OxfordDon

What they need now is an inspirational manager - one with a record of defying seemingly insurmountable odds, of achieving the impossible, one who will gain such success and riches for the club that his very name will become legend amongst supporters. If they hurry and phone down to the front desk, he might not have had time to leave the building yet.

*cough* Just testing, you understand... well spotted.

Oot T'internet Oot 3-2: McGinn, Rooney to put us in control in 1st half, 2nd half Taylor sent off & penalty, dodgy goal from corner to make the last 15 minutes erse-clenching until sub Stockley pops up to score in the last 3 minutes.

100/1 x pie = 314/1

Loan Summary for w/e 18/2/17: Cammy Smith cuptied for St Mirren's Challenge Cup 4-1 win over Welsh side TNS, Storie started but had a poor match and was subbed at half time. Shankland had a goal rather harshly disallowed for a handball in the buildup in Morton's 2-2 draw with Falkirk, which also ended Danny Roger's run of clean sheets. Harvie played the full 90 for Dumbarton in their 2-2 draw with Ayr Utd while McKenna warmed the bench. In League 2, Thomas was also an used sub in Montrose's 1-1 draw with Edinburgh City.

Paddypower have him at 100/1 to become the next zombies manager

2004 just called and wants its news back. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Heemeyer It was indeed insane though.

All the more reason to stoke even the faintest rumours regarding him. If there's any journalists looking in, Coyle has just popped in to a number of reputable betting companies' odds for next zombie manager at 16/1 and climbing. That's higher than Ronald De Boer who is at 20/1. Pass it on.

sacked by Blackburn for being too shite even for Blackburn. Next Sevco manager? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39044853

His team did win, it was the one he gets paid to manage that lost.

He demonstrated quite clearly what he was signed for yesterday - to give us a Plan B when Plan A is not working. Not sure he should be viewed as a Rooney replacement or anything similar, that's not really his purpose.

FT 2-1 Dundee.

41 minutes played, Dundee 2 - Zombies 0 I like today.

12 minutes played, Dundee 1 - Zombies 0

Ideally still a point more than Sevco get today

I wonder how much Barton won on that result

Also, kudos to the BBC for their seamless editing together of the fan phone video with their own footage of his departure, very nice http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/scotland/38994202

Just heard McGoo being interviewed on BBC:

Nae worries min I dinnae go to the Oxford games, but the stadium is on the edge of Blackbird Leys, a less than salubrious estate just outside the ring road that encircles the city. It's also next to an out-of town shopping precinct. Here's a scorrie's view. If the Dons fancy moving there, i can put a word in.

I'm not being snide, and my reply wasn't even to your post, it was to Garlogie_granite's post. For the record, I have no great opinions about the stadium location either way - it's been over 10 years since i last set foot in Pittodrie and that was for a conference. I definitely agree with the need for a new one for the club's benefit, but personally i'd prefer if they built it in Oxford. Don't heckle the pedants or you'll get a 14-page putdown.

He looked pretty bothered in the video slim posted

*cough* Pedant here again. Cyclists are allowed to cycle on the road (unless it's a motorway), regardless of whether there is a cycle path. Whether they may want to is a different matter.

7-2? FFS McGhee, you can't even get all the goals in the correct net. Clown.
