothing in what I said that indicates that is what I meant.
But, since you asked, no, no it doesn't. Him telling the hun to ram it will not magically make his selections against celtic more attack minded and in their face. It wont see him drop Logan for a couple of games to sort himself out, it wont see McLean dropped to the bench or Tansey shipped to Formartine either, but it has hopefully given the team a bit of a lift. Lets see how it goes tonight if the games on.
Why don't you take a look at the results and performances and team selection over the last 6 weeks instead of happy clapping around here telling the rest of us what we must think of him because of this decision which he allowed to drag on to the detriment of the side?
allowed what to drag on? Do you think that Milne would have wanted him to shut down all speculation (and remember, it was just speculation) just incase the hun magically found a couple of million to give us for him?
The press release that would have said "I'm not interested in a job that I've not been offered" is pretty nonsensical.
As for happy clapping....don't be a fud.
-
The folk still questioning McInnes need to take a look at themselves. Thank fuck social media etc wasn't around 30 odd years ago.
The only difference between this recent pantomime and when legends like Willie Miller and Alex Ferguson both turned down moves to the hun was that all talks, discussions and offers were done in the proper way, by direct contact between clubs, not spun out like a third rate Aussie soap opera through every conceivable outlet.
Bottom line is he told them to do one, for that alone he deserves a hell of a fucking lot of respect.
-
it's incredibly fucking tiresome though isn't it.
I've not seen such underhand tactics since I got all my mates to tell Michelle Wright I fancied her in second year. It didn't work for me and I hope it doesn't work for sevco, although at least Michelle had the decency to say she wasn't interested from the outset.
-
i'd like to think that all of this is just rumor, but I'll still be half expecting the worst come Monday.
Strange how the rumor has really cranked up over this period where we play them twice in a row though.
Wouldn't surprise me if somebody else suddenly comes into the frame come Monday morning. Those cunts in the media have a lot to answer for.
-
I'd play this team:
Lewis
Logan Arni McKenna Shinnie
OConnor
Tansey McLean Wright
Maynard May
Tansey? You're clearly on the glue. That cunt needs to go and remind himself of the footballing basics, positioning, tackling, passing. If you can bear to rewatch that first half then look at his positioning, it was generally wandering around looking lost. I haven't seen such a disgraceful individual performance since Harold Ingulffson and I'm sure he only got a shottie because he won it in Icelandic raffle.
-
don't forget, he was initially due to be unveiled last Wednesday according to the usual glasgow hacks who are "in the know"
My feeling is that they're waitig to see if Norn Ireland get papped out of the play offs and then make a move for O'Neill.

Good read, where's that from?

I'm very proud to say that I didn't watch a minute of either game and I have no intention of watching a minute of any other pointless friendly fucking international.
An absolute waste of time.
